    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.

    Not sure how many were brought last weekend but for someone who has done what Noelle has done for the club i would definitely have sacrificed a player who was never going to feature for Noelle to travel.
    I was talking to a relation of Bryan McCarthy (under 21s) who was telling me that the "reserves" were defending set pieces etc in Malmo's style while the first 11 tried ways to break them down and so on. I think it's called planning or training or something like that. If you think that is a waste of funds compared to paying the travel of some cranky troublemaker who should have been kicked out of the club years ago, then you're an idiot. I'm sure if we need someone to throw holy water at players and rub people up the wrong way for future away trips we can find them IN Sweden/Holland/France/Where-ever.
    On a related matter, did anyone see if she was allowed keep the bottle top on her holy water or did that knob Peter Cottor take it off her?

    and repeating my response to that, John O'Flynn got injured after travelling, therefore you'd have had 21, which isn't enough, as Dolan said, he wanted two full teams and cover for injuries

    Isn't Dolans backroom staff big enough that one of them could have filled in ?Cover for injuries is fair enough but I still think 26 players is excessive, theres Premiership teams playing in the Champions League that don't take that many players away with them.
    Its all very well having the professional attitude, I just hope we're not overcommiting financially.

    Results to date have vindicated Dolan. IF we get thru sunday nobody will be complaining as club will still do well financially. Maybe bringing large squad makes all players fell they part of the success...
