    Based on what i saw on tv last season & the Bohs & City pre season games Sunderland are going to notice the big step up required for the Premier League very soon.

    Motivating players in the Championship might be enough but if they cannot pass the ball will be shown up in the Premiership.

    My personal highlight was the exaggerated Rico, Rico chants at HT & FT on his way towards the tunnell, which he totally milked while Keane was just a few feet behind him, receiving little adulation.
    Very funny.
    City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

    Cheer the Dub, while boo the man who has the freedom of cork, and did so much (good & bad) to put cork on the map, a national hero to some. just stating the facts.

    But i also found the funny side of it!!

    Was that the day he snuck out the back door, some freedom he was exercising there alright. FFS
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    I always hear that Keane did great things for Cork football but no one ever gives specifics...

    Now that it looks like we can afford to sign promising or quality players, I expect a lot of these to leave this close-season.
    Expect a lot of familiar faces in St. Colmans Park next year I'd say.
    Wouldnt expect too many of yere rejects to come to Cobh..those days are long gone...Different set up in Cobh these times...Lots of emphasis put on developing the youngsters..and its working this season...look at the age of some of the players..18,19,20...no room for passengers any more...how ye left Kevin Murray go amazes me..Hes a class player,probably best centre half in div 1

    How many rejects (as you referred to them) in your current first team and/or squad?

    I can guarantee you will sign an ex-City senior or U21 player at the start of next season.

    murphy is fighting with colin o'brien, admier softic and kilian lordan for 4th choice center mid, though his injuries arent helping his case. devine has another year in him, he has to maintain his consistency. went through a bad patch but being dropped sorted him out.

    do you want me to count phil harrington?

    Only maybe Carey could have been considered a 1st team regular at City.

    Oh you didnt!
    henderson wouldnt call him city reject and not as if he ever played with us either,
    carey, class,
    gutsy on loan but class,
    Mucky fantastic think hed do way better job than horgan RB, and Lordan
    Murray we bought not as if ye dumped him, yell prob look for him back when other murray stops.
    Nolan we released
    McCarthy still with us yet to score league goal, fair enough.
    Daly only 21s player hasnt played for Seniors yet
    Caufield has left and didnt play with the senior team.

    we have Mike O'Shea, John Meade, Barrett, Cambridge,Deasy,Deady, Hennessy all played with 17s and youths. Mike, John,Barret,Davin all played schoolboys in Cobh.

    Correct me if im wrong dont think we have one ex rockmount do we?1 Wanderers.All EL standard. Ye even want Davin our only player who we signed from Wanderers he was only there because his job. Dunno what your problem is so what like, we will always look for players off ye that will improve our squad.

    The MFA must have made out like bandits on this.

    Reading today that tv rights between TG4 & Setanta would have been 45k. I heard it was 5 euro for the programme & were tickets 25 euro?

    Even allowing for the costs must have easily pulled in 150k+

    Not seen the new turnstiles but they would want to be very nice for 150k.
