abouttobebanned

20th July

Tickets on sale on Friday.

If you're into that kind if thing.

ziedth

Be worth a few quid to the club. from what I hear its €30 a ticket. Mrs Ziedth is a Liverpool fan. must see can I get two.

kensutz

€15 a ticket

Gary Wyse announces on his Facebook that it will be the full Liverpool team. Even though liverpool will be in singapore and they told Waterford that they will let them know what players will be available "closer to the time".

He loses the run of himself on that Facebook page sometimes.

kensutz

To be fair to him, they said on the radio it will be a full team so when people go out and buy tickets and come to see a reserve XI, you can be guaranteed it will cause mayhem!

ziedth

You'd want to be out of your mind to believe that Liverpool would send a full strenght team to this. if we're very lucky a few big names will be coming back from Injury and won't travel with the first team but still might be in good enough shape for a run out.

when are they on sale? €15 is a fairly good price.

kensutz

Starting to go on sale next Friday at the Longford game.

Daysha

They played a similar friendly against Galway last summer and their team was: Bouzainiz; Darby (Flanagan, 58), Mayinga (Cody, 66), Ayala (Wisom, 58), Robinson; Amoo, Cooper (Kacamiklic, 46), Irwin, Ince; Fernandez, Saric (Roberts, 69).

That said it's still a nice coup for the club and god knows they could do with a decent crowd and get some money in the bank.

What stupid timing " whole of the moon " and the like.

Boooourns

Don't expect any of the first teamers at this, it'll be the youths who are highly rated.

south

it will be the reserve team that might include one or two new signings if anyone comes in before then.

When you have this sort of mindset going to matches at the rsc you wonder why more people don't bother going out This from a Waterford utd supporters forum:: .http://btid.net/forums/index.php?/topic/2900-lock-up-your-hubcaps/page__pid__36147#entry36147

probably posted by one of the "ultra" clowns..best ignored..they are only outta nappies a wet day.

ziedth

Does anyone remember when they played wolves(say half strength team) a good few years ago and I think we were 1-0 down till about 10/15 minutes to go and wolves brought on former spurs player with 3 Caps for England Andy Sinton who was pushing 40.

He literally danced around everyone and set up 2 if not 3 and def scored 1. He wasn't even that good a player and he made a holy show of everyone so I'd love to see what someone like Gerrard would do.

Having said that I just remembered they beat a near full strength Bolton team a couple of years previous 3-2 so it's hard to know.

kensutz

Wolves, Bolton, Southampton, The Scum to name a few who have appeared in the RSC.

Yep was at both those games. Happened at a time when United were averaging at least 3,000 per match as well.

That said my first memory of a Blues game was a friendly with Southampton around 1996. Matt le Tissier started and they only won 1-0 IIRC.

He'll be touring Asia with the first team.

Wrong! Alan Reynolds scored an absolute belter for us. 2-1 to Southampton or 1-1.

And I'm wrong too. It was 4-2 after I asked my father because all I remember is that goal!. Barry and Hale with the goals for us.

Fair enough, tbh the only thing I really remember was swarming around Matt with the lads at the end of the game looking for his autograph.

Oh of course he will I just used him to make my point of the gap between teams.

Ya Remember Dominic Iorfa Ken? I always wondered what happened to him. he was a superstar only for the fact he was so comically Lazy but managed to go on a run of like 7 goals in 6 games

kensutz

Of course I do. We played football with Haakon Johansen on the road in front of our house. I even remember back to when we played Bordeaux and Jean Tigana playing for them.

ziedth

I'm getting all misty eyed from the memories of those games. Funnily enough I remember Daryl Murphy (who is now doing fairly well in the UK) made his debut in like '02 and I swore blind to the lads that he wouln't play anymore then a handful of games because he couldn't finish, he went on to score like 60 goals.

He def had the last laugh as I saw him score in the last minute against spurs at White Hart Lane years later.

kensutz

Scored against Norwich too and apologised to me at the final whistle Don't forget Hunty too.

he was some talent. Cocky little fella but christ I have always said the best player i have ever been on the same pitch as by a great distance.

I'll be very surprised if we don't seem him have a run in the premiership at some stage. Hopefully reading go up next year.

I presume you mean Man U as the scum.Waterford played them in Kilcohen not the RSC.Not sure of the year but Ferguson was not long after taking over.I think UTD won 3-0.

ziedth

I'd say he means Ipswich somehow.

Jasus i remeber him, Nigerian lad, he went on that run when there was a goal and win bonus paid out to keep us up that year, and keep us up they surely did! haha

At the same time me and my buddies had a song for a scandanavian lad called Trond...

Handsome Trond , the next James Bond!

They were brilliant times.

Boooourns

I'm also looking forward to seeing that lad who posted that sh!te on the Waterford utd site turning up and having a go at all the Liverpool fans. He'll be probably tucked up in bed by then though.

jurahnimoh

Is there any way of getting tickets for this game without having to travel to waterford?

He's actually a middle aged 'man' afaik
He's always **** stirring so I hope no one takes any notice. Us blues fans are very welcoming to the Barstoolers and will gladly take there money.

Tickets can only be got at the Waterford Utd home games. Possibly also at the club office closer to the date but best to get down to the RSC on friday and pay at the gate, get your Lfc ticket and watch the blues vs Longford game

Are you sure,I thought Micheal Downey of Dunagrvan area scored one of the goals ? If I remember correctly he had a stormer of a game and Southampton were to take him on trial but he broke a leg and that finished that.

kayevajo

i fully expect thousands at this match. as its liverpool`s only away game in europe this season!!

According to one of the websites I checked it had Barry and Hale down as the scorers. Downey had a great few seasons for the Blues until he broke his leg but he definitely didn't score against Southampton. I can still remember that screamer though flying into the net.

Quite funny how you're automatically thought to be a supporter of the "big teams" But yeah, I have sense to support a different team.

Waterford played Man U in Kilcohan in 1985. Even though I was a nipper I can vividly remember the poster with Waterford United the winners of the First Division against Manchester United the winners of the English League Division 1. Mark Hughes scored a couple of goals for Man U and they won 4-0. I was brought in to the Man U dressing rooms after the game and have photos somewhere of me with the players.

abouttobebanned

Hmmm 85? They also played in 91 and won 4-0...

kensutz

Ah I was thinking of 85 for a different game . But yeah it was later, all this talk of pre-season friendlies is giving me a kick up the backside to dig out all the programmes from the games.

SillyMcCarthy

It will be a great coup for the club regardless of who turns out for Liverpool!
Although not a fan of Liverpool I'll definately be there to see some stars of the future. It should be a great night!

I was at that game too, Hughes acted the bollox throughout.
Did Arsenal play there as well? could be wrong.

Arsenal played there in '86 or '87, just after Charlie Nicholas signed, though he wasn't in the squad. Niall Quinn played.

Game finished 1-1. Martin Hayes with a diving header for us and Paul Cashin with the equalising penalty for Waterford

This game has been added to the official Liverpool site, and it's confirmed that it will be the reserve team.

They played 2 friendlies in consecutive summers at the RSC, the first one was 4-2 (Brian Barry screamer) the second game was a 1-0 borefest!
