Anyone know when the European fixtures are likely to be on? Scratch a bunch of the fixtures from the first-round weekend and likely the next few rounds for Derry, Drogs and Cork as well and move them to an undetermined midweek date. Is it too much to suppose that some of the teams involved have been paired on these dates to reduce the backlog![]()

If they really have to schedule a mid-season break, why put it in June? It'd be far better placed around the middle/end of July, so that it falls during the English pre-season. That way the clubs that want to will be able to play a friendly in the empty week.

The break is to facilitate the desire of our very professional officials and blazer brigade to take a summer holiday. There is no other reason for it, this year or any other year.
If the player is getting paid a reasonable amount, then I doubt he'll be allowed to go on holiday anyway.
Most Premier Division sides will keep their players training through the break anyway, so we might as well time it so they can play a game or two against foreign opposition.
Meanwhile, the players that don't get paid can go off for a week in the sun..
Never said anything about a riot. We wont mention our 2 trips there last season then.
We'll be able to use that one for a long time and we both know it.
Maxi for dundalk mayor?
Anyway agree with Frankfurt there. A break is for the blazers. Fans dont matter in merrion square.
KOH
Thats good, it will save every club in the country mentioning nearly every trip Rovers made to them in the past and vice verse
I'll save this one for the end of the season, you might get nominated for POTY.We'll be able to use that one for a long time and we both know it.
