Big match this weekend.
So after the Cork performance, what do you think the starting lineup will be? Will he change the team if doherty and foran are fit enough???
i think the only change could be kavangh out (suspended) and myler in and play 2 up front.
Oh and will Matt Gregg get a bad reception??????
Eddie has to go 4-4-2. Hopefully we'll have one of the CB's back and Daz can go to right-back where he's best.
4-5-1 at home, against one of the weakest sides in the league would be an insult to the fans.
He has to change it to 4-4-2, not sure who to drop or bring in after the solid performance against cork.
What will it be like on fri, will many turn out to watch it?
Does any know if the P.A music has changed from the crap last year, will he play different songs for every goal?????
the only change imo will be myler for the suspended kavanagh, i think both tresson and kenny did enough to keep their place, eddie seems to keep to the same team if they played well.Quote:

Just in relation to music lads... What type of stuff would you like to hear? give me a list of bands...
We have a few new CDs for this season (u2, sterophonics, oasis, doves, rolling stones, thin lizzy, the coral, the hives, keane, the kooks, foo fighters, scouting for girls, kanye west, lupe fiasco, the hoosiers, muse etc...) Is that the sort of stuff?
3 different new tunes as well for goal celebrations.
We have a good few songs for the teams entering the pitch, but is there any in particular that you think would be good?
All feedback is welcome.
Oh yeah, will have a brand new match day programme this season as well, full colour and better design so should be a big improvement.

looks like it'll be the same team with the exception of myler for kavanagh
good to hear about new music anto:)
well done roo69, at laest that will be a bit better this year then..
can the music be different when the teams are coming out, it was a bit ridiculous last year??
anyone up for a few drinks in the hibo before the match on friday?
It's actually quite hard picking an entrance song... got one for the 1st game so well see how it goes down and make a call form thereQuote:

and great to hear about the programme tbh i always thought it was embarassing!! good work club!!!
Ill be there in the pub with you
pure muck scholboy crap which isnt good enough
the amount of money put into a team who cant conjure up anything that will trouble a UCD goalie absolutly disgraceful play like that again and we can look forward to the first division
rant over :mad:
Optimism for the season right out the window. All they did was hoof the ball. Myler was a disgrace no wonder scully let him go. Very little desire shown from any of the players. Am I the only one who thought taking McCabe off to bring on Ivory to play right back and moving Pender to left wing was pure stupid? If we play that bad against rovers next week we'll be mauled
Dreadful game. Both sides were muck. We were just a lot muckier than they were. Didn't help that the ref was appalling either, booked far too many imo and was too whistle happy. If that was anyones first league of Ireland game they will never go again.
Damn my optomism.
Bray were disgraceful tonight. UCD were a lot better and deserved the points.
Eddie's got to make some changes or else we'll be destroyed by Rovers.
Aside, at least the ref booked the UCD lad who kicked the ball away.
Had been at one of my mates to come to a match for months, he finally agreed and then the lads play like that. Really hard to defend the quality of the football on show after that performance. Was so bad I nearly felt like I should apoligise for wasting his tenner on complete garbage. Can't see me managing to convince him to come againQuote:

Only positive - it's early days, hopefully there won't be another performance like that for the remainder of the season.
That's nonsense. I thought we played very well; passed it around, were very nicely balanced and created some good chances. Towards the end, we were in complete control. First half was even enough I though, except Bray's defence was all over the place and Paul Byrne had acres of space. Second half was all us. Overall, an enjoyable game (though I realise how you mightn't think that!) Very surprised how poor Bray were after last week's performance. Getting more and more optimistic about us. :)Quote:

Apologies on that one Stu. Probably a tad harsh, heat of the moment stuff. Still if I were you I wouldn't be getting too optimistic just yet. That was a dreadful game of football. A good team would have been much further out of sight. Bray kept pulling their midfielders back to the last third of the pitch ( I think we thought we were still away to Cork) which gave your lads as much time as they wanted in midfield. And aside from that with the exception of (and only at times) Pender none of the new lads showed anything for us out there. Rowe was dreadful, Myler marginally better and Whelan was a major disappointment. I'm glad you found that enjoyable all the same though.Quote:

This all sounds a bit grim. I'm back for the Rovers game next week, and will try to bring a bit of good luck with me!
I think we will need more than luck on our side if we are to survive in the premiership, based on fridays performance we need a total change of ideas, the midfield was totally missing for most of the game which made it very easy for UCD to advance into the last third of the pitch. Without wishing to pick on any players in particular i can only hope that Myler, Rowe, Crawley and Whelan improve as the season progresses as these are the kind of players we need to show a good example to the younger players.
cawley finally been found out was dreadful vs ucd .goes missin when the game is not goin our way just goes around shoutin at everybody else...Thats why so many teams let him go.myler terrible bad signin imo has no pace at all
Last season when we played well everything went through Cawley. He'd get the ball hold it for a sec and produce the pass. He couldn't do that on Friday cos Whelan was trying to do the same thing. Not sure if those two can play together to be honest. I guess time will tell.
Feck, will be home over Easter and was looking forward to the game against St Pat's. Please tell me it's not all doom and gloom.
where is franco?? lot of people dont think he's up to it but has he not been our top scorer in the last 2 seasons??? we were awful on friday UCD should have scored 4 if not more, myler was a good player but the legs are gone and to make 2 changes at half time was an act of panic by the manager and will do no good for the confidence of the players taken offQuote:

From the Bray People:
Speaking after the match, Gormley expressed his frustration about the performance.
'Obviously I'm very frustrated'
:D
does anyone know why he's not even in the squad?Quote:

Just like last season... :rolleyes:
I'm expecting to see Franco on Friday, then again I wouldn't be surprised if he was left out (yes I'm aware that's a contradiction).:(
