I couldn't agree with the 2 of you more.What this club has achived in such a short space of time and with the limited resources it has is nothing short of amazing but for some so called "fans" it just isn't enough.These couple of people seem to expect that a part time outfit can win every game it plays in.While we are on the topic of amazing facts here's one for those people.There are better teams than us in the league.Like it or not that is a fact.When we get a 20 goal a season striker & 2 more top midfielders then we can seroiusly think about pushing for the league but until then IMO 3rd is a more realistic aim with good cup runs thrown in.
god you must ave been the only person at town games years ago! everyone a bandwagon eh!! get real!Quote:

this is a slow process and the long term future of the club should be risked to win the league. a league where you get €15,000 for winning it, you get more for the league cup ffs !!!!
as macy said realism.
Well said Macy.As has been pointed out to Cop On or lack of it everyone at this club has ambition.Everyone at this club wants to win every game.But people at this club are also realistic about the Huge task it is.To win a league you need maintain excellent form all season.You must have a large squad of quality players to cover for injuries & suspensions.You must have a budget to back this up.Shels are a better team than us & other than yourself i don't think anyone will disagree with me.Shels are the best team in the league & have been for some time.Look at the League table the facts speak for themselves.Like it or not Bohemians & Cork are also better Teams than us but we have closed the gap to them and are moving in the right direction all the time.We are on a Par with Drogheda and we are better than the rest of the teams in the league.Now from what i can gather from your posts you seem to know some kind of winning formula that no other person in the world knows.Do you realise you are sitting on a fortune with the knowledge of football you have.My suggestion to you would be to go to the board and ask them to sack the best manager we ever had and let them in on your plan to win every competition the Team are entered in every season for ever & ever.
wow....I used to think we were real bitches on this thing, but ye're real bitches..
It's a real Bitch fest here Joe Soap because most people on this board jump down your throat as soon as you question or disagree with what they have posted.It's like a f uckin soap opera here mate you should stay tuned.
I'll explain to you kid... Once you're losing an arguement it all becomes about who's a better fan, how long they've been a fan etc. That attitude isn't going to encourage more people out to the Flansiro, which we need to progress, let alone reach your vision of the club. You never actually state when you started going either, so we're just to assume you were there way before everyone else....Quote:

YAWN!ok cop on if it makes you feel better, just stop throwing abuse at everyone else because, perhaps, they have been around a bit longer and maye know a bit more of how easy it is for an LOI club to over-reach and go off the rails, (Rovers? Sligo?) Accept it we all want more, but some of us want to do it gradually and are grateful that we are in the process of establishing ourselves. I dont argue you want the same for the club as us (to win everything) but face it what you are saying here is not achieving anything except annoying everyone who is trying to do their bit.Quote:
