Funny game soccer waterford manager is dreaming of Europe while half our fans are getting ready to commit Hari Kari.
Lets hope we are loud and proud on friday night and remember lads that Cork are very strict on Alcohol as we know from our last visit down there.:ball:
Disagree with Saigon - Thought Pats were full value for the win. Kirby & O'Neill were brilliant - Pats look the real deal.
Expect O'Flynn to start and a torrid night for Reggie.
Drogheda are getting terrible stick on the other boards for their boring outings so far - no doubt they're relying on Friday week to "get their season started":rolleyes:
cup replay win for cork a couple of seasons ago still sticks in my throat a bit and we will get revenge one day so why not friday as they are off to a mingin start to the season.Quote:

gutted im not going to make it to the match as am in kinsale for a wedding where i know there will be a big crowd of cork fans. will find a tv to see most of the match though and predict 1-1 but hoping for 1-0.
cant see cousins making too many changes as im sure the pre season was all about getting his best 11 and i cant see him changing it so early in the season
Sorry for being a pedantic Pat but dont you mean 0-1 Scotsbeer!!!!!Quote:

Looking forward to this game, many of ye coming down?
Difficult one to predict with so many variables. City have a new defence that will take time to gel and our midfield is lacking if the new boys don't get clearance from FIFA...
Still O'Flynn coming back is bad news for ye, he was probably the best City player in Waterford for his 15 min cameo and won MOTM at the Cross (:rolleyes: ) for a similar amount of time. If he can put in 60 min and O'Donovan cops himself on then your defenders will be in for a hairy time ...
However they might not get any service until the last 10 minutes :rolleyes:
Anyway, enjoy the game and I really hope ye're gracious in defeat:D
aye.. 0-1 with united scoring first !!!!!Quote:

Gough/Rogers
Reggi
James Billy Wes McKenna
O'Flynn Murphs Lester O'Brien
Armstrong
O'Flynn has played on wing for Derry.Need his Experience in Cork.
McKenna is a gamble but can't be any worse than O'Reilly.
If it doesn't work,Cork are that bad or they feel very lucky, Reggi can go to rb, James to mid &
Murphs or O'Flynn can go up front.
Is Gamble suspended for this game? Straigh red in Setanta cup game.
Then that means a Setanta Cup suspension surely.
is gary back?i thought he was not allowed play till June but you said he might be back.was just wondering have utd appealed it or something and are awaiting a reply???
The FAI are appealing the ruling today in switzerland rather than ignoring it like the finnish league. Seems an absolutely crazy rule what with stupid transfer windows and freedom of contract. Mr. Bosman has a lot to answer for.
I'd like to see Tony try a 3-5-2 something like this:
------------------------Rogers---------------------------
----------- Billy---------Wes--------Regi---------
-----Derek ---Murphs-----Foley-----Lester------Tracey
--------------- O'Flynn--------Armstrong---------------------
We'd be banking on Derek and Tracey doing a bit of defending but having the two big lads up front would make us dangerous on the break. I'm staying confident I'll go for a 0-1 United win. COME ON UNITED!
Some intrestings odds on Cork game
Utd to win 15/2
game to be draw 11/4
Utd to win half time / full time 14/1
1 nil win for utd is 14/1
2 nil win for utd is 40/1
personaly I think 1 nil is a great bet worth a small punt :)
5 eway on united to win 1-0 !!
each way??....Quote:

this is more shoddy leadership being displayed by the FAI,they should have really pushed for a decision to be made this week or at least for a meeting(specifically about the rule) to take place.
more evidence for my vote of no-confidence in them.
is it true united lost 1-0 to salthill devon last nite in a friendly played at shiven rovers ground!thats what i heard,it could be bull,if not it's going to be one long season if we can't even beat a junior side!
yip thats true
not good news!!!
i wouldnt be worried about training games id be more worried whose in Goals on friday.It has to be goughie and he should have started last friday.Its not that Dimitris was to blame for our performance but the players and fanS dont seem to have any confidence in him. Its a big call on Friday night as we need points on the board sooner rather than later.
doh ! cammy fraserQuote:

I never expected Cork to be as desperate and act in such an underhand manner to win the match tonight...
I can handle them paying refs to make dodgy penalty decisions BUT
Poisoning Galway's water supply now that's a new all time low. :mad:
When Richie Winter is referee theres hardly a need for them to pay him off anyway:D :D !!Quote:

Richie winter has been a good ref in any of the games i have seen so maybe just maybe. Eamo it was 1993 2-1 herrick and jumbo and we only drew the League cup final 2nd leg 1-1.
was that not in Bishopstown?Quote:

In fairness to Roy O'Donovan, he hasn't said anything out of the ordinary, but the headline certainly got me fired up::mad:
this will only rile the players come on you marron yaaaaaaaaww
brilliant result
HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SHANE TREACY!!!!!!!!
Great team effort, lets hope for the same next week at home to the drogs.
thats a great result, worked unbelievably hard as well. Cousins sharp, lester gave it everything
despite Alan Kelly out to do us again with 5 minutes injury time. This guy has it in for us for years
Shocking match, a draw was a fair result. City were awful but it looks like its gonna be the same as always with away teams parking the bus in front of their goal this season. Well done and good luck!Quote:

not kelly.but your right kelly does screw us alot.anyway tracey,foley,lester,charles,reji were all excellent.cork were poor though and we didnt exactly "park the bus" for the whole game either.murph had a great chance early on and with a few attacks it was only the final ball that was missing.we looked fitter then cork too which was great.
a decent if brief piece about the club on RTE before the match but roddy would do your head in.
just cant wait for next friday night.
poor match, great result though, fare play
