    As Drogs have realised their own home ground is awful, they are to play their European game at Dalymount.

    They think they will get over 8000 though the gates to see them. Some chance

    Cant see Drogs getting 8000 travelling down to Dublin for the European tie unless they progress at least past the first round. Depends on who they are playing as well.

    Not sure if this is a good decision because even though Drogs will have all the fans there its effectively a nuetral venue and it could work against them.

    They had no real choice in the decision. With the terraces closed for european football the capacity of United Park is very small.

    Drogs will bring a decent crowd down with them and im sure a lot of neutrals will turn up as well depending on the draw they get, but as mentioned above, playing their home leg away from home so to speak could ultimatly work against them.
