I know it might be silly to judge the difference in standards on just one game ( I can't wait for next week! ), but if a mid table eL team who haven't started their season yet can put it up to the IL league leaders then I would guess that Shels ( and Cork if they play well ) will absolutely cream the other IL teams.
I have the match on my PC as an .avi file. I can put the goals online if anyone has any webspace. Anyone?
Don't suppose you could e-mail them?Quote:

Just finished watching the replay of the match on Setanta - it was interesting to watch again with a clear head.
I wonder what odds you would get now on Longford wining that group?
3 points down with 3 games to play,
but they finished by far the stronger side on the night & were unlucky not to get a draw. I just feel now that they could surprise Linfield & the Glens & win their other 3 games!
Should I head down to Paddy Power's now? :D
Yes :) I feel we can still get out of that group. We are only going to get better with match fitness/sharpness etc.Quote:

Didn't really produce last season for us but he may prove useful yet this season, certainly was effective when he came on on Tuesday.
I don't know if there is much difference between the 3 top IL sides but Longfords forte is Cup games whereas they would be a bit behind Shel$ and Cork City in quality. If assume thats true then would give greater belief in eL side to win competition.
Didn't produce lasts season? I seem to remember him scoring your most important goal ...Quote:

He nearly won it back for you on Tuesday, when your strikers had squandered everything and made Glens look good.
I'd have him back in a shot.
Point taken BohDiddley but as a season he didn't have his best one last year. I rate him too though, and he could be a useful option for us.
