Yeah, I made that point in my previous post. I still think it's the "risk" that should have been taken. They let games be played six days before European games most of the time; no reason to make an exception here.

A player can just as easily get injured in training so its a no-brainer

Bearing in mind we haven't been on top of the League for approximately 2 and a half months and Shels have been there most of the season, I think you're talking crap.
Good luck with the Belfast spoofer spending your pile of money (replacing your previous spoofer who also spent a pile of money).
Give me battles for the title and European runs rather than mid-table mediocrity and a clubhouse with 3 bars.....
Bitterness and jealousy is a terrible thing.
Onwards to the Cup Final.
Touched a nerve there, have I?

Touched a nerve there, have I?See the other thread where it takes a Shels fan to point out the blinding obvious re Kenny and Bohs.
You haven't touched a nerve as I personally wrote off winning the League after the League Cup extra time and qualifying for the UEFA CUP 1st round left us with too many games in too short a time period.
We hadn't even played Drogs until a few weeks back and still had Shels to play twice at the end of August.
Last season was our real chance, but I'm not sure losing away to Cork in front of 9,000 home fans qualifies as "bottling it".
Kenny leaves, if he goes, without a trophy of merit, but he single handedly turned our club around.
FACT. As you like to say.

More like 6,500 fans in Cork.
The titles been there for the taking this season and last and Kenny has bottled it, simple as.
Nothing to do with us sacking him.

Shelbourne have been the team to beat for almost the whole season. They have been top longer than any other side. Shels have won the league because they are better than Derry.
They have been top longer than any other side.
Because of derrys fixture pile up.
Derry had it all in there own hands a few weeks ago and the games they have lost or drawns were against teams they are better than.
Fair play shels won the games and the league but Derry lost it when it was in there own hands.....so i do think there was an element of bottling it in there

In a strange sort of way I think Kenny blew the league at the
league cup final

Were you at the match last night?!
We were played off the pitch. The fringe players were played and they played, well, like fringe players!!!! The regulars looked so mentally tired it was unreal.
We signed our death warrant when we left ourselves with a game every 3 or 4 days for the last 10 weeks of the season.
Its not crying over spilled milk, its a fact.
Yes, I was at the match. If you had read my post correctly, you would have noticed that I suggested that the squad players should have been played in the matches vs Bray etc, therefore there would have been no excuse for fatigue in matches like last night. Martyn has looked wrecked for the past number of weeks, Deery or Higgins could have played in his position. It's not as if they are tired. The squad players that started last night were Holmes and Deery. I don't know if you can count Brennan as one. Holmes had a quiet night, but the damage was done in Deery's side. He was played out of position therefore looked like a 'fringe' player. Higgins actually did well when he came on, at least him, Molloy and McCourt took some responsibility for getting on the ball and at least tried to do something with it.
As for Delaney, well he looked like the classy centre forward Ireland have been looking for:D

Superb hat-trick by Barrett for anyone who didn't see in on TV3 the other night.
Could have been 6 :eek:
