    Being away to UCD on the first game of the season is like getting a great toy at Christmas but the batteries were forgotten.

    Don't think we have ever had an easy ride there. Ill be happy enough as long as we do not lose.

    We are completely decimated with injuries and suspensions for our game against Rovers. Shame, as with our first choice 11 I really fancied us to give Rovers a good go, and we play nice ball under Cooke so it would have been good for the tv cameras as well. As it is it'll be a backs to the wall, 4-5-1 at home job (we only have 1 striker available :()

    Still, can't wait!!

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    RTE wanted it, but the gantry in Tolka isn't up to standard and supposedly would have cost €30,000 to be sorted according to our chairman last night at the Fans' Forum.

    Sligo didn't want to be included in the first four televised games apparently.

    And is it true that Tolka cannot be used for outside broadcasts anymore because the gantry is not safe?

    Edit: sorry just spotted Gav's post.

    Why would anyone want to be the home team on TV. You will lose at the gate and the FAI keep the money paid by RTE as compensation now, don't they? There is nothing to gain by being on TV.

    They can keep the cameras out of the Showgrounds all season for all I care.

    One of the benefits (maybe the only one now) is more exposure for your sponsors-those on your kit and around the ground.

    According to a member of our board they weren't contacted by RTE or the FAI in relation to this.

    The club signed players in the time we had no manager, I don't think we'd be unable to make a small decision like that.

    With all due respect your board confirmed Cook was definitely staying a couple of days before he went not so long ago. Funnily enough it was around the same time RTE would have been discussing what fixtures to televise. This rumour definitely has legs, there are too many good sources leaking the story for there not to be some truth in it IMO. I'm not saying the member of your board who denied it is lying but with the turmoil at board level in recent weeks maybe he is unaware of other board member(s) receiving a phone call from RTE/FAI and forgetting to call back.

    You should familiarise yourself with that division. As per Derry, it is the punishment for paying players illegally.
