The prestigious UEFA cup ( europa league) 20/21

Norn Iron were allowed 600 fans last night v Austria . I think these are the rules up there .

Will Dundalk be allowed 600 ???

if they are it is not the reason for the change
Hulsizer claims changing between aviva and Tallaght will cost him 50k
id also think its cheaper to open windsor park then the aviva - win win for Bill tbh
plus he is mad to get stuck into the aviva ( previously wanted to buy the FAIs stake i think) and there may be history there with him and the irfu
id imagine IFA are delighted , its extra cash

In short - Bill hates the IRFU

FUCK THE IRFU

Do Linfield “own“ WP ?? I was of the understanding they get rent from the IFA and it is why they are resented among even other PUL teams .

No, its because Dundalk have a shit stadium where they haven’t invested any money

Hard to invest money when the FAI have your money resting in their account

i honestly dont know- they are seen to be the "pre eminent " club tho

sigh

Was it the same when internationals were played in Dalymount?

I think so .

Linfield own Windsor and the North have a long term deal with them where they pay them £200k a year. There’s actually a Linfield club shop in the stadium.

re: Oriel
as far as i can see , Hullsizer has no intention of putting a shekel into oriel , he wanted to get Dundalk to play at the Aviva and had this idea where he would lay on trains for the fans.
Bill is in full franchise mode really, he could up sticks and move the club or “franchise” to Andorra if he felt their FA would get behind a side who they can consistently get to the group stages of the CL

Beitar are at this too, they are in cahoots with the Arabs in UAE about pumping a load of money into the club and making it the “jewish” representation in the CL, bizarre given they refuse to sign Arab players but money talks and Israel’s new relations with UAE and Bahrian certainly have kicked this off

I was at every game of the 2012/13 season when Arkady Gaydamak ( the then beitar owner and candidate for mayor of jerualem) signed the Chechen players who were Moslems, the fans boycotted the games and the clubs trophy room was burnt down, Ariel Harush the keeper recieved death threats. I remember when one of the Chechens scored against Macabi Netanya the fans got up and left the ground , i have never been at anything like this ( its all documented in the movie Forever Pure).
Anyway now an Israeli international player albeit an arab, Dia Saba has signed for a club in the UAE so you can see where this is going

Interesting story last week about a youth team rival called Tom Brewitt who deliberately hobbled Cleary in training to try to get a first team game at Liverpool

Bitton, Elhamed and Edouard still absent for Covid related reasons, although the latter was back in training yesterday. Forrest and Jullien will also be missing. Lennon said Jullien has inflammation at the base of his spine and will be out for another few weeks. Christie is available again. I think Celtic should revert to a back four tonight given rather than using the sixth choice centre back in a back three.

Yep. Brewitt came out and talked about it on some podcast. What a fucking nasty thing to do. In the end Jose Enrique played instead of either of them.

@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy - what channel is the Dundalk game on?
