Joe is Killian Lordan any good?

Im friendly with him and I was talking to him the other night.

I asked was there any chance of him getting into the 1st team

and he said not a hope while Murphy is in charge.

What do you think? Is he up to it?

well he's the only one of the team to have actually played for the first team, competitively, so he probably has the best chance. Played most of last year at centre-half and won player of the year, but has played mainly in centre of midfield this time around. I think he was pushed down the pecking order with all the signings made in the last year, but i would say he has a chance, or at least deserves a shot at a place in the first team.

Akchewerly, Kerry Under 21s are already through to the semis where they meet Bohs in Dublin. Think they're staying in the Citywest, which is the right approach to the game. So if Kerry win through, and City follow us into the final (which will be on in Tralee) then I'll be cheering against City :eek: :eek:
To paraphrase something someone once said:
Ah, ye Kerry men are the most fickle type of f*ckin animal !!!!!:D

well that's one less concern for you now Conor as Bohs won that match :p

as for city, well they had a terrific and fully deserving 1-0 win in Sligo, thanks to a Cillian Lordan goal, and will now take on St Pat's in Cork* in the semis.

*date, time and venue tba

the earliest it will be played is next sunday and that's only if the ucd game is switched to friday. otherwise it will probably be the middle of next week

Is there a possibility of the UCD game being on Friday? I thought they were ALL def. on Sunday?

just one question- the match report says city took the only chance they had, but then mentions a number of saves made by the sligo keeper :confused:

[joe]

i prefer the report in the echo myself ;)

Joe will that game be on in the cross.

[Counting Crow]

Another semi-final ..... and against Pat's in Cork ( see tonight's Echo ).

Anyone know when this is on and where?

It could be a good evening's entertainment. Hopefully there will be a good turn outt to see the future of our club.

We should all make the effort ..... they deserve the support when you consider the path they had to overcome after a poor start.

Come on CITY.........!

[joe]

should know later this evening about the ucd match and hopefully about the under21s soon after

[razor]

Not that it necessarily correct but...

Off Aertel

FRIDAY JANUARY 24
EIRCOM LEAGUE PREMIER DIVISION
Cork City -v- UCD 7.45
Turner's Cross

[Counting Crow]

Yet again RTE show their class as a broadcasting unit............?

All final round matches MUST be played at the same time therefore our lasst game vs. UCD will be played on Sunday next ( not sure what time - but I'm sure RTE will let us know in time.... wait ... it's just coming through.... 2.45 in the morning.... so there you are ...... that's the official line )

Gotta stop drinking on Monday's I'm starting to halucinate ( is that spelt right? ).

[joe]

City V UCD will take place on Sunday at 3.15pm - as definite as things can be in this league

nothing definite about the under21s yet - possibly wednesday week

AFAIK they are allowing the shels game go ahead on friday as the result of that doesn´t affect anyone- but I can´t see how they´d let us play before rovers
