After seeing the squad the other night I think we look very strong. If we can add the two CSKA lads and Derek O Brien it will be very hard to look past us for promotion. We had the luxury of bringing on Gamble, Tracey, Behan and O'Leary, which just shows how strong we are. I still maintain left full could be a problem but maybe its a good chance to give Bhandarkar a serious run there. If he was injured though we would have no cover at all.
Hes been terrible so far in pre season and i wouldnt be holding out too much hope for a massive improvement from him....Way too nervous control is awful at times rarely looks for a pass just hoofs down field and has no real strength.Quote:

Also, what teams have folded if any since last season? and how many teams will be in this season's Prem division?
Top team are promoted automatically to the Premier.Quote:

12 teams in this years Premier.
On Bhandarkar I hear what people are saying but I think he could be fine, he'll be playing week in week out against a load of mediocre (at best) non entities.
We should win the league by 5 to 10 points (with or without the Communists)
I'm looking at our third last game in Terryland as the potential deliverance moment.
second play third in a playoff - winner plays second bottom Premier Club as things stand but we know the FAI love changing things with no warning
and Galway United are gone since last year
A deliverance moment or a deliverance moment? Because the former doesn't appeal to me so much. I'm not saying I wouldn't come home for it, just that I think I'd enjoy it a lot less...well maybe not a LOT less but you know what I mean...Quote:

On the Bhandarker debate I'm happy to see him given a solid run of games there, it could be the making of him as a player and if all comes to all both Tracey's can slot in there for us. We should have enough in the tank to see off most teams in the division anyway.
I'll nominate Behan for top scorer, Quinn for assistmaster, Gamble for most cards, Sean Kelly as player of the year, Stephen McGann as young player of the year.
I'll keep my counsel on my bet for the poor unfortunate who'll be singled out for abuse by an element of our support as we toil grimly against some minnow or other at some point.
Sure it's happened every year for the last few now. I'd be delighted if it doesn't happen this year, hopefully it won't.
If it makes people think twice about abusing our players this season then I think that's constructive enough tbh. It's happened too often in the last year or two, in my opinion, to players who at time, have been guilty of nothing more than making mistakes (a long way from parasites like Jamie Nolan or CP O'Brien). You're the one who's made it into an issue now, turning it from a single comment at the end of my post into an exchange that's now lasted four posts (and I presume you'll have a response to this one too). I have a problem with bile being poured upon players that are doing their best, if you disagree with that much then we'll have to agree to disagree I'm afraid.
Who am I blaming? Who have I blamed, named and shamed?Quote:

I believe it's less likely to happen this season simply because we'll win more games than usual but I woudn't be surprised in the least if it does rear it's ugly head again. If it doesn't I will apologise to you at the end of the season. Sorted? :)Quote:

Given a fair bit of abuse myself over the years but never to a player that may have been poor but tried hard. The main culprit for abuse would have been Sean O Connor for obvious reasons, worst attitude I've ever seen with the club, Jamie Nolan had an attitude but O'Connor was on a different level.
Back to the season preview, only one week to go now. Surprised Waterford haven't strengthened more. Longford on paper look like a bigger threat if you ask me.
If they are our biggest threat behind Longford then I am looking forward to a very successful season. http://extratime.ie/fixtures/detail/18084/2/Quote:
