stay up! then we could rebuild our squad and win the league!
I understand the financial implications of going down and the fact that every team wants to play in the top division, and maybe it's just the romantic in me but to win a major trophy is surely a great honour and something that will go down in the club's history. You've won the FAI cup once, back 27 years ago, you're now 2 games from what would be a famous vistory. The glow from winning a cup would help you through next season.
(Obviously, I hope you don't win it.)
Bray got a point tonight against Rovers. 2-0 down with 25 mins to go and we pulled them back. It should pick the lads up now and hopefully we can start picking up points again.

Staying up is much more important to me. The Cup would be a bonus really.I understand the financial implications of going down and the fact that every team wants to play in the top division, and maybe it's just the romantic in me but to win a major trophy is surely a great honour and something that will go down in the club's history.

Might toddle along to that myself.UCD vs Galway on the last day
The ball is round and has many surprises.
17 years ago, Jesus! I was feeling old for a minute there! 17 years is long enough though.
I'd still take Premier division football above an FAI Cup win. We've had enough of the joke that is the 1st division in our recent history to last a lifetime.

I'm with KBurke on this, win the Cup, go down and come up 'properly'. I thinlk whatever we may achieve in the futre in the Premier Division will be sullied by some because of the manner in which we found ourselves. We have one major trophy to our credit out of 31 years in the league. I'd like to see us double that, go down and rebuilt the club aorund local players like Alan Keane, Seamus Conneely, Jonathan Keane, John Russell and, hopefully, a striker who (A) looks like he gives a sh*t; and (B) can score!

Sorry, slip of the finger.
Galway guys you don't want to win the cup and seriously get relegated.
Any investment ye guys get will be cut in half. Any half decent players ye have will leave. Also the first will increase to 12 teams chasing one automatic promotion spot and 3 play off (lottery places). If your in the first then you have 2 of Cobh, UCD, Harps and then 3 of Fingal, Shels, Waterford or Dundalk with a rejuvenated Limerick to contend with. The first will be a fcuker to get of next season and you'd seriously want to stay away from it next season.
Whereas if you survive then really you only need to battle the 1st Divison Winners (Dundalk), Sligo & Bray. That looks an easier prospect than winning the first next season. Its easier to stay in the premier than to win the first

To hell with the cup.....
stay up,
restructure wages, costs, ticket prices etc.
Build team around local lads
sign 1 - 2 players
innit though??
It could be a fight for bottom two places as well, if Cork City dont get a licence or what ever way it pans out? But if i were one of the clubs in the drop zone i wouldn't like to count on that though, better to be safe and not in the bottom three.
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.
Stay up definitely. As Jinx Lillywhite says it'll be c*nt to get out of the 1st next season. We spent a long time down there and it would be a disaster if we spent another few years in the quagmire.

I reckon both Harps and Galway will stay up with UCD and Cobh joining Bohs in the 1st division.
I think Harps will only need one more win and Galway are well capable of getting 7 points which will be enough.
So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html
I think it will be Cobh and Galway to stay up. I think Harps will get the 10 point deduction and Cork will also get further points deductions/relagation.
Not the way I would want to stay up but at this stage I would take any way!

Bring on the City derbies!!!
Are you on the wind up here or what? Harps have had to cut wages for the last 6-7 weeks of the season having paid in full up to that point, fair enough, but Cobh cut back wages far, far sooner and have consistently failed to pay on time throughout the season. So why would we get a deduction and not you guys?
If anyone should benefit from deductions for financial issues it should be UCD, not Cobh or Galway.

Trust me lads you'd want to stay up!
We went down with the cup in 2002 and still haven't gotten back. We thought we'd bounce straight back up.
indeed.
try telling that to a few of the glory hunting idiots that support our club that have never heard of a thing called foresight!!!
roddy collins you're a flanker you're a flanker!
This si changing by the minute. With the Drogs news now and the fact it seems unlikely them or us will get a license next year it could be a case of just finish above the bottom....
