Ryan, Hunt and Crowe would be a huge lose to Bohs ... Kenny going was the start of this landslide i think. Hate to see it as Bohs are technically a very good football playing side. Used to love Bohs games, ..... while we didn't always come out on top, the game was always good and entertaining.
And a manager not getting involved in contact talks for three of his best players .... am i hearing things right ?? :confused: Surely this is totally mad. Three quality players that if you didn't have them on your team, you sure as hell wouldn't like to have them playing against your side. I dunno ?? :eek:
Exciting times ahead for Bohs
Fear not fellow Bohs fans for the future is bright. Remember it has been these big name players who have let the side down more than any others over the last two years (Crowe being the exception). Hawkins, although on his day the best Central Defender in the el is now past his best as the Injuries have caught up with him. Ken Oman will prove to be a more than able replacement. Losing McGuinness last year was a bigger loss in my eyes. Bobby Ryan although performing slightly better under Farrelly has being an enigma for the last 2 years. I will miss the dazzling runs but lets face it, it rarely caused penetration where it matters. Caffrey was the sort of player you'd ask after the game ' Was Caffrey playing tonight?' Solid but hid too much for my liking. Hopefully a fully fit Farrelly will be his replacement with a re-energised and fully motivated King Kevin Hunt in the centre of the pitch. Lynch will not be missed, although proving to be a better central midfielder than full back. I didn't dislike Damien Lynch but he didn't do much for me either. Simon Webb was the worst player in the team during the 2003 season, although slightly more consistent this year. Signing a new left back must be a priority but I could see Keddy in this position.
Farrelly, Stephen Ward and Stephen Rice will be a pleasure to watch and if Grant continues where he left off this year then we'll have no worries. Just need Dominic Foley top pull his finger out and we'll be right up there come November '05.
Trust me, I'm an engineer!
