LOI match fixtures Fri 28th Sept - Tues 2nd Oct

[PartySaint]

A 5-0 win for the Saints tonight with Vinny Faherty getting a hat trick. Delighted the result considering the starting players we were missing, Chambers, Bolger, Fagan, Soccy, Russell and our captain Conor Kenna. That win should be enough to ensure we qualify for Europe next season through a league position.

more importantly it guarantees Sligo don't get to lift the trophy in Turners Cross this week. Couldn't hack that at all

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

Certainly won't be as many travelling now after last nights results

It does mean they can win it against us in the Showgrounds on Saturday week now, unless Cork can do us a favour.

ideal scenario, we beat Sligo to screw up their chances, then we beat Pats on the last day to take the title from them and hand it back to Sligo.

I've been looking at the table the last few weeks trying to figure out who I wouldn't mind winning the league and I can't choose any of the clubs above us, so the best case scenario is to play spoiler. I guess I just don't like football teams not called Cork City

I guess I want St. Pats to win it the least, so theres that, and then Drogs would be a close second, so as much as a I dislike Sligo they don't register as high on my list as the others

So yo didn't like Cork For a Scoop?

I said don't, in the present tense... or some other handy excuse

All that matters is that City win as many matches as possible between now and the end of the season.
It would be great to beat Sligo though considering we threw away a 2 goal lead up there the last day but the fact that we haven't played in 2 weeks might hamper us.

Dundalk essentially consigned to finishing last tonight. Losing 2-0 to Derry. If it stays that way they are 9 pts adrift with 3 games left and a far inferior goal difference.

2nd last ;)

The players may have given up and essentially be resting for the playoff now but it can't be doing confidence much good to be trashed every week. On the other hand, either Longford or Waterford will be getting to the playoff on a high after beating the other side.

Fixed for you.

They must have thought they were playing Shamrock Rovers.

Considering the prize that awaits the final loser of that play-off - a plot in the "graveyard" - this is the biggest promotion/relegation match-up in years.

[bullit]

I said it once already but here goes for the 2nd attempt.How do you ease players into a relagation/promotion playoff battle on the back of two heavy defeats like that?(11-0 agg)
Saint Gerards novena starts in Dundalk next week,maybe the players can turn up at that cos thay havent turned up for feck all else all season :(
