How many points will it take?
If we win our 2 games in hand, beat Shels and Shels don't drop any points in their other games, we'll be a point behind.
I think their experience will count for a lot in the run in though.
We don't have that title winning habit. :(
We'll have to win all our remaining games to do it I'd say. Which would involve a run of winning 12 in a row. Not sure if that has ever been done in any league

Dillusional or Dreaming, who cares!. How many games are we now after winning in a row?
I know what my doctor would say - it will take weeks or indeed months of therapy to find out. Therapy a costly business indeed.
Lads put me out of my misery!

Will we win the title, do we deserve it? In a word no. Hed City kicked off this little run earlier I would be more optomistic, but in fairness 2nd is a good show after the spot of inner turmoil earlier.

If we finish on top of the table, that's where you deserve to be. :confused:

That's pretty much the long and the short of it in League competition.
The cup is a bit of a hit and miss competition by comparission.
I fear, however, that our recent run is a case of too little, too late.

3 to us hopefully but we'll have to win our games in hand to give ourselves a fighting chance.

You never know, doesn't seem like the tall order it was a few weeks ago.
Stranger things have happened as they say :eek:
Well before we even think about playing Shels, we have to be looking at Longford (A), SPA (H) and Derry (A).
These are all games City should hope to win, should there be genuine title aspirations. That said, none of them will be easy, and the record in the Brandywell isnt that great.
If City can get 7 points from those 3 games, it will be a great haul, and will have the players in a very confident mindset going into the Shels game.

Yeah i'd take 7 point now to be honest. Shels will drop more points make no mistake, so winning all our games isnt the be all and end all
I think we can afford to draw 2 (maybe 3) games and if we win the rest we have a great chance. gonna be very tough, but it is possible
dont forget waterford play bohs tonite pains me to say it but i want waterford to win. alot depends on other teams too
i'd take second now if it was offered to me, i think people are underestimating the Bohs challenge
