It would be simpler if we just signed the entire Cork squad and became Readingcork FC - Bigger crowds, Irish sponsorship interest and a Premiership sized squad to boot ! :lol:

Turners Cross only holds about 9000 - tickets could be a problem.

Thanks xtreme, will be excellent, how many away supporters can Cork handle?

By the summer it'll be all seated, just over 7000 seats....though its been known that many can fill the corners as well by standing.

Lived in Ireland for nearly three years and Cork is a cracking city. Guaranteed good times. West Cork has some of the most stunning coastline I have seen anywhere. Try to get to Kinsale and Skibbereen. Picturesque and just more pubs than you could ever do in a pub crawl. B&Bs are cheap and naturally a f*ck-off Irish breakfast as well.

May even think about making that trip myself.

nothing on page 53 aside from one or two more quotes from Beno, speculation on the fee and add-ons and potential dates for the friendly.

Nice one I'm looking forward to this big time.

Will we be well received, after nicking half your squad ?
