    Thumbs up Thumbing...

    Two City fans need a lift back down to Cork on Friday night after the game.

    We were sorted for accomodation as back-up if NORTHOFTHELEE'S bus fell through (as has happened) but unfortunately our accomodation has gone belly up as well.

    If we can get a lift down, we'll get the train up on Friday afternoon.

    Please PM me if anyone can help us out.

    Cheers.

    John.

    I was going to offer you a place to stay but just remembered I'm going to Manchester for the weekend.
    Maybe you could contact the club as there may be adults driving who don't access the Internet?

    Or ye could do the old Fonzi method.

    After the match ye head towards town in Dublin. Get some munch, a few pints etc. Then head to one of the all night internet gaffs. You can get all night access for €10. Just play lan games, do internet stuff, use keyboard as a pillow. Places are central, warm, secure and have vending machines. You'll be knackered the next day but sure ye'll be back in yer beds in Cork by 10:30 on Saturday morning.
    Oh no not them again

    Have done that before but in Sydney and for some weird reason I wouldn't contemplate doing the same in Dublin. I genuinely have some indent fear about the place. I got the fright of my life when a junky I encountered on Dame Street abused me for not giving him a euro after coming in to the city centre from a Pats game. Yes I know - sad.

    Anyway, I'm still drawing a blank regarding a lift back to Cork. I really deplore the idea of staying longer than 3 or 4 hours in that dump. Can anyone help? Let it be on all of your consciences - I'm going and ain't nothing stopping me! I'll end up taking my chances waiting outside Busaras for the first bus home and some diseased Dub will bite my nads off while I sleep and I hope you'll all be very happy!!

    JOHN

    PS Thanks Peadar for the good intentions!

    Ask around at the game aswell ... might be someone there that could help you out with a lift or a place ot sleep.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
