Anyone heading out to SDCC tonight the Luas is only going to/from Heuston.

SantryRed · 23-03-2012 4:56pm

Where's the best place to park for getting to the SDCC stadium?

dfx- · 23-03-2012 4:59pm

Best place to park is Woodies across the road, but depending on segregation, you might be all herded towards the Square and Woodies closes at 10pm, so the Square is there at a cost and a queue at machines to pay for it. There's estates around which are safe enough.

Let down!

I really shocked and offended by all these SDCC references. It makes me so hurt and angry.

We will get back to the sumptuous luxury of tolka one day if its the last thing we do.

Not a moment has passed when it hasn't bothered me since this thread was opened. I've had trouble sleeping too.

if you were to take offense to everything said here about your club you would age 20 years;)

Not sure if half of them are aware of their own irony. Not many teams own their stadium in this league. Out of the three best stadiums in this league, Tallaght, Bradywell and Turners Cross, two are owned by the council and the other by the FAI.

Dundalk starting with a 16 year old at left back this evening. The great Jim McLaughlin's grandson Ben will make his debut.

I know McCaffrey has said he's building a team for the future but surely playing 16 year olds is pushing it a bit. Anyway hoping for our first goal of the season tonight. To Oriel!

Hopefully we can keep our run of no red cards going, might get to Europe on a fairplay rule

4 minutes...... thats how long that lasted, rovers 1 up.

17th red card of the season.

CiaranC · 23-03-2012 11:07pm

Its nice to have Shels back to laugh at. They were comically bad tonight.

Huge crowd and a bumper win, the futures bright, the futures green and white.

dreamers75 · 23-03-2012 11:09pm

19 red cards now for the season, 23 games played.

That's some stat.
In relation to the game.......BOLL*X!!!!!!

applehunter · 23-03-2012 11:39pm

Cream rising to the top.

applehunter · 23-03-2012 11:44pm

5000 at the Rovers match including President Higgins.

3000 at the Derry game.

Great to see.

Ebbs · 23-03-2012 11:45pm

While we were the better team, all four goals were a gift. Both Shels keepers were muck. No idea how billy beat him to the ball but a stone wall peno. We were gifted two goals and then we just turned off. Hot the post and bar too.

McCabe's sending off never should have been, I dont know how that was simulation considering he was sandwiched. Even if it wasnt a foul he went down under a challenge, thought it was a free myself.

Great banner from Shels, put ours to shame. Bar that good crowd from yous understandably quiet though. What was the big Gardai rush for? Breaking chairs or?

As bad as some are, Dane Massey is an idiot. Just go behind 2-1 and then get sent off for something so petty and stupid. In saying that, the ref had an absolute nightmare of a game. Two head injuries, one caused by an elbow (with massive bloodflow and a trip to the hospital), the other with a boot, and he kept the game going.

EDIT: Just remembering Marty Waters being booked. With tackles like that getting bookings, its no wonder players are getting sent off.

2 kids were fighting over their favourite NDubz album or something along those lines

Maybe all the diving he has being doing for years the referees have finally copped on to him. Delighted for him. Probably the player I hate most in the league.

Are they big crowds? Like what would the average be for a Dublin derby?

Just curious btw as would have no idea what they pull in. Been to UCD matches before with **** all people there

Cracking debut for the young fella. Looked confident and has decent technique. Our best performance by far. Played some lovely football for the first hour or so.

Tired a bit towards the end and were hanging on slightly but deserved the win and I'm a bit more confident about avoiding relegation this evening. Having Chris Shields back was the difference.

Probably eight or nine hundred at the game. Not great but pretty standard for a UCD match.
