United travel to Sligo tonight in the League Cup. I wonder if JK will put out a weakened team ahead of the Harps game on Friday.
I hope not. We are a professional football club. What is the point of spending
E30,000 a week if we have no interest in winning trophies ?
Paul Cook will be fielding a strong team, as per todays Star - "The best way
to achieve recognition is by winning trophies, and thats what the players, the club and I want to do in the League Cup".
Not a hope in hell we are going to put out our first 11, it would be an idea maybe for both sets of fans to help each other out with some team news to see if we can cover ahem expenses for ourselves. :)
www.galwayunitedfc.net will provide a live text match updates.
They can be found here.

Agree with Rovers Maniac we will field a strong team but not our starting 11 maybe Pat Jennings in goals for us would be a change anyways
nil all after et so its now down to pens
come on utd
United won 6 - 5 on pens.
Well done JK.
5-6 Penos to Galway According to Xscores!! :D:D:D
The lads will be a bit tired for friday but who cares,quarter final of the league cup and hopefully home draw vrs Drogs or someone.
When is the draw?
Good stuff. Two clean sheets in a row away to Derry and Sligo. That's a definite improvement on what went before. Have to make ourselves difficult to beat at the very least if we are going to survive.
Hopefully can get a win now on Friday.
Is the draw not already made? Brandywell in the next round I thought
Our players, and the supporters who travelled to the Showgrounds, are a
credit to Galway United Football Club.
The fighting spirit that we have lost for years seems to be returning.
No draw made yet according to the bottom line of this.... http://www.eircomloi.ie/other-compet...ason/fixtures/Quote:

Tough next round anyway, pick of the teams would be Bray, UCD or Wexford. The you have the likes of Drogs, Bohs, Derry or Cork!!
Would'nt be disappointed as long as we get home advantage!!
210 minutes away from home without conceding a goal, from the
team with the previous worst defensive record in the League, is
fighting spirit.
Well done United.
We hace been pi$$ poor at home all season. We have had three draws on the road (well, 2 plus we won a game on pens :D).Quote:

9 games in the league without a win too isn't it?
Fair play to the fans who did travel though, didn't make noise, but fair journey for a Tuesday night LC game.
I wasn't there, again, well done to those from Galway who travelled.
Onwards and upwards !
