We are hijacking a few Bingo buses and giving them Fingal scarfs and saying that the bingo is at half time if the lights stay on
We have a good record against shels so im confident of a good result in Fingal's favour.
Has the powers at be at shelbourne finally coped on that they are a first division side and charge entry fee as such or do they still think they are a premier division club and charge premier entry fees?0 -
Sporting Fingal FC Team Bulletin
League of Ireland First Division
Friday, 17th July (8pm)
Shelbourne v Sporting Fingal
Tolka Park
Stephen Paisley is in contention to feature for Sporting Fingal against league leaders Shelbourne on Friday night after recovering from an ankle injury which kept him out for the last ten weeks.
The return of the experienced centre-back for the meeting of the top two in the Division is a major plus for Fingal manager Liam Buckley, particularly at a time when defensive colleague and club captain Shaun Maher is still a week away from full fitness. Striker Robbie Doyle is the only other absentee with a knee injury.
Fingal got back to winning ways last week by inflicting a 4-0 defeat on Monaghan United at Morton Stadium and Buckley believes the same level of application will be required from his charges to extract points off the pace-setters.
“The effort from the lads last week was superb,” he said. “It took a bit of patience before we got the goals but I was always confident of making that vital first breakthrough.
“Shels are deservedly leading the pack at this point and I’m expecting a similarly tight game to the one we had against them in April when our one goal was the difference between the sides.
“There should be a good crowd at Tolka Park for this Dublin derby and our players will relish that type of occasion. We’ve had a decent run of late, bar the Finn Harps defeat, and the team is settling down after being ravaged by injuries in the first half of the campaign. We just need to sustain that level of performance.”
Winger Conan Byrne grabbed a hat-trick in the victory against Monaghan and is looking forward with excitement to the Shels fixture.
He said: “We’ve got back into the promotion race last weekend following the set-back at Finn Harps and the lads are really buzzing heading into this one.
“There is always very little between the sides in our matches against Shelbourne and one bit of quality could decide the outcome.”
Indeed, Shels have yet to overcome their North Dublin rivals in their five league meetings to date since Fingal entered the League of Ireland last season. 0 -

No need to my man, and why bother. According to the wizards on foot.ie we've an average of 992 people at matches this season, the highest in the 1st Division, combined with that we managed to get 3343 people to the Leeds match and 1113 to the match tonight, I'd doubt there's much complaint from our support.
3 thousand of them went to see Leeds 0 -
Taken from Dermot Keely's managers guide book
" When the other team's players get within a yard of you and you have the ball, fall down dramatically like you were taught by Billie Barry and pretend to be injured. If the play continues then get up and run after the ball. "
" Once you get the ball, kick it as far up the pitch as possible and do the above"
On a diffrent note, i see shels now have cut outs of fans
is that how you bump up the attendance figures? 0 -

Well if thats the Dermot Keely's manager guide book I think Liam Buckley should try follow it to be fair. Look what Keely has done on half your budget part time.0 -

Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems, all that worked last night yes?
For a team who are only up the road and brought at least 30 fans, you can't really talk:p
Sore losers is all you's are, we won fair and square for once against you's. We wanted this win more than you's, simple as. 1 Nil to the Football Club0 -

So you admit that your game plan was to dive and feign injury then?
this how you got the free that led to the goal, you cant beat us without cheating, shocking stuff.:D
We had more than 30 fans but they were actually fans and not cut outs
After the match in Santry, what was the reaction of shels fans like on here ?:D
We lost cos we played like muck end of and and shels didnt have to do much to win. Best team won in the end even if they tried to cheat the ref all through the game cos they couldnt win otherwise
You beat us once in the league thats all lads so calm yourselfs down a bit 0 -

I don't approve of it but it's being blown totally out of proportion on here, most oif the time they were genuine knocks. Tell me Fingal wouldn't do the same in such a huge game with plenty of tackles flying everywhere!
See I like the way you say you don't have cut out fans, when really the fans you have might aswell be(the majority, not all;)). Giving out free tickets and that lark would suggest the club needs fans to make Fingal look like there supported by the average folk, for show more then anything. Cardboard Cut-Outs;)
You say we can't beat you without cheating when you clearly also say the better team won, the refs aren't exactly for us either. A few decisions went against us too that shouldn't have. Also you's missed an oppurtunity to go in front at the start and you's fluffed it. We eventually controlled the game from out own goal line to the half way line, literally shutting you's out.
Take it as a knock and don't be going all whingy about ref's and all. I took the defeats as they were and I'm enjoying this one victory we have over you's, even if it is the only one.:D0 -
