Holidaysong, I realise you were highlighting the 'Should' yourself but then you quickly breezed on to the next round opponents. But I would like to ask you when was the last time an LoI side beat an Icelandic League side in a UEFA game over 90 minutes, I can think of two drawn legs and a double defeat.
This 'The League Expects' attitude from some LoI supporters is getting tiresome 'cos the side in Europe will never win, there will always be one more thing they could have done to prevent defeat. Perhaps not yourself HS, but in the past this has lead to abuse of fans.
" I'll go right up to here,
it can't possibly hurt.
All they will find is my
beer and my shirt."

Sorry if this is in the wrong thread. I don't follow the Eircom League at all.
My question is, who qualified from Ireland for the Champions League? What stage of the qualifiers do they go in at? Who, when and where do they play their first two matches?
Thanks very much, and please excuse my ignorance. I live in North America.
Drogheda United qualified as league champions, they'll enter the draw as a seeded team in the first qualifying round and they'll play their home match at Dalymount Park, home of Bohemian FC, as their own ground doesn't have a UEFA Licence. The location of the away match depends on who they get in the draw on Tuesday morning.
Thanks very much. When will the games be played? Last week of July like?
First qualifying round, first leg matches are scheduled for 15th and 16th July, second leg a week later.
Hey A Face, surely this should go into the Drogheda section?
I got no lips I got no bones where there
were eyes there's only space
Well I imagine it was a shock for Riga to have lost the 1st Leg and they would take things a bit more serious for the 2nd Leg. They were the better side and as it's the Intertoto the better sides tend to be asleep for the 1st Round 1st leg games.
Won't be an easy game for Bohs now but I think they should do it over the two legs.

Sorry if there's a thread already, but Drogs got Levadia from Estonia in CL
If they get through that game they play Dynamo Kiev
Win, draw, draw, loss I reckon.
Linfield got Dinamo Zagreb
Foot.ie's entire existence is predicated on the average idiot's inability to ignore other idiots
We'll have to wait another year for an Irish team to reach the group stages then! Seriously the way Drogs are playing Levadia will stuff them. Wot does that do to the co-efficeint Stu?!
