Drogheda announce Leeds friendly
February 17, 2005
Drogheda United will meet English Coca-Cola Championship side
Leeds United in a charity friendly on Sunday March 20th, on the
same weekend that Paul Doolin’s side begin their 2005 eircom
League Premier Division campaign.
The first round of eircom League fixtures, which will be confirmed
at the league’s AGM in Cork this weekend, will take place between
March 17th and 20th.
And Drogheda’s busy opening weekend will continue with the high-
profile visit of Leeds for a friendly in aid of the Gary Kelly Cancer
Trust.
Former Irish international Kelly himself will be with the Leeds team
for the game in his native town.
The match will kick off a bumper afternoon for sports lovers in the
town – the friendly kicks off at 12 noon to facilitate those who
want to attend that afternoon’s Gaelic football NFL clash between
neighbours Louth and Meath.
