Similarly, if me and five mates played the 1928 St James Gate team now, we'd destroy them. I think you'll find that the Alberts had only a slightly older age profile as yours did when they went out of existence, yet were a dramatically better side all around, as evidenced by failing to finish sixth, or indeed failing to finish outside of the top one over their last four seasons:DQuote:

Won't last the week, but nevertheless, a better start than anticipated. It will make the slow slide to 9th all that bit more painful:(
Can you post the results Bluebeard? Can't access it from work and didn't get on last night. I hope my season isn't falling apart too much yet.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, but a decent result that most newly promoted sides would be proud of.
Drunk Babysitters 1-1 UCD AFC
Pants AFC 2-1 Holidaysong FC
Gates of Steel 2-1 Landenstown Forest
Wexford Boys 0-1 Provisional SRFC 77th minute winner - the Boys edged it on possession, but the Provos had way more chances
Ah that's not so bad, hopefully form won't take too much of a hit and my first choice keeper is back now too. I'm just hoping I can get safe in time to give the younger lads 100% experience. I'll probably start throwing them in anyway, as long term it'll pay off more.
Possession: 54-46
Chances: 1-6
It was long past squeaky bum time - we scored with our last chance and Wexford's only chance came one minute later.
Then Pants got a last minute winner and Holidaysong FC missed a penalty at 1-1..

Got away with both Gates of Steel games, but it was the turn of Hedman to capitalise this week and a good result at The Crystal Lake..
A close one alright. The better team did win, but only just. A second very positive showing from the Gates against one of the best teams in the league, but no points on the table for either effort, and Harps win against Holidaysong drops us back into relegation spots. Our little canter may well be over...
Just back from my holidays...and my couple of weeks away from the puter looks like its gonna cost me dearly - form is rock bottom and beaten by Wexford. Our run in is rough too. GofS should be confident.
You should be safe dp, UCD AFC away for us next and a three point lead and a home game against us spare..
Plus, you are at least two levels better than we are. I predict a wallopping as the Pants come ever closer to that elusive first title!Quote:

:cool:
Any retirements for ye? Just one for me, Ozzy Hylander. No loss.
Signor Alfonso Di Napoli is departing. May be leaving a very large hole behind. 7 great seasons
Chuck Inglethorpe, was no Matias Westlin but a big loss all the same.
Goodbye to Mr Bernie Fielder!!
No retirements for me, athough I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.. :o
Somewhat relieved that I have no retirements either. And looking dafe now too, hopefully a win tonight to be really sure.
