Previous meetings • The Russian team came from behind to win 2-1 when the clubs met for the first time in UEFA competition on matchday three. • Only seven games have been played between Russian and Irish sides in UEFA club competition, with the Russians winning six to the Irish representatives' one. • Dublin outfit Shamrock Rovers lost 3-0 at home and 4-1 away to Rubin Kazan in their pioneering 2011/12 UEFA Europa League campaign. Form guide • Zenit, Shakhtar Donetsk and Schalke come into matchday four with nine points. • Zenit are the group stage's top scorers with 11 goals – an average of 3.67 per game. • Zenit are 15 home matches unbeaten in the UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League (W13 D2) since a 1-0 quarter- final defeat by Bayer Leverkusen in April 2008. They have never lost a UEFA Cup or UEFA Europa League group stage home fixture (W7 D3). • Dundalk have not won in four European away games this term, though three of those fixtures ended in creditable draws. • UEFA Cup winners in 2008, Zenit have progressed in three of their four previous UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group campaigns. In 2010/11 they won all six matches. • Dundalk are making their UEFA group stage debut. The lone Irish side to have previously graced a UEFA Europa League group stage were Shamrock Rovers, who lost all six of their fixtures in 2011/12. Dundalk were thus the first Irish side to draw, and then win, a UEFA group stage match at this level. Links and trivia • The journey from Dundalk to St Petersburg is about 2,300km. • This will be Zenit's 150th UEFA club competition game; the previous 149 ended W77 D28 L44. • Zenit boast two of the group stage's three-goal top scorers in Giuliano and Aleksandar Kokorin. Giuliano leads the golden boot race since he has the most assists: four. • Dundalk clinched a third consecutive Irish title on 23 October, with a 2-1 win against Bohemians guaranteeing them top spot with two games to spare. They will secure a second successive double if they beat Cork City in the Irish Cup final on 6 November. • Dundalk defender Brian Gartland turns 30 the day after the match. The coaches • Mircea Lucescu took charge of Zenit this summer, the 71-year-old Romanian ending a 12-year spell at Shakhtar in which he picked up eight Ukrainian titles and the 2008/09 UEFA Cup. He previously won Turkish championships with Beşiktaş and Galatasaray. • Lucescu is the most experienced coach in the 2016/17 competition; this will be his 218th UEFA club fixture. • Dundalk boss Stephen Kenny started his managerial career with Longford Town, aged 27, and landed a league title with Bohemians in 2002/03, aged 32. Hired by Dundalk in 2013, he steered the club to Irish championships in 2014 and 2015. 3 FC Zenit - Dundalk FC Thursday 3 November 2016 - 19.00CET (21.00 local time) Match press kit Stadion Petrovskiy, St Petersburg Team facts FC Zenit Formed: 1925 Nickname: Sine-belo-golubye (Blue-White-Sky Blues) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Cup (1): 2008 • UEFA Super Cup (1): 2008 Domestic honours (latest triumph in brackets) League title: 5 (2015) USSR/Russian Cup: 4 (2016) Ten-year European record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless otherwise indicated) 2015/16: UEFA Champions League round of 16 2014/15: quarter-finals (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2013/14: UEFA Champions League round of 16 2012/13: round of 16 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2011/12: UEFA Champions League round of 16 2010/11: round of 16 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League play-offs) 2009/10: play-offs 2008/09: round of 16 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2007/08: winners 2006/07: did not compete in UEFA club competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 8-0: Zenit v FC Encamp 29/08/02, UEFA Cup qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 0-5: FC Encamp v Zenit 15/08/02, UEFA Cup qualifying round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Zenit v Bologna FC 16/09/99, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 5-0 twice, most recently v VfB Stuttgart 01/11/89, UEFA Cup second round second leg UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 8-0: Zenit v FC Encamp (see above) • Biggest away win 0-5: FC Encamp v Zenit (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Zenit v Bologna FC (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 5-0: VfB Stuttgart v Zenit (see above) Dundalk FC Formed: 1903 Nickname: Lilywhites UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • None Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 11 (2015) Irish Cup: 10 (2015) 4 FC Zenit - Dundalk FC Thursday 3 November 2016 - 19.00CET (21.00 local time) Match press kit Stadion Petrovskiy, St Petersburg Ten-year record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2015/16: UEFA Champions League second qualifying round 2014/15: second qualifying round 2013/14: did not take part in UEFA competition 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA competition 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA competition 2010/11: second qualifying round 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA competition 2008/09: did not take part in UEFA competition 2007/08: did not take part in UEFA competition 2006/07: did not take part in UEFA competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 4-0: Dundalk v Fram Reykjavík 30/09/81, European Cup Winners' Cup first round second leg • Biggest away win 0-2: AS Jeunesse Esch v Dundalk 01/07/14, UEFA Europa League first qualifying round first leg 0-2: Linfield FC v Dundalk 05/09/79, European Champion Clubs' Cup preliminary round second leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-5: Dundalk v FK Crvena zvezda 07/09/88, European Champion Clubs' Cup first round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 8-1: Vasas SC v Dundalk 11/10/67, European Champion Clubs' Cup first round second leg UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League (group stage to final) • Biggest home win 3-1: Dundalk v AS Jeunesse Esch 10/07/14, first qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 0-2: AS Jeunesse Esch v Dundalk (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-4: Dundalk v NK Varaždin 29/08/02, qualifying round second leg • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: PFC Levski Sofia 6-0 Dundalk 15/07/10, second qualifying round first leg 5 FC Zenit - Dundalk FC Thursday 3 November 2016 - 19.00CET (21.00 local time) Match press kit Stadion Petrovskiy, St Petersburg Squad list FC Zenit Current season All-time UEL League UEL UEFA No. Player Nat.

