good point. he clearly used it as an excuse for all the goals we conceeded.... oh waitOriginally Posted by oriel
the fact he may have said (no quote) a one liner without analysing it before hand and not appreciating the ramifications it would have for him on foot.ie further go to show the anarchy that is taking place at the moment. What was Bucko thinking , was he thinking ? clearly not.
Bucko OUT !!!!!

@Keith_Fahey: Reason for not playing Dundalks astro last wk down to very serious hip surgery i invested in last yr.. I cant play on that surface anymore
@Keith_Fahey: Reason i had the surgery was to get another few yrs playing football.. #simples
Surely biting dust is what old Queen CDs do?
Hello, hello? What's going on? What's all this shouting, we'll have no trouble here!
- E Tattsyrup.
Can't we just break free from these silly puns.
Agree. We need to dive headlong into the matter at hand. I'm going slightly mad at these puns; somebody save me from them.
Now I'm here though, I can't see anything wrong with Fahey's decision. He just wants to play the game as long as he can. Don't stop him now.
I agree too! I hope more players follow Fahey's example.
Anyone know when he last played on Oriel?
Who told him that it was astro anyway?
Can you express that sentiment in the form of a Queen pun?
Poor Keith, he's just a poor boy from a poor family, save him his life from this monstrosity
Galactico's lol
We have what we have, inherited from the previous regimes who thought it was a good idea at the time. To be honest with the pitch I would love to see it torn up. These conversations are becoming a bore now and while there is no real hardcore evidence to say that the pitch causes any serious injury or the best still is the "unnatural bounce" which is absurd because a balls bounce is dictated by the speed and spin on the ball in which it bounces. I have said it before that no other pitch in the country is put through a more rigorous testing than oriel park but time and time again it is still criticised.
Although we are made to play in dalymount with knee height grass. Last month we had to pay in tallaght were the pitch was waterlogged and was pretty dangerous as a result. United park was quite bald in place and the slope in the Brandwell no one seems to mention.
The pitch isn't probably going to be changed anytime soon. For a number of factors is that there are probably more pursuing concerns in oriel and we can't afford anything what it would cost to revert back to grass.
I don't want to get dragged into a debate on the pitch because, like you, I find it boring, but I think it's worth pointing out that this is not true. Leaving Cert applied maths shows* that the elasticity, e, of a surface (e.g. the Oriel Park pitch) absolutely affects an object's (e.g. a ball) bounce.
* - well, it did show this when I sat the Leaving Cert. Nowadays, it probably asks you to explain the difference between the C and C/E buttons on a calculator.
Ooh applied maths for Leaving Cert is it? Nerd.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Gotta inject some manner of fact into this debate!
You can prove anything with facts.

Have you seen internet forums lately?
You'd know there were LOI games this week that's for sure. A whole week without any kind of football.

2 weeks for Keith Fahey
Do all grass pitches have the same "elasticity" and all grass pitches bounces have the same affect on an objects bounce?
Didnt think so
Not even worth debating
Nothing to do with my post.
I was just correcting jinxy when he said bounce is solely dependent on a ball's speed and spin.
Dont forget the pressure at which the ball is inflated influencing the surface area meetind the pitch
