They've played 37 games this year, won one (36/1) and not lost four (~8/1). I don't think the odds are too far off.

Perhaps he has forgotten* Oriel, the away end of United Park, freezing Bray, 'quiet' UCD, Dalymount etc.

*I will leave the obvious jibe to the Shels fans...

a team with more than 350 fans after 2 incredibly competitive seasons?

Any dodgy betting patterns we should be aware of? Nothing at stake for anyone tonight, could be some "connected persons" looking to make some cash for the off season!

A mate of mine was drinking with the Rover squad in Coppers on Tuesday, Gary Mccabe told him to lump on Galway becuase they will be on the **** for the next few days

40/1 its worth a few Euro

We've been in the Shed this season.

It only changes the view.

**adamd164** · 28/10/2011, 4:59 PM

I like Drogs as an away ground too. Covered terraces are few and far between, usually a decent atmosphere when we play there.

Just because you're on the verge of returning to the Premier doesn't give ye the god given right to look down on teams again. Statements like that are cringe worthy

He gained that right in the day he was born by virtue of being born in Cork.

Some of it is over the top, they seem to be blaming us for the FAI's decision to have such a strange structure.

And when are they going to realise that the 3 clubs in Galway are not going to amalgamate
