Is City 2-0 Harps the FT?

I reckon people have pretty short memories. It was definitely our worst home performance of the season, but I think nerves and weather are more than justified excuses for that. fact is, we're in the semis, whether we deserve to be or not.

On a related subject, does anyone know why people were booing the team off at half-time. I think it was only a small number in the middle of the Shed who were responsible, but it was totally out of order.

Over the 2 games, I reckon harps were as good as us, but we won and thats all that matters.

simple really it is because they go to a couple games every couple of years. often hear it from "regular" city "fans" who live in cork yet who when slagging off the team admit they went to a one game ayear (if at all):mad:

What rubbish !! Grow up boy will ya !!
People are entitled to their opinion on the teams performance without some Dublin based exile "claiming" they don't go to enough games.

yes child!!!!!! but only if they go to regular matches. how could winning 2-0 in acup 1/4 final be a bad result. yeah the performance mightn't have been great but to say it was the worst city performance you have seen probably means you haven't been to too many games in the last couple of years :D

I didn't say that.
I said it was 'one' of the worst performances.
And by God i've seen some crap over the years but it won't deter me from going to support my team.
If what i've seen in the past hasn't put me off going by now then I don't think anything will.

And also it doesn't mean anything like what you are suggesting.
I have been and will continue to be a regular no matter what your small mind thinks.

Lose the "I'm a better fan than thou" routine, we are all fans here and are all entitled to an opinion.
We are not all going to agree all the time.
C'est la vie.

ah you always get knobs like that, you know the type of people who want gunther out and the like;)

seriously though i reckon the number of new city fans like razor will be in their droves now acting like they were always there, claiming winning 2-0 and getting to the cup semi is the start of things going downhill.

they should have been there when we lost to ucd at the cross or 0-3 to bohs or that whole awful end of season thing wheer we lost 5 out of 6 leage games etc etc;)

all the same eanna give them a belt with the bodhran next time they start booing:D

just because you criticise the team doesnt mean you are a newcomer. even if he was so what?

one other thing if there is so many people who have been going to city games since 1985 as a lot of people claim why were crowds so awful ?

Go way outta that, Hurley, Cork did not have grounds with nappy changing facilities in 84 !:D

I think most of us on this forum are in the same boat. If last season didn't get rid of us, nothing will. (Unfortunately same may be true for Gunther :D )

"if we can't beat a lower First Divison team at home"

Where do you get off boy!!! Lower First Divison team me arse, we shoulda beat yis in Ballybofey and frustrated ye for 7o mins in Cork. We were runners up last season (which would have seen us in the Premier any other year) and are the form side in Div 1 this year having won the Div 1 Cup already. how does that define lower, you've obviosly not been followin this league very long.

I hate mindless put downs like this just cause we're in Division 1, we had a dozen or so fans down on the Tueday, Cork only had about 50 on the Saturday night in Ballybofey, and last time we met in the cup (and knocked yous out) ye had NO fans at the midweek replay in Ballybofey.

Of course you'll know that as you were no doubt in Finn Park last week.
