Old bald man he ain't what he used to be...!!! Better get buying!!!
Drogs have only won once in Belfield ever, so it's not a bad draw. We can certainly take them. If we can beat Cork, we can beat the Drogs. We'll be seriously up for it - can see Shero going to every training session from now till then to get the lads fired up - picture of Doolo hanging from the top corner of the net to improve free-kick accuracy!
Also, it's almost a year to the day since he buggered off too! Think the programme may have a little special comparing the records of the two!
Very good. Can we emphasise the goals for column a bit... :D The big question in my mind is whether or not Willie Doyle is fit. I thought he was due back against Kilkenny. Anyone heard anything?Quote:

Well lads. Having a good old foam at the mouth already I see ;)
Praying for this draw in every round to be honest! Though there are some who'd have preferred it to be the final - so we could go up to Doolo afterwards and "commiserate" with him on his loss! :DQuote:

If we can work that up, you never know...
Don't I know. Most Drogs fans seem to have "the fear" whenever Belfield is mentioned! It is obviously not a happy hunting ground for us and generally not a nice place to visit - although the student bars are something of a sweetener :)
But I'm sure our Doolo will have the troops up for it, he'll know the rabid dog syndrome that we're going to encounter. And as for Willie Doyle - how about Declan O'Brien, Andy Myler or even Tony Bird - no contest!
Agreed. :DQuote:

Preseason friendly :p
Yes, this will help rebuild Willie Doyle's fitness and confidence, won't it. :pQuote:
