I can't see beyond Cork. Pats better finish in the top 3 or I'm down €50.

We've got the easiest run in, I think. Cork away is the only really tricky one.

Do you think you will beat us comfortably next week?

Cork should finish 2nd. Backed them at 15/8 to do so during the week (Cheers JC for the tip about the price)

Obviously I'd love 2nd but third and Cork winning the cup would do too...

I never think we're going to win up there, but it's not impossible

No Drogs??? :D:D

Personally I think goal difference will separate Cork and Pats. Both have tough run ins but are enough points ahead of the other two.
Drogs will go hell for leather next Friday to win the league. When its wrapped up I'm sure Doolin will play some of the U-21s whcih is good news for Pats

cork for me there the form team at the moment

Last 4 Bohs (league) games - 3 wins. Thats good form too.
Personally I think if we get a result at the Brandywell we'll knick second. Last game of the season at Turners cross will be the decider. If we are ahead going into that game, I'll be confident of getting a draw down there to clinch second.
Its definitely us or Cork at any rate.
Pats have to play both Cork and Rovers, so that IMO puts them out of the top three. Rovers form is poor, I reckon they'll draw with pats though.
Cork will lose to Drogheda, draw with pats and Sligo.

Freudian slip ;) plus I knew you would complain if I called them Rovers.

Confident we can beat Pats & Bohs at home no matter the other results. Playing some great football even if the defence is a sieve. Farrelly (controlling games) & Behan (new club record scoring in last 7 games) combination in best form of the season.

Bohs could threaten next season if they find a goal scorer.
