Time to split, Paul.
Really are ye embarassing yerself? Have a read of what it actually means and further down then, good lad. Ye might understand https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hajduk
No one refers to them as Split. And i am not just on about Croatians.
Is Geysir a LOI fan now? You pluralised it...just bl8w him off and get it over with BS :P
But back to Dundalk I agree. Well done, I wonder will there be much celebrating in dundalk tonight![]()

I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Time to split, Paul.
Hello, hello? What's going on? What's all this shouting, we'll have no trouble here!

2011 is no longer a one hit wonder for the league. UEFA Group stage football is clearly a realistic target for LoI clubs.
Best of luck to Cork on Thursday night. Already a sellout. Massive ask. Hopefully they can progress further too.
Anyone know the prize money for the qualifying rounds? Every where I've looked only has the group stage onwards.
I'd imagine if they drew Celtic it would easily be a sell out at the Aviva, even if Dundalk managed to bring about 15,000 there.
Right people, someone needs to bring it up
Play Bate at home on the AstroTurf. 0-0.
Rent out a council grass pitch. 3-0
Let that be the end of it.
You arrive in the LOI in Europe thread every year like a bad smell Paul.![]()
roddy collins you're a flanker you're a flanker!
would I be correct in thinking that Dundalk are not that far off getting an automatic seeding for next year, that is if they win the league again? 4.94? Need Dodge for this
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Their club co-efficient is up to 4.6 something and up a whopping 100 places. Now I'm not sure if the bonus for EL Group Stage(2 points) is added to that or will Bert wait until after CL/EL groups are resolved. With 8 games left, you hope that their co-efficient would increase enough to guarantee that they are seeded I'm QR2 should they win the League. Would want minimum of 5 points to be in with a chance of that, based on this years' seedings.
in case you missed it
looking back at that, sun in their eyes in first half, peeing rain late second, got to love Irish weather
That as it may be Stu. The issue at hand was not that Paul was right but that he bothered to "correct" geysir so needlessly on this great night for LOI football.
He reminds me of a guy I grew up with that had all these useless facts about stuff that derailed conversations and sent things off other tangents like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you'd say.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Best second half performance in Europe I have seen from an Irish side.O'Donnell was immense..
Cmon Cork go for it.
The 2 points are already added. They aren't far off, and are already seeded for the EL First round which we hope to put them in yet. If they win the next round and reach the CL group stages they would almost certainly be seeded.
In the group stages wins and draws are worth 2 and 1 points respectively to the club so even a draw in the EL would give them a chance, and a win would probably be enough.
What a joyous night to be a League of Ireland fan.
This is huge.
I wonder what's the chance of them strengthening the squad somewhat now? Richie Towell back on loan? Aiden McGeady as mentioned above, would he come on loan? Stiliyan Petrov wasn't offered a contract by Aston Villa. Stephen Hunt still has no club. Is that the sort of player they would look to? 6.5 million is a lot of money to blow on a few players..
A goalkeeper is needed there for definite.

Well if you look at this season 5.400 was the cut off point for seeding in the 2nd qualifying round. And then 24.720 for the 3rd (round just qualified from).

Lastest team ranking has Dundalk up to 4.640. I assume that includes tonight's results.

I'm too long out of the loop to remember exactly but I think only actually winning and drawing matches could boost that further? Plus then there is bonus points for reaching CL/Europa Group stages and subsequent rounds.
Not inconceivable now that there could be an LOI team in the EL and CL group stages at the same time now.
You've got no fans.
