Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 5 July, 2019 Posted 5 July, 2019 (edited) I know some of the squad are coming to Ireland for pre-season training between July 22nd and 26th. Does anybody know where they'll be based? Edited 5 July, 2019 by Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd
Cabbage_Face Posted 5 July, 2019 Posted 5 July, 2019 I really hate to do this to you, Alan, but it's actually a song about... Yeah, bloody Sunday is actually about a massacre in Derry in 1972. A massacre? Ugh. I'm not playing that again.
woodsaint Posted 5 July, 2019 Posted 5 July, 2019 Hoping they arrange a game against a local side. Bit odd to come for a weeks training and not play anybody (hardly a glamorous warm weather camp either). Perhaps because the LOI season is ongoing theyre establishing who is best placed to play them with only a few days rest
benjii Posted 6 July, 2019 Posted 6 July, 2019 How is Adam Clayton? Adam Clayton is fine. The Edge is fine.
Red Posted 6 July, 2019 Posted 6 July, 2019 Local rumor is they might play Bray. Will dig around and update if I can find anything more.
skintsaint Posted 6 July, 2019 Posted 6 July, 2019 Local rumor is they might play Bray. Will dig around and update if I can find anything more. Is that near Skibbereen?
LGTL Posted 6 July, 2019 Posted 6 July, 2019 Is that near Skibbereen? Not really, about a 4 hour drive. I'm in Ireland from the 24th for my Wedding in early August, hoping to catch a game!
Red Posted 6 July, 2019 Posted 6 July, 2019 Is that near Skibbereen? 30 mins (approx 20 miles) south of Dublin
VectisSaint Posted 6 July, 2019 Posted 6 July, 2019 Adam Clayton is fine. The Edge is fine. What about Bonio?
benjii Posted 6 July, 2019 Posted 6 July, 2019 What about Bonio? B O L L O C K S!! You don’t know Bono!
Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 22 July, 2019 Author Posted 22 July, 2019 Any update on this? I know they're due over today. Just wondered if anybody knows where they're staying / training or if they've got a local game arranged?
Dr. Kucho Posted 22 July, 2019 Posted 22 July, 2019 Who’s doing the training sessions as RH is going to Macau with the other group?
millsy Posted 24 July, 2019 Posted 24 July, 2019 Any update on this? I know they're due over today. Just wondered if anybody knows where they're staying / training or if they've got a local game arranged? Carton House near Dublin
Psycrow Posted 24 July, 2019 Posted 24 July, 2019 Irish Saints fan here, as some of you may know. I don't care where they're staying. I don't want to turn up to Carton House like a drooling fanboy. If there's a local game happening though, I do want to go. Anyone have any idea if it's happening?

I'm sure it would have been announced if it was happening. Carton House is in Kildare, about 30 mins drive from Dublin. The place is fenced off for training sessions so the chances of seeing anything are slim.

If anything there may be one behind closed doors
John Boy Saint Posted 25 July, 2019 Posted 25 July, 2019 Doubt it, been there a few days and no mention of a game. If anything there may be one behind closed doors So best have a drive about and look out for the blokes with scouse and Lancashire accents in camouflage armed with binoculars and video cameras (a la Leeds) as they will have found a good spot up a tree!
suewhistle Posted 25 July, 2019 Posted 25 July, 2019 The video and photographs on the OS show them working hard but having a bit of fun too. Lots of sprinting and finishing practice. Boufal and Reed both in evidence. Not sure any conclusions can be drawn except H is very hands on.

Boufal and Reed both in evidence. Not sure any conclusions can be drawn except H is very hands on. No sign of Ward-Prowse in Dublin, or Stephens for that matter. Danny Rohl remains conspicuous by his absence. I note that some of last season's loanees now appear on the OS, Cedric, Hoedt, Boufal and Reed specifically. Hoedt even shown in a 2019/20 shirt. No sign of Carrillo, Chas and Mario both still there.
suewhistle Posted 25 July, 2019 Posted 25 July, 2019 At least Romeu has turned up in today's pics: perhaps he's been injured as he appears to be training alone. Perhaps he had too good a holiday in San Sebastian hitting the pintxos or more likely some banal injury. I prefer the first idea though.
