We weren't favourites when the odds came out. We're strong favourites now. It's down to our fans putting money down rather than a true reflection I'd say.Quote:

Will not be down to fans putting money down decent liquidity in asia. Plenty of other people fancy Cork and with decent amounts of money too.Quote:

I doubt any LOI club has the fanbase to influence the odds of a European fixture to any noticeable extent tbh.Quote:

Then consider that lots of other gamblers who aren't LOI fans - including overseas - will take an interest in European fixtures given their profile.
I wouldn't have thought that there would have been much money going on the game. Probably an incorrect assumption. I know our lads have been punting on us, but yeah, I'd assume small money.Quote:

Cork doing fine so far and definitely have the beating of them.
Only a matter of time before Cork score, surely. They're exerting good pressure now and looking dominant. Levadia's keeper looks very dodgy with Cork challenging him a few times with shots and corners. No real threat from Levadia so far.
Levadia down to ten men and Cork have a free-kick in a great position here.
Away goal for Cork from the free-kick just before half-time. Great stuff.
Cork are battering them.
Dream start really. A goal and a red card in the first half. Just need to kick on and hopefully end the tie here
The default mentality of a City fan is "How do we **** it up from here!?"
Maguire the best player on the park by a country mile.
Cillian Sheridan misses a penalty for Jagellonia

Dream scenario so far with them being a man down. Would love to see us kick on and get another 1 or 2 if we can

Go on the Langers :)
