I'm taking you seriously, its just hard to listen to sh!te spouted from kids like sporting! :p
Word tonight that Dundalk have got Dessie Baker.
You get that from our forum or hear it from someone? Great signing if true
Forum, will probably get a text from someone in the morning ;)
tbh anyone who thought sporting where there this season to make up the numbers would be dissappointed. Even before Kilkenny left the league sporting where signing decent first division players. Buckley is a good manager and knows his stuff.
i still think Dundalk will win the league with Shels and Waterford in 2nd and 3rd respectively. Sportings next 4 games will tell us how really good they are.
Barker is now a Dundalk Player..
After reading about 4 pages of sporting's ****e I really do hope your club goes out of business soon :)
I'll be interested to see if all these SP fans will be posting if their league challenge hits the wall
Great 24 hours for Dundalk
We get a €250,000 grant for the youth development centre.
Shels lose, Waterford draw, sign two players.
C'mon the town
without doubt,shels are our biggest threat in terms of potential,they have just hit a bad run of form and injuries,and its up to us to put distance betweeen ourselves and them now,because one thing is for sure,Shels will be back.Sporting are a good side,who will be there or thereabouts but its Shels and a solid and regalvanised Waterford that will be pushing us the hardest IMHO
Regarding the comments on Sporting's fledgling existence, aren't they planning on moving to Swords withing a few years?
Surely there's a lot of untapped potential there?
I honestly think that Fingal will be the team promoted this year after seeing their squad the other night. I never realized how premier it was. Its costing a fair whack too easily in the top three budgets in the league, but how are they staying under the 65% rule. Under 200 freebies at their game the other! They'll finish top dispite having Buckley as their manager with Dundalk running them close.
They've got a huge sponsorship deal from the fruit company whose name escapes me..Kealings or something. They also have significant investment from a property developer who has guaranteed their budget for five years or something like that. They don't really need to be getting people in through the gate to reach their income targets.
Just happy my team is challenging. Didnt expect SF to be up there this season. Just wanted us to be competitive. Which is what we where for the first half. But a good run and a few results have gone our way so now im starting to believe. My head says 2nd or 3rd but my heart says 1st. The next month is the important one, we play all of the contenders that month. While we have done relatively well against them, we have only beaten waterford (should have beaten dundalk at home. YOU KNOW IT;)).
Any way just happy to be up there. lets hope for an exciting end to the season.
We also have sponsorship from Anglo Irish Bank. (just to add to previous post)
