Irish Football 14/15 September..thats this weekend

applehunter

Friday
Cork City vs Longford...Home
Waterford vs Bohs..Away
Drogheda vs Derry City ar TG4 ..Away
St. Pats vs Bray..Home
Shamrock Rovers vs Galway..Draw

...and big 1st division game Finn Harps vs Dundalk...Home

Sat
Sligo vs UCD...Home

I think Drogheda will continue to stumble to their title but Rovers won't take advantage.

Expect Cork to give Longford a wake up call. Longford missing Dave Mooney while City could be about to go on a roll ala 2004.

From a betting point of view 8/13 on Cork City at SBoilsports is stand out and I will be taking a large piece of that.

OhNoYouDidn't

on what possible basis are you giving Galway a draw?

applehunter

They have got some good results away from home recently. 2-2 with Drogheda, 0-0 with Cork.

They have Stephen O'Flynn back and overall look like a team on the up.

If the match in Terryland is anything to go by then there isnt much between the sides.

14 Sep 2007
Finn Harps v Dundalk
Kilkenny City v Athlone Town
Limerick 37 v Cobh Ramblersk
Wexford Youths v Monaghan United

15 Sep 2007
Kildare County v Shelbourne


16 Sep 2007
Wexford Youths v Limerick 37

Dundalk on a terrible run atm, so the trip to deepest darkest Donegal is not looking nice. I'll definitely call a win for Harps here.

KK are the worst team in the history of football. No problem for a decent Athlone team.

Limerick aren't very good at the minute, and Cobh will be pushing for the title. Cobh win.

Wexford Young Boys entertain Monaghan. I reckon a draw.

Shels to take Kildare. An away game I can actually get to, so they better win:cool:

Then on Sunday WYB take on L37. I reckon a WYB win.

Credible results against two teams with euro hangovers, thats the key.....

What about the match in Tolka where we hammered them?

:eek: Athlone are shite! 2 wins in 15 games and they've lost 9 away games in a row! Kilkenny are shite as well alright but its hard to know whos shiter at the moment. The last time they played it ended in a shite 1-1 draw. Should be a shite game. Draw.

You're right about Dundalk though. Last thing we need is a trip to the most in form side in the league. Only glimmer of hope is we tend to play well against them and we haven't lost to them in ages. Improved performance from Dundalk but a narrow defeat nonetheless.:(

Kildare Shels looks a bit drawy, although the 2/1 on offer is tempting for a home win.

Reckon Mons can beat Wexford boys, they're in good form lately and have won 4 and drawn 1 of their last 7.

Hammered them, you scored a winner in the 87th minute and won 1-0! Do you know what hammered means?

Hmm, I've seen them three times this season. They aren't actually that bad. No, they'll beat KK.

No way, we'll definitely win this weekend.

You sure you're just not compensating for last weeks pessimism? Kildare are brilliant don't you know. They hammered Dundalk last week! (No smart comments please )

They haven't beaten us this season, and we've improved our squad a LOT since we played them last.

As for last week, my pessimism was well placed given our injuries/suspensions/non-suspensions.

As for County hammering Dundalk last week, well, Dundalk are on such a bad run at the moment.

What happened up there?

Philly Hughes out of form, Shaun Williams(our best player by far this season) getting injured4 or 5 weeeks ago. Crawley playing centre back for a while due to injuries, missed him getting forward up the wings.

Williams back soon so hopefully we can finish well and sneak 2nd place and then beat Waterford again in a playoff and finally return to the promised land.

But Robbie Doyle came in no? Legend in his own mind that lad.

You should have stopped there. Brutal player.

It'll be Longford in the playoff imo. And they'll beat whatever team is in the playoff.

Really looking forward to Saturday's game in Newbridge.

A local derby for us??!?!?!? :eek:

3-0 win for the Reds. :cool:

Pighead

Put your money on Harps tonight @Evens men. No Williams, no Crawley, no Lynch no chance. Nice price for Harps. Being from Dundalk it pains me to bet against my own team but Pigheads got bills to pay!

:rolleyes:

Jersey trouble in Waherfur.

Ref decided Bohs away jersey was too similar to Waterford's one, so Waterford got in touch with a local junior team for a lend.

Bohs refused to wear them because, and this is brilliant, they were green and white hoops:D

KdjaCL

pats 3 up



Bohs wore the same strips in the last game vs waterford, its the blue trim on the jerseys :eek:

4 - 0

you arent very good at this

applehunter

Got 3 from 6.

Easy afterwards smartass.

Will yee beat Bohs on Monday?

Apparently they refused to wear Hooped jerseys tonight in Waterford after a Waterford secured them from a local junior club and had to play in Waterford's away kit.

I don't know if that is honorable or just stupid.

It wasnt afterwards. I picked that one out as strange during the week.

Yes we will beat the black and tan filth. Owe them one and Blackie Connors is in the process of being found out big time. If Bohs did it, its small time and minnow behaviour.

DSB

4-1 win will do nicely.

Shels beat Kildare County 4-1 last night.

Mark Leech had a superb game, scoring two (one was a fantastic lob from 25 yards) and making one for Bisto Flood. Chambers opened the scoring.

I'd love to see a league table of the second half of the season.

KdjaCL

Did Haverty get on?

Not even on the bench.

Odd you lot worship anto flood one of the worst players ever to play for us, and the best player we have ever brought tru the youths cant even get onto the bench

Why did Keely ask for him.

Anto Flood is a very good player and always gets stuck in for the team.

Er, it's the first division, he scored five in three games earlier in the season. It's easy to see why he's been popular.

Keely gets a lot out of him, he's always on his back during games, making him work hard. I'd say he can be a lazy fecker sometimes, but he's a real handful for defenders, arms and legs all over the place when he's been marked closely.

Meh, I couldn't care less what he did or didn't do for you lot, he's doing the biz for us at the moment, that's all that matters.

As for Haverty, I haven't an idea why he's at the club. We could do without the loanees tbh, need to play players who will be with us next season.

Apart from Leechy, he can play all he wants.:D

Just like Richie Foran wasn't good enough for youse either.

Some really well taken goals last night.

Bozos 0 Rovers 2.

Typical run of the mill win for title chasers over mid table makeweights.

I really hope Shamrock Rovers don't win the league.

Ronan|Raven

Indeed, hard enough to listen to them at the best of times, that and I have a financial interest in Drogs winning the league.

If you prefer to see an team of mercenaries paid for by reckless and unsustainable debt win over a local young team of fans of the club run on budget with a social charter thats your call.
