    Question Can Cork do it?

    I know we all(well, most) want them to, but seriously, can Cork City get into the group stages of the Uefa cup?

    Should of re-phrased it I suppose . Question should be: Will Cork do it!

    Can they do it? Yes

    Will they do it? Don't think so, but I hope they do

    City

    Id nearly hope you lose because if you win I think it
    might cost you the league.Its going to be so close at the end
    that all the extra games might swing it Derry's way!
    Even though i have nothing against Derry I think Cork and especially
    Damien need the league more!

    That's what I was thinking too. So, which is more important for them? Winning the title or group stages of UEFA? I know which one I would pick

    which one is that sligoman? has to be europe all the way...

    but how many times have i heard people say dont listen to the media or we can do it, we will win, not thinking about stats or anything like that, just rolling off their tongue their hearts hope, only to get egg on their faces as usual.

    This is a team that CCFC can defintely beat. Cork have a lot of things in their favour,

    The mentality of the team is right and so is the planning and preperation. Cork play good football and there is no substitute for playing football. They are top of the league. The away game is first. Slavia Praha are mid table at the moment and have got off to a mediocre start.

    There isnt really anything that stands out as a major concern for CCFC (unlike Shels) and if they go and play like they can then they can defintely get through.

    It has to be the league. I mean, unless you get really far in Europe then there's no point cos you still win nothing. Do well at home and you win the league and end the season with a trophy . Europe is a bonus, a lucrative one, but a bonus nonetheless!

    For gods sake, born to play in Europe??? You do realise that they haven't a pigs ears chance of winning it don't you??? If Cork win the UEFA Cup I'll wear a Cork City jersey and one of Peadar's pink shirts!!!

    Just take it one game at a time there, its far too easy to get carried away at this stage, remember we were in the same position last year!!! Just don't get too cocky!!!

    To aswer the question, I don't know if they can do it, but I do hope so!
    Sitting pretty!!!

    Play like they did last night only with a bit more cutting edge up front and they can and will do it.

    I know it's something you wouldn't want to say, but if Doyle was playing last night, Cork would have won by two clear goals. I hope O'Flynn is back to his best by the time this comes around.

    I think he might have been on about winning the first round ... not the actual cup. Even we know that that is not a given ..... [SIZE=1]note that i'm not ruling it out either.[/SIZE]
