If we finish there its basically midtable and its higher than weve finished in past seasons so once we keep the spine of the squad together and the manager (who thought id be saying that) then we can only go up.Quote:

Derry are under pressure at the moment and Friday night will be a big test. If they come through it with anything other than a loss i think they will go on to win the league. If they lose then the pressure is on even more with Waterford the following week.
As it stands i think the league will finish like this....
1 Derry (Champions)
2 Limerick
3 Mons
4 Waterford
5 Shels
6 Cork
Can't call who would win the play off to be honest. Will be incredibly close. A lot closer than the playoffs in recent seasons i think. Shels will definately run the top teams close but i think time and the amount of games left to play may be against them. If they had picked up the recent results earlier in the season i think they would have been even more in the promotion mix up. The same goes for Cork.
ya one defeat in 14 games we really are strugglingQuote:

There you go!
Where exactly did i say Monaghan were struggling? I said ye were under pressure. Under pressure not to lose two in a row like Derry have. And then be under more pressure from the teams behind.Quote:

under pressure not to lose two in a row ? are you for real or just wishful thinking
.
P.s. it did not seem to effect us last night

Never thought i'd be so happy we're gonna be relegated! :pQuote:

In saying that the surface in Jackman Park has improved a lot since the previous games with those teams.Quote:

joe if you go up will you stil play out of jackman
Can't imagine the FAI permitting us to continue playing in Jackman in the Premier. Not nearly a high enough standard. Plus, no need to give the FAI an excuse to deny Limerick a Premier Licence next term :p
I think you get a one year derogation on ground stuff when you go up. Plus the plans at Market Field are probably enough to cover you.
There may be some minor works required though.
Cummins suspended for us Friday which is a big blow! Our POTY by a country mile. Others will need to step up if we want to get anything from the game
Just went to Derry's official site, and their chat site, looking for some views on tomorrow's game. The official site seems like it hasn't been updated for a week? And is the chat side private?
You need to register for Derry City Chat- takes about 2 seconds.Quote:

Our main site has a habit of not updating when we're going through a bad patch lol
As for the league fixtures,they are a sticky on the forum and that seems to be the most popular place although they should be on the main site.
I'm thinking it's a must not lose game but I'm not that confident we'll even get a point.
As with everything surrounding LOI clubs, when you ask people to volunteer there is a conspicuous lack of a rush to assist.Quote:

Basically most of them think we will be a very difficult prospect and aren't overly confident. A lot of Northern cute whoorism going on in other words. :pQuote:

There's also a curiously charming murdering of "You Look Wonderful Tonight" by someone called Dave for some reason. :D
(Relatively) Secure parking in the cash and carry across the road from the ground tomorrow night. ;)Quote:
