    Don't suppose that if Birmingham get knocked out of the FA cup early on that they might come over for a midweek game seeing as we have such strong ties now with the club

    Premier teams won't play each other. We've played Sligo last 3 years I think but not next year...

    not unless an english team send over there reserves or youth team but that would cost the club more money than it would be worth especially when playing an irish team would be a higher standard than playing a reserve team from the english leaugue 1 or 2

    If any of you still have the "programme" from the Lincoln game, you'll see that their manager invited Rovers over to play them in England next year. Anyone fancy travelling to that one?

    Yeah.

    We should be playing a few bigger teams in fairness though. I mean, no offence to Distillery, Galway or Harps but, we're not really testing how we will do in the Premier by playing teams like this. Cliftonville are the only team there that will give us a true measure of how we can perform against the "big teams" in my opinion.

    Eh, I said big teams. Playing Burton matches to about the same as playing Harps/Galway.
