QuoteWere Cork playing tonight too?Originally Posted by dcfcsteve
Rico will be complaining about fixture congestion soon enough
One of our clubs has played 2 games in Europe already this season - progressing through a round - and not a thread about either of the games on here...!
What happened to Cork tonight to lose at home ? I thought Valur had been poor in the away leg ?
Were Cork playing tonight too?
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Played yesterday. Hence why we could've done with an Inter-Toto thread....Were Cork playing tonight too?
At least we've got one now......!
Think there was a thread about the first leg. People realised from that how poor Valur are and just presumed the Corkies were a sure bet, close enough in the end though

Foot.ie has been instructed by the FAI to follow rule 42.
Rule 42: RRS

Where ?
We were appalling, they were even worse but managed to sneak a goal.
If they were so bad, how come the wonderful Roy Donovan didn't score?
roy was having a stroll in the park. sat down at one point. got himself booked for messing with the ball after the whistle was blown. it was a harsh booking but the ref had been harsh all game so he should've been a bit smarter.
Cork have another InterToto game next week against Sweden's Halmstad BK. The FIFA two are available for them now. Incidentally that whole episode was a disgrace and illustrates that there are two different rules in football for the haves and the have nots. Cork City's treatment at the CAS was nothing short of appalling. Fran Gavin claims FIFA are going to change their rules on the three club issue following this episode, I hope they compensate Cork City by refunding them the lads salaries since the 1st of January.
Cork City have a League Cup Quarter-final on Tuesday away to Bohs. Rico was interviewed on Newstalk yesterday.... there have been no offers for Roy O'Donovan since January. The boy would be better off keeping his gob shut at this stage. Two back matches already for City in games against Bray and UCD to be played and or re-fixed.

Can't see Farrelly playing against Halmstad given the Ned Kelly he has on him (See caption competition thread in Off Topic).
Any chance of this game being Televised, I'd be very interested in seeing how Cork fare against one of our old European opponants.
TO TELL THE TRUTH IS REVOLUTIONARY
The ONLY foot.ie user with a type of logic named after them!
All of this has happened before. All of it will happen again.
Cork are playing Hammarby, not Halmstad.
Good to see both LOI and IL team go through.
Don't know much about Corks or Cliftonvilles opponent.
I just hope that the rest of both leagues can follow by example and reach the next phase.(which is most likely for LOI teams than IL to be fair)
The Hallion Battalion Molests football.:D
Oh right. Thought I read somewhere this morning it was Halmstad and I was surprised.

I'm sure you did. The Irish sporting press isn't renowned for its accuracy.
Hammarby and Halmstad are of a similar standard though. Both are mid table teams.
What are tou on about Kdjac???
There was a thread in the City section but it did not move to the eL section as did not seem to be wider interest than City fans in the games.
I must admit even though I traveled down for the game its hard to get excited about the Inter Two Bob Cup. It was different a few years ago but its a bit of a drop down when have been in Uefa & CL Cup in recent seasons. There weren't even any away fans to sing/chant at.
The 2nd leg was very similar to Ekranas last year with team unsure whether to go & kill off the game with a goal or sit back & defend the 2 goal lead. Vadur were ok but even a poor City performances gave up several goal scoring chances.
Hopefully Hammerby will come out with some arrogant comments this week to get the crowd going for next Saturday.
I dont think the FIFA two can play in the intertoto cup as they werent registered for it since they couldnt play in the League at the time of registration AFAIK. They should be making their debut this tuesday against bohs but are still inelligable for intertoto.Cork have another InterToto game next week against Sweden's Halmstad BK.

I agree with you aboyt Roy O Donavan though. His ego is bigger than the new shed in turners cross. George O C was never as bad.
They're eligible alright pateen.
I dunno about Roy v George.
That number 10 shirt should be retired or else reserved for either Dominic Foley, Colin P. O'Brien or Mariah Carey.
City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.
O'Bama - "Eerah yeah, I'd say we can alright!"
G.O'Mahoney Trapattoni'll sort ém out!!
Thought it would have been a good idea to give the 2 their debuts in this competition. By pushing the game to the sunday night coupled with their debuts it would have meant a bigger crowd.
It may be the Inter Toto Cup but its still Europe. Who do you play if you progress next round?
