David Jeffrey has lost the plot
Now make it a treble: Jeffrey
Monday, May 07, 2007
Linfield manager David Jeffrey has told Bluemen to get ready for another day of celebrations next Saturday as the newly-crowned JJB Sports Irish Cup winners prepare for the next stage of their terrific treble attempt.
The Blues sealed a league and cup double for the second season in a row on Saturday with a penalty shoot-out win over Dungannon Swifts and now they are gearing up for the visit north of Drogheda United in the Setanta Sports Cup final this week.
And Jeffrey is planning on leading his men to yet more glory and becoming all Ireland champions for the second time in three years.
"We will be up for it next week, don't worry," he said.
"This is a funny place to be at. You strive and strive and strive to achieve and once you do that you're looking for the next thing.
"That's just the attitude we have at Linfield. We'll be back in training on Tuesday and you make no mistake, we want to be champions of 32 counties."
And it's clear to see just why Jeffrey is so fired up for the battle for all Ireland supremacy.
"I'm sick sore and tired of the hallions down south slagging us off, particularly that crowd from Cork," he seethed.
"They are the most ungracious group of people that I have ever met in my life, especially Joe Gamble.
"What annoys me is the ungracious big-headed attitude of them. They are an absolute joke and I'll tell you; Cork are absolutely nowhere, they've done nothing and they're pathetic."