    Seagull Scene SSE Airtricity League First Division Season 2021 Vol. 37 No. 3 WELCOME TO THE CARLISLE BRAY WANDERERS FC I would like to welcome Colin Healy and his Cork City team and club officials to the Carlisle Grounds for this ROLL OF HONOUR evening’s encounter. FAI Cup Winners (2) Both teams lie in the bottom half of the table going into this game. Wanderers have drawn four and lost once 1990, 1999 while Cork have lost their last four league games. First Division Champions (3) Wanderers have had a bit of an injury crisis so far, 1985/86, 1995/96, 1999/00 particularly amongst the forwards, where Gary Shaw First Division runners-up (2) and Darragh Lynch have both been missed. Lynch has yet to feature this season. 1990/91, 1997/98 On the plus side it was great to see Charlie Gallagher Shield Winners (1) make his first team debut in Cobh last week. Charlie is 1995/96 the latest player to come through the Academy ranks at Bray to play for the first team. Charlie was top scorer for National League B Division Champions (2) the under 17s last season. 1991/92, 1998/99 Our Academy teams returned to training this week in Enda McGuill Cup (1) preparation for the season. Only teams up to under 18 2005 can train now so the under 19s must wait a bit longer to resume training. FAI Intermediate Cup Winners (2) 1955/56, 1957/58 The viewing figures for the live streaming service of Bray Wanderers two home games so far this season FAI Junior Cup Winners (2) have been quite good.

    Dundalk Hit the Right Notes to Beat Finn Harps

    English 3rd-6th Class Developing skills of Comprehension Dundalk hit the right notes to beat Finn Harps Dundalk took a deserved three points following a comprehensive two goal victory over Finn Harps at a damp Oriel Park on Monday night. Dundalk bossed the first half and took an early lead through former Derry City attacker Patrick Mc Eleney who ghosted along the edge of the penalty area before firing a shot low into the bottom right hand corner of Ciaran Gallagher’s net on six minutes. That appeared to set the tone for a goal laden evening however this failed to materialise in the opening forty five minutes as the home side had the monopoly on possession but failed to increase their lead due to a well organised Finn Harps defence. Gallagher, who had missed the side’s first league meeting due to work commitments, was a busy man in the first half as he saved well from both John Mountney and Daryl Horgan in quick succession before referee Neil Doyle was forced to intervene and ask the net minder to speed up his set pieces. Just on the stroke of half time Dundalk almost increased their lead but Paddy Barrett’s close range header from an inswinging free kick thumped the crossbar and Harps escaped further punishment. The second half began in a subdued manner as Ruairí Keating departed the field on a stretcher in the 52nd minute and his replacement David Scully was one of five Harps players booked in the second half. Manager Ollie Horgan was sent to the stand for protesting following the booking of Gallagher for timewasting in the 68th minute and his name sake Daryl put the game to bed less than ten minutes later as he rifled the ball home from ten yards following Dundalk pressure down the right.
