    ok for teh ultra pedantic
    I mean a cvlub which will have a top 4 budget
    bohs will have that budget
    they've had it WITHOUT the land deal
    its likely to increase


    dolan had it at pats
    fenlon at shels
    rico at cork

    I'd be wary of OConors Bohs to be honest - theres no better manager than money and a guy who can talk things up

    Fair point.

    I agree with you though that Drogs are looking good for this season. Doolin's had 2 years to bed-down, they've got the money, his squad is decent, and they've had that taste of silverware for the last 2 seasons on-the-trot to drive them on.

    If they start 2007 the way they finished 2006, they'll be more than a match for anyone.Though I don't think they'll retain the Setanta this year.

    Some things can be accurately conveyed in very few words.

    The above being a classic example...

    I don't think anyone at Bohs is predicting a league win this season. We have a long way to travel from last year's fiasco. But Connor is quietly busy building the team, and Heary is, apparently, already in the bag.
    Here's a speculative lineout lifted from thebohs.com:
    Murphy
    Heary Burns Maher Powell
    Joxer Hunt Turner/Heary Singh/Ward
    Fenn Crowe

    Subs
    Rossiter
    Ferguson
    Harkin
    Mansaram
    Turner/Heary

    That doesn't include Conor Downey, who apparently will be bid for this week, though that might depend on whether Wardie goes to Wolves or Birmingham.

    It might take time to gel, but that squad hardly will be automatically second best to Drogheda.

    I don't think I'd be flying in the face of reason in saying that third place is a reasonable aspiration for us in the coming season.

    All of this has happened before. All of it will happen again.

    What happened to Steven Rice? He had a poor enough season last year but was player of the year season before. With new full backs coming in he'll be free to play in his preferred centre midfield position.

    Did well with Home Farm in fairness, he was practically the whole team there!
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    Are you getting the penalty areas specially reinforced to accomodate that striking pair, or considering moving Burdocks even closer to the pitch for in-game snacking?

    I somehow don't think you'll be playing balls in behind the back four for them to run onto....

    Ricer's still there -- that is just a speculative line-up. IMO he's better than he's given credit for.

    I gave up defending players there long ago (I think it was after I made a few arguments in favour of Robbie Doyle )

    Eh...that'd be in addition to their standard income from gate receipts, sponsorship and all the other stuff a club tides over with.

    They're basically getting an extra E1.2m (assuming that's the correct figure) over and above what was already one of the bigger budgets in the league in the first place.
