That only leaves a possibility of Raul, Ronaldo, Van Nistelrooy (if he's fit and still there), Robben (if he's still there), Huntelaar....Originally Posted by passinginterest
I'm still not convinced of who they'll pick, but I won't care..
The Model Club
Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
well some Rovers fans have every right to complain about the price, and it'll cost a dad €120 to bring his son to a Rovers game.
But they're the only people who can complain about it, and none of them are (at least on here). its nothing to do with the rest of us

Got my 8 this morning
I assume you got 4x2 ?Got my 8 this morning
Got two myself.
Booking fee is a biatch 9.60
"Football is a game you play with your brain".
Reports of tickets now being allocated for North Stand, so it looks like the main stand is totally sold out already by season ticket holders taking up their allocated two tickets.

I see Rovers' chairman Jonathon Roche is quoted in the Irish Times today as saying that the price is nothing to do with Rovers and they're just getting a flat fee for the game. Fintan Drury of Platinum One is also quoted as saying he and his company would have preferred to bring Madrid to Croke Park or the RDS but they weren't available so putting seats into Tallaght was the next best option. I wonder would Rovers have been the opposition if it wasn't being played in Tallaght?.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Jesus the bitterness doesn`t end does it.Dont worry I`m sure Longford and Flancare were next on this long list
I thought it might come across as though I was begrudging Rovers. I wasn't actually, I don't really care as Rovers don't particularly affect us these days!. I was genuinely curious as to who the opposition would be if it wasn't in Tallaght?. The rest was all relevant information given the discussion about ticket prices.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Maybe, maybe not but who cares now? No suprise that Bohs in a dump like Dalymount was not even on the radar of platinum one when they were organising this despite the fact Dalymount has 8000 seats and room to put another few thousand temporary seats in the car park.
I'm sure we would have been.
You see, Flancare is an actual stadium, whereas Rovers have a stand, a nice one, but it still is 1 stand!
Ye family ticket 4 x 2
Settle down Rovers fans, check Longfordian's previou posts. One of the few genuine posters around here. He was simply asking a question, hy you so defensive about it?

One of the main factors would have been the small matter of Bohs first games in the Champions League being played either side of the date set aside for the Real Madrid match.
As for Longfordian's questions - you can assume that it may have been Celtic or a large English club for a game in Croke Park (which would be a non-starter due to the GAA fixtures going on around it), the RDS might have been either Rovers or as people have suggested - a League XI.
All moot points really - as this is now all happening to P1's Plan A
Kom Igen, FCK...
My Spanish lecturer is a big Rovers fan. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he was the one who did that.
On the price, €60 seems like an awful lot and, if anything, it makes me more sceptical of the Platinum One shower. They just seem to be out to line their pockets.

Yo te quiero, mi querida. Sin tus besos, yo soy nada.
Abri o portão de ouro, da maquina do tempo.
Mi mamá me hizo guapo, listo y antimadridista.
IN fairness what have they ever done to make you think otherwise?

I got fecking North stand ones and I got them about 12ish this morning, I think it was randomly giving North stand and main stand, I thing it gave me main stand ones first but I thought it might be possible to pick different ones of a seating plan of some sort and started again, I thought it gave me the same ones and only noticed the North stand bit after I paid. I suppose they'll have to do, but would have been nice to be in the main stand.
Looking forward to it now. Seemed to be a big crowd at the game tonight too and a lot were newbies obviously tempted in by the Madrid hype, no doubt it'll sell out quickly Monday.

Tallaght Stadium Regular
Anyone who pays €60 to see a meaningless game like this is crazy.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
In fairness it's not too often Madrid play a game on your doorstep even if it is meaningless. I could understand anyone whose a bit tight for cash not going, from my own viewpoint I'm not going to any big gigs or events this year and I'm not overly hard up at the moment so I reckon as a one off event it's just about worth it.

Platinum One are a commercial organisation, and therefore have a right (obligation?) to attempt to make a profit on their endeavours (I know this is an alien concept within the LOI fraternity).
