Likewise I think Dublin City would be better for the league than Pats. They're a new, progressive club with a positive attitude and they're not based in the south inner city.
This season Pats played above themselves when the visited Cork because the felt they had something to prove against their old manager. It will be hard for you to motivate yourselves in the same way again next season. The glory days are gone for the Inchicore boys. When Rovers move to Tallaght there will be clear divide in Dublin football.
The crap clubs of UCD, Rovers and Pats south of the river and the powerhouses of Dublin City, Shelbourne and Bohs north or it.
You're probably getting really depressed now reading this wws. It's doom and gloom at the stadium of light and you're beginning to realise it.

"They're a new, progressive club with a positive attitude and they're not based in the south inner city."

What makes you think they'll be based on the northside next season? They're on the move and options are thin on the ground.

"This season Pats played above themselves when the visited Cork because the felt they had something to prove against their old manager."

In fairness we got a win and a draw without ever really playing well.

"It will be hard for you to motivate yourselves in the same way again next season. The glory days are gone for the Inchicore boys. When Rovers move to Tallaght there will be clear divide in Dublin football."

thats ok so, as shamrock won't be going to Tallaght any time soon.

"The crap clubs of UCD, Rovers and Pats south of the river and the powerhouses of Dublin City, Shelbourne and Bohs north or it."

actually 2/3's of the domestic silver this year was dominated by Pats and Longford, we carved it up between ourselves. The gap between us and the win f all clubs like bohs and cork is widening.

"You're probably getting really depressed now reading this wws."

no, I think its a bit of a laugh actually.

You never play well, that's your problem.
That's as good as it gets for you.
You're always saying crap like, "we won without playing well", "we had our youth team out" or "we had our reserves."
That doesn't win you the league it's just the smokescreen by Pats fans to mask the glaring fact that you're rubbish.
You bored us into submission at Turners Cross this season.

The League Cup is a glammed up tin of beans!
It's only worth a few quid and doesn't even get you into Europe.
I wouldn't talk about your success this season if that's all you have to crow about. Longford "carved" you up in the FAI Cup Final and showed you up for the poor side you are.
Bring on Dublin City FC.

Well at least you can see that there is a serious gap developing and that Pats are being left behind. And not just by City, Bohs and Shels. Longford are now a bigger club than ye. Yerself and the homeless can fight over who's the best of the "former greats".

As Coach Don said, Micky Mouse Cups are for Micky Mouse Clubs.

Oh yes you and longford "carved" it up between you. As if the two of you are dominating forces in the LOI.

It's funny we got a win and a draw at richmond park in the league this year without really playing (and without John O' Flynn).

So why were you (plural) so upset when our Kids knocked you out.

Pats are nowhere near good enough to sustain a league challenge. Neither are Cork nor Longford.

Last season we needed a late winner against you to save ourselves from the play off. This year we'll place 3rd/4th/5th. We reached the Cup final and won the 3rd competition. Our style of football, although not perfect, has improved dramatically. Our crowds are up hugely. They've faded since the cup win but we're still up from last season. Now, by any standerds, that is a MASSIVE improvement.

Cork haven't really progressed this year

I think the general feeling in Cork would be that our progress this year has been more like a wound up coil ready to spring into action next season and challenge for the league. We now see great potential in our squad. Finishing 3rd in the league this season would be satisfactory since, like yourselves, we had a new management team. We're only a Kevin Hunt and an Owen Heary off having a great team.

There we are now lads,

Just remember the words of that great man Albert Einstein

This thread started out as a simple thank you by a Limerick fan to Cork City fans.

Apparently not even that can go without an objection or comment by a Pats fan these days.

If we all agreed that Pats are The Most Massive Club Of All Time With The Bestest Manager, would that finish it?

bout fckn time!

fair play to conor for cutting through the hype and calling it as it is

But were not, as described above (and countless times over by me)

Pats are not a big club. We never have been and we never will. We're the best club but thats based on my opinion not facts.

BTW Peader if I was a Cork fan I�d be happy enough with this season. And I agree that you�re not far off a good side.

**S�C** · 19/11/2003, 12:02 PM

I wonder is the fairy tale about the emperor having no clothes ever read up at Pats.

**NorthoftheLee** · 19/11/2003, 12:30 PM

And why the fuc has dubya dubya s got a linfield avatar as he is now clearly a Limerick fan????????

As conor stated this thread was started by a Lims fans thanking the City fans for giving their support....had to be hijacked into an arguement again....

**Gary** · 19/11/2003, 12:46 PM

Obsessed.

Isnt it funny how a once proud team (dating back all of 3 months), who were playing such brilliant football, and had such a great spirit, from the "chairman, right down to the tea lady", are now being described by their own as clueless.

The same way as class always shines through, so does mediocrity, and SPA are a prime example of that this season.

what the hell is wrong with a Linfield avatar??
its possible to have a few teams other than your first team that you look out for. Linfield are a dacent club, by far the most ambitious in the north of ireland.

In fairness wws regularly goes up and watches Linfield play

**Colm** · 19/11/2003, 4:57 PM

Excuse me now, I just have a couple of questions...
Why did Pats fans get involved in this discussion?
Why are Pats fans so obsessed with CCFC and Pat Dolan?

Lads, ye have got to realise that Pats are a now a nothing club and will never again amount to anything. We, on the other hand, are the biggest club in Ireland and over the next few years we will begin our long term dominance of Irish football.
When we'll be playing Champoins league football, Pats will be a mediocre first division club!

gotta take you up on this one dodge. maybe you meant we haven't really progressed on the pitch this year, for which there may be an argument, but as a club we have definitely progressed and will continue to over the close season, into next year and as long as lennox is in charge, imo. there's been a lot of work done of the pitch which a lot of people, even in cork, probably don't realise
