The other clubs named for pre-season were local sides, Arrow Harps, Ballymote Celtic and Real Tubber. Longford Town is an away fixture. I didn't hear we had Derry, but it would be nice to have them in the Showgrounds.
I have scattered my dreams underneath your feet, tread carefully, cos it's my dreams you walk on.
should be a good laugh up in gurteen... just hope none of our new signing d get injured by some 40 year old centre half and end up with a broken leg... here to a few pints in the humble spud after...?
