Pre-Season Friendly in Dublin?

[mancity2012_eamo]

Agreed.



Playing in Limerick is a bit much!

Especially when the crowd was infiltrated by Rag Neaderthals.
Didn't Clichy have a banana thrown at him.

 

[york away to this!]

Agreed.

This could be a great game if true.
A good time to catch up, if you're blue.
A weekend not to miss, a few nights on the piss.
Full of beer, hookers and drugs - shite and spew.

Would love to do this. Why don’t they just announce it so I can book flights? Twats.

...and it will be pissing down with rain.

Chances are high that it will be @purplenose but it’s also worth noting that mid-June to mid-September is actually forecast to be quite settled and warm, especially in the East.

Cheers Thaksin. Cork-based Blue here so would be very interested in any game that we'd be playing in Ireland.

Wouldnt it be great if they came to Pairc Ui Choaimh.

 

[blue banks]

Ha, true @TonyM - not sure GAA-heads would lower themselves though. Dublin wouldn't be too bad a trip though - albeit midweek.

If the price was right they'd be happy I'd say. Especially after all the recent work and bills. The GAA these days know that there's no point in fighting soccer. They're rightly focusing on making the youth level really positive for kids so they'll stay regardless as they get older - at least that's my impression of Rebel Og etc.

Maybe ... I can only dream ... anything but Dublin :-)

Is football very much the poor relation in Cork? I've always assumed that the only place in Ireland where football is king is the urban, working class parts of Dublin. GAA and rugby dominate the middle class areas and anywhere west of Newlands Cross is for the national games mostly.

Yeah that was a disgrace that day.

The highlight for me was getting to watch Usain Bolt run while Milner and Mancini and a few others watching it.

But keep it to Dublin, we're more civilised here ;-)
