Aidan Lynch has been teaching them their alphabet, I'd say.

**holidaysong** · 07/10/2010, 3:44 PM

And Philly has been teaching them how to bet.

whoever their maths teacher is deserves an award 4 is bigger than 2

**SwanVsDalton** · 07/10/2010, 6:58 PM

That's nothing, up in the Brandy the players only recently realised two contracts is bigger than one.

Paddy Powers bet:

Derry City 1/1
Mons 6/5
Shelbourne 9/1
Waterford 12/1

Did i read in previous posts that a Derry books paid out earlier in the season on City winning the leauge

Yup McBride's Bookies - everybody's a winner! Except for the bookies and the club of course.

Limerick 1-0 Wexford.

The goal came in the last minute and the relief on the Limerick players was unbelievable. It seemed to give the whole team a boost to finish the game on a high. Closing the gap on Shels to two points keeps the pressure on them going into the weekend. We are still clutching at straws but haven't given up yet.

Looks like it's Salthill v. Cobh in the play-off, would much prefer a trip to Cobh...

Mervue and salthill should just join together to play cobh. If cobh win, both galway teams are gone.

Yeah, they could do that and maybe Carlow and Tralee could play-off to take the 12th spot! :-D

Waterford are back into 3rd spot after a comfortable 3-1 win over Finn Harps last night. 3rd place is in our hands now with next 2 games Longford away and Athlone home before the big one away to Shels in last game.

**GalwayRed** · 10/10/2010, 2:52 PM

After last night I hope Derry win the league. They looked far far better than any team we have played this season and if we manage a playoff I would prefer to play Monaghan than Derry. It's pretty clear whats required now. Win 3 games and we get 3rd place. I would expect us to get through the Mervue game alright but going down to Limerick will be very tough.
Hopefully Derrys confidence is up now and they carry last nights form through the last 3 games. If they keep playing like they did last night, they'll win the league.

Good call! Salthill Devon Mervue FC. It's even less catchy than Cork City FORAS Co-op!

**legendz** · 11/10/2010, 1:41 PM

Monaghan should win their game tonight to keep the pressure on Derry.

**holidaysong** · 11/10/2010, 2:05 PM

You'd expect both teams to win the games between now and that final showdown in Gortakeegan. Assuming that happens then Derry will be going into that game only needing a draw. However, I think home advantage will be massive for Monaghan in that match and if they can get to that match needing a win to take the title, then I can see them pulling it off.

Please don't remind us of Cork in 2005

That's where I got the scarf
