Relax Peader. Squad numbers aren't necessary for that. Gamble would probably be No. 6 every time he started if there were no squad numbers. Traditionally numbers have been equated with a certain position and if a player claims that position for themselves then they claim that number as their own for the main part.Quote:

i'd go for Bohs (No bias here I swear)
Shels
Cork
Nothing stopping them with the 1-11 system.Quote:

Remeber we cant touch our ground to improve it:rolleyes:Quote:

I didn't see much in it but they only showed it the once. Looked maybe more of a bookable offence but was studying at the same time so wasn't watching very closely.Quote:

Okay missed that :oQuote:

well if it wasnt malicious or anything as you said then he shouldn't have been booked?

Why are we used as an example in every negative thing? Get off our case people and wake up and realise that some clubs value the long term advantage of owning their own ground and developing it slowly without running into major debt or relying on local government to supply us with everything.
Since when does something have to be malicious to be a yellow?? I thought he came in late. As I said wasn't taking the most notice but while watching it thought it was a straight red and harsh because of thatQuote:

Why did Trevor Welch say "early doors"?
The longford coverage was interesting. Seems the colourless boez fans were allowed anywhere in the ground. Also when they scored they started chanting "Easy, easy":D
The best coverage of grounds are in dalier, tolka, belfield, flancare, richmond and drogheda simply because they face the main stand.
And we dont rely on local government to supply us "with everything":rolleyes: And I'm sure gortakeegan hasnt got a cent in grants over the years either.......
KOH
fair enough....they dont supply you with everything and we did get some grants but the point I was making is that everytime there is something negative to be said about football in Ireland, Monaghan United are held up as the bad example when almost everything we have achieved so far has been through slow and steady progress by some very dedicated people who are not expecting miracles but proudly own every blade of grass at CHP and have very little debts. Not many clubs can say that. Yet we are the whipping boys.Quote:
