Quite a few midweek fixtures again. Poor form.
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
Cork City vs Pats most likely to kick off the season on TV.
Home to Rovers, Bohs, Cork and Dundalk twice, though two trips up to Derry.
Monday games at home to Bohs and Dundalk, and one away to UCD.
Last game at home to Bray, pity!
Celebrating 130 Years of Athlone Town Football Club - Pride of the Midlands Since 1887
I was anticipating Athlone nice and early for Rovers and they're they are. Looking forward to that trip. The 2 week mid-season break starts a day after the World Cup begins. In 2010 it was 2-and-a-half weeks and started before kick off in South Africa, doesn't matter too much when Ireland aren't in it I suppose.

UCD away on a monday night. Oh god. Cant imagine too many will travel to that haha
Athlone Town AFC 1887-2017
Disappointing to see the annual Sligo vs Shamrock Rovers last day of the season fixture removed. Maybe the FAI have no faith in Croly either to provide them with a title decider on the final weekend!
Bray's Fixture list looks very similar to last season.
St. Pats, Derry, Dundalk and Sligo all at home twice.
Away twice to Shams, Bohs, Cork and Drogeda.
Any other club notice the same. I'd image that you should be away twice to a team you played twice at home the previous season to give some balance where it's possible.
2013 was a reverse of 2012. So 2015 will be a reverse of 2014
I suppose they have to mix it up slightly for those 2 year cycles but they all even themselves out

Lads, yous know you can't talk about that particular team on here.
Whoever they are went to an awful lot of trouble stopping us going up only for the whole lot to fall apart, if reports are true!
Sure we'll be up anyway if they do fall apart. In theory. Sounds like we're signing Shane O'Connor from them too if Dempsey is to be believed.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
More great stuff from Conor Meade about Cobh. From his twitter: Such a shame to hear d carry on up in ramblers. A manager gettin paid n not giving a f.Club will be gone nx season cos of d dopes up dare
