Shock horror as football team buys players!
difference to what? sorry but that makes no sense.
whether we "do a Shels" or not remains to be seen but i, for one, am going to enjoy this amazing display of utter dominance while it lasts.
good to see that jealousy remains alive and kicking.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
jealousy wouldnt say that stu, just waiting for it to go tits up for yous, then you can thank Fenlon for putting yous in the mess. 1 cup/league in 7 years is a good record to talk aboutdifference to what? sorry but that makes no sense.

20 wins out of 25 is hard to argue with....some record in fairness.
Fenlons still a c**t though
Would have to agree, plus the defensive record is something else & big Ken not even figuring for most of it.
if it goes tits up at Bohemians then i dont think Fenlon will have been the man to blame. He has stayed within his budget and released a rake of players this year in order to bring in a few. Fact is he is achieving this dominance with mostly Connors purchases. Byrne is the only player he personally has brought in on a huge wage. Most of the other big contracts were negotiated by Connor.
Say what you like but i dont feel that Fenlon is the man to blame.

FFS, whatever the ins oand outs of our finances, Fenlon didn't put us in to it. Our wage bill this year will probably be lower than under Connor. With nearly the same group of players, he's turned Connor's team into champions - Oman, Brennan, Byrne and Cronin were the only new players at the start of the year, and Byrne has been peripheral. Fitness and focus has been the difference. I would hazard a guess that we have the 3rd highest wage bill in the league (4th until 2 weeks ago); if money could buy it, then Pat's would be walking it, and Drogheda would be second, with us a distant 3rd like last year.

Not disputing that yous are the best team in the league, yous are by a long way this year but there is a salary cap issue, but is this being adhered to. Yous have released a couple a players but hes brought in bigger players on higher wages

simply not true - he has brought in talented players (McGill, Kalonas, Deegan) on short contracts at a reasonable wage. And established league players on slightly longer contracts at "the going rate" (Cronin, Byrne, Oman).

as i recall shels didnt pay ther players last time they won the league
Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.
What was O.Brien sent off for?Seems kinda early so was probaly a straight red yes?What for?
Two- footed lunge at Anto Murphy - to be fair, anyone else but the drama queen would probably have settled for a yellow - wasn't like he was in on goal or anything.

From where I was standing it seemed like a harsh decision. However I spoke with two journo's after the match who were watching from the half way line and both said he deserved to go.
Aside from that, a complete performance andgod knows how I'll turn up for work tomorrow!

McChrystals horror tackle on Behan was well worthy of a straight red, absolutely appaling, Denis had a number of stitches to his leg and is doubtful for Saturday

Would I be too cruel in suggesting that Bohs have won a poor league this year? I mean us Drogs fans had to put up with that bullsh*t last season, and considering that most of the clubs are having major problems this season, could one argue that there wasn't much competition?
I think so.
Forzadrogs.....A blog by a Drog with an opinion!
You are unfair to the League. perhaps the best way is seeing what the Pre-season predictions were. These included Drogheda Utd. being the team to beat and unlikely anyone would catch them.
This is a year when more clubs than ever are training full-time. St. Pat's and Bohs are on their second crack at the long-term full-time thing. And while many clubs cannot make the transition in one movement and need more then one attempt, the quality of individual players and clubs' run of results are spread over several clubs.
Every club have attempted to take something from a Bohs game, very few have succeeded.

it can't possibly hurt.
All they will find is my
beer and my shirt."
Boo hoo.

It's quite likely that Pat's and Derry will finish on higher points totals than you won the thing with last year, so no.....
