ok for teh ultra pedantic
I mean a cvlub which will have a top 4 budget
bohs will have that budget
they've had it WITHOUT the land deal
its likely to increase
dolan had it at pats
fenlon at shels
rico at cork
I'd be wary of OConors Bohs to be honest - theres no better manager than money and a guy who can talk things up
....and in a rubbish division......! :D ;)Quote:

If they start 2007 the way they finished 2006, they'll be more than a match for anyone.Though I don't think they'll retain the Setanta this year.
I applaud the brevity of this post. New policy Steve?Quote:

I don't think anyone at Bohs is predicting a league win this season. We have a long way to travel from last year's fiasco. But Connor is quietly busy building the team, and Heary is, apparently, already in the bag.
Here's a speculative lineout lifted from thebohs.com:
Murphy
Heary Burns Maher Powell
Joxer Hunt Turner/Heary Singh/Ward
Fenn Crowe
Subs
Rossiter
Ferguson
Harkin
Mansaram
Turner/Heary
That doesn't include Conor Downey, who apparently will be bid for this week, though that might depend on whether Wardie goes to Wolves or Birmingham.
It might take time to gel, but that squad hardly will be automatically second best to Drogheda.
Cheers. ;)Quote:

Ricer's still there -- that is just a speculative line-up. IMO he's better than he's given credit for.Quote:

I gave up defending players there long ago (I think it was after I made a few arguments in favour of Robbie Doyle :eek: ) :DQuote:
