Cork City V UCD

[CollegeTillIDie]

The UCD Under 21's (plus special guests) take on Cork City in Turners Cross at 7 p.m. tonight. Owing to injuries and suspensions that is effectively what we will be fielding. Anyone want to predict a result?

Anything other than a Cork City win and put your house on Derry City to win the treble.

Ok, to put this straight, according to today's paper on top of long term absentee McNally and suspended Shorthall, McDonnell and Hurley both Gannon and Mahon are injured. That's 5 defenders counting Tony Mac as someone who would have stood in with those other shortages. Possibly even Hurley would have dropped back. What would we be fielding had Kenna been injured?! I assume that chap named Long who played in the League Cup 1st round will partner Kenna. Micko at left back. Maybe McAniff at right back? Or perhaps Micko and Kenna in the centre and McAniff at left? I just have no idea who will go to right back. Possibly Kenna as he played there. I imagine our wingers and strikers will consist of Murphy, Martin, Pat McWalter and Dupuy. Arrange them in just about any order apart from Dupuy at right wing they've all filled those roles at some point this season!

I'm going to go for a draw. A youthful and rested College to bravely fight against a tired, nervy and demoralised Cork. Yes, I am an optimist.

Just heard Ciaran Harte, Shane Long (obviously) and Damien Kelly started. Also some lad called Jimmy Lee Maher was on the bench. Weak weak team.

I know we lost, but it's not even a game I could be arsed caring about. 1-0 isn't so bad in the circumstances & considering it's way better than 5-1.

nervy?...demoralised?...tonight was the most one sided game i have ever seen in the eircom league...you can call it a 1-0 HAMMERING...

Seamus Long ( a Corkonian) making his first team debut for UCD got sent off after 24 minutes. Cork City scored after 9 minutes so one can only conclude that Cork City couldn't score against 10 men for more than 1 hour

[CollegeTillIDie]

By the way we have about 4 players back on Friday who didn't play V Cork from suspension right ?

Relax there Corkie, I was taking the most optimistic outcome I could think of. Had you not dominated a 10 man semi reserve UCD team there would be something wrong with you.

Recycling your bait from the Longford forum?

That's a big travelling support! I was working on Sunday actually. I also had to factor in that the decontamination process from being outside civilization for so long would not enable me to get back to college today.

Thats understandable.. ....seeming that i am not all that bad credit to your lads last night for never giving up...and Pete Mahon is a decent honest guy...but still you know what i think of UCD..
