    • Challenge for top 3
    • Have another good run in both Cups
    • Sign another left back
    • Get revenge against Fingal
    Coleman for Ireland

    Our season, like the last one, is dependent on Peers being on the pitch for the Bit O'Red. With him I feel we could challenge for third/fourth. Without him, we'll leak goals.

    The squad sorted out in good time, a good pre season and a good start to the league, the club to maintain its healthy financial status and hopefully a trophy at the end of it all. It would be great to get some big side for a friendly in the summer too.

    Challenge the top 3, which will more than likely be Bohs, Shams and Fingal. Although it's going to be very difficult to see who'll be challenging (with us hopefully) for the 3rd spot. UCD could be decent, God knows what the story will be with Cork. Drogheda wil want to challenge again. Pat's, if they get a decent manager could be back to '08 form and Foster might have a bit of money at Dundalk. We need a good start and to be beating the teams 'below' us from the start. Hopefully we'll have a go at the Setanta Cup in the new year, prize money, trophy etc. And the loss in Tallaght can drive us on in the FAI Cup.

    Only 12 weeks to go!

    Maybe the club can sort something out with Real Madrid as part of the Danny Ventre deal.

    Delighted to hear we signed him up for the new season, if he can go through the whole of next season without an injury like he got this summer then we shouldn't leak as many goals this season.
    Coleman for Ireland
