Anyone know the Tallaght area of Dublin and where the game might be on?

It's on ITV so everywhere will have it (including your hotel room). I can't say I've ver had a desire to go to a pub in Tallaght, so maybe get a Luas into town if you fancy a pint. The Leinster Lions watch games at the Wool Shed but don't know if any will bother for a midweek game that's on terrestrial TV.

Nice one, thanks

Looks like they’ve released all the unsold TV and LG.

Not everyone in Ireland gets ITV anymore. There's some retuning of boxes required depending on who your provider is.

So sounds like Ezri out 3-4 weeks with a knee strain, but Pau on the bench  and Digne getting closer - so all in all not as bad as feared

same happened shortly before the NUFC game, once they give up on people buying the expensive food/lounge/buffet package they reluctantly sell them as normal seats

Is that from the press conference?

So, with Konsa, we’ve already gone from being out for 1 or 2 matches to 3 to 4 weeks. We all know what happens next… see you next season hopefully Ezri.

If it was a league game I'd expect Torres to start - probably too much of a risk for 90mins fo cup football.

Is Hause still around?

After our respective results at the weekend I'm feeling confident. Which makes me nervous.

If you're looking for post / pre-game food, i hear Baxto's kebabs are the best in the city.
