I thought UCD would go down but i really admire their effort and dispite little fans etc. i hope they stay up... Drogheda tried to run before they could walk and with their track record on signing moneybags i'd fancy them to go down... Bray, i hate the Carlisle creché....
Bray automatically, i'd say this is one year UCD won't get away with it. No place to hide in the new ten team league!

Besides you'd have little problem going to Belfield rather than Drogs... The good thing about a Dublin and District league is that the only games i haven't seen are the Derry and Cork away ties...
That will be three games this season...
Waterford and Limerick to come up... nice one... but i don't know who'd come up with Waterford...
does that not say you want lims to come up?:confused:Quote:

Magoo. as you know, what you'd like and what you get are two different things.... I'd like Limerick but i don't know what we'd get...
Belfield is a soul destroying place to watch ball.....Quote:

Anyone who plays on Thursday nights should be automatically banned from the premier (and that includes Derry....)Quote:

I wouldn´t say banned, but I agree with your thinking. It´s crazy.Quote:

I voted for "UCD automatically, Bray in the play off" mainly because I think that is the option that will benefit the league most. i wouldn´t be surprised to see the drogs replace one of them in going down though.
I've agree on banning thursday night weekend matches for some time now. Thursday is not the weekend! Should clubs be allowed to play their weekend matches om wednesdays in future?Quote:

Exactly.... wasn't particularly trying to start this debate again - but I'd rather Waterford didn't make it up for this reason alone....Quote:

I understand Derrys position regarding the Dog track but what waterfords excuse... Friday or Saturday night's would be great... nice town IMO so I wouldn't mind the trip...
Why? Its not that bad..........but for away it isQuote:

Exactly.... the clubs that play thursday have no regard for opposition players, officials and not least supporters...... Thursday night is not the weekend......Quote:

I voted for Bray automatically and Drogheda in the play-offs.
As far as I'm concerned Bray are already down, they have little or no confidence and all that jazz.
Then we come to Drogheda, I think that they're financial problems will have crippled them completely by the time UCD visit O2 park later this season, if they still own it that is...
Also they insist on playing Myler which is absolute suicide, other than that their strike force is desperate. Fabio put in a good performance on Friday (apparently) but the simple fact is is that he's not good enough for the top division. He's quick but he's got no ability in the air and he has no physical presence at all. Their management and board are clueless too.
UCD then are in no financial trouble and have a very good team spirit, we are also in good form when it counts. The only worries that I have for us is our next two games against Bohs and Shamrock Rovers (I'm fairly sure that's it), I can sense two very good performances coming and two unlucky losses too. I realise that I should be a bit more upbeat especially after the Cork and Pat's game but we've had games like this too many times before (the game against $h£l$ being a perfect example).
But, if we can come out of those games in the same position that we're in now then I don't see us going down.
That was pretty much my thinking, I voted Bray + Drogheda as well.
The next three games are Bohs away, Rovers away and $hels at home BTW.
i wud like dundalk to come up with waterford and bray and ucd to go down........so 2 louth teams in the premier division
isn´t one bad enough :eek: ;)Quote:
