Our back four is having trouble doing the basics right lately. We seem unable to defend set pieces. 2 goals against us in Kilkenny, 4 in Dundalk, 1 against Shelbourne all scored from corners, 4 goals from free kicks.

Our midfield is strong while your own isn't that great.

Your defence is solid while our front two of Lavine and McT will prove a handful for the best of teams.

Along with all of this Heffernan is due a good game. He might be saving it for you.

We just need a win to get us going. Going for a 3-1 win to us.:ball:

Just about the ground. The away section is at the end of the stand furthest away from the turnstiles. As gael knows wherever you sit the view is perfect.

I will be filming the match so will have all the action on line Monday sometime.

We haven't exactly posed the greatest ariel threat so far..........

Eric really shouldn't be causing us problems tbh

Any place to hang flags??

Our midfield is generally Heffernan,Stevie Gavin on the wings and Mixie Harty, Davy Byrne in the centre and but Ian Rossiter was picked there on occasions as well.

Places to hang them as far as I know at the back of the stand and have never seen an issue with them being laid across seats unless we get a 2000+ turnout.

Eric even at 35 is still a greatplayer and can cause defences trouble. Our bench up front is strong as well with McGee and O'Dowd waiting for a chance.

The set piece issue isn't caused by height for us but by players not attacking the ball and letting it get to ground trying to clear it.

Personally I don't want to make a prediction :p

The heart and the logic part of my head says a win but the L37 part of my head predicts a crushing defeat and a rush down into the mid-table mire......

The game? 1-1
Love triangle? You and needtoknow in a fight to the death, winner takes all!

Good old Mixie, always nice to have someone to give hell to. :p

Davy Byrne aswell. I think the word I'm looking for is "combative".......

I think all Blues fans would be far more worried about O'Dowd. Actually on an aside why hasn't he been starting??

Monkfish is a type of fish? no $hit sherlock! And as for Athlone, we were all impressed by their firework launching capabilities against galway last year (live on tv aswell) so they will be treated with the upmost respect i can confirm.

"Corner Boys" fill me in on this.

Scum element has now been removed from our crowd with the new ground. A lot easier to keep an eye on people. Club is coming down strong on this. You will have a couple of stewards looking after you.

Supporters even warned over the use of the word W*nker. So read the ground regulations carefully.

If any idiots threaten you through BEBO or anything like that send me a link or a name and I will pass it on to the event controller and he will stop them entering

Battery,the corners boys are nothing and monkfish,they are nothing to worry about,no-one is interested in getting into any fights and theres nothing going on on bebo,a few of the lads were chating to some of the limerick lads.

Best of luck

We've never had a problem in Athlone lads, always treated well by the locals, don't think it will be any different this time around.

As for the game I'm going for a 1-1 draw
