Any chance a mod can change this to a poll.
Team ..........P .W .D L F/A ..Pts.
Bohemians ....21 13 7 1 41/21 .46
Shelbourne... 21 12 3 6 38/22. 39
Cork City.... 21 10 5 6 33/27. 35
Shamrock Rove 20 8 5 7 30/23 ..29
St Patricks . 21 6 8 7 24/28 ..25
Longford Town 21 5 10 6 18/23. 25
Derry City... 21 6 6 9 24/29 ..23
Drogheda Utd .21 6 4 11 22/36. 22
UCD ..........21 4 7 10 18/25 .19
Bray Wanderer 21 4 7 10 27/40 .19
We are now 6 points ahead of Shams with a game more played and we have yet to play them at home.
We have yet to play Longford, Bohs and Pats away.
We have yet to play Bray, Shams and UCD at home.
If we get 9 points at home we will finish third. If we get a single point away, Ill be very surprised.
Unfortunatley, i think we will finish fourth with Shams pipping us on goal difference.

"Any chance a mod can change this to a poll."
That was what you asked right? Your wish is my command! No need to say thanks ;)
have to admit I hope we don´t qualitfy for europe. another waste of time in the inter-floppo cup, and murphy haging round the dugout for another season? No thanks. 4th or 5th i rreckon.
we will lose to bohs and longford. beat bray. draw to ucd. beat rovers and lose to pats. that gives us 7 points.
looks like 4/5- dire
Reckon third, if we beat Rovers. Otherwise fourth.

Just what i was going to say. We will probably need to beat rovers to keep third place. If they get a draw or win we could be in trouble.
I think we'll have an unexpected lose at home before the end (we seem to be getting closer & close to losing at home) & will possibly get a flukey away win as well somewhere...
Saying the inter floppo cupo is Europe is like saying pre-season friendlies are europe. :rolleyes:

where were you in Latvia??:D
if it sounds smells and tastes like europe.. and you have to travel 3 days to get there..then chances are it is Europe :)
Deffo 3rd, I'd say.
Would it be disloyal of me to say that I would prefer to finish 4th and not get into the inter-toto?
The only good thing I'd see happening if we get 3rd is
we get a very kind draw, i.e., someone from Scotland, Wales, beat them and then get some premiersh*t club which has loads of "fans" in Cork and we'd get a decent payday out of it.
Still, I'd prefer 4th at this stage.:(
Of course we could go on a run win our next 18 points and Bohs and $hels not win a game for the rest of the season and then we'd be champs ! Simple really !!:p

What have you got against the inter toto?
Indeed, hasn't the standard been raised slightly by the likes of Newcastle and Fulham being involved?
Maybe we'll get an away trip to Elland Road the way Leeds are going.

The problem, as I see it, with the inter-toto is if you get drawn against, say, a Latvian, Albanian, Estonian, etc.etc. team. It's a long and expensive trip away and not much of a crowd puller at home, so it's easy for the club to make a loss which is the last thing any el club needs.
Now, as I already said, if we drew a Welsh or Scottish team in the first round, beat them and got someone like Spurs, for instance, in the next round, they would draw a big crowd to the cross and then it would be worthwhile probably.

Another good thing about the inter two bob cup is that it will be in the middle of our season while it will be really early for most other countries. I think Irish teams will do much better in Europe next year because of this.
i'd say we'll cling onto 3rd....just.
playing UCD at home the last game of the season with them fighting for life isnt going to be easy
Ok, after last night, I hope we finish outside the top 3.
No Europe surely means no Murphy.
Why is Daly still playing????

hopefully:)
i noticed that theres no seeding in that competition, so with the right draw you could go far.
Andorra here we come :D
we are 4 points behind shels aint we
bohs beat them we keep winning
second place aint gone yet :D
MUrpHy is a LeDgEnD ;)
rovers have a better goal difference than us. So, imagine next week the impossible happens and we lose away and rovers win they leapfrog us.
ild say it will hinge on the rovers v city match.
****, and im away for that.:mad:
