it cant really be an advantage to the dundalk lads as every second week they have to play on a ''normal'' pitch its a funny complaint to have consider playing on differing surfaces week in week out is a disadvantage for them is it?sure every pitch at every club is different..
Shocked to hear that Philly wasnt great last nite as he has been fantastic for us lately. He has set up a lot of goals and has banged in a few so far this season too. He is only back from an injury 2 weeks now and we will be expecting big things off him for the rest of the season.Originally Posted by micls

We have people at both games if that's of use. 1-1 in Merv, half time

Your 16,875 posts seem to indicate that "ill informed" internet posts might be a bigger issue for you. Does this make you defensive by your own definition?
Nope, as above I've no issue with what ill informed people think of me, or my posts
Last minute equaliser for Salthill
Athlone 2-0 up, nearly over in that one
Another clean sheet for Beno.
Its the same as the Moscow surface and if that wasn't up to standards then a champs league final would never be allowed on it.
Doing brilliant for Athlone this season.

We scored some goals!!
Beno made a great save with an outstretched leg in the first half.
We won the penalty within 30 seconds of the start. Poor stuttered effort from Aussie, and Ritchie O'Hanlon hit the post from the rebound. Looked like it was going to be another one of those nights.
Good to see Robbie Farrell with his first of the season after taking a bit of flack due to lack of goals. Should have had another two with great headers from Noel McGee and Robbie Benson.
Up to joint-4th now.

Didnt they have to put grass on it for that game.
Not too sure maybe they did but they do play International matches on it at times.
I don't think they had to. But yes, they did replace the surface for the final. But his point remains, it hosts Champions League and International matches, it's clearly a suitable surface.

Plastic pitches are fine, biggest problem is the pass has to be accurate and your touch has to be perfect. If none of the those 2 happen the ball is gone.
Pro players shouldnt have a problem with it.
If any LOI club does they can rent it out and train on it the night before a game
5-0
He should never have come for it through a congested area.
I saw he was impeded but couldn't tell if it was one of our players or a Monaghan player.
