[micls]

Stephen Mulcahy-city youth
Dave Rogers
O'Halloran
George
Shane Duggan
Faz,Flood
Davin O'Neill
Cummins
Sammy-Italian trialist

[DmanDmythDledge]

*Thanks.*

Graham Cummins?

[micls]

Yeah.

[DmanDmythDledge]

*Thanks.*

Has he signed or on trial? Surprised that he didn't stay with Waterford rather than try and potential shambles...

[Fermoy Blue]

*Thanks.*

He ain't too bright...Waterford not offering enough so he's goin' to City for the money:confused:

[WoodquayBoy]

I wasn't at it but I heard that Cork didn't even have water bottles for the players. Some mess they're in!

And yet without water bottles, wages or the majority of their players from last year, they still hammered ye 4-1. Ye have Tony Cousins in charge - who is it that is in a mess again?

[Longfordian]

Not as clear cut as that in fairness you didn't see the game and haven't ye lost all yer games so far including fairly heavy defeats to Mervue and the Oscar Traynor side? You should know better than to read much into preseason games. One thing I will concede is that our new sub goalkeeper has been diabolical thus far giving away at least two goals every time he comes on. 2-1 would have been a better reflection of the play.

Exactly. We used old jerseys in our last 2 friendlies, does that say we are in a mess? Just picking up on what I though was a stupid comment about Cork not having any water bottles

[Longfordian]

I see where you were coming from but it wasn't just the water bottles though they didn't have any staff apart from Roddy, no physio, no coaches, no kitman. They do still have some good footballers though if they do somehow manage to survive.

[micls]

Are you really comparing wearing a set of old jerseys in preseason(fairly normal) to not having a doctor physio or even water for the players?

Wasn't aware of the lack of physio, doctor etc. All I was saying was that, just because a team didn't have water bottles didn't, for me, mean they were a mess

[The Lilywhites]

Wrong thread!

[The Lep]

Got 4 goals in the last 10 minutes.

[thischarmingman]

Derry 1-1 Sporting Fingal tonight.

Have to say, both sides tried to play football throughout. Thoroughly enjoyed the game.

Jaysus, if the Galway Oscar Traynor side can beat ye 4-1, it's asking for trouble taking on Hull!

[Mr A]

Cheers MR A,what sort of team will u have out,will Kevin Mchugh play?

Not sure. I'd imagine he'll play some part and that we'll be more or less full strength but you never know with friendlies.

[KUFCMan]

Cheers MR A,just seen BET365 betting on the game and they have Harps at 7-2 which looks big for a pre season friendly!

[oriel]

Dundalk v Drogheda tomorrow night has again reverted to a 1 off match to be decided on Pens

Dundalk 2 (John Flood 2) Drogs 1 (Paul Crowley) est 1,500, Dlk win the Malone cup, first time since 2000.......ooh the excitement !

[Sam_Heggy]

Harps - Sligo finished 0-0.
Ok game, half paced to be fair with both sides hitting the woodwork but neither keeper having a real save to make.
We looked decent, better shape about the team than last season and better passing and movement.
Can't wait for the season to start now.

[dong]

Question lads would appreciate an answer.
Any friendlies on tonight in the Dublin area?

[shep]

Dundalk 1(JJ Melligan) Derry City 0 FT

[fionnsci]

Afraid not. In general, check here, it's very up to date. http://extratime.ie/fixtures/

[Dillonman]

Dundalk 1(JJ Melligan) Derry City 0 FT

Scrappy game, some tough tackles in there also. Decent crwod down from Derry. Few turned up at ht very very drunk and alot of them wearing summer gear, some decided to take their tops off and it was freezing all day herte so alot of sick people tomorrow.

[robbieos88]

0-0 full time between Pats and Waterford at the RSC

[Longfordian]

Not a friendly as such but I can't see anywhere better to put it, Fingal beat Longford 4-2 on penalties after a 1-1 draw. Hynes scored for Town and Zayed for Fingal. Leinster Senior Cup game

[De Town]

That's a pity. Encouraging result though.

[The Betting Man]

We played Shels last night and we won 2-0 Madden and McGuiness with the goals

Longford played well and look a better side than last year and should do well in the league going by that performance.

Madden seems to be doing well in preseason. What do you reckon your first eleven will be in the first game? Will Raf be getting his game?

[Battery Rover]

Drogheda 1 Athlone Town 1
