    ya but i think his point was being a rovers fan it wouldn't be a case of nice police helping a nice wayward little irishman.

    that's very decent tho not many or any police force would do that.

    I assume Dodge's mate was linguistically challenged, anybody that helpless and naturally incoherent should be kept off the streets for their own safety.

    A good week for the LOI. Now we know that clubs from lesser ranked leagues can be dispatched with a bit of effort. Time will tell if the industrious LOI can surpass the success rate of the League of Iceland (whose clubs are by now renowned for their diligent passing game) with their 5 wins and a draw already under the belt.

    Why wouldn't it be?
    False hope is worse than no hope. Ask Sligo.

    Presumably a Shamrock Rovers fan would be running at the police waving an umbrella in a threatening manner.

    On the contrary I was the centre of attention when I dressed up like Hitler walking through Copenhagen. Everyone seemed to be looking at me. Never felt more loved in my life.

    You know, there could be something in this. I think I'll live out my fantasy of dressing in a wee black bowler, wrapping an orange sash around me and march down O'connell St with an umbrella. Oh wait....

    Good few of us heading to Ukraine via Rzeszów. €380 flights. Few hours on a bus/train. Cheap flights compared to bloody Iceland. We get the worst European draws travel wise!

    Don't forget the nice black suit and white shirt. Necessary with any work uniform.

    Right it ended 4-2 to Vorskla.

    Dear Paul Cook,

    Main threats:
    Markoski – left sided forward. Very skilful – long ball to back post for 2nd goal perfect. I’m not sure what you can do to stop him.
    Dalko: playmaker middle of park Richie Ryan needs to be all over him like a bad suit.
    Zakarluchka: very strong MF – took the ball down and flicked it over the defence to set up the first goal (like a fitter N’Do)
    Bezus: number 9 came on as a sub – the commentators were going on about him being the next big thang – very aggressive – peeled off from a group of six in the box to score the third goal at the back post.

    Good news. They can be got at from set pieces. Terrible terrible defending for both goals conceded. First one – centre halves fell asleep and a 5 foot nothing midfielder got in between them to head it in.
    Goalie and the centre halves totally amateur on a corner – big centre half from Metallurg scored – free header almost.

    They are very skilful and it will be a real indicator of Sligo’s skill to see if they can match them.
    They are terrible on set pieces, though. N’Do crosses, Blinkhorn flicks it on, Doyle back post…away goal.

    Yours, B2bW

    PS. The pitch is huge and it’s going to be very hot.

    Dear Pete Mahon…I’m going to watch the Karpaty match now…

    Kazachstan is far enough, but European football is all about travel and adventure. You can visit Wales or Holland anytime.
