Seems like a strange move to play this 3 days after Newcastle game, but if we win 6 of our 8 remaining league matches, this could be one hell of a party

[Maldini]

If it does happen it'll probably be without any of the players going to the World Cup

They'll all be like Flintoff after the '05 Ashes.

They get a week or two before meeting up for the WC usually?

Be some party if the stars align.

"#LFC will field a first team squad barring any injuries or selection for national team duty for the upcoming World Cup"

I remember going to see Liverpool play in Tolka Park in about 1992 or 1993, Friday night game. Was against Shels (I think...). Anyway, Liverpool won, pretty sure Redknapp scored (girl in front of me screaming out "Kiss me Jamie! Lick me Jamie! PISS ON ME JAMIE!") but my favourite memory is before the game started Stevie Nicol spewing from a first floor window in the old club house on the other side of the pitch, down on to the ground below, where a few fans were milling about. I don't think it was food poisoning.

That's Agger, Skrtel and Allen in then.. Maybe Lucas and Coutinho if Scolari continues to over look them.

Won't see the front lads at all.

That was a mental night. As many fans in there as there was outside.

Bloody freezing too but got to see Istvan Kozma play.

Tickets are €30, kids tickets are €15

[Tonto]

Just bought mine via the FAI Season Ticket early purchase scheme.

[Duncan Disorderly]

On a feckin Wednesday night 100 miles away! Will they be over for more matches during the summer before/after the WC?

[Maldini]

If anyone is looking for tickets for this this lot are selling them cheap. Apparently this is nowhere near selling out. Supposed to be the u21 squad coming over as well. Lussey's dad over on RAWK said none of the players involved on Sunday will be coming over. I'd expect to hear a lot complaining about this on Joe Duffy on Thursday. This whole thing is really strange, three days after the end of the league, 5.30 kick off, no senior players but still charging €40-50.

[Swan Red]

I don't see the point

[Kite]

I got tickets on the basis of if we did win the league it would be a hell of a party. Not so pushed about the whole now though, have to admit!

[David Hodgson]

I don't see the point

 

It's crazy. Just so the Irish reds can get to see Aspas.

At least you're honest.

Do you want them to play in your bathroom or what?

[Maldini]

Lussey's dad must have been wrong. Coutinho, Agger and Skrtel in the squad along with Borini and Ibe. They're the only senior players involved.

No Alberto or Teixera?

[Maldini]

An Irish journo tweet they were the only senior players involved. I suppose he may not count Alberto and Texeira as senior players.

 

Lussey's dad has since said this on RAWK:

 

1st teamers confirmed for tomorrows game

 

Jones Skrtel Agger Kelly Cissokho Lucas Coutinho Aspas and Alberto. Might be a few more but they're the ones jnr knows of

No Rossiter.

And you're the font of all knowledge.

 

Have to say they're not my type.

The thread was in danger of getting interesting there for a minute.
