[BrayZil]

AFAIK he'll be fit to play.

[Roo69]

Collie was up in my gaff last night, he'll be fit thank god, but your right Caffo is cup tied and Jody is from what i've heard gone for the season. Rochey's knee will be grand, some kind of insect bite he was saying. I'd go with.....

Great news about James. Apart from Jody and Caffery we've got a full squad to choose from which makes a change.

[Roo69]

Yeah about time we got a bit of good news on the injury front, all the lads played a full 45 minutes against the Wicklow select team on Monday night who are coming back from injury, McGovern apart. Murphy scored 2 and his second was a BEAUTY ! his looking fitter and fitter each time i see him play

Modelling, don't get into it, the pay is s-hite and the amount of attention you get. Ignorant people asking you for autographs while you're having a nice evening meal or even walking down the street..:p

[KR's Post]

A bit of pre-season under his belt and he'll be fine. Don't mean to be bad, but he kinda reminds me of Robbie Doyle when he came back to us! Carrying a bit of weight!

[SeagullScene]

people in glass houses Tarzy!!!!!:D

[KR's Post]

people in glass houses Tarzy!!!!!:D
I'm not throwing stones!!!!

[The Wanderer]

Paul Murphy is looking very well lately, as in regards to fitness wise! He played well the other night!
Now no slagging off ur fellow supporters.....

[KR's Post]

Now no slagging off ur fellow supporters.....
Who slagged who????

[KK77]

I'd like to see the following team;

C O'C

P O'R
C Tresson
B McG
Pip

Collie James
Foxy
K O'B
D T

Tarzan
Murphy

Anyone reckon Devo might just leave Roche out for this one and go for experience????

[Roo69]

possibility alright, but he was one of our best players Vs. Waterford so reckon he might get the nod

[KK77]

Yeah thought so myself then the Drogs game a few weeks back when he wasn't great got me thinking that Devo might opt for experience but i myself think he's a good strong player just wondering if Devo may opt for more experience especially with it being in their place.

[The Wanderer]

What bout Chopper or Robbie McGuniness, any word on them yet or will they even get near the bench!

[KR's Post]

Somehow i doubt it...

[The Wanderer]

Yeah i had that feeling alright...

[KR's Post]

Yeah i had that feeling alright...

It's just they've been injured for most of the season and other lads have taken their chance by the scruff of the neck. You might be surprised though. AFAIK you are allowed 7 subs on the bench for cup games...:)

[The Wanderer]

Yeah i believe u are right on that one....

[SeagullScene]

7 subs? who will they be?

[KR's Post]

7 subs? who will they be?
P Hannigan
R Dunne
P O' Reilly
P Murphy
A Georgescu
S Gifford
M Holt.....

Maybe????

[dublinwanderer]

Starting team should be:
GK - Skippy

DR - Giffy
DC - McGovern
DC - Roche

MR - James (if fit) or R Dunne

FC - Murphy

[seagulls nest]

Fox Tarzan

Surely Collie James has got to start... And i have my doubts about O' Reilly in such a high profile game, a good player but i think Giffy with the expierience would be a better choice.. Any injurys on the Drogs side?

[seagulls nest]

only problem i could find with that team is that mcgovern hasnt played in a while and neither has gifford?

[Roo69]

Collie has to be a defo starter for us ! Defo have Giffy in ahead of O'Reilly, both himself and McGovern are fully fit, Giffy looked raring to go in the friendly on Monday night. There no way we can drop any players for Longer for a match like this, he has been out for such a long time and has only got a few minutes here and there, far to risky IMO.

Is Gartland not suspended for being sent off Vs. Cork last week ?

[KR's Post]

Longer only coming back aswell, but played quite well in that position at the start of the season!!!! It's going to be a tough call. Something tells me i don't think Tarzan will start...

Paul Keegan is suspended for Drogs having been sent off in the last round against Bohs. Cup sendings off go to the next cup game if your still in it otherwise it's the next league game. I would imagine that Gartland's suspension will be the next league game.

[The Wanderer]

Paul Keegan is defo out not sure bout Gartland.. I would start Giffy before O'Reilly

[fan_1]

no way would i play giffy never passes the ball poor at attacking. defo o'reilly

McGuinness should start right if fit, if not then dunne.
Keith Long, played great at the start of the season, then injury
Fox
David T

Tarzan, (Should be Eamo)
Georgi, might do it for the big game

Sorry Grasshopper but that team would lose out and out!!! No way Robbie Mc and Longer are up to it and Franco hasn't been firing on all cylinders lately.....

[Roo69]

Agreed, we would be murdered with that team out, no were near our strongest XI

[KR's Post]

no were near our strongest XI

Very true.......

[Roo69]

Anyone else getting really nervous ?

[The Wanderer]

Yes its so close but yet so far away to the final!

[KR's Post]

Anyone else getting really nervous ?


Big time.... Can't wait! The tension is killing me. Everytime i look at the match ticket i just want to be there. If not for the match, but the atmosphere aswell.:eek:

[The Wanderer]

Yeah we have to make our own atmosphere, dont care bout anyone else, sing our hears out..

[KR's Post]

Hearts you mean!!! As i said before, don't you worry.... It's going to be great. I don't know what it is, but i prefer playing away from home for this game as we will all be together and singing together. Something that would not have happened if we were drawn at home, i'm sure of that!!

[The Wanderer]

Well thats very true, as when at home, everyone is scattered around the ground and the noise only comes from the shed!

[KK77]

Anyone else getting really nervous ?

Yes i am nervous but why are you sure you have said our name is on it all along and we are going to win it or are you now realising football is a funny game and anything can happen??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Roo69]

Yeah i still think we will win it, have to be optimistic about these things ! but it still does'nt stop we getting nervous when Bray play, jesus i get nervous for league matches as well........ (i know......sad)

[SeagullScene]

i get nervous for league games too, i look forward to the next game from the final whistle of the last game!!

[The Wanderer]

I am nervous but have a good feeling on this one, cant wait for the final whistle...
