Pitch might be a tiny bit wet...

What's this craic with calling it the Dublin Arena? What the feck was wrong with LANSDOWNE ROAD?!

Anyway. Kinda glad for my god seats now. Horrific out there.

So anyone care to make a prediction on tonights game? Thinking legia will get the vital away goal tonight and just prove to be to strong over the two legs in general.

Gona go with 1-1

Oh cool, now not only is rte player so **** that it buffers every minute or two, but now that triggers the thing to reload and play the ads again

That's what it should be called, but in this country nothing is sacred.

Awful conditions out there. Will this suit Dundalk over Legia?

The FAI are wondering if they can fine Legia for using flares in their ground I bet.

Cmon Dundalk, this crowd are very beatable.

Legia really aren't anything special, I think this is a serious serious chance for Dundalk.

I wouldn't go getting overconfident after 13 minutes of the home leg! Dundalk have been the better side so far no doubt.

Stevecw

Legia look nothing to be afraid of at all. A 1-0 win here is very possible, even a 0-0 would be ok.

The official name is the Aviva Stadium. However, UEFA won't allow stadium branding during their games. Hence you get the Arsenal Stadium, the Manchester City Stadium and tonight, the Dublin Arena. Big Brother UEFA is watching, you know?
:eek:

Well put Brian.

Quite funny to watch it on BT, your man keeps saying "Here in the Dublin Arena - as we have to call it for tonight".

It doesn't really work on TV does it? They've called it the Aviva on both RTE & BT so far tonight.

"Usually the Aviva Stadium but we can't call it that tonight". :pac:

I love him being on co-commentary, always says mad stuff.

Decent start by Dundalk tbf
Defending well

HalloweenJack

McEleney putting in a good shift.

AllGunsBlazing

Brilliant last ditch defending from the Legia player.

applehunter

Ger Canning can't contain his condescension.

HalloweenJack

Delighted I can't access the RTE player. I'd hate to have to listen to that twerp, he's no interest in or knowledge of any sport that doesn't originate within the 32. Brian Kerr at least would offset it somewhat.

justshane

Decent first half, 0-0 probably an accurate reflection of the game so far.

kksaints

Comfortable enough for Dundalk. Defense has done very well.

A_Sober_Paddy

One of the commentators mentioned about one of the Dundalk players having to go to work after the bate game. I thought the Dundalk lads were full time?

MD1990

Boyle much improved tonight he has played very well. Possibly bring on Finn for Mountney & move McEleney onto the right.

Absolutely. It's very irritating. They breed them in RTE.

Probably a little annoyed that he didn't get the Women's Volleyball gig out in Rio.

Decent option there, is Benson on the bench

Dundalk are doing well, but I fear for them in the last 15 when the superior fitness of the professionals might show.

Benson & Kilduff are the 2 attacking options off the bench

Oh well aware of that, hence the butchered seats with A for Aviva, and the yellow electrical tape everywhere. But I thought it was Lansdowne Rd, also known as the Aviva for corporate/sponsorship reasons. Anyway, back to the game.

Oat23

Drop a bomb on the idiot in the crowd with a whistle.

There should be a heavy fine/punishment for people who bring whistles to games to interfere. It's worse than running onto the pitch.

Is it me or does one of the commentators keep prouncing Dundalk as "Dundork" its annoying the feck out of me

Mr.Nice Guy

Not a peno for me.

A_Sober_Paddy

Harsh

ctrl-alt-delete

That was horribly harsh that.

Cypher_sounds

How did the baldy lad not get a yellow after been strenuously warned after his fifth foul in the first half. Shocking refereeing!!

Harsh to award that peno.

AllGunsBlazing

shocking decision.

Stevecw

Harsh peno, hard to come back from this

Mars Bar

That was a harsh decision

kksaints

Harsh peno, very harsh yellow.

edgecutter

Such a big game and we get refs like this. Shocking decision.

AllGunsBlazing

Discipline the watchword now. Don't concede a second.
