    Letterkenny Rovers?

    Heard a strong rumour that we're down there next weekend for a post-coital European kickaround.

    Who are they? Do they exist?

    Yep, they exist alright. Play in the Ulster Senior League. AFAIK, they play at Dry Arch Park, groundsharing with Bonagee United.

    Dry Arch Park is just as you come into the town on the Derry side. You'll notice the Dry Arch roundabout as the first thing in the town (it's got 2 metal statues things in the middle of it). It's about a 10 minute walk from the town centre.

    Letterkenny Rovers play at LECK VIEW PARK. It's down beside the Cinema... Turn left at the second roundabout and follow that road til you come to the cinema. There's a wee lane to your left which takes you to the pitch.

    Game could be played at Bonagee so check the venue first...

    Well, we're taking a busload up and I know one other club also running a bus.

    That's disregarding the 20-odd other clubs and individuals/group who travel by car.

    Around 800 at a friendly tonight, so maybe 4-500

    I stayed up in Churchill last year about ten west of Letterkenny.

    Is Diamond Park on the same road?

    If you are staying in Churchill (whatever you're into ) go to Kilmacrennan then head for Letterkenny but turn left at the statoil half way to Letterkenny.
