Anyone going from Dublin and back that night for this that has a space in his/her car? Coz I'd appreciate a lift, petrol money would be provided.

it would be worth it de town when you see who is taking part in the penalty shootout against Athlone town fans at half time!!

Why didn't I get the call? Considering I scored a hattrick up in Belfield a few years back in the half time match!

last nights poor result keeps up our crap record against Athlone town in the league cup.. they beat us in 2007,2009 and last nite in Lissywollen.. two yrs ago we lost in the first round to Galway.. you have to go back to 2006 for the last time we got past the first round of the league cup when we beat mayo league 4-0 at home and lost to derry city away..
