some of the lads actually made it out to the ground- they said it was playable at 730.
When the game was called off at 6.30, it probably was unplayable but when we got to the ground at 7.30 it had cleared a fair bit. IMO it could have been played.
Surely if the ref is going to call the game off so late (ie. an hour before KO) then he could have waited til just before KO? Or even put it back an hour? No?
Lots of people were wondering why the game could not have been played today. Most City supporters were staying the night anyway. Perhaps the fact that the City team stayed in Roosky on the Friday night meant they couldn't afford a night in Longford?
Just a disaster all-round anyway!
Eanna ... i was thinking the same ... it lifted soon after it was called off, the team scarpered though the minute it was called off, so it wasn't going ahead anyway if they tried, and it was fine this morning as well, could have played it then, even though i was in a bad state
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
What will a little trip up to Longford cost us. The team stayed up there on Friday night, players had to get off work early, they had to pay for accomadation, meals and such expenses.
Will there be any kind of refund to City??
Oh no not them again

Playable
I think the ref was supposed to be Stacey? Whoever he was anyway he fecked up. He may have called the match off when the fog was thick but by 7.15-7.30 with only 2 floodlights on at the entrance side could see from corner flag to corner flag.
Whatever about the saturday night ****up its beyond me why the match couldn't have been played on sunday afternoon!
should have been played sunday. forget city, refund the supporters! we're all broke!
What about next saturday for the re-arranged game? Not as if either of us are still in the cup.....
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
i heard it would prob be on next week alright. i'll be back!
I was under the impression that if a match was called off less than six hours before kick off the traveling was entitled to some form of compo?
Maybe it'd just a UEFA rule, but did a German team get their traveling expenses refunded when they went to play Juva and the match was fogged off.
Them Longford fellas should have put a retractiable roof on that Stadium, just to finish it all off.
Oh no not them again
compensate the fans! we stayed over and spent all out money!
