Depending on cup replays i presume.

IMO was no reason for game not to be played already in july.

cheers

I know but was waiting for the official word.

FAI eventually decided to communicate the decision to the rest of the planet here

[joe]

Would somebody please tell Aertel

[James]

maybe we could a poll on it
who thinks its off and who doesnt
cause even last night there were people who mentioned how they were looking forward to the trip up to the pale on monday and had taken days off work etc etc

What did they say at the match on Bray? Was anything announced about citys next game?

[joe]

apparently it's on september 16th now

I think it reflects badly on the league if it takes the FAI, pats & city from sunday last til friday to officially announce the game not on.

Sure no doubt Pats wanted to wait til we top of the league (after bohs game) before playing us to boost the crowd.

[Éanna]

yeah, aertel was still saying last night that it was on tonight, but there's a disclaimer thingy up there now cheers lads

[pete]

I wonder will this game be on next Monday. Assuming Rovers game goes ahead city will have to play 4 games in 10 days.....

[Éanna]

They can't keep postponing it forever really. Next Monday is as good a time as any, i guess.

[Colm]

Yeah, they've already postponed this one twice and if we win tomorrow then we will have to postpone our home tie v Pats as that is down for semi-final weekend!
I would be very surprised if it didnt go ahead on monday.
