    I just sent Jeff and Lloyd a PM about it. I found the school's website but I dunno how they go about booking these things. Trippie just told me he text Jeff too so hopefully we'll have a result soon enough.

    Cheers man.
    Sorry about this, saying I'd organise and dumping it on you now.
    I'll hold onto UCD as a backup for now

    We may need a keeper if Llyod doesn't/can't play and HJ can't get his mate. Interested?

    hey sorry lads, have been away from boards last few days.

    the booking of raphaela's is a bit tricky. technically when we played our manager's u-12 youth team had the booking both times. the club he works for is affiliated with the school so it is a bit tricky.

    Also, the UCD pitch being booked out is a blessing in disguise, the pitch really is too small. you can shoot from goal kicks no bother.

    st columbas national school have a pitch with footie nets. as do leicester celtic, or st kilians deutsche schule dublin in clonskeagh. all can take once off bookings to the best of my knowledge. wesley college also have a pitch. most posh southside hockey schools have teh facilities, just need to grease the wheels with cash, its the only language they understand. i.e kilians for 2hrs would be €160 i think, or €320. its 80 an hour, but that could be for half pitch. im guessing if someone picks up a phone and calls 4-5 of these places they'll find somewhere.

    I rang Raphaela's today and apparently there is only one sister (Consuela - I kid you not) who sorts out the bookings and she won't be back in Ireland until the 16th and according to the Sister I spoke to absolutely nobody else in that place can handle a booking for a sports pitch.

    I am not gonna be able to take the time to go ringing around a rake of places so I am gonna have to hand back off to you Frisbee to give it a whirl in those places Jeff suggested there ^^^^^^.

    leicester celtic is behind nutgrove? that looks like a class pitch. Also I heard (maybe on this forum) that St. Killian's was a great place to play, and of course it's next door to UCD.

    On another subject I think I have the makings of another team that wants to play the poker forum, we play 5 a side together a couple of times a week but haven't played as a team before. We have some quality players but I expect we will be a step down from Grosvenor Lane in terms of quality. If someone volunteers to organise/manage a boards team, we'll set up a date.

    Honestly I think alot of people will have trouble finding those places.
    I wouldn't be to inclined to try Colombus.


    Looks like Leicster Celtic is free from 3-5 on the day.
    And Killian's is ringing out.

    So will I hold out and wait to try Killians again?
    Or go ahead and try book Leicster.

    Just thinking in terms of ease of access for people who don't know the area...

    Killians is beside UCD.

    Leicster is in Rathfarnham, beside Marlay Park and Nutgrove shopping center.

    Fair enough. Killian's is rining out so I sent the bird an e-mail.

    My point is that if they start trying to organise another match in here people won't know what match we're talking about in here and it will get confusing.
    Fairly understandable.

    You have to ignore Trippie. He asked Santa for a sense of humour for Christmas and the big guy let him down. Bitter bitter bitter...

    I am coming from the northside and I don't mind Leister City,its all the one to me the poxy southside is the southside.

    I know were nutgrove SC is and I believe its not far away,should be easy to find dead straight from Harlods Cross.
