1. Dundalk
2. Cobh
3. L37
4. Harps
5. Athlone
6. Kildare
7. Monaghan
8. Wexford
9. Kilkenny
10. Shels
WeXford Youths to finish in top half of table - probably fifth.
Wthout sounding like a smart ass y didnt you put them 5th so
1. Drogs
2. Pat's
3. Cork
4. Bohs
5. Derry
6. Shamrock
7. Sligo
8. Bray
9. UCD
10. Galway
11. Waterford
12. Longford
League Cup: Derry City
FAI Cup: St.Pat's
First Div:
1. Dundalk
2. Cobh
3. Limerick
Haven't been too impressed with Drogs to be honest but Pat's are too unpredictable losing to the likes of Galway and Waterford already. Bray have a good side and should be better (just about) than the other teams down there. Derry will also improve but poor Longford they are fecked and they will probably not return to the top flight for some time. Survival of the fittest and all that.
To be fair,when any of the contenders play the cack teams, Drogheda are the only ones, you'd be 95% confident in not ****ing up.

We have had a feckin nightmare with injuries and are still at the top of the leauge .If we can get some of the injured back then we should go on and win it .Rumours going round hell ( UCD ) on earth on friday night was that Jason gavin and Fabio are due to return much sooner that expected , and if we can get Richie Baker and Ollie Cahil playing we will have a strong squad for the run in :)Quote:

Sami is doing brilliantly at the minute (he's by far the best footballer at the club) but he cant do it alone.Quote:

As for the big names coming back - its only Fabio and Gavin that'll make that much difference.
Prem: Cork
UEFA: Drogs
Intertoto: Shams
1st: Cobh
FAI Cup: Limerick
League Cup: Derry
Promoted: Finn Harps
Doolin doesn't want Richie or Ollie.Quote:

Can't see Drogs losing it due to fact they've done so well even with all the injuries. Bohs to sneak 2nd from Cork. Pats to slide down to 4th. Rovers done well so far but don't have the squad. Derry & Sligo inconsistent so have them finishing 6 and 7. UCD solid, Galway can't win at home. Waterford are very poor and Longford are dead and buried.

Pats have by a mile the best 15 players and I think they have the spine and the good buzz around the club with Kelleher at the moment to go all the way.
We are being wildly underestimated by the usual mongs, this team win will leagues but not this year. All our losses came from naive play, which is behind us. Cant see us losing more than 2 or 3 more games. Entertains me no end that we will fade, seeing as we are the fittest team in the league.
Drogs will choke as their manager fails to control his squad.
Derry will improve under the new regieme. Cork to remain a selling club and plod along. Connor to be found out and the usual nonsense of harassing the manager to begin in D7. The culture of mediocrity to continue
The rest is just the rest.
Ask Keith Fahey how Doolin controls the squad ............Quote:

Im starting to get excited by us but were still very unpredictable. If we keep Roy I think we can make second.

edit: Apologies this is micls not Gavinzac
I know it's probably black and red tinted glasses but I really do think Bohs can do it this year. actually I fancy a treble ..............Defo black-n-red glasses
If you can't score on us you cant beat us and we're just not leaking goals
Theres a difference between kicking someoen out for unprofessionalism and guiding a quality team to a title....Quote:

Ah well, another season of punishment won't do them any harm... :D
That's a bg if. He needs time for the new squad to get used to the used squad.Quote:

Wrong, BillyG! Eddie Gormley is making a difference at Bray. You can see it in their style of play, and the fact that a couple of "donkeys" are being moved on and some quality players being brought in. I predict Bray will be in or on the verge of top 6 by the end of season! :pQuote:

Premier Division predictions are easy. Between Shamrock and Bohemian for 4th
1. United (that 7/1 looks good now, got on at 5s myself:) )
2. City
3. Supersaints
4. Gypsies
1. Dundalk
2. Cobh
No luck for harps:mad:
1. Cork City :ball: Best footballing team by a street
2. Drogheda YAWN!!!
3. St. Pats
4. Derry LATE CHARGE
5. Bohs
6. Shamrock Rovers
7. Sligo
8. UCD
9. Galway
10. Bray
11. Waterford
12. Longford
I see we're 6th again. Even hapless Derry are expected to surge past us. :rolleyes:
We will finish minimum 4th, and probably above it. And of the top 5 now, 4 of them play each other on the last day, while we're at home to Waterford. :D We are in a very strong position at the moment, and I expect us to push on from here. With our strong home form, (1 defeat in last 26 matches) we'll be there or thereabouts come November 9th.
