Yeah good man, Dundalk is 45 mins away from Dublin. Get a direct bus from Cork to Dublin after work and you'll miss half the match at least.Quote:

Rovers and Pats are a good step below both Cork and Dundalk.Quote:

That game aside the best team we have seen has been Sligo. They battered us in Turners Cross and were apparently very good in the Showgrounds as well.
We're great.
Those Cork lads are alright. Leave em alone.
Cork are more than a decent side and will certainly offer a very strong challenge to us in the run in. I was at that 4-0 win, I'm not sure they were that bad, I just think we were outstanding on the night and it could have been 5 or 6-0. You can't judge a side on one game, it's the reaction after and apart from losing to Pats a week later, they won something like 8 from the next 9.
Anyway back in topic, what's the latest on transfers with any side? I can't see Dlk taking anyone else in, McDermott appears to be the only bit of business for us.
Was it City Rebel who got the league of Ireland doppelgängers Christy Fagan and Anto Flood mixed up????Quote:

The main thing is that we are going in the right direction.
Dundalk have to be favourites for me.
I know they have an advantage with that rubber pitch of theirs but they are a very good side.
I think that was me.Quote:

I have watched Cork a few times this season and admire and respect their work rate and determination. They have attributes that can win a league title.
This year they are up against a Dundalk side who can more than match those attributes but also add quality.
That quality should count in the end.
This Dundalk side are miles ahead of Cork and the points difference between the 2 sides at the end of the season will show that.Quote:

But unfair to imply Cork don't have quality. Dundalk just have more.Quote:

He's signed with Ballinamallard
Still?Quote:

When does the Window close for LOI players, is it end of July just for transfers within the league or can you take in or move out a player to UK for eg up to end of Aug when their window closes?
Sligo release Gaynor, renew Donelan and Keating until 2015:

A few people in Sligo happy to see Gaynor go. Not me. Quality player never used right - played out of position. If we're planning to let players of his quality go and expect to replace them with kids we could be looking at an extended spell in the doldrums.
It's refreshing to be crap and not linked with anyone anymore.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but you were linked with Kilduff this morning.Quote:

Just to clarify for anyone wondering aswell those yanks are from the 4th (FOURTH) tier of the Americans leagues.
Which is one tier below the ladies league afaik.
He had one good season the year we won the league and was living off that all last season. He has been terrible this season. This 'played out of position' thing is also crap. He has publically said that he seen himself as a left back and that was his preferred position. His defending is nowhere near good enough ... his positioning is absolutely dreadful and his decision making is way off. Dead balls was always his strength and they have been below average this season.Quote:
