    Lopes..not the answer

    ..to any of our problems.
    I've seen him three or four times now and he's done nothing.
    I'm sure we'll get the "give him time" replies, but TBH Aidan Murray or Admir Softic would do a better job. He should be imposing himself on games at U21 level, but he has been very poor - weak in the air for a big man & terrible distribution. My money is on him being gone by season's end, unless Dolan has a blind spot for him.

    he's alright, nothin special, but he's only here three weeks FFS. give him a bit of time to settle.

    you're right about aidan murray, he's a fantastic talent, still very raw talent though. he wasn't great last night, seen him play better though. question mark hanging over his temprement, but if he sticks it out he'll have a great future.
    Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?

    Lopes certainly didn't stand out on saturday night against a very average Sligo/Leitrim team.

    Anybody else see Mark Hutchinson playing for them. He used play for Sligo and shels.

    Very dodgy hairdo complete with hairband. Maybe its all the rage in the North West.

    Dunno ... the game the other night (U21) was a tenner. Depends on where they are played though !!
    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.

    the game on saturday was 10 for adults, 3 for kids because it was a final. u21's usually play out in bishopstown and there isn't usually a charge. well worth going to see them- they play some nice football
