Blackburn.
It should have no effect at all. We bate Utd a few days ago and have shels tonight.

Hope not. Extra days rest would do us good. Might go to this any decent hotels in Cork?

btw, many congrats to Pats. Best footballing team I saw at the Brandywell this season.

Monday afaik. Total pain in the arse.

As one players said after our win in Tolka.

Present City side have a psychological edge over this Shels team.

2-0

Daryl, Davin

Have a feeling that our mini revival may grind to a halt tonight against Bohs. Missing Burns and McLaughlin in defence with Osbourne also on the injured list.

In other news the Dundalk FC Community Trust had their relaunch last night and it was very heartening to see a great crowd turn up for it. Sean O'Connell from FORAS Cork was at it and he gave a great speech outlining the positives of a supporter run club. Spoke very well for a langer in fairness to him. Inspirational stuff.

Optimism and hope abound in Oriel at the moment. Long may it last.

Good buddy of mine. He is the brains behind FORAS, and does it completely without ego. Some are in it for themselves, not Sean.

Yeah, he spoke very passionately about the club and it was obvious he has a great love for the club. He went down really well with our crowd. Fair play to him for making the trip.

Last thing Rovers need is a match of any sort, a home game, an away game, a visit to the Brandywell.

dreamers75

North out for the season, thats sligo bollixed.

Wouldnt surprise me if Rovers went on a decent run.

GLaDOS

Big chance for Quigley to prove himself. He has the talent, just needs to apply it consistently.

As I said in a different thread, I can see Rovers still challenging this season, but not with Kenny in charge.

Oat23

We're done unless we manage to sign another striker and he turns out to be great. Not confident Quigley will do it.

Gutted for North. Hopefully he'll be back just as strong next season.

That_Guy

Looking forward to getting back to Dalymount this evening. Missed the UCD game as I was sick and last week was a "bye week".

Dundalk been stringing some decent results together over the last couple of weeks so I'm expecting a pretty tight game tonight. They actually look a proper team since McCaffrey stepped aside.

Scrappy 1-0 win would be great. At least Scully won't be playing. Useless fúcker.

EDIT: Just noticed they're showing the 4-0 win over Rovers in the Pheonix Bar after the game.

Big blow for our title hopes I have to say

needs it's own thread?

NufcNavan

If Michael Carrick gets its own thread than I don't see why this shouldn't..

Anyway, big blow for Sligo. They really need Ventre or someone to step up to the plate.

Mr.Crinklewood

Massive blow indeed.

Quigley needs to prove himself now.

Ventre plays in midfield and is the least attacking of them. You must mean Quigley or Cretaro

Ventre has been fantastic this season though. A different player compared to previous years.

Them too. Quigley is having his problems and Cretaro has been on the slide for the past season or two.

He has needed to do that the last couple of seasons. Bags of talent but doesn't always produce and can be so annoying to watch.

This is a big loss for Sligo.

Poodle-shaped is one of the kinder words I've heard for it:D

Oat23

We're looking to sign someone if the right guy is available apparently.

Heskey is still looking. Failing to land someone of his caliber, I would be fine with somone like Louis Saha or even Ivan Klasnic.

Mr.Crinklewood

Wonder when the Michael Carrick thread will get merged.

Funny I can't remember a major piece of EPL news that was made into a thread being merged into that weeks EPL match thread

It had been mentioned already in this thread. Natural place for it would be a Sligo Rovers superthread, but there isn't one....

The injury has also got little relevance to this weekends fixtures as Slgo are not playing this weekend.

Why the hell is the North thread merged? It is MASSIVE news that he is out for the season and it deserves it's own thread. I hope all EPL threads like that are merged too.

It's massive news for the league. It should have it's own thread. What a joke.

Better place would be in the League of Ireland forum, but there isn't one.

Seems to be one totally dedicated to Tottenham though.

( not having a personnal go btw, just staring facts )

There's quite a good atmosphere in the stadium - mainly from the excitable family enclosure left to me

Who is sitting there? The Shels supporters, or Cork Suppoerters, being pested by their kids moaning for a soft drink?

Mr.Crinklewood

Latest:
Bohemians 2-0 Dundalk
Cork City 0-0 Shelbourne
Derry City 0-0 Shamrock Rovers
Drogheda United 1-0 UCD

Good buddy of mine also. He really is seriously passionate about the club. I reckon if and when he ties the knot, he'll have the photo shoot form the X.

Loads of chances tonight, should have taken a few, 2 points dropped.

NufcNavan

Drogs were poor tonight. UCD deserved a point but I'm not complaining.

Oat23

Keigan Parker has played less than 20 minutes of football for Cork, he picked up a yellow last week and was sent off tonight :pac:.

Pity it ended in a stalemate. I was looking forward to a good argument in here.
