Yes but we are are getting extra revenue of some sort from the Cup Final. Galway are getting extra revenue as they will have an additional home game. UCD would not be getting extra revenue if their season was extended due to a home game being postponed.

It'd be inconvenient, but I imagine the club would just pay 16 players for the week. I can't see them folding over a couple of grand.

We've a pitch inspection at 3 apparently, and another one at 5 if needed.

I'm a little surprised the pitch is expected to be playable. The drainage there must be better than I thought.

**pineapple stu** · 25/10/2011, 2:02 PM

There's a serious drainage system in place, I think. I recall Dick defending it when Bald Student pointed out that gravity makes Bowls bad when it rains.

I'm not saying ye'd fold whatsoever but I was just replying to the initial comments where people were saying why don't they just play it next week

Pitch passes inspection

Not out of the blue though. Some sort of pun unintended, but claimed all the same.

That's a good point well made.

**passerrby** · 25/10/2011, 6:06 PM

Heard on the radio this morning that the bowl holds 800 seated and 1500 standing is that correct

The "implement" that was thrown onto the pitch earlier in the match looked like it was a pencil !! Bloody UCD Schooligans

Must be an awful flu going around Dublin. The poor Shams fans, about to win the league, can't even make any noise.

**El-Pietro** · 25/10/2011, 7:27 PM

there goes my accumulator anyway. Was waiting on a Rovers 3 (or more) goal win to finish off a very ambitious bet

I was caught mid-post there & had to edit

I was about to say was that there was hope for the bet,not now

!! 1-1

**Jofspring** · 25/10/2011, 7:37 PM

About 4 mins of singing from the Shams fans then quiet again.

Couldn't help laughing at the 10 UCD fans celebrating ha

It might have been a cocktail umbrella.

Well done, I was in 'Hope-they-wrap-it-up-and-might-go-easy-on-us-Friday-night' mode
