So their signings of Robinsion, Bradley Cahill Cameron and Twigg would have nothing to do with their current improvement??Granted the last 2 would have directly come with the scottish experience of the manager the other 3 are all signings we could only dream about due to sadly our geographical position. Im not sure how thats looking through 'rose-tinted glasses and we wouldnt be able to afford them anyway. I think another reason for our struggles is that the break-up of Droghedas squad from last year has strenghtened considerably the squads of Bohs, Shams, Cork and to a lesser extent Pats while we have remained stagnant.
Lookin to fridays match i agree with akearins and think the deployment of morrison behind raf could finally have us see the best of him. Playing boco on either wing would also help the defensive side of things because his obvious greater work-rate would help our full-backs. I still think Parkhouse deserves to have a chance to show us if hes any good because he is completely different to any of our current attacking options.I think we might sneak a 1-0 win but a draw would be a decent result.

Well, we signed Keane, Holmes, Ryan, Morrison and Parkhouse.

I think it's a fair point that the best players want to remain in Dublin. Unless the provincial teams can offer huge cash it's hard to tempt them away. This has always been a feature of the league.
I don't think that Robinson could be compared to Holmes or Parkhouse in terms of quality.

Works grand on mine but I used a different computer one time last week and got an error message. It must have something to do with why the admin part of the site has been crashing, no idea why it is only on some browsers though. Will be noted.
