nshoop and his attitude = "no-one likes us we don't care" while every other poster views it as "please hate Rovers, we need attention here, please just some feckin hate, WE STILL EXIST"

I can't ever remember having home attendances of 600 but you would obviously know better. I do envy your club of the people and how they were going to sue Ollie for wild accusations but then, oh yeah, who's pockets are you filling this year?

A Sham

giving us abuse about bandwagon doesn't merit a response but then again I am envious of the crowds of 10,000+ you got when every taxi driver in Dublin went down to Milltown/car park. Where are those boyos now?

Any idea when the schools start back so we can get rid of the idiocy?

**mypost** · 28/08/2006, 2:02 AM

I think everyone would gladly take home to Athlone.

Eh any word of when the draw is?

**seand** · 28/08/2006, 7:55 AM

Dublinharp, do you really expect us, or anyone, to tell you when the draw for the cup is? If we did that, people might know about it. The papers might cover it. It could even be considered promoting the game. Shame on you all of for even asking!

And by the way, Dundalk are the bestest supported team in Ireland ever ever...FACT (see, I wrote it in capital letters, so it has to be true). Has any other Irish club played in front of 100,000? Thought not! ;-)

**Irish Fan** · 28/08/2006, 8:26 AM

Although they do have there problems i do believe Shamrock Rovers are the best fans in the league.

**Dodge** · 28/08/2006, 9:57 AM

Start a new thread if you like but no more stoopid arguements over who ahs the bigger/better fans. Don't have me to tap the sign...

This thread is about the draw only...

Pats played Iran in a friendly in the late 80's i think (Dodge??) and there were about 100,000 at it, all men too!!

Rang the FAI to find out about the draw and nobody knows, "theres nobody around to answer your query can you call back later?" was the response.

In 1990 charliesboots. PLayed National team and league champions. Drew with national side 0-0 in front of 100,000, lost 2-0 to national side in front of 80,000.

If someone does the double, the Cup runners-up get into Europe.

If the league runners-up win the Cup, they are deemed to qualify for Europe through the Cup, not the league (as it's higher seeded in UEFA's eyes), so the extra UEFA spot would go to third in the league, and the InterToto spot to fourth.

UCD played some of those mad Asian teams too - Jordan, China, etc - might have been a big crowd at some of them. CTID would know, I'd imagine.

Spoke to a very pleasant man called Andy in the FAI.

The draw will take place during the week beginning Monday September 4th and is provisionally set for Wednesday September 6th. That date is subject to change depending on the availability of those chosen to do the draw. It will be screened live on the RTE 6.1 news.

The 1/4 final fixtures will take place during the weekend of Friday September 29th - Sunday October 1st.

Two of the fixtures will be screened live on TG4, the first on the Friday night and the second on the Saturday night.

That will rule the derry match out from being shown live then, we play PSG on the 28th, so i would guess our match will have to be the sunday evening.

As of this season, no they don't. New UEFA rules. If Derry win the league and the cup, the second UEFA Cup spot will go to second place.

Does the same rule apply to the Setanta Cup?

JohnnyMc certainly doesn't seem to think so

**JC_GUFC** · 29/08/2006, 9:53 AM

Yeah - he was effectively saying - I hope we avoid Derry until the final coz we haven't a chance of beating them at the moment!

I guess it's fair enough though, they're on an unbelievable run for the last year and a half (not sure it can be classified as a run anymore)

Their only losses have been last minute away at Shels, away at Rovers, last minute away at Cork on the last day and last minute away at Cork in the cup.

When was the last time they lost in the Brandywell anyone know?
