Presumably because there is nothing better or more important happening.

Their staff might as well be doing something.

Worth 2 million to them I think? To put in context they got 100,000 euro for winning the league last year. Meanwhile the Irish Football CEO pays himself 450k a year! Amazing result against Champs League regulars.

Bet they're rubbish at making tractors compared to BATE though.

Someone just posted,"the last time that amount of money came to Dundalk, it was followed by a fleet of sirens".  Irish humour at its best.

According to RTE worth 5.7m to them with another 12m if they win the next game.

Fantastic stuff. A couple of my best friends are from "The Town" so they're well chuffed.

Lots of pictures on Twitter tonight of the Olympic Stadium. The seating layout looks messy with some 'retractable' seats, and of course it looks miles away from the pitch.

It's a sell out, 54,000.

Is that the capacity for the PL?

Perhaps including the "neutral end"?

No it will be more than that, but tonight they've had to close some seats and weren't allowed the full attendance because it's the first game.
