    Nae bother boss. Just prepare yourself for the emotional trauma of witnessing Philly and Dermo go at it* live, in living colour and having to pick a side. It ain't gonna be pretty, if you're from Mayo.

    *And by "it" I don't just mean play the actual game. :D

    Thought Connolly was injured and was a doubt after playing the shtick fighting and coming off.

    As are both Smalls' for Ballymun, be an awful shame if that bunch all don't play.

    Careful there Slatts. The True Gael police will be after ya, if yer tossin' phrases like that around. :rolleyes:

    I'll eat my hat if Dermo misses the game. He's ridiculously injury free, considering the punishment he takes. Thank God. We'd never see him, if he was also prone to the usual bumps and bruises that normal humans are. :P

    Ballymun never seem to get a clear run now since they lost the final vs Bridget's

    Either McCarthy or a Small missing, plus Whelan he's missed a few and he's a handy player

    No. The stand tickets are all sold out. Yes. A big crowd is expected. Standing room only terrace tickets will be all that's available tomorrow night.

    They would sell this twice over. If you are going, get there early/ Philly and Dermo bigger draw than MacGregor :)

    Would the terrace tickets just be standing behind the goals or is there terrace alongside the pitch.

    How much does Parnell park hold.

    Would it be an option to hold the match in croke park

    If you get there early enough there is terrace on one side. Rare that both goal ends are full but they will be tonight.

    Parnell capacity is a bit of a mystery! I'd say it holds somewhere around 12,000. This game could get 20,000 if there was space, but that looks sparse in CP. RDS would be perfect!

    You are right I always thought it was 10,000 but on the world stadium website they list it as 13,500
    https://www.worldstadiumdatabase.com/parnell-park-stadium-dublin-in-ireland.htm

    I also enjoyed the picture they used on the website

    parnell-park.jpg

    Then in another park it is listed as 10k :confused:

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Hard to judge really as a big crowd can be up to three deep along the walls when everywhere else is full. Good indication of a full house is when the far goal end is full. Atmosphere in a full Parnell is something else. Really looking forward to tonight.

    Yeah it is my favorite ground great under lights, packed, tight pitch.
    The players are not spared a lot of the comments that would go unheard in bigger grounds.

    Doubt if there would be any really. Leinster Rugby just lease the ground from The Royal Dublin Society for 9 months of the year. They don't own it, nor do they have any say in who gets to use it when they aren't. If Bruce Springsteen, Funderland, UCD's exams & and the Horse Show all get to use the facilities, why not the Philly v Dermo road show, if the need ever arose? Time to put old snobberies to bed methinks...in both directions.

    Would like to see Ballymun win, and they have a full team so I fancy them to win by 2 or 3.

    Jesus Christ, that's a 'welcome to the game' hit if I've ever seen one. McCarthy levelled him.

    Vinnies very good defensively. Not giving Ballymun a sniff.

    Connolly sublime so far.
