Contentious clash given afternoon start

June 2, 2004

The meeting of fierce Dublin rivals Shamrock Rovers and Bohemians, originally pencilled in for Friday night week, June 11th, has been refixed for the following Saturday afternoon with a 2.30pm kick-off at Dalymount Park.

Bet ya they wreck it, if they get into it. Also why 2.30, that gives plenty of time to visit the bars before the game. I thought it was the objective to stop people going to the pub before the game. I say very few locked at the last rovers game!!!!

I say your best chance is hope for a heat wave .... all the casuals/ultras might get heat stroke and pan out all over then place and not start anything at all.
