After the game ya should get in with jersies and runners, Toffs that is

It's been a long, long time since I have been to Toffs but can you get away with sports gear on a Friday or Saturday night now? How times have changed if so.

No just big sporting nights like once every 50 years when the GAA win something or last game of the season with Rovers

You can walk into toffs any night of the week with runners on as long as you dont have tracksuit with them lol. Football jerseys are a no no though.

Looks like an interesting 3 remaining games, idealy need to avoid the bottom 3. Last place is relagation, whilst 2nd and 3rd from bottom is a play off, winner of that playoff stays up, loser plays of against the winner of the 1st div play off. 4th from bottom or higher, and we play another season in the premier leauge

Bohemians 32 35 67
Cork City 32 12 52

Dunno bout anyone else, but I find the relegation battle nerves are kicking in all ready...nearly wish it was the end of season, so we knew already. I'm a Newcastle Utd. fan, so I don't want another final league day of drama/ the worry saga! Here's hoping that the cup goes well for us too, although tbh, I'd prefer to stay in the premier, and lose the cup if we could only have one or the other!

the nerves have been with me for the last serveral games, nails are totally bitten down

itac · 19-10-2009 7:48pm

Irish Stew, think they really kicked in with me on Friday night. Spent most of the evening watching Cork & Bohs on the telly, refreshing extratime.ie and not wanting to leave the telly off, because occasionally they were talking about the Rovers match...don't think I've ever willed us to score a goal so much...(except in all the other matches we've been a goal down/in a position to possibly win!)
Can't wait for this Friday night though...!!

a cup runs always nice, more concerned about derry tomorrow night first though

itac · 19-10-2009 8:56pm

God, I completely forgot that was tomorrow night, had it in my head that it was thursday night for some ita-like reason

Here's hoping...! *crosses fingers*

Radharc na Sleibhte · 20-10-2009 5:43pm

Is the semi sold out yet?

gustavo · 20-10-2009 9:28pm

There were no tickets left in Jako and only 5 left in Keaneys today

2-1 in Derry into injury time

shanec1928 · 20-10-2009 10:03pm

3 points looks like were staying up now

and if pats lose their game in hand, hopefully avoid the play offs as well, was shocked when i heard that this season the FAI had introduced play offs for 2nd and 3rd from bottom compared to just 2nd from bottom last season

suppose its more revenue and advertising of the leauge but quite harsh in a league that only contains 10 teams.

EuskalHerria · 21-10-2009 2:09pm

Boco's free kick last night was unbelievable, top corner keeper hand't a chance.

gipo2 · 21-10-2009 3:38pm

Is there any tickets left for friday night?

not sure, but think they were selling them at the showgrounds this evening (couple of hours ago)

Sligo have to be big favourites now. I know u were favourites all along but the last few weeks we have been pretty bad and Rovers have been on 1 hell of a good run. I think the Blues players if they play to there best could win but they are playing so bad at the moment could not put 2 passes together. Our game against Mervue last night Okay we won but we were awful as ive said before its either they are saving themselves for the Semi-final or that they have absolutely nothing left in there legs it was the same against Monaghan. I hope we make a contest of it but the way we are playing I dont think we will but here's hoping. Either way if we dont win it then I hope Rovers do:)

Bluezar · 21-10-2009 9:05pm

Really looking forward to the game......Sligo Town better prepare itself for an invasion after the game as we are all staying up....

Come On the Blues!

Im sure there will be a Section O tune sang, we did in Derry and Dundalk

Xiney · 23-10-2009 2:09pm

Himself is coming up for the game - we'd arranged a ticket for me too but then I couldn't make it so we let our arrangers know they could let go of it if they found someone who wanted it.

Now himself has decided he'd like to bring his dad to the game tonight - I don't know if there's any chance that the game isn't sold out already but where are tickets being sold, etc? Apart from the gate, that is if they still have any...

It's never simple
