Well I'm gonna go for a home win here. TC was ****ed by his old collagues comments about Utd after the last meeting of the two sides. So I reckon he'll have the lads well fired up. We werent that far off them when we played them in Terryland earlier in the season. Its time for revenge! Come on United!:ball:
Mind you UCD have just taken the lead in United Park so they might be fired up themselves!
UCD have just taken the lead against them, it'll be a tough game but any result will do, I reckon 8 more points from the remaining games will see us safe...pity I'll be missing the game as I'll be in Slovakia :(:D
Typical, I backed the Draw HT/Drogs FT at 3.75...Quote:

my prediction is a draw.g.u have been great for draws this season in the bookies,another handy few quid made last friday night at 11/4 for the draw.
longford are making an unreal late bid for survival,u.c.d won tonight too so the pressure is still piling up despite our unbeaten run.
I will go for a win here too , I see Glynn scoring in the 80th minute and winning 1-0
ooohh yer can someone text Koemans the scores as I will be in the same coffee shop , sorry bar as him ........
College saved themselves last night IMO. There may well be a Drogheda back lash on Friday, following their two dismal Monday night performances.
Having used Grant as a sub for most of the season, Doolin started him against us and promptly withdrew him as the game progressed. Also, local support was forever on the backs of Keddy and Whelan.
So the good news is that all is not well in the Drogheda camp. The bad news is they're not so far ahead in the table without showing more ability and back bone than any of the other 11 teams. So the questions for us are:
Are we ready for it?
Are we 'up' for it?
I certainly hope so and will be giving the lads as much support as I can on the night. I expect to hear all of you heading for Bratislava & Prague shouting loudly enough to be heard in Terryland. :D
I tipped us to get 4 out of 6 in the Cork and Drogheda games and im not going to change now. Tony just needs to remind the players of Doolins comments about us after the Game in United Park.
Only change could see Murph heading to the bench although Daryl wasnt great against Cork he had a family bereavement the week before and was in England all week. Im raging im missing this one as I expect a cracker with Galway making Doolin eat his words and Droghedas Bubble to Burst.
it would be sweet to win this one - get them back for the 3-2 - god i was so sick that day leaving terryland - the buzz was great then
id say why not beat them - we have been riding our luck a bit away from home - the monkey is off the back - so why not put in a good performance and win at home

There's a whole other thread debating whether we deserved anything from it though....
Gavin Whelan is a very average player on their rightside. When he was taken off and Shane Robinson was put on the right it resulted in their first goal.
I'd be surprised if Robinson doesn't start on the right on Friday but I think we're high in confidence at the moment and could get at least a point.
Hope I'm wrong but I've a bad feeling about Friday night and think we'll suffer a Drogheda backlash.
Bottom line is we're not really that good - just an average side with limited options up front and pretty solid across the back.
Reckon Drogheda to win 2-0 - hope I'm wrong
