City official siteQuote:
Suspensions: Billy Woods, Roy O’Donovan.
Injury News: Colm Carroll (Cruciate Ligament- OUT); Brian O’Callaghan (Groin- OUT), Darren Murphy (Concussion), Darragh Ryan (Abdominal Muscle),
I think Healy will start but maybe Farrelly on the bench. I think will be looking at team such as:
Devine
Horgan Kelly Murray Lordan
Healy Gamble O'Brien/Softic/Farrelly Kearney
O'Flynn Behan
McNulty, Lally, 2 from O'Brien/Softic/Farrelly, McSweeney.
Should be good hopefully we wont see Farrelly as i just wanna forget all about him.
Good luck.
Preview: Bohemians v Cork City
Bohemians host Cork City in the tie of the League of Ireland Cup quarter-finals and the game has added significance with two Cork City players set to make their debuts, one of whom has a history with Bohemians.
Bohemians vs Cork City
(Dalymount Park - 7:45 pm - League Cup - Quarter Final)
Referee : Damien Hancock
Following the long running debacle over their registrations and eligibility, Colin Healy and Gareth Farrelly are now in line to play competitively for Cork City. Farrelly has of course managed Bohemians in the past. The former Aston Villa, Everton, Bolton and Irish midfielder was in charge at Bohs for approximately two years - ending in late August 2006. Healy though could be the star of the show if he can put injury woes behind him. Like Farrelly, he has played at a high level in England and his thirteen international caps are seven more than Farrelly.

What do ye reckon to this one people? Farrelly back in Dalymount, Healy running out in City colours for what is the first real game, Billy Woods and Roy O'Donovan suspended, Leon MacSweeney just signed and will start in his first competitive game for us, Darragh Ryan will possibly start for us.
Could be a good game of ball.
Dont think Darragh will play any part and would be surprised if Leon started but might come on.
How seriously are Cork taking this one with the InterToto campaign on right around it?
Noone else seems to think we'll play anything but our best team but I suspect a few may be rested for saturday.
I'd expect Healy, Farrelly and McSweeney to start and probably the three of them to be taken off on the hour.
Risteards decent but 'give some of the lads a rest' line-up.
----------------------McNulty----------------------
Lordan--------Murphy-------Murray----------Horgan---
Lordan----------Healy----Farrelly--------Kearney/Leon
---------------Leon/Behan-----JOF------------------
A (7?) bench of Devine, Brendan Daly, Kelly, Gamble, Colin, Kearney/Behan, softic.
Only five on the bench.
You can bump one up to replace Lordan, who looks to have his work cut out at right back and right wing.
very surprised this game isnt on tv
I'll give you a hint.
It's the League Cup.
Right Back = Cillian LordanQuote:

You should have put C Lordan then to explain. :p
4-3-3
McNulty
Horgan, Kelly, Dan, Lordan
Gamble, Farrelly, Healy
McSweeney,Behan, O'Flynn
Starting 11.
3 Debuts and Behan, Lordan and Nults getting games too.
2-1 to Bohs at the moment
Grrrr! Thought the league outlawed this rubbish when they split up the Colin O'Briens!Quote:

:cool:
another 3 goals conceded just reinforces my belief that we will have to sign another keeper. once mick stands down or the knees start to go (hes what, 34?) i dont think nults is good enough to replace him.
that being said, i didnt see the match. perhaps there was nothing he could do for them - but how often has mick made saves when it seemed there was nothing he could do?
Not much McNulty could do with the first two goals but definitely contributed to the winning goal.
I am beginning to think Devine may have looked better than the was in recent years because he played behind a solid unchanged defence. There may be too many forced changes to Kelly & Ryans positions this season...
Our inability to defend set pieces (free header for goal one) is costing us badly & we won't go far in Europe if we cannot fix it quickly.
A lot of optimism in the City support tonight even after losing to last minute goal. :cool:
Thought Healy was anonymous tonight and gf did his usual, I'm not moving from the centre circle routine!Quote:

What's the story with Citys second goal?
It doesn't look like an og to me but noone seems to claim it.
A lot of us thought it was Behan first.Quote:

Got 8 of the experimental 11 right.
How'd Leon McSweeney do?
Did the three lads come off?
shocking defending from us for the bohs goals tbh.Quote:

I don't think Rice has ever been allowed go forward for a set piece before, Cork were probably so stunned they never bothered giving him a marker. In fairness I think his header for the OG was the better of the 2 though. :)
Ya, as good as Kelly and Ryan have been, the old telepathy isn't going yet.Quote:

2 people got on the pitch, the first 2 supporters on the pitch at Dalyer this season!Quote:

what a simply astonishing coincidence! in a 2 second clip, featuring about 10 yards of grass, in your 18th/19th game of the season, your first pitch invaders of the season get on, and are seen by me, who has a bit of a problem with dubs and pitch invasions. it must be my lucky day.Quote:

We used the orange mesh years ago and no one even bothers trying to get on the pitch at the end of the game or at HT, only unless your this lot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAB1eI4VvXk or a Cork City fan!
That's the way your coming across!Quote:
