At the end of the broadcast on 212, the guy said it was be shown tomorrow from 6......did anyone else hear that. Not sure if he meant online or on tv.

I caught the last few minutes of whatever was on channel 212 and there was something mentioned about the homecoming being shown today but I didnt catch any other details.

Ardara 4pm
Ballybofey 6pm

Will do well to get through Glenties, Fintown and Glenfin without a pitstop..

danniemcq · 25-09-2012 12:34pm

where'd you get that info?

Any word on LK?

edit oh wait see the image now, site was blocked till i used the phone

Ha, is that timeline based on purely driving through the towns with no stops? Because if not it's 100% guaranteed to fail. They'd be lucky to get to L'k at midnight with that route!

Agree, text a few glenswilly lads a while ago saying they would be lucky to see Sam tonight.

I got that off the twitter that was with the team yesterday and Sunday. Did seem rather ambitious. Apparently lots of people showed up in Donegal Town this morning again and they're behind by over an hour already.

p.s. an hour and 15 mins from Killygordan to Castlefin on Thursday. Are they walking?

Don't forget they do a lot of their training in that area so it makes sense for them to be there for a while.

Anyone know are they going around the schools like they did in 92 of just stopping off at the clubs?

Maybe, but from that schedule it looks like they're in Killygordan for an hour and only in Castlefin for half an hour. I'm sure it'll be way off their schedule anyway.

Rumours flying around now saying that the county board have done this on badness as a way of sticking 2 fingers up at letterkenny chamber for trying to get the main homecoming.

Is there a link to an official twitter or are these updates coming from local randomers? (I suck at the tweet machine:o)

It was later in the year when they went around the schools after the win in 1992. Actually think it was 93 when they did school in my area.

If so, they're also sticking two fingers up at the people who live in the biggest town in the county.

Doing what? According to Highland, they're finishing up in Letterkenny tonight.

Based on progress so far, we could be meeting them in the morning when we're going to work.:D

I thought it strange as well but don't forget their sponsors are Donegal Creameries so maybe stopping there for a bit.

Full county tour? Nothing mentioned on the list about Fanad and there were at least 300 of us at the match and the same amount looking for tickets

Technically that's at the Cross, not Killygordon

Not much of a detour to make though.

edit: they're only in Dunkineely according to Ryan McHugh. Way behind schedule.

martyeds · 25-09-2012 5:24pm

Moville is not mentioned in the Thursday, with the other Inishowen clubs,

homer simpson · 25-09-2012 6:12pm

Any update on the movement of the "tour" since?

Quick poke about on twitter tells me through Kilcar, not yet in Ardara.

Quote from IrishTV's Facebook page:

The homecoming will be repeated this Thursday 27th September at 9pm on SKY 191/Freesat 400. It will also be available to view online on www.irishtv.ie and www.donegal.tv from tomorrow Wednesday 26th September.

2moreMinutes · 25-09-2012 7:26pm

Were just out of Killybegs moving towards Kilcar at 6. Half ten in Letterkenny is starting to look very very optimistic.
