Has the premier Division team ever lost one of these? Don't think so...

**Poor Student** · 05/11/2005, 10:23 AM

Kilkenny beat Waterford on agg 2-0 in 2000.

**Dodge** · 05/11/2005, 10:51 AM

Waterford, eh?

**SPXcyan** · 05/11/2005, 11:05 AM

I remember that game!!! we should have scored that penalti but did'nt...was some crowd at that!!! always are good crowds at these play-offs!!

**Dodge** · 05/11/2005, 11:07 AM

If Rovers are onvolved in this years there'll be ahuge crowd. Loads of pats, bohs, shels fan etc hoping to see them go down...

**SPXcyan** · 05/11/2005, 11:08 AM

I look forward to that

**Rory H** · 05/11/2005, 11:08 AM

the premier division team will win...1st division is rubbish

harsh but fair...they might struggle a bit away but should win it easy at home...unless of course its sligo rovers..which i doubt it wil be

This is source material, I didn't know if you wanted this or rumour and conjecture. You didn't specify.

**Dodge** · 05/11/2005, 11:57 AM

Cheers, wanted the facts. Could do the rumour/conjecture thing myself...

**Passive** · 05/11/2005, 12:06 PM

Anyone know what dates the play-offs will be played for. Thinking of cancelling my holiday in late November.

**Passive** · 05/11/2005, 12:09 PM

Clearly, that should read, "Anyone know what dates the play-offs will be played on?"

We were really close a couple of seasons ago...2-0 up v Drogheda then lost 3-2 after AET and had 2 goals disallowed

.Alan Kelly-******!

One of the best nights of my life

At ireland V France in france we were wearing our drogs jerseys and some galway lads were wearing theirs and we kept on bumping into them which was going through their heads as they were still sick over it

**Conor H** · 05/11/2005, 2:07 PM

Played on 22nd and 25th of November (a Tuesday and a Friday) and played for on Friday 18th in Belfield I fear.

With Dublin winning in Cobh, they are a point behind with better goal difference and two games left.

Looks increasingly-like we could have Rovers v Dublin/Roddy v Rocky all over again. That'd be worth seeing!
