Watching the game tonight?

**cheifo** · 02/11/2007, 10:56 AM

Great anticipation in Donegal ahead of Finn Harps V Athlone match tonight.As EL fans we seem to spend a lot of our lives discussing whats wrong with our clubs and the league so its wonderful when there is something positive to look forward to.Whats particularly heartening is the huge amount of kis/teenagers about the place wearing Harps jersies and jackets(a big seller locally).Hope the excitment transmits itself to the watching television audience.I appreciate most of you will be away watching your own club but was just wondering will there be any of you tuning in?.
Cannot wait

I'll be tuning in if I don't go to Dalymount to see Bohs and Longford. Weather is nice so might go to Dalymount.

I'll give ye a wave

Massive buzz about Donegal these last few weeks. Real hard-core GAA areas are getting behind Harps, fans travelling from all over just to be part of it all. Massive game for us, hopefully a full house and a great atmosphere with 2 of the supporters clubs (F.B.T.N and Strabane) really making a big effort in preparing colour and noise to the whole situation.
If anyone doubts why we support LOI, then this is why, tell them to go to, Finn Park, St.Colmans park, United Park, Lissywollen (Cobh's last game) or Buckley park (Harps last game) over the next 2 weekends and see what its all about. I can think of nothing else other than Harps for the last few weeks, you just dont get the same buzz from watching Liverpool, Man U, Arsenal or any other foreign team, well I dont anyways.
Phew, got that outta my system, annnddd relax

Em... small matter of Bray needing 3 points to stay out of the play off spot

England's young guns take on Wales at AFC Telford in a Sky Sports Victory Shield encounter. Wales were the only team to take points from title-winning England last year.

Obviously you're a Bray fan I haven't met. I'm known for NOT going to many away matches. So far this season I've been to one and that was for free in UCD.

In every match we need three points but somehow I doubt we'll get anything tonight.

**R�iteoir** · 02/11/2007, 1:56 PM

Aye - i've had to deploy a bucket due to the amount of saliva

Seriously though - i've nothing better to do this evening so I'll be watching over the web
