as much as i dont like to admit it, we will be relegated, we have been terrible this year,no excuses. as for our attendences, shocking to say the least,but some 'fans' only go to the Cork,Pats,Bohs,Rovers games,so we would have no hope of getting a crowd for a Kildare,Wexford,Monaghan,(no offence meant) if we had gone to the first division,which IMO was the better and more realistic thing to do.

Over on the First Division Title thread, I thought it was two from four for the drop zone with us, Waterford, Bray and Longford in trouble, but after tonight, the students might make it two from five.

Then again........Drogheda were no great shakles against us a fortnight ago (& will probably thump us by 3 or 4 on Friday night after that post :() while Bray were unlucky not to get all three points in Cork.

In summary, I think Longford will survive as will Bray. On current form Waterford, UCD and ourselves have a big sweat..and we gave 6 awful handy points to the Blues:mad:

Waterford look like they'll finish bottom, they're definitely the poorest side I've seen this season. The play-off will be very tight though, we're dreadful at the moment, Bray are on a poor run and Galway will be close too but I think Longford's run will stutter and they'll end up in the play-off.

Actually one UCD fan (no inverted commas) stated it's damaging for Waterford and the league to have one team get relegated two years in row.See here (http://foot.ie/showpost.php?p=760782&postcount=15) for a set of fully deserved inverted commas.

Fair enough. I didn't make the claim, but I backed it up. My memory of the first page of the thread was playing tricks on me it seems. Perhaps it was pineapple asking was I serious...

Regardless of our recent form a win for Waterford on Friday and a loss for us versus sligo will mean the gap is four again. We are still not out of the woods yet. We have a job to do over the next couple of weeks and thats to try and catch waterford and bray. This will be very close and I think any one of the teams above us could get sucked in.

Think we're going to be safe now. Big three points last night. Nice boost in confidence as well before a trip to Cork minus Roy O'Donovan and two keepers.

I'd say Waterford will go straight down and Galway will wind up in a play off with Finn Harps, and from there it's anyones guess

:cool: the same out-come would do me.
And Id guarantee a few Dundalk fans would be Harps fans IF that were to happen :D

i reckon we will have enough in the tank .... just.... to be above the play-off spot. i think longford and bray are favourites for that position with waterford automatic to go down.

i think longford may overtake bray! imagine how crazy that would have sounded a month or so ago!
