With all due respect this game shouldnt be televised live. Better if it was live from Belfield IMO.

It could be, Belfield's available.Quote:

I tried changing it to "Club whose fans' touchiness over their name is counterproductive" but that seems to be too long.Quote:

On topic - don't know. Going to try to get together a few anyways. Aim for 20 in a group I suppose.
Monday nights don't suit me as I have a commitment that evening.
I normally never miss an away game with Rovers but I probably will have to this time unfortunately. Although ...If they don't close the gates till half-time, and it's an 8 p.m. kick-off, I might be able to make some of it.
You realise if you said nothing it'd probably just go away, don't you?Quote:

Just cause the Brits think it's a good idea doesn't mean it necessarily is one.Quote:

Bray brought 35-odd to Tolka, UCD will probably bring (a lot) less than 20.Quote:

I couldn't give a toss what Bray brought.Quote:
