QuoteThey can f*** off home if that's the case.
Heard Drury is pushing Tallaght for the friendly, but RM's people aren't happy with the stadium or opposition and are trying to organise a representative game or ship a British team over.
A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.

The beatings will continue until morale improves!
Ronaldo to make his debut in Tallaght then.

How many ticket will go on sale for this and will season ticket holders get first option on tickets?
There's no way P1 will have this game in Tallaght with it only having a 3,300 capacity.. The new stand won't be open until September according to the other thread.
Don't know why but I'm guessing 3300.

True.
Pity they won't do it for the league.

Wow so this guy wasn't kidding?, last time i visited this thread was when their was only 1 page.
Its still only a rumour, and nothing has been confirmed (regarding the game)
It was always known that Madrid were having a training camp in Ireland

I have it from a farily good source that if it goes ahead they're looking at €50 a ticket, which would make sense if they put in temporary seats as I remember someone saying recently that to cover the cost of hiring the seats for a game tickets would have to be €30 a head, throw in the Madrid fee and hey presto. Ronaldo would want to be making an appearance at that price, considering they'll be missing all the internationals involved in the Confederations cup.
As it'll be organised by Platinum One there'd be no gurantee of any favours for season ticket holders either.
Tallaght Stadium Regular
No reason why it couldnt be organised that Rovers couldnt agree to take say 2500 of the tickets up front and offer one to each season ticket holder and have a few hundred left over to sell to sponsors or the players etc.
Rovers sell 2500.
Ticketmaster sell 5000.
Then corp tkts sold thru the usual channels.
Easy peasy ...

Presumably if Tallaght is not economically viable( insufficiently obscenely profitable) and RDS is unavailable, Platinum might look at a Thomond Park grudge re match v Limerick?
BUT!! BUT!! It's the best stadium, with the bestest facilities in Ireland & the UK.
No, it's 3,500 seater stadium with the best facilities in Ireland bar Croke Park and Thomand Park. Idiot...
Seems to be a lot of negativity surrounding Rovers and the stadium on the forum. Strange as it has been the most positive thing to happen in the league this year. I'd be absolutely delighted if Derry or Sligo for example got a new stadium. It raises the profile of the LoI in general.
Regarding the Real Madrid match, it would be completely unfeesable financially to hold it without temporary seating or the East Stand completed.
