UCD News is the UCD FC Supporters’ Club Newsletter. It is published approximately semi-monthly, and contains player profiles, fixtures, interview, news and reviews. Oh, and a map showing where Belfield Park is. We’ll have to change that shortly. Further back issues will be added in time. Most downloads are under 150kB, except for issue 23, which is gigantic for some reason.

The newsletters are in pdf format, which can be read using a free pdf reader.

At present, all stigonline mail users are unable to send mail to hotmail addresses. That includes the UCD News service hosted by stigonline. We are effectively blacklisted, and all of our mail is treated as spam and bounced by hotmail. This is a new problem for us, but it seems we’re not unique. The article linked to there suggests what Stig has already found - working around this problem requires a hefty bank balance or the technical skill of a proper network admin. We’re looking into it, and hope to fix the problem before long. In the meantime, if you want to keep getting UCD News, send us a different email address.
