Relegation 2008

[bellavistaman]

UCD gone now IMO, us or galway now i have to say, from the heart its now ours to throw away, the head says us or galway i honestly cannot seperate the two. I say blow the league up now!!! hehe

[The Rebel Ram]

Between Cobh and Galway now.......
Cobh have
Away to Bray Friday week
Home to Bohs
Away to Derry

9 points a certainty

Seriously though, if we play like we did for the past few weeks we should beat Bray.
It'll depend on what team and what commitment they have when we play Bohs how we get on.
Hopefully Derry will have nothing to play for when we meet them and will have beaten ye to be in the final so will have their focus on that.

so 9 points could actually be a possibility.

Galway will have Pats(away) on Monday who willl want to be making sure of their second spot.
Then it's Derry (away) still in with a shout for second and who will have beaten ye convincingly in the semi.
Home to Harps is next in a win or be relegated battle............
Finally away to UCD who might still be there looking for third from bottom, but pride mainly to play for.

All in all we have it wrapped up

fact ye're so confident is gonna make it all the sweeter when we finish ahead of ye.

[geezer]

reckon anyone of the four can stay up. Its very tight.

[pineapple stu]

We're gone. Have to beat Galway and either of St Pat's or Bohs (Bohs with half our defence suspended) to have any hope. Not going to happen.

[Terry]

I hope the Cobh players are as sure as their supporters !!!!

[jinxy lilywhite]

UCD to finish bottom but still stay up as the financial situation of the other 3 clubs will relegate them

I hope you're not a betting man Columbo.

[Louth4sam]

I thought Galway were ok now that they reduced their playing budget?

Galway and the FAI are very close. The FAI won't deduct anything from Galway.

Its between Cobh and Galway and Galway will stay up.

Pats will probably let Galway win tonight plus Pats only played 2 days ago.

Get those excuses in nice and early FunnPirk.

Ha ha but I am right though

What a load of bull.....
I'm sure if we are found to have broken the rules we will be dealt with accordingly. We realised we weren't going to reach our financial targets and acted responsibly to reduce our spending, unlike some other clubs.

My User name is very apt when I come to putting my money where my mouth is.

I could see two staying up at a massive stretch, but not three.

I don't believe the FAI will do anything of consequence to the clubs who are overspending. But as they say about pessimists, most of the time you're right, and the rest of the time, you're pleasantly surprised.

[JC_GUFC]

It's hard to see how Drogheda can get a licence for next season but leaving that alone I think there is very little between Galway and Cobh's fixtures apart from the fact that we're at home to Harps and they're at home to Bohs.

Our GD is quite a bit better so we'll finish ahead anyone if we finish level on points.

It obviously suits Harps to be written off and I definitely think they could win in Drogheda and if they needed to beat Rovers at home on the last day I'd have no doubt they would but playing like they did on Friday I can't see Galway not beating them in Terryland.

[Rovers1]

headin meself to the Pats/Galway game tonight, should be a a decent game. As much as i hate to say it i think/hope Galway will stay up.Cobh deserve it too although. But Galway are favourites i think, especially with the fact they have to play Harps still in Terryland.

[Finlay Harp]

Still think that Harps have as good a chance as the rest. Its been such an unpredictable league this year that anything can still happen.

If any of you have any money left get it on Galway to stay up and Harps to be relegated. You are buying money with the Harps bit and backing a dead cert with Galway.

Back to the first division for us Bad news for derry and the average attendances in the league

[GalwayFrancis]

great result for us tonight (one nil with vinny scoring his third in two - and we were with out wonder boy Jay O'Shea)

Our run in:
Derry Away
Harps Home
UCD Away

Cobh:
Bray Away
Sligo Home
Derry Away

Harps:
Drogheda Away
Galway Away
Shamrock Rovers Home

It will go down to the wire. I'm just glad that our goal difference is the best of the 3, good chance it will end up going down to that
