BP1960 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) New route by air.. https://www.flybe.com/web-app/index.html Free flights offer too in today's M.E.N www.southendairport/manchester * As mentioned though this match could be postponed due to international call ups.

unsworthlatic Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Think this one will be postponed to be honest. Placide may well be playing for Haiti away to Macedonia, Ruddy will be called up, as will Dummigan so there's 3. Potentially Byrne to ROI under 21s and unsure whether Nepomuceno's Curacao have a game. Unfortunately I've booked trains in train sale so no doubt I'll be scrambling for a non league game in London that day! Suggestions welcome!

MAC0AFC Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) I know of a group of 12/14 lads booked on flights a few months ago, only for us to sign a load of internationals and now risk of watching Bilericay.

Suggestions welcome! not so sure Haiti are playing....Macedonia appear to be at home to Norway that weekend. Also, ROI u21's only play on the Tuesday I think so Byrne probably ok. No idea on Curacao!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saw something on a Haiti football website that they may be playing Macedonia, hope not! As for Byrne hope he doesn't get put on the standby list once again but either way should be fine for the game! Curacao I couldn't find a fixture for, looks like the game may go ahead then! Although saw something extremely surprising that ROI are keeping tabs on Eoin Doyle following recent form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his post match interview the other night Richie talked about the players giving one last push on Saturday before there are 3 weeks without a league game, giving him an opportunity to give squad players a run out in the cup games. Sounds like he is expecting the game to be off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcshuck Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 It's the week before the main body of internationals. Usually in cases like this, we only postpone one game, as some/most of the lads will join up after the Saturday game. So if we were to call one off due to international call up's wouldn't it be the 18th November against Rochdale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising if you've seen Shane Long in front of goal recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al_bro Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 RW stated again today that he would like the game postponed if necessary. But as andy.b says it causes another midweek game, which would be better avoided in my view. It depends who's called up though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
