Sunderland plan Irish trip

March 2, 2007

Sunderland have put the finishing touches on plans to visit Ireland for three pre-season friendlies in the summer.

Roy Keane�s Black Cats will take in games against eircom League Premier Division sides Galway United, Bohemians and Cork City in July and August.

By that stage, they hope to be looking forward to a season in the Premiership.

Sunderland currently lie in fourth place in the Championship table, their recent good form earning an underwhelmed Keane the Manager of the Month award on Thursday.

(Not a Wum just observation)

Interesting too that all of our squad flew back in sunday night from sunderland.

Its the Rovers Member Club btw.

Decent pay day? No chance.

Well, they only played Shamrock Rovers a week (?) ago, so they will probably want fresh opposition.

And we beat them so they'll be looking for an easier run-out but obviously someone better than Pats, who they beat easily.

fair play, you must have been right about Casey so. He'll do a really good job there by the sound of things.

We'll have to make do with Vinny Parkinsons

Bohs are probably looking to step up after hammering the Mighty Aberdeen 0-0

Should be a good game

Eh? Would imagine close to sell out hope the Bohs fans get tickets, all the Keano lovers be there in droves. Would possibly be on tv too.

Obviously!!! Can't wait for April 27th.

Think your smilie sums you up. It doesnt matter what you said because as per you are all wrong. The only thing that hurts is your brain. Quinn is a member of Rovers. That's his interest.

We would have had to hire out tolka, pay security, insurance etc etc for a Rovers reserve side to play sundireland. Hardly a big pay day.

Plus as already pointed out we have already played them.

Three questions:

How many Rovers players signed for them?

What's it like to have no manager?

How many years have you spent in the puzzle factory?

Oh dear. I think the character of Proby in Rescue Me is based on you. He thinks tolka would be filled for sundireland
