no problem with that,we have a great season so far, the league is a benchmark of where you are in terms of being the best...u can get lucky in cups,its a one off game...

anyway at least u wont be playing for or having a say in your line ups against shels and im sure longford wont role over that easily

One way to ensure ye don't finish last is by beating Shels either tonight or at the weekend. That would ensure Dublin City couldn't catch you.

It would also give us a hand

Of course if you'd really prefer Shels to win the league than Longford to ensure their safety in the Prem Division thats up to you.

Longford hold key to title race

FAI Cup winners Longford Town could hold the fate of the eircom League title in their hands when they visit Tolka Park tonight for the first two games this week against Premier Division leaders Shelbourne (kick-off 7.45pm).

Defending champions Shels hold a four-point advantage over second-placed Cork City and are just four games away from clinching back-to-back titles.

Two of those games are against Longford, whom they meet in a return league fixture at Flancare Park next Saturday night. Anything but maximum points for the Dubliners from those games will keep the nerves jangling a little longer as the season draws to its conclusion.

Despite winning the FAI Cup for the second year in succession 10 days ago, adding to their League Cup success earlier in the campaign, Longford�s league form has been unimpressive and they are still mathematically in danger of relegation.

But Alan Matthews� side will be encouraged by Shels� current dip in form at Tolka Park, with the Dublin side scoring just once in three winless home games.

Longford will have midfielder Dean Fitzgerald available again following a one-match ban which ruled him out of last weekend�s defeat at St Patrick�s Athletic while frontman Dessie Baker could also return having missed the same game through injury.

Shelbourne manager Pat Fenlon could well leave things intact and stick with the same side that started the goalless draw at home to title rivals Cork last Friday night.

Can I hold out a vestige of hope to you nervous Corkonians. Tonight is the night when Longford Town might upset the applecart for Shels. The teams best performances are reserved for away matches against the top teams.
Unfortunately the reverse is the case for home games (as ye witnessed lately in Flancare) so Shels to coast home at the weekend.
Would ye settle for 50/50 split of results?

**patsh** · 01/11/2004, 11:38 AM

$hels will beat Longford by at least 2 goals tonight. Matthews is hoping for a job from Oily someday.

**Longfordian** · 01/11/2004, 11:41 AM

Mathews is too professional for that..he hates losing and I mean really hates losing..

thecorner · 02/11/2004, 12:03 AM

im still not giving up..if we keep winning and shels even just draw one of their next 2 games...its all down to the wire.....what chances of shels sh!tting themselves then
