[Iorfa2MaccaJim]

Dean Delaney
Colm James
Sean Byrne
Andy Boyle
Steven Paisley
David McGill
David Cassidy
Chris Mulhall
Brendan McGill
Conan Byrne
Karl Bermingham(hopefully Mulvenna though)

[oriel]

Same team as v Linfield, only possible exception will be one of Ward/Maher coming in for Bolger, but I think it will be unchanged.

Cherrie

Madden(c)
Guthrie
Hawkins
Osborne

Kearns
Bennett
Bolger
Gaynor

Hyland Salmon Walsh

[sligoman]

We have a few injuries so i'd say

Doherty

McCallion
Greacen
S. McEleney
Lafferty

McGlynn
Molloy
Higgins
McLaughlin

P. McEleney
McDaidZayed injured or just not likely to be starting?

[sheao]

Probable starting 11 on Friday imo :
McNulty

Turner-- Kavanagh--O'Halloran-- Danny Murphy
-----------Morrisey--- Duggan------------
Sullivan- Escude Candau - Davin O'Neill
------------ Cummins---------------

[Magicme]

Ours will be

Goalkeeper:


Defence:






Midfield:







Forwards:




Will be different the following week though.

[Guinney]

..................Cherrie
Madden...Hawkins...Guithre...Osborne
Kearns...Bennett...Bolger...Gaynor
...........Byrne...Quigley

Same as Oriels above and unchanged from Setanta match on Monday. Maher is behind in fitness as he came back late for pre-season and Ward unlucky but will probably miss out. Forwards pick themselves, as does Cherrie.

[Guinney]

..edit

[Lamper.sffc]

O oooo oooo oo

[SkStu]

fat keeper?

[horton]

MagicMe, your forum's a nightmare to try and read. What players do you's actually have?

[Magicme]

Yeah Horton, its a mess. We are hoping to move to a new format soon.

[El-Pietro]

Probable starting 11 on Friday imo :
McNulty

Turner-- Kavanagh--O'Halloran-- Danny Murphy
-----------Morrisey--- Duggan------------
Sullivan- Escude Candau - Davin O'Neill
------------ Cummins---------------

Why do you think Sullivan will be on the wing and why do you think Turner will start, hes barely played in pre season

He'll start 4-4-2, same as against Bohs

Nults

Hoggie
Kavanagh
Gregory
Danny

Davin
Morrisey
Candau
Duggan (one of these three will be on the wing)

Sullivan
Cummins

he might go back to 4-5-1 once O'Brien is available.

[Darkglasses]

P. Holden

M. Kehoe
K. Keogh
A. Russell
A. Wolfe

B. Ryan
S. Nolan
G. Yelverton
P. Malone/C. Wall

D. Furlong
D. Grincell/M. Mullen

[pineapple stu]

Same as the Setanta, assuming Seánie Harding recovers from his knock -

Ger

Harding
Nangle
Yael
Leahy

Corry
O'Conor
Creevy
Marshall
Meenan

Rusk

Only real question mark is whether O'Callaghan gets a game after doing well on Monday.

[Dodge]

We've 3 suspended so Friday will be something like

Rogers

Pender
Shorthall
E McMillan
Kenna

Mulcahey
McFaul
Murphy
Doyle

Daly
D McMillan

Get back on your line, keeper!!! McNulty would want to cover his goal better than where you have him or ye're screwed.

[Mr A]

Actually McNulty is fine. It's just the the rest of the team are all standing on the same side of the pitch.

[LFC-Zulu]

-------------------Barry Ryan------------------------

--------Treacy - Purcell - McCarthy - Frost-----------

------------ Judge -------- O'Leary ------------------

-------- Breen -------- Quinn -------- Sheahan ------

---------------------- O'Flynn -----------------------

That's my guess, but with such a big squad, its next to impossible to tell what Scully's gonna play tomorrow.

[Aaron]

Zayed injured or just not likely to be starting?

Hasnt played much in pre-season so doubt he will start

[Iorfa2MaccaJim]

This is off - topic I know, but does anyone know where I can find the referee appointments for this weekends
games ?

The suspensions weren't released to press either

[bullit]

Alan Kelly is down for Shams v Dundalk according to EXTRATIME.

[roversforever]

Marshall will be starting?Not much of a player in my opinion...all flicks and tricks but a bit of a headless chicken,head down and runs down blind alleys.Had one or two decent games for us but i don't see him as a premier division player.
Same as the Setanta, assuming Seánie Harding recovers from his knock -

Ger

Harding
Nangle
Yael
Leahy

Corry
O'Conor
Creevy
Marshall
Meenan

Rusk

Only real question mark is whether O'Callaghan gets a game after doing well on Monday.

[pineapple stu]

Marshall will be starting?
Yeah, we've not got much strength in depth. I think our bench in Lisburn on Monday night had less than ten games between them. Ger O'Callaghan is a winger, so if he come sin, it'll be for Meenan or Marshall.

Marshall in fairness scored a superb goal in pre-season against Mervue.

[stann]

Graham Kelly is our ref tonight Iorfa, I think.

[DaveyCakes]

Hangman!!! I'll start with "R"

[outspoken]

Rouse
Reilly
Deans
Hope
Lee

Salmon
Hyland
Walsh

Oladele/roach brother
Cowan
Morley

[Onefootednopace]

Sullivan
Cummins

he might go back to 4-5-1 once O'Brien is available.

That looks more like it. But if Duggan has not recovered from injury, then I presume Spillane will slot in alongside Kavanagh and O' Halloran moves into midfield.

[Sam_Heggy]

Harps will most likely line up:

Gallagher

Doherty, Mailey, McLaughlin, Coll

Bonnar, O'Grady, Forker

Harkin, McHugh, Brolly

I'd prefer Cowan in centre of defence instead of McLaughlin but otherwise we're as strong as we can be without our injured players.
