According to Irish journos on twitter and the rte website we're due to play a friendly at Thomond Park in Limerick on 5th August. Might be of interest to some of the Irish blues on here

Nice - an excuse to go for a pint in Limerick.
Vs who? Any idea?
Edit:
Yes, I'm a lazy bollocks - it's vs Limerick (surprisingly)

There once was a man from Darjeeling
Who went on a bus bound for Ealing
When he read on the door
Don't spit on the floor
He stood up and spit at the ceiling
Only limerick I know. Learnt it in English class in school when I was about ten and it's been stuck ever since.

City boss Roberto Mancini will take a full strength squad, set to feature Mario Balotelli, David Silva, Samir Nasri and Joe Hart, to take on the Airtricity League First Division side...
So now a friendly away to Limerick is more important than most League Cup fixtures?

If it was the central fixture of 3 in a 6 day period I think maybe we'd be seeing the EDS team. You know this, why are you being daft?

There once was a team called city,
Whos female fans were quite pretty,
They all loved to tease,
and watch city win with ease,
then promptly bare their nice tities

There once was a red nosed old soak,
Liked to claim that the Blues were a joke,
Said the scummers were fine,
Wouldn't lose in his lifetime,
Now he looks like he's having a stroke.

It's 24 hours after a match in Germany, and 7 days before we compete for our first piece of silverware. I also doubt it'll be our last pre-season game, in spite of what the club have said.

There was a young lady from Gorton
Who had a big tit and a small one
But to make up for that
She had a hairy great
And fart like a 650 Norton
