Longford v City - Sat 3rd July
City should have all of the recent signings available. How do you think it will go?
draw i'd say, would be happy enough as long as we don't loose
I think this has the makings of a no score draw.. Question is can ye beat Aaron Shanahan in goals?
We'll win this, I'm confident.
no say we will loose please!!Quote:

its more the wording of how you said it than anything, saying we wont loose for sure is wrong, how can anybody know that, just say you don't see us loosing in future :)

No worries Kieran, its all irrelevant anyway ... City are gonna win this one ;)Quote:

We have a good home record against 'the team formerly known as cork city fc' so who knows on the day, we have stopped conceding loads of goals recently so hopefully another positive result this weekend
Na, if they play 4-5-1 Football Club should get something out of it.Quote:

Was talking to a Cork fan a few days back hes coming down and says Foras should have around 30 on there bus while the bus hes organising has around 16 on it so far so there should be a decent showing from the away fans.Quote:

Overall we're improving nicely and there's plenty to be optimistic about for the rest of the season.

Performers of the night : Lee , Victor , Jason oladalea qho made a fantastic impact as did hynes. JP Mcdonagh was a welcome return and tried hard as did Mark Salmon as always...
5 in a row undeafeated now and one things for sure we defo won't lose against mervue :)
Good man Kieran. A Mervue team who we struggled to beat earlier, ran Derry close Fri night and are tough to beat at home.
Mervue 3-1 Longford
I think we're well capable of getting a win down there but as you say it'll be fairly tough. I think we're an improving team though and the defence is looking more secure thankfully.
i demand 5 wins in a row next or cousins should be sacked :D
Yes they will be a tough nut to crack and they are likely to get physical to try and stop us playing but im sure Lester will be back next week and he will make the world of differnce so perhaps 2 maybe 3-1 LongfordQuote:

yes but the first part of your statement is true
I am not sure what to make of don cowans debut for us.. his only asset is pace imo.. Great to see Jason Oladele back with us again and delighted that JP McDonagh sorted out his work situation .
Hynes did make a difference when he came on and beat McNulty to the ball and slotted it past him..Cork had it in the bag and didnt win!
I though Cowan worked quite hard for us and hopefully he has more in his locker than just pace which I think he has. He was perhaps lucky not to have been sent off for two yellow card offences but the challenge he received a card for showed he has great determination and really wants to do well for us and I can see him scoring many goals.Quote:

His control and skill was brilliant last night and he made a huge impact and looks like a huge asset for us.
JP Mcdonagh worked hard and its great to see him back in the red and black.
Hynes defo. made a big diffrence also and will give Cousins a dilemma on who to start up top next week?
Roche had a quiet game before been taken off so hes probably out of the running to start up top ......... who would ye pick?
play hynes and cowan and see how they go together, then 2nd half give the other two a go
Off topic, but where did Brian McCarthy end up after going back to Bohs last year, is he still at Bohs? Thought I read somewhere too that he went to Spain for a trial with someone..
He went for a trial with Athletico Madrid after they liked what they saw in the friendly against him but they released he was 28 or what ever age he is not 18 as they thought so they let him go back and hes now playing for Athlone (scumbag)Quote:

Thats why I said or what ever age he is... I wasnt sure but yea thats why they didnt want himQuote:

don cowan and jason oladele were confirmed to me last night at the clubs tea party in Arvagh as permanent!
Interesting. I wonder if they're available for the cup game?.
fingers crossed.Quote:
