    Rovers Vs. U.C.D.

    Forget about Shels, UCD deserve a whooping after embarassing us in Dublin. They've been playing poor lately and although we haven't beaten them in a good few years(I think?), we should be expected to win this easily.
    ----------------
    Team:

    O'Hara(if fit),

    Foy, McNamara, McKenzie, Peers,

    Hughes, O'Grady, Turner, Cash,

    Mansaram, McT(if fit, if not then Bellew)

    ----------------
    I picked Bellew cos I really don't think Judge is good enough. He's been really lazy of late and never runs for the ball. Also, should easily have scored in that chance with Shels and fired a weak shot in the end. Cash has to play, looked great against Shels but unless Hughes is injured, he shouldn't be dropped either. Faz should lose his spot to fit him in.

    That's closed now, unless you mean Harloes across the road?.

    Hargadons in O'Connell street(main street in Sligo) is closed down. Harloes is a pub across the road from the Showgies, it's now called Mooney's and is open.

    I'm trying to compare prices between bus and train. Can't seem to find train prices online. Any Sligo lads know the price of a return ticket to Dublin?

    Not sure on Fridays but it cost me about €32 when I went on the train for the Bray match. Twas a Sunday though.

    Does Sunday make a difference in price? That'd be only €11 more than a student return on the bus.

    Think it's dearer at weekends isn't it? Also, if you have a special student rail card it's cheaper, I didn't.

    I don't either. Might get the train if that's the prices we're talking about. Cheers Sligoman.

    Don't quote me on it, ring Iarnoid Eireann to double check.

    When did that happen? I know there was talk of it being demolished last year, but I thought it was being made a listed building or something?

    Think it is a listed building cos of how old it is-the front of it is still there. Nothing inside though cos their re-developing the whole area behind it to make a big "shopping plaza"

    So is it going to re-open at any stage in the future or is gone entirely?

    So you would drop Faz on the left wing for Cash ( a right winger) instead of Singh ( a left winger )

    I think he has it backwards because then Foy would be at RB...
