ah yes but Marty did make The Pats game in Inchicore, an away game, we (apart from the cup final) have never made a Longford away game iirc.

thats a very interestin friendly.. a trip away there may be order.. glad gough is in charge with all these away trips for friendlies...

Good for the fans alright. Home club pays for the refs too which is welcome from the club point of view though I suppose you have to pay for travel etc so it probably works out much the same.
