Many travelling up for this one?
Also can someone inform Live 95FM that kick off is 7.30pm and not 7pm as they said on their sports bulletin this morning.
Shhhhh, we're trying to get up there as early as possible so we can hit the bottle bar. Should have some form of bus by tonight (sc members keep an eye on your phone for txts) so I reckon the usual 30+Quote:

It is a sand based pitch with built in drainage under it. If you get 2 hours dry weather all the water drains from it. During the really dry weather we have to put sprinlers on it for two days before matches to take the hardness out of it>Quote:

So definately going ahead tonight?
As I said the pitch was fine when I spoke to the groundsman.Quote:

Tommy went off injured, anyone got any update on this?
They helped for all 3 goals
I am uploading highlights at the moment
Highlights now available on www.athlonetowntv.com and www.athlonetownfc.ie

On the game that is easily the worst Athlone team I have ever seen a farce of a joke of an embaressment of a football team.
On an aside I realise Athlone Town FC is nowadays a mere husk of a once fairly decent football club but is there really any need to invite every skobie from the surrounding parishes to crawl on their bellies to the ground in an effort to boost a pathetic attendance which despite the presence of what seemed like at least 25,000 chav stereotypes still managed to barely scrape over the 100 mark??
FFS, sort your club out.
I think Hogan Park/UL and three nights a week are your answers there.Quote:

The likes of you can just call in Thomas, that might be a bit simpler for you!

Yeah, he played in the friendly v Pike, and v Athlone away the following week.Quote:
