18:11....As per usual Alan Dooley is the first man at his station, reporting tonight from Terryland, after making the quick dart from The Showgrounds last night. So over to Alan for his initial thoughts: "I can confirm that Cork are out chatting on the pitch and Paul Doolin has meticulously checked that both penalty spots are the correct distance from the goals. I think he was satisfied. The weather is bright and breezy. Doolin is now perched on an advertising hoarding chatting to Foster behind the goals. The men in black have just arrived as well." So we are all set to rumble in Terryland.
18:10....Hello and welcome. Gareth here for the evening. Glorious day here at Extratime HQ. Looking forward to a great night of action. We shall go with blue times today.

19:41.... Alan Dooley has been joined in Galway by Grace Uhr, our Extratime crack team in Galway/Mervue coverage. We are minutes away from 3 more games springing into life. In the meantime, join in, email me.
19:39.... Galway retired to dressing rooms.....Cork still out doing shooting practise. I have been asked to include the team name when talking about players, so if you see excessive usage of team names, you know why. The public demand it.
19:37.... For Wexford, Peter White playing in the middle of a 4-4-2 with Dempsey. Seven minutes gone and Doyle heads a Vicker's corss over after good work by the 17 year old. It looked easier to score alas. Our man in Wexford is Conor Meagher.
19:32.... All the lineups are locked and loaded. Wexford kicks off at the more family friendly hour of 7:30. It's time for action!!
19:25.... Ok, all the teams are in bar the Shelbourne game now. Madden makes an appearance on the bench for Bohs returning from his Shels loan spell. Byrne and Ndo up front. In Wexford Gavin Doyle is NOT on holidays anymore, despite all reports, including our own saying he was. Cunning ploy by Wexford, or just an early flight, who knows.
19:13.... The Derry City and Dundalk lineups are in, as well as the Galway and Cork lineups. News is Collins and Williams start for Dundalk.
19:01.... Not fully clear if Alex Williams and Mickey Collins are eligible to play. It appears from the talk at the ground in Dundalk they are clear.
18:50.... So Andy Roddick knocks out Andy Murray to advance to the Wimbledon final. Any thoughts on Wimbledon out there? Or the Lions clash tomorrow? Or even will Dublin's hurlers put it up to Kilkenny this weekend, or get destroyed? Email me at extratimelive@gmail.com with yoru thoughts. Remember to include your name and location!!
Next week, from Monday, you will have a chance to win yourself a pair of tickets to the Leeds United friendly against Shelbourne. Keep an eye on Extratime throughout the week for ticket giveaways.
18:32.... For those interested, Tom is in Galway tonight, fresh from his travels to Sligo last night. We are one hour away from the first game and I am promised Wexford teams early. I wait in hope.
18:12.... A quick run around who is covering what tonight. In Bray we have Finbarr O'Sullivan. Dundalk will be manned by Martin Nicholas. Galway is in the capable hands of Alan Dooley. Onto the First division, we have Fintan Cassidy covering Shelbourne whilst down in the sunny South East, Conor Meagher is reporting for us there. I'm in HQ tonight, I being Gareth Penrose. Aloha.
18:11....As per usual Alan Dooley is the first man at his station, reporting tonight from Terryland, after making the quick dart from The Showgrounds last night. So over to Alan for his initial thoughts: "I can confirm that Cork are out chatting on the pitch and Paul Doolin has meticulously checked that both penalty spots are the correct distance from the goals. I think he was satisfied. The weather is bright and breezy. Doolin is now perched on an advertising hoarding chatting to Foster behind the goals. The men in black have just arrived as well." So we are all set to rumble in Terryland.
18:10....Hello and welcome. Gareth here for the evening. Glorious day here at Extratime HQ. Looking forward to a great night of action. We shall go with blue times today.
