I hope Shels go through as well because they are an Irish club, simple as that but also the bigger pile up of games they get the better chance City have of closing the gap to the top.

Since their European games are all mid-week it's unlikely that they'll have a fixture backlog. Certainly nothing near the one City are facing.Originally Posted by ThaddyQuill

Yeah, but were you behind the goal getting captured on TV?Originally Posted by Schumi

If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
I can see where you're coming from. I'm a "scouser", born and bred, and I can never cheer on Man U, no matter who they are playing. I have to admit, even though i'll probably get linched for it, that I was cheering on the Hun when they played them in the Champions League last year! My Man U Champions League highlight is Keano's beautiful near post own goal against Real Madrid at Old Trafford (The Theatre of Sleep, oops sorry Dreams!) a few years back. Priceless!Originally Posted by RedX
Def. Shels progressing in the CL would be good news for the league BUT Byrne makes enemies of even the nicest of people. I genuinely hope Longford and Bohs progress though. They haven't half the guff about them as Shels do.
To give gary his due, he's never had any time for getting behind other clubs- never asked for anyone else's support and never offered his, so its not like the recent results have changed his attitude.Originally Posted by max power
Personally speaking, I like to see other eL clubs do well because it does benefit us all. I like to support everything that is good about this league- unfortunately Shels represent just about every negative there is in eircom League football. The only positive going for them is their professionalism. I hope they go through just for the sake of the league's profile and the co-efficient, but as long as they play crap football with a bad attitude, they won't get any further in Europe. I only hope they don't embarass us again
Don't know TBH. What end did they score into? I was in the new stand.Originally Posted by Macy

Best of Luck to Shels and Longford (Hard Luck Bohs). City got Europe talking about Irish football, now we need to keep up the momentum. The national team have a tough WC qualifying group ahead, the more Europe fears the Irish, the better!
Best of luck to shels tonight
dunno why you're saying haha to the shelsOriginally Posted by clarke

All they need is 1-0 next week.Originally Posted by thecorner
We'd have settled for that against Nantes.
