Excellent, fair play to them, great tie for them and a nice bit of money.

Sundy

How much do they get for the win is it the full €200,000? Same as the later stages?

Mossy Monk

well done to them. Rosenberg wont be easy though. what are the chances of it being televised?

invincibleirish

well done bohs,but it shall be city who will be in the cl next year(unless bohs win the cl)

cournioni

Well done indeed. I intended on going down to the game to see them but work got in the way. Any idea when the home leg of the Rosenborg tie is? I know the next stage in the qualifiers is next week.

[edit]Nevermind I found it at the bottom of your link[/edit]

Brilliant! Just brilliant! Who could have predicted a 3-0 win? Not Bate Borisov anyway. They were already discussing venues for the next round against Rosenborg!

Crowe's goal was class! Very well taken indeed!

KdjaCL

Good win and well done.
We(ie the league) need a win in one of the legs v rosenborg and we get that extra point in the fifa rankings ,which gets us into the 2nd round of the CL and closer to 1st round of Uefa.

Thks to Pats and Bohs recent european games oh and the scum.

Fair played to them. Hopefully they can pull off a decent home result against Rosenborg.

Hopefully I'll make the match next week,

Great result and performance.
If they beat Rosenberg are they thru to the CL group stages?
If so that would be absolutely amazing for Irish football.

Hairy Homer

Great win. Three well-worked goals. Mighty night out. And great crack.

I mean. Lethargic ball boys getting BOTH keepers booked for time wasting because they couldn't get off their arses quick enough to throw the ball back from the empty terraces!!! You don't get that in the Gargling Premiership, and they can stick their prawn sandwiches up their.......

Am I right in thinking that three of the Bohs lineup (Hawkins, Heary and Crowe) were in the Irish under 20 team that came third in the world cup five or six years ago?

Roll on Rosenborg.

Im afraid not. They would still have one more qualifying stage to go.

LizardKing

Well done Bohs .. so they'll have to play 4 more games then they'd be in CL Groups ... ( Jeesus that'd be great)

Home Vs Rosenberg
Away Vs Rosenberg

if they win above its ..
Hame/Away Vs ??????

It's possible but unlikely ...

KdjaCL

The 3rd round would be against such teams as
Valencia
Chelsea
Newcastle
Inter Milan
3rd in Germany ??????

Teams from the top 4 UEFA ranked countries
England
Spain
Italy
Germany

It ensures they get in but Bohs will get at least 2.5 million for the games possibly more.
Also with the .5 million for playing in the qualifiers (every team in it gets that) the Rosenborg game will get them a fair whack also about .5 million if they lucky.

Irony is they would have gotten a lot more if Tv3 or RTE showed them.

no way!! i didn't know that
that's bad by RTE, i'm sure a lot of people would be interested in watching those games, at least the Rosenborg on, and any CL ones following that

does that mean if they get into the CL proper we'll have to watch them on sky??

KdjaCL

Sorry teams i posted above are wrong ,Uefa released the seeded teams for the draw which takes place on friday.

SEEDED TEAMS INCLUDE
Ajax (Holland)
Chelsea (England)
Deportivo La Coruna (Spain)
Dynamo Kiev (Ukraine)
Galatasaray (Turkey)
Lazio (Italy)
Newcastle (England)

There are others but these will get the easiest draw.

The CL will be shown on RTE /TV3 UTV and Sky ,Sky will show every game UTV will show 2 ,RTE and TV3 1 each on different nights (Man Utd or Arsenal).

UTV will only have 1 game a week. the other will be on ITV2. Sky will show everything except for those 2 games

Just wondering is it possible that rte/tv3 will show the bohs match live?

I remember last year, I think it was Shelbourne or something, in the first qualifying round, which they lost, and RTE showed one of the legs live.

If they didnt get much viewers for last years game I doubt they'll show this match. But a few reasons why this game will provide more interest and higher ratings are:

1. This is the second qualifying round which has more to offer.

2. Its against a good team which includes the likes of ex-celtic striker, Harald Brattback.

3.There was little or no advertising for last years game which obviously would affect the amount of viewers.

4. The eircom league has become more high profile in the last year or so.

5. This game has more to offer - as KdjaC said above, a win in just one of the legs means that the winner of the Eircom league this season will skip the first qualifying round and go straight into the second.

I amn't a fan of the Eircom league and I never went to an Irish league match in my life but I would, without a doubt, re-arrange any schedule I have on Wedensday to watch the match.

yeah well done to bohs my only problem is that this will probably boost them and they will recover from their indifferent start and win the league. altough its better than shels winning it.

Bohs will have a tie against Deportivo La Coruna if they are successful in their 2nd round CL qualifier against Rosenberg.

According to RTE's Sorts mailing list:

3.Bohs game live on Network 2

---

Bohemians' UEFA Champions League second round first leg clash with Norwegian side Rosenborg will be screened live from Dalymount Park on Network 2 this Wednesday evening. The programme begins at 7.30pm, with kick-off at 7.45pm.

So armchair fans who can't be bothered to put in a bit of effort to go to a live match can still see it.

LizardKing

Its defo on Network 2 ( think it might be sold out of tickets for ground)

If they get past Rosenberg and lose to Deportivo they still go back into UEFA Cup so they'd be giving themselves a good few money spinning opportuninties ....

jonno

Wasn't sure whether RTE would bother their asses showing it so I got tickets last Friday:)

Is the new forat of the UEFA cup starting this year or what? If so then Boh's could amas a nice sum with all the group games they are guaranteed.

Just checked it out and the new format isn't coming in until next year. It's a pity because that new group stage is a good money spinner for the smaller clubs.
