Bohs have done well recently but have no quality back up for Grant & Foley.
I recon you're a closet City fan! ;)Quote:

IMO, if we don't lose a game between now and the end of August (especially the Shels and Derry games) I can't see us not winning it.
Even if we beat you in the Cross we wont win the league, the gap is too big now. I think Derry wont have the consistency over the whole of the season that you will either, it's definitely Corks title unless they throw it away.
you might have to change your signature then :)Quote:

You got to fancy Cork, but if it gets nervy near the end of the season, I'd rather have Kenny than Rico in the dressing-room.
The way we're going, you'd better hope we get nervy in the next week or two so :pQuote:

I know exactly what you mean. A run in the intertoto? Its only worth doing it when you're the first club from your league to do it, just to gain some publicity- not worth anything after that :D :pQuote:

Actually Shels won't have the Inter Toto salvage even. This year's is the last ever isn't it?
Jaysus we're finished so :(Quote:
