I'd go with the same eleven as started in Waterford.
When Doyle is fit there might be a case for dropping Fenn, but at the moment George is getting better and better in midfield and that team has been on a really good run, I wouldn't move George as that would be changing how we set out at the start.
We don't really need the bite Sweeney would bring in midfield, Pat's aren't going to try and kick us off the field.

I think its something we have been seriously lacking in recent times, there should always be room for a hardman in the midfield.
I think Billy has been poor lately, unable to get a cross in anymore, I remember when he was the best winger in this country, happy days.

I'd try:
[GK] Devine
[RB] Greg
[CH] Murray
[CH] Bennett
[LB] Murphy
[RM] Billy
[CM] Colin T
[CM] Nwanko
[LM] Kearney
[CF] George
[FF] Flynny
We'd essentially be playing a 4-5-1 which would disrupt the St Pats midfield and hopefully generate enough set pieces for us to profit from. Pats aren't going to want their bad run to continue and if we can contain them early on they'll start to get more frustrated and remember their recent poor results. We are away from home remember and avoiding defeat is paramount.

We're away from home to a team who're like a wounded animal right now.
Caution is the best approach early on.
The beauty of football is that you can make up to 3 substitutions during the course of the game, to change things around, should you so wish.

We're away from home to a team....
it's a home game.
In any case, I don't think Flynny is strong or fit enough yet to play on his own up front.

Shít!
*Cork = Home
*Dublin = Away
I need to get out of this place!
We're away to Shels, right?
Tolka = Away?
Still would go with that team though ;)

My guess at our team
Adamson
Quigley Foley Maguire El Khebir
Dunne Osam Ndo Byrne
Bird O’Keefe
Although we might go 5 in the middle. Fahey being out is a huge loss as he’s been terrific recently.
Johnny Mac’s had a week in charge so we’ll see if he does anything differently

Remind us to avoid this Peader fella so then, whoever he is :p
Although we might go 5 in the middle.
Put a bet on it being 1-0 to City so then or 0-0.
It aint going to be pretty to watch, folks, with the centre of the park crowded out.

Greg Dan Benno Murphy
Billy Colin Georgie Nwanko
Flynny Fenn
I would drop Fenn but I don't think it's possible really until Doyler is back. The only realistic replacement for him at the moment is Behan or Sweeney (if you move Georgie up front). I'd say start with Fenn and Flynny up front and if either of them is having a nightmare bring on Behan.

My team would be -
Devine
Greg Dan Benno Murphy
Colin T Sweeney Georgie Nwanko
Fenn Flynn
Move Colin T to the right and drop Billy and give Fenn one more shout. Colin T while giving max effort goes in and out of games. Moving Sweeney's presence in gives Georgie a chance to do what he's good at and thats being creative. I think Billy was poor enough against Waterford all their attacks during the second half came down his wing.
Fenn to score tomorrow night. I reckon Dolan will have given him some sort of ultimatum to get cracking or face the bench. Behan is not good enough anyway unfortunately and we've no more options until Doyler and Stephen return.
I haven't been impressed by Fenn performances lately but in my opinion the best game he had for City was the away game against Pats when he anf Flynny played some great link up football. I'd like to see him start this one up front with Flynny and see how it goes
Devine
Greg Dan Benno Murphy
Billy Colin T Georgie Nwanko
Fenn Flynn
This is a game for Fenn to show his worth. It's unlikely that SPA have turned into a kick-sh*t team in a week, so his creativity can show through. If he can't do it in this game, can't see him ever doing it. Flynnie should show a bit more form as well.
I fear this could be 11 man defence gameplan from SPA, so its going to be up to Georgie, Fenn and Flynnie to come up with the goods.
btw, has Derek come back?

Fenn Flynn
Is Lordan still injured?
Have Kearney, Behan and Nolan ready to fall in if Fenn, Flynn or Nwankwo aint doing the biz.
I hope the apes around the ground don't get on Fenn's back.

ah well neil, u know the critics here will support whatever 11 are on the pitch
Devine
Lordan, Bennet, Murray, Murphy
Billy, Colin, George, Kearney
O'Flynn, Fenn
Hoggie may come in for Lordan if fit.
Maybe Gamble for Colin
Billy for Doyler who been looking tired since Nantes.

Mucka Benno Dan Danny
Woods Colin George Kearney

Our form is (LAST 5 LEAGUE and Cup GAMES) P 5 W3 D 0 L2
Yours is (Last 5 League and Cup Games) P5 W2 D0 L3
Pats owe yous one for the robbery of a game in Turners Cross, can see a few goals in this for us if our young lads run your tired defence ragged.

You're right - Jebus- I didnt know I could predict the future like that...
He and Fenn had them running around in circles up there earlier in the season.
That's true actually. Flynny's goal up there was the result of a beautiful bit of link up play between himself, Fenny and Georgie. I'd be quite happy with a repeat performance! :)
.
Fenn to score tomorrow night.
Who we playing tonight????
I don't understand why people are suggesting that Nwanko starts on the left. Why drop Kearney when he is in the form of his life???
The players who are looking most tired at the moment are Flynny, Doyler, Colin T and Lordan has been looking a bit tired too.
I'd like to see Hoggie given a run a right full, think he's fit enough by now
