Murphy and Gamble

I have to say even though I'm a Ramblers fan I'm gutted for Cork City, once again they come down heavy on a smaller club, I wonder if this had happened to one of the big European club sides like Barca, Bayern or whoever what would the punishment have been, f*** all if any.
UEFA have a history of coming down heavy on the smaller clubs yet conveniently ignore the indiscretions of bigger clubs. The whole thing stinks.
Bunch of corrupt blazer types.

Rico said last night on TV3 that Woods would start at left full back, O'Brien & O'Donovan either side of midfield with McCarthy, Lordan and Softic going for the 2 centre spots.

Any word on O'Flynn? How did he get through last night's training I wonder?

im starting to think cork can get something from this....before they get hammered out of sight back in red star city

That Danny Murphy seems like a total *******. don't know how many times he's been sent off now, but its quite a few. What is it about the " Oi, I'm from Laaandan mate" hard man swagger he always seems to portray. Idiot.

Pity, cos he's a decent enough player, but my God, what an ******* !!

I think O'Flynn may start which would be a huge boost as he offers makes some great runs & extra pace will be valuable.

Red Star have beaten yesterday, in most serious friendly so far, posiible oponent in third round of qualifications - Czech champion Slovan Liberec 3-0. Zigic scored twice, and Milovanovic once.
Bajevic is trying new things in formation and rotation of players...Basta was in midfield, Pantic replaced him at right back, Tutoric and Joksimovic were cetral defenders(LOL), and Perovic was left back....New Brazilian Tadeu was left wing, Bulgarian Georgijev right wing, Jankovic wasn't in first 11...

Zigic is tall - jan koller type - was at the world cup, probably not a bad shout for first scorer. Plenty of Premiership scouts will be in cork with a view to signing him. Liberec dispatched rovers easily enough in the toto a few years ago so beating them 3-0 in a friendly is a decent sign

I watched what happened. Danny Murphy was ran at by their whole bench....the ref was in no position to see anything and neither was the linesman. If you listen to the interviews with Gamble in particular you would believe it too. He was furious and saying all he did was try to break it up. I believe him cos iv seen him do it before.

Flynny should(but its flynny) be playing tonight. Colin will play in the middle, there wouldnt be any experience there otherwise.

The team will either be:
Devine
Horgan Dan Bennett Billy
Roy Colin Adi/Lordan McCarthy
Fenn Flynny

or Devine
Horgan Dan Bennett Billy
Roy Colin Fenn Adi
Behan Flynny

Zigic is 6'8 and apparently the tallest pro footballer. Arsenal and Spurs(?) said to be watching him but he will stay with Red Star til after the qualifiers
