So what's the story?
Leo and Dessie in charge anyway.
How's Brush? He looked rightly banjaxed at the end in Terryland.
How about the lads who were ineligible last week - Arcaba, Bajdziak, Manson and Vasas?
Anyone know anything?

have a feeling that it will be a very poor atmosphere, from the home section anyway, away games this season will always be better IMO
Is this something that's just going to be accepted, or is anyone willing to do something about it? Unfortunately, I can't get anywhere near Sligo this weekend, but seriously lads, how long is this fatalistic "There's no atmosphere in the main stand" going to go on? Whose ground is it anyway?
right...congregate far side of the new stand at the back for those who wish to create an atmosphere?
where we were for the first half of the cup semi??
yip.. got it in one
Good stuff. We know from the away match experience that it's not the numbers that count. If a couple of hundred get in there and behave like you're at an away match (for a lot of people, that's what being in the Treacy Avenue stand will feel like anyway :) ), you should get a right racket going. See if you can bully the stiffs into joining in as well. They might even find they enjoy it.
If you think you'll have difficulty getting into the mood, you could always hire a minibus, buy a few crates of Dutch Gold and spend the morning driving laps of Lough Gill.
Wish I could be there. :mad:
slightly off topic but choice is 11/4 to score anytime tomorrow and foyzer is 6's....almost better then the ssia's:)
With who?
I think Derry will be a good test for you see where you going this season .
yeah sure it will. :rolleyes: derry hammered us all but once last season and we still finished 5th. one game (esp against top teams) isnt going to define your season. unless your expecting to break top 4 which we arent.Quote:

I had a dream about the game last night(although it was played in the Brandywell). We took an early lead through Raf. It was a kick out for Forde in the Derry goal and he had it at his feet and was gonna play it along the ground but Raf went in and challenged him and won the ball and kicked it slowly across the line. Derry equalised a few minutes later though. McHugh lobbed the keeper who was well off his line. Then I woke up so don't know how it finished:D.
same Forde that moved to Cardiff? Damn it anyway, it wont be deja vu!;)Quote:

Well...Derry were really a class above us toay in fairness...We showed some decent promise at the start, but fizzled out...Derry first goal was good, and Brush could possibly have done better with the second, but in saying that, good penalty save....
We need to get an atmosphere...
derry were better than us, i agree.Quote:

faz imo, has stepped his performance and commitment up hugely. well done
for 20 minutes or so...he was decent though...Quote:

Turner looked very good going forward and I'd like to see him on the wing against Longford. Kelly and Coleman also did well when they came on.
Deserved red for Rogers too, very dangerous tackle. Fenlon had no right to complain.
manson played well, as did raf.
any news on gary curran?
did derry bring much of a crowd?
eh.. the blue stand was half full with derry support.
More than half full, nearly 3/4 of it was Derry fans, including the few down the Railway End.Quote:

any1 know when judge will be fit?
He's been training for the past 5 or 6 weeks in England and went over on his ankle first day (Thursday) back training with us but nothing serious. So his fitness levels should be ok i would think. Was back in England today due to a family bereavement.Quote:
