    We were nowhere near the standard we actually are tonight too which didn't help but everyone has off nights might have got away with it somewhat against a team not as good on the ball as Pats. Conan Byrnes was excellent for them as was Hoare and McGrath. Not too disappointed tbh a bit that we didn't give a proper account of ourselves but get the real business finished next week and have ourselves confirmed as promoted.

    For the record, it's Ringmahon Rangers. They would be considered a small club from the southside of Cork city, but are clearly doing things right at the moment as they were runners up to local rivals Ballincolig in the final of the FAI Youths Cup this year. They were considered favourites going into it afaik.

    It's a reality check ahead of next season. The league cup final will possibly show if any lessons have been learned from yesterday's loss.

    You guys reminded me so much of ourselves when we had the Galacticos midfield a couple of years ago. You moved the ball so well and at speed, and playing out from the back too ( which we eventually cut out by pushing up). But like us when we were playing like that, you were lacking any real chances despite running us ragged in the first 20/30 mins, and it was all for nothing. You'll be comfortable in the premier next year IMO.

    I'm not sure about it being a reality check, surely for it to be a reality check it would have to be something that comes as a surprise to us. There isn't anyone around the club that wasn't well aware of the fact we aren't to a standard where we can play nowhere near our ability against a good premier team without being punished. Even at our best it would have been very hard to beat Pats when they are on it the way they were lastnight but its not like we will be going up with the exact same squad as this year anyway, who knows the way things go in LOI it could even be a far worse squad than we have now.

    Definitely. I reckon we'll need it as I don't quite see us finishing third.

    Draw was on 21st last year, if that's anything to go by.

    Which Rovers?

    Based on recent form, Sligo Rovers are in with a shout for 4th place

    Cobh will draw UCD. It's inevitable that there'll be an all First Division tie.

    Dundalk will draw Cork and Wexford will draw Pats.


    After that, it's anyones guess I suppose.
