You won't get anyone to put money on either way.
Football-wise, we can't complain at all if we are in the First Division next year.
If Bray don't turn things around and you stay up then it's going to be one long season.
I know.
A lot of fans I talk to have radical ideas to stop the rot. Some of them are really abnnoyed about things but I really don't know what can be done to effectively make things better.
A relegation could be that radical solution. Relegation in 2003 allowed UCD to rebuild after the Doolin disaster and losing all our key players. In the comfort of the First Division we blooded in the likes of Quigley, Kenna, McWalter and Dicker and regained confidence. Teams have been known to turn to corner immiediately, but it's going to be so hard to rebuild in a competitive Premier Division.
Crowds and possibly ground could be the only difference between UCD and Bray if it down to us competing to stay up and you'd have the advantage. We'll see.
in all honesty Eddie Gormley needs to make wholesale clearances in the off season,there are a lot of players with no competition and they have go two comfortable. also st.josephs boys are a poor club!! they shouldn't be just signing there players if they can bearly hack it in ddsl.
Bray deserve to be relegated by far the worst team to watch
A lot of players with no competition - an oximoron if ever i heard oneQuote:

The main examples of players not been punished for mistakes that lsl players would make. they made mcgovern captain he is the worst centre half i've seen this year. Fox,tarzan and pip have had it too easy they not good enough anymore ship them out and bring in young lads to revive the club.The 3 i just mentioned and tresson are devo's sidekicks and this is reason they are still there. it is devo's view first and foremost and then the clubs. this is true!! favourtism has ruined the club
What are you talking about, Colm Treeson is one of the finest footballers to ever wear a Bray jersey, has played in nearly every position, gives 100% and is no mean talent, he has made reprecentative apperances for the leagueQuote:

How many POTY awards has he won?? 4? And probably another one this year. He is a brilliant, dedicated player, the only one who seems bothered anymore. And at his age, 35 I think, he is still one of the fittest players at the club and one of the fittest semi-pros in the League.
Getting rid of him would be a big mistake, he's the club captain FFS and he's earnt it over the years. Daz out, you must be mad??
Sorry to burst your little bubble there........... but Devo has no longer ANYTHING what so ever to do with Bray Wanderers Football Club. He has even stood down from his position on the board and as Director of Football. He no longer has a say in the club.Quote:

How are the club living in the past?
Don't think he actually means living in the past but that the club is far far to clicky ! for example, @ any other club Foxey would'nt be even making the bench at this stage but yet at out club he is still captian ! which is a fcuking joke ! totally lost his ability to do all the things he was great at - Tackle, header, score, command the midfield etc.... he has been one of our worst players this season. He is only in the team because of Friendship, the same goes for several more players as well.......
Tresson still valuable and should try some of the young players around him. Could lose some as this is always the dangerous time for disillusioned young lads as the LSL transfer deadline approaches and teams like Wayside, Glenmore/Dundrum, Dalkey, Greystones and Workers come calling. They won't want some of club's more "experienced" players!
One To Watch, if Bray Wanderers took your advice and got rid of Colm Tresson then the club would officially be insane, are you actually serious? I reckon he's a front runner for the POTY award the way he's playing. As for Tarzan `having it too easy`, he's barely started any games this season and one which I can remember him starting was the home game -v- Drogheda in which he played very well. And I suppose if you had your way he would'nt have come on as a sub in Drogheda when we were 1-0 down and therefor would'nt have created the opening which got us the draw?
