Just as a matter of interest, any idea if Cork fans have let Kennedy's know that they plan on meeting there?

No dont think so,

Might not do any harm to let them know, as given the amount of extra home fans that will be about they won't be stuck for business and I'd imagine priority will be given to locals.

they have a massive beer garden out the back

Thats the reason some of our fans suggested the place,

The big screen in Market Square are also showing the game live. No drinking obviously but could be a good family atmosphere for people with kids and no tickets.

Help good people of boards! Thought my ticket was sorted but it's not! Huge panic, anybody know of any spare ticket floating? Im a Dundalk fan so home ticket preferable but will take any at this stage! Any help much appreciated! been through the rough now want to experience the glory!

It was the team bus I just looked it up,garda escort was required

Ugh! There is always some fly in the ointment. It is not by any means beyond the bounds of possibility that there is some truth to this but...ive read about golf balls being thrown at or in to the the corks fans in the away secton, lit flares being thrown over a wall in to the away section, Dundalk fans 'goading' Cork fans after FT as the Cork fans waited to applaud the trophy presentation, supporters buses being stoned or attacked in some way, that the Cork team coach was vandalised while parked at Oriel during the game, and finally now that the team coach was attacked and needed a police escort out of town.

Funny thing is I was in Oriel too, on the pitch post match celebration, certainly saw no flares going off again what ever about other allegations, walked past the Cork team coach on the way to the Lilywhite and was stll fully intact, the same when I left Oriel not long after and there were damn all fans around who had not found themselves a place to get beered up I presume. It wouldnt be unusual for a team coach to be escorted to the M1 either as some kinda protocal maybe. Cork fans I met up town absolutely mentioned none of these incidents whch would be surprising if they knew - sound bunch they all were. Dundalk fans seemed far too preoccupied with celebrations of which Im sure there are still many going on at this early hour.

So all this tripe aside what a night it was! Weather was ideal so no grumbles about the open nature of Oriel. Full house and super atmosphere from long before KO. Full away section, Temporary stand spruced up the old place and just maybe we have got a few floating fans to become regulars. Football wasnt vintage but oh how we have been spoiled to even consider that it was at all scrappy consdering what was at stake. Having Skip back and scoring when 5 or 6 months ago he was told his career was over. Higgo was my man of the match, he was everywhere and played a defensive role as well as playing a bit of ball. Bit disappointed in Towell this evening tbh. Gannon, the couple of times he got forward the skinned them so a pity he stayed back s much more than usual. Didnt see the handball shout prior to O Donnells goal.

Cant bloody sleep as i'm still hyper. Was looking forward to whatching back on RTE PLAYER but the effers havent the game up yet...I thought games went up a few hours after FT:mad:

Well done to both sides. Appears hard fought. Was out for a run that direction last night and there was a great atmosphere about. Delighted for them

All the highlights from Fridays match
