Down with that sort of thing.
It will mean a serious **** up not to win the league now but lets not get a head of ourselves. Win 7 of our next 5 and we are champions. Each game one at a time.
Win or next two games that should do it harps and waterford two tough games win them both and the champagne will be on ice also longford will have to make sure they win there games aswell.
Well after I predicted a win and several goals 'surely' vs SD Galway recently I am keeping quiet a while yet but it has been a favourable weekend results wise. More than could reasonably have been expected across all fixtures, even.
An aside but related, if we were to go up, how many of the squad on this seasons performances could impact in the level above? Would there need to be a major overhaul again? I think we would be looking at the strikers myself, and width also but I don't see the team play as often as most on here.
Imo we need a goalkeeper two centre halfs with pace a right full a top winger and a top striker to compete week in week out against top top teams just my opinion.
Ye'll be grand lads, league won, congrats! based on how you win every single game against teams outside of Waterford and Longford its nigh on impossible for Skully to screw it up.
Not a hope of ourselves or Waterford making up the gap, just enjoy it!

Have you watched us play!?
Tony's done a very solid job building up the team over the least few years, but, as the seasons progressed I'm beginning to trust his tactical knowledge less and less, I can see why he was never quite all that liked in Galway.
Ser its grand means I get to watch some PD footie in person more often no matter who goes up

Steady on lads, you've still to play Harps next week

Ya sorry that's what I meant.
Most definitely need to make a few changes if promoted. We have a good basis of a squad though and should hang onto most the experience. We have a few under 19's that I think could play very well in the premier. Especially if teams come out to attack us. Speed is the main thing we lack defensively. add maybe 5 or 6 new faces and we should be grand.
We did well last week because both teams played long ball tactics it was an entertaining 2nd half but thats because we were hanging on in all reality we havent played well in a long time now......I still have a funny feeling Waterford could upset you for the title yet, tell me this whats the goal diff between yourselves and Waterford?

Waterford's goal difference is just 2 goals better than yers.
I hope this thread doesn't come back to haunt us. Too many false dawns to start counting our chickens too early. Lose to Finn Harps next week while Longford and Waterford win, charges the dynamic again. What this weekend gave us is a little more breathing space.
So ye have a better GD than Waterford that could be crucial. Harps are a good team full of confidence right now so worst of luck next week
McHugh will be suspended that will probably save ye.

McHugh suspended, que Jordy Duffy from the under-19s. The next Kevin McHugh at only 17 years old. Be a nice way to burst onto the scene with a goal against Limerick ;P
Do ye reckon there will be many Limerick fans up next week?
