Handy direct flights from London to kerry with ryanair.
Good few of us ST holders 20+ years are convinced Abibi never played professional football at any level, I abs stand by that, Nattestand turned out to be just lazy, the two of them played at home v Vitesse Arnhem after the 2-2 away draw, we virtually played with 9 players they were useless. On players from abroad, only 2 stood out Jurkoviskis and Stanton, the rest were muck.Quote:

Plus June league POTM Connolly left in July.Quote:

Dundalk's 8.5 will be enough for 2 rounds seeded, possibly even 3 but I don't think it will stretch that far.Quote:

If Derry are not seeded in round 2 if they make it, they may even get an SPL club, as noticed St Mirren currently in 4th.
€250,000 I read last night.Quote:

A superb number 9 who offers a lot more than just his fair share of goals.
Sorry to see our neighbours Harps go down regardless of social media posts everyone knows Harps-Derry is not a rivalry we are simply neighbours. Hopefully can regroup over a couple of years and with new stadium come back.
A sincere congrats to Rovers again, the best team in the country. We are coming for ya tho ?
If your a betting man put money on derry to beat Rovers tonight. I'd say Bradley, Cronin and McPhail have been digging out their boots from under the stairs, as with all the injuries Rovers have they'll probably get a game tonight.
Say Derry will be wrapping up players in cotton wool with the final in 2 weeks. This could be a dour nil all, with the highlight for fans being the presentation of the trophy.Quote:

Byrne and Burke didn't do much though and I would have thought they'd be the ones making the difference.Quote:

Not sure how the game tonight will go. Two second string sides playing for pride? I think we will want to win for the sake of the occasion but I don't know who can play.
I think a point secures second for us so both teams with a decent number of changes play out a nice quiet mutually acceptable draw would be my guess.Quote:

Second was 60k I think, possibly 40k for 3rd, not sure what for 4th, but I do recall a figure of 12.5k for the rest.
Champions again, Champions again, Champions again ole ole.
Think the prize money went up this season. Is it 200k now for winning league?Quote:
