Based on what i saw on tv last season & the Bohs & City pre season games Sunderland are going to notice the big step up required for the Premier League very soon.
Motivating players in the Championship might be enough but if they cannot pass the ball will be shown up in the Premiership.
My personal highlight was the exaggerated Rico, Rico chants at HT & FT on his way towards the tunnell, which he totally milked while Keane was just a few feet behind him, receiving little adulation.
Very funny.
Cheer the Dub, while boo the man who has the freedom of cork, and did so much (good & bad) to put cork on the map, a national hero to some. just stating the facts.Quote:

henderson: ex-city

gutsy: ex-city
mucka: ex-city
murray: ex-city
nolan: ex-city
mccarthy: ex-city
daly: ex-city
caulfield: ex-city
the rest are a mishmash of cobh wanderers and rockmount players.
oh yes the times they are a changing
God yo are really pushin the boat out when you call Henderso ex-city (he will probably be youre next manager when ye cop to Rico)
no passengers in the rest of the lads you named..Nolan gone..Hendo copped on to him,the rest are mostly young lads who just want a to prove they can do it at LOI level..
How are the Cobh lads doin up at City?
murphy is fighting with colin o'brien, admier softic and kilian lordan for 4th choice center mid, though his injuries arent helping his case. devine has another year in him, he has to maintain his consistency. went through a bad patch but being dropped sorted him out.Quote:

Only maybe Carey could have been considered a 1st team regular at City.Quote:

carey, class,
gutsy on loan but class,
Mucky fantastic think hed do way better job than horgan RB, and Lordan
Murray we bought not as if ye dumped him, yell prob look for him back when other murray stops.
Nolan we released
McCarthy still with us yet to score league goal, fair enough.
Daly only 21s player hasnt played for Seniors yet
Caufield has left and didnt play with the senior team.
we have Mike O'Shea, John Meade, Barrett, Cambridge,Deasy,Deady, Hennessy all played with 17s and youths. Mike, John,Barret,Davin all played schoolboys in Cobh.
Correct me if im wrong dont think we have one ex rockmount do we?1 Wanderers.All EL standard. Ye even want Davin our only player who we signed from Wanderers he was only there because his job. Dunno what your problem is so what like, we will always look for players off ye that will improve our squad.
The same thing ye do every week.:DQuote:

The MFA must have made out like bandits on this.
Reading today that tv rights between TG4 & Setanta would have been 45k. I heard it was 5 euro for the programme & were tickets 25 euro?
Even allowing for the costs must have easily pulled in 150k+
Not seen the new turnstiles but they would want to be very nice for 150k.
:eek:
