Your Team Of The Season.

Some possibly controversial selections

Darren Quigley (May have conceded the most goals but Bray's defence has been horrendous, possibly Ger Doherty but couldn't have any of those mentioned in the team!)

Ger O'Brien
Conor Kenna
Gavin Peers
Ian Bermingham

Gary McCabe (Fair enough it's based nearly all on form for last few weeks but if I were to pick Barry McNamee it would be based on form from early season)
Richie Towell
Killian Brennan
Daryl Horgan (kind of faded a bit recently but was Cork's only good player for most of the first 2 series)

Rory Patterson
Dave McMillan (his goals for UCD gave them a fighting chance of survival)

A few unlucky ones:

Dane Massey
Andy Boyle
Stephen McDonnell
Raf Cretaro
Barry McNamee

GK Brendan Clarke
RB Ger O'Brien
CB Gavin Peers
CB Conor Kenna
LB Ian Bermingham
RM Daryl Horgan
CM Richie Towell
CM Greg Bolger
LM Killian Brennan
ST Philly Gorman
ST Rory Patterson

Or something like that

I've lost all matches of the last month as I was always from the country and watched too much matches of the weaker sides but here it is:

GK Brendan Clarke (as for the guy who mentioned Quigley, wouldn't consider it an absurd too, would be my second choice)

DL Ian Bermingham
DC Derek Prendergast
DC Kenny Browne
DR Ger O'Brien

MC Riche Towell
MC Ronan Finn
MC Chris Forrester

FW Rafaele Cretaro
FW Rory Patterson
FW Dave McMillan

Gary Rogers

Simon Madden
Gavin Peers
Andy Boyle
Dane Massey

Richie Towell
Greg Bolger
Killian Brennan

Conan Byrne
Rory Patterson
David McMillan

I'm going with a Spain formation as I don't think any striker this season has been outstanding

Barry Ryan

Ger O'Brien
Kenny Browne
Gavin Peers
Iarlaith Davoren

Greg Bolger
Killian Brennan
Richie Towell

Conan Byrne
Kieran Djilali
Daryl Horgan

Clarkey
Ger O'Brien
Conor Kenna
Big Kenny
Bermo

Conan Byrne
Killer
Bolger
Russell
Git Forester

Bisto

Champions 2013 :)

Substitute Boyle for Peers and it matches the PFAI selection.

No defenders from the team that conceded the least number of goals this season?

Yes, but any team without Gavin Peers just isn't right.

Alan Cawley has named his team of the season.

Has Djilali been that impressive? Both times I saw him in Thomond park and a few times on telly I thought he looked poor enough. The only game he impressed me in was the FAI semi-final a few weeks ago.

I'm delighted with O'Donnell getting the recognition for a great season. While Towell provides the flair in the Dundalk midfield O'Donnell is the driving force of the whole team. He pops up everywhere on the pitch and has scored some crucial goals. The team was lost when he was suspended for a few games this season and that's his only fault, he has a tendency to talk himself into stupid bookings.

He was very good against us, but those who saw him week in and week out will be much better judges.

He fully deserves a place in the team of the season if you ask me. Him and Peers have been our two best players I would say.

At least Alan Cawley had the good sense to go with the formation that most teams in the league

One of the worst individual displays I saw this year was Djilali in Richmond Park the first time Pats beat Sligo. He was lost

He was excellent in the cup semi and Sligo fans have been praising him for months though

Has the potential to be the best winger the league has seen in a long time. Was very unfit for the first round of games and went through a stage where he needed everyone around him to play well for him to blossom.

But was our best player, along with Peers and Ndo from May/June onwards.

I'd be confident of keeping him next year but equally wouldn't be surprised if he was back in England by January.

If we had a fully fit Djilali and Ventre for the full season, we'd have pushed Pat's a lot closer.
