Most may have thought Saturday's game at the Aviva was the only 90 minutes of football they'd see in the flesh this weekend but the lure of the SSE Airtricity League (plus some clever marketing) meant that many of the Tartan Army pitched up at Dalymount Park and Richmond Park for Friday's night's football.

At Richmond Park, St Patrick's Athletic had the clever idea of 'Free Kilt Friday' and it certainly paid off as Scottish fans made their way to Inchicore for the game against Limerick.
These lads even got the VIP treatment from the club. The Scottish branch of the St Pat's fan club just got a little bit bigger.
