The goal he gave away against Limerick in pre-season was horrendous. Although im not a huge fan of Pat Sully at right-full. With Havo suspended for the 1st game he might play Sullivan right full and Deans centre half but more likely hel go with young Mulhall.

I expect Hynes will start with Sully. Whether he should or not is a different matter.

Two clean sheets in a row. Sorcery!!
This new coach of ours must be some kind of witch doctor. Probably helps when you go out and sign better defenders mind you.

A witch!!?
just back from game. We should have beat Athlone by more. they were **** poor yet again.. Rice was majestic for us yet again. Sully had nice assist for Shawsys goal!
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Personally, I think our best 4 defenders are Haverty, O'Sullivan, Flynn and Tyrell. I think when everyone is fit and free from suspensions that is the back 4 most would agree on. Of late Haverty has been playing centre back with O'Sullivan right full, it will be interesting to see if TC continues with this
Back in the Premier Division .... How does the 2015 starting line up rate against the 2001/2002 and 2007 teams ?
After Flynn's careless sending off, it's looking like we'll be fielding the most inexperienced back 4 ever to line out for the Town in a Premier Division game this Saturday. Potentially looking like:
Beirne - Hughes - O'Reilly - Mulhall
With the inability of the older players to be be able to tackle properly (and then getting themselves booked/sent off), maybe it's for the best that the younger lads are getting more game time than what might have been expected.
Thank God I'm not going to harps on Saturday. We won't have a team left after it.
Rossiter and Powell looked like hamstring injuries, don't know how serious. Rhys still out, Flynner suspended. Don't know what injury Haverty has.
That leaves Mulhall, O'Reilly, Beirne, Noack Hofmann and Hughes (who I think is actually a centre mid). Also as Briuk said McGlynn could play back there.
Tonight could easily end up with 7 or 8 put past us or we could end up with a 0-0!
Don't see it being 7 or 8 but certainly 3 or 4 nil would be no surprise at all. The squad looked light on defenders from the start.

Might hold off a week or two before we can update this thread..
