It would be mad this is the FAI cup semi final + the u21's are playing on the pitch on Monday night , the night before the replay, we'd better hope its not raining or the pitch will be poor for Tuesday ...

Just saw a photo of the under 19s squad taken today and Bolger wasn't in it. The only player in the squad missing.

500. Went on sale to season ticket holders at 10am, one per season ticket and all gone by 3pm

They are playing hardball now over a request for more

We aren't playing hardball. You're fans took a sh*t in the stand during the ea sports cup final, part of the away section will be closed on Tuesday to try stop yous from doing it again.

I did hint at this earlier in the thread, but as usual the dundalk fans were in denial. Glad to see the club and the council taking a stand.

That's quite the revelation, strange it's only coming to light now. That kind of thing I would have thought would be widely reported and talked about even among Dundalk fans! Mad that nobody seen it either, the away section was packed.

Hopefully not the section which includes the toilets as the plan could backfire spectacularly!

Reports that Rovers releasing 200 additional away tickets. The match will obviously not sell out, bigger stadium, makes sense really to try and get as big a crowd as possible in the ground.

**RathfarnhamHoop** · 05/10/2017, 9:58 PM

Careful now, all dundalk fans and players are saints dont you know, never put a foot wrong. Live at Oriel won't stand for this sort of deflection.
I've noticed the lack of any mention of dylan connelly's celebration towards the rovers fans too, I remember Trevor Clarke getting torn to shreds on this site for doing the same thing earlier in the season.

**oriel** · 05/10/2017, 10:04 PM

Down with that sort of thing.

**Asterix** · 05/10/2017, 10:06 PM

And the steward that stood in front of the away end making ****** gestures that had to be removed by the guards.

**MattB11** · 05/10/2017, 10:12 PM

Will the replay be televised?

Probably depends on how many games rte still need to show. Given all thats going on around it youd imagine it would be on tv though

Can't remember the last time they showed a cup semi final replay. Granted there's usually not as much between the first and second games as there is this time.

Was other stewards actually no Gardai entered the pitch - Do you really think the Garda� would bother?? The steward was being a complete tosser himself, lets hope he wont be back.

As for the rogue turd in Tallaght, dont you think it have had some comment passed before now. Thought it was only Drogs in Sligo that got up to that messing.

Not likely, but it might be covered on crime call the way things are going on here..........

**placid casual** · 06/10/2017, 9:15 AM

More likely Jackanory.

I'm showing my age there, aren't I..

Depends on whether there's a revolution during it. If so, it will not be televised.

The one before the game was removed by other stewards, the one in the second half got removed by the guards.
