Gannon was involved in the Anglo-Irish debacle. Heard he owes a lot of money. Just wonder how long he will stick with FIngal for.

To be honest we dont have to. With other clubs unable to pay the wages they used to, Fingal dont have to offer ridiculous money to get their men. We just have to offer a little more than other clubs can. Plus the fact we offer college scholorships to our players is another reason we have attracted players. Paisley and Zayed picked us because of this.

That's a good point and I think it will be the case. Fingal will be in a good position again next season when it comes to wages. And with European Football a possability not many players would overlook the club.

UCD AFC in partnership with the rugby club maintains the ground. It was the joint fundraising of the clubs that lead to its redevelopment to bring it up to its current standard. The club also pays for its scholarships, not the university. The university provides the basic framework for the club to exist within but most of its expenses and fundraising are done by itself.

Who do Fingal do their scholarships with? DCU?

You didn't go to the game as I neutral now did you?
There was families supporting Bray Wanderers in the full Main Stand. If you took an aggressive attitude towards the stewards they were right to keep out of there.

The semi-final is the best I have seen Sporting play so far this season. They carved open Bray numerous times in the first half.

It's great for the First Division to have a team in the FAI Cup Final.

Some of the crap posted on here is crazy. There are two ways major leagues are run around the world, the franchise system (MSL, A league etc.) and the (for lack of a better term) free market system (european leagues). we have the latter here. SF are operating within the system. They may well come a cropper like Shels or Drogs, but untill then, fair play to them. The problem is not S. Fingal, the problem is the system, yet the same people who give out about SF, brand them as a franchise, when in fact they are the complete opposite.

what the hell are you on about all I wanted to do was sit down for the second half as I was cold whatever if logical thinking is beyond those stewarding fingal games then forget it.

Why didnt you go in there first? You arrived late, made your mind up to go on the terrace with the away fans and now you blame the stewards for not letting you into the stand. Its good to see that the stewards are up to their job.

Definitely no need to be segregating people at a Fingal/Bray game.

Take a chill pill.

Also some players have the luxury of a free vehicle and apartment while contracted to Sporting Mongrel.
