    Before the season started I expected them to be the other team in the top 2. Pete Mahon is (I think) a good manager, although I don't see much to be worried about in their squad apart from Thornton.

    Home draw to Athone and a 3-0 loss at Shels don't suggest much to fear really. We should win.

    Although, and I mean this seriously, our form has been so excellent that it's hard to gauge how other teams are, as we are just crushing them all. They all look really poor. UCD were probably the team we hammered least so far.

    What I want to know is, if we go there, win narrow with a clean sheet, what will the usual suspects on here focus on then to be negative about ? We have had stadium announcer. Maybe the fact that if we drew Barca, our defense wouldn't hold up, or the brand of tomato sauce in the chip van will be wrong.

    Our defence wouldn't even hold up against a mediocre premier team.

    JP Dillon is a terrible, terrible, stadium announcer.

    Freddy Hall needs a kick up the arse in the form of a dropping. It's not like it would matter to us.

    The grass bank on the popular side is too muddy.

    There aren't enough bins in the ground.

    Turnstiles don't work properly.

    Too many of our players wear the same colour boots.

    Very poor again tonight.

    Drogheda should have had at least seven or eight goals.

    Three is a poor return playing against an amateur pub team aswell.

    Aaron Greenes New boots are not as nice as his old boots.

    Since we got the finger out and signed some decent players we're alright I suppose. Definitely give Nenagh a run for their money in 1A alright. Tough place to go and get a result tho.

    Let's hope we avoid them, serious squads with surely an eye on the trophy.
