first preseason friendly announced

[Longfordian]

Travel down there < Match Officials at home?

Good point actually there'd probably be little in the difference given the cost of officials when a Premier Division team is involved. At least Sligo might bring a few with them.

[outspoken]

It's a great point alright, your looking at at least 700-800 euro for match officials but you'd be hoping to get at least 100 people in the gate but then with electricity costs etc it prob does work out cheaper to play away amazing really, saying that I hope it's at home (:

[El-Pietro]

Rumour has it we're playing Cork in a friendly too. Don't know if that's in Longford or Cork but I'd guess at Longford as we've only one home friendly so far and I can't see us as "a poor little First Division club" forking out for the travel down there!

please let this by on a Friday night!

[Acornvilla]

please let this by on a Friday night!

Hopefully

It seems that Cork game is provisionally fixed for Clonmel on the 11th February. I guess Clonmel is handier for travelling back to Dublin/Kildare for most of our lads. Don't know who'll be paying for the officials mind you, maybe they'll do it 50/50?

Tallanted any idea who town subs were last night? were there many people at it? I assume there were proper officials at it..

also any idea why we have so many away friendlies.. heard last night that We couldnt play Newbridge Town in the end so Sacred Heart took their place..

[Longfordian]

I'd imagine most friendlies are away due to the cost of the officials.
