Replying To clondalkindub: "What happens if the Ireland game goes to extra time and peno's will the Leinster council delay the start of the Kildare Westmeath game????" I'd imagine so. The stadium will be empty until the soccer is over so they can make the same call on the day as they do when there's traffic issues. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5012 - 23/06/2016 10:58:32 1871082 Link
Why werent both games originally set for Saturday? Most fans travelling hate Sunday games. JayP (Dublin) - Posts: 1772 - 23/06/2016 11:22:14 1871099 Link
Interesting question. Here is hoping, I'd take extra time now if it was offered. Spare a thought for westmeath and Kildare players in all of this though Frederick (Louth) - Posts: 479 - 23/06/2016 13:48:19 1871180 Link
Replying To JayP: "Why werent both games originally set for Saturday? Most fans travelling hate Sunday games." Are you serious about travelling fans hating Sunday games? I can only speak for myself and my mates but we find Saturday games an awful inconvenience as all of us work on that day. neverright (Roscommon) - Posts: 1648 - 23/06/2016 16:08:10 1871263 Link

I way prefer Saturday games have few scoops after and not have worry about work next day. Pingcity (Longford) - Posts: 568 - 23/06/2016 16:36:53 1871273 Link
Replying To Pingcity: "I way prefer Saturday games have few scoops after and not have worry about work next day." I'd have to say the same. . But can I ask. . Why the hell aren't the Mondays after the hurling and football All-Ireland Finals Bank Holidays??? Productivity must be low on those days anyway - they're bloody Mondays! cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5012 - 23/06/2016 17:12:24 1871282 Link
They're showing it on the big screen in Croker so it shouldn't be a big deal either way. keeper7 (Longford) - Posts: 4088 - 23/06/2016 19:06:10 1871321 Link

It then leaves more time for club championship. Whammo86 (Antrim) - Posts: 4226 - 23/06/2016 19:16:47 1871323 Link

If it goes to extra time the game will go ahead at 4.15 and anyone who wants to watch Ireland there will be screens at the back of the stands butters1990 (Kildare) - Posts: 262 - 23/06/2016 20:32:00 1871356 Link
