Bradford are a lot better than Margate.
We're not very good.
We did win any of our friendlies by two or more last season. In fact, I don't remember winning any mid-season friendly by two or more except for Margate.
You can't predict what sort of team Bradford will have out.
Nor what team we'll have out, given we played two days ago.
You'd be mad to bet on that.
thanks for reply but its UCD +1.5 not -1.5.
So a 1 goal loss and bet still wins. UCD +1.5 is well above EVS at the mo which is tempting to me.
Whoops!
These are still very variable games to be betting on. We lost 4-0 to Aberdeen last season mainly because we put out a few triallists. I'd still avoid, especially as we had a game only on Sunday. It's entirely possible we'd put out a second string or an experimental team.
Shows what you know, pineapple stu, 1-0 UCD.
Good call as ever, pineapple stu, 1-1.
Indeed!
We have made the changes I reckoned on at least. And the first of four trialists on the bench has come on. For Ayman, our best player so far.
1-1 now.
Ha! 2-1 up now.
We've made six changes from Sunday. Two of those who've kept their places have two senior starts between them. So I stand by my advice! :)
Subbed off after half an hour, humiliating for the lad. Must not be Bradford quality.
Given he had the Bradford right back in knots, I reckon we took him off before Bradford got the cheque book out
2-2 now
He's a good player alright anytime I've seen him. What do you reckon is his level?
From four or five games? Impossible to say. But he has a physicality I've not seen in a ucd player since Sammon.
3-2! Tayeed Mustafa
Ah is that all he's played? I figured he'd been playing all season. That the Mustapha who used to play for Rovers?
Drogs 1 up over MK Dons.
He's been injured since Limerick. Seventh game I think.
Dunno on Mustafa. Can't be that many though! Winger; really short guy
Can never remember a night when two LOI clubs won friendlies versus English opposition.
Don't think there was a single win versus English opposition last year.
Pineapple Stu despite your best efforts you didn't talk me out of the bet! When I saw UCD had a reasonably strong first team out I went for it.
Historic night for the league. I'm almost in tears I'm so proud.Quote:

Tomorrow night its
Bray v MK Dons
Bohemians v Wolves
We really didn't have a strong first team though. Corbet in nets was making his debut; never even played any friendlies so far as I know. Ryan and Coyne are reserve defenders; Douglas and Kav are first choice. Sloggett made his debut; Cannon had played one game and Molloy one and a bit. Burke is a reserve generally and Ayman was coming back from injury. Creevy is first choice. Still, will take the result! And glad you won your bet. :)Quote:
