It may not come to that. I still expect a twist or two to come. To their credit, Cork are a good and resilient side.
However, if results go our way and Dundalk go to Turners Cross as 2015 champions, I think John Caulfield and his players will show a lot more class than you. They know how hard it is to win this league.
Christ I'm horrible when I'm drunk lol. it would irk me a lot but I'd applaud ye alright.
I find any begrudgery towards Dundalk a bit irking they are clearly one of the most effective squads to ever grace the league in my time maybe not the most talented or pretty to watch but they are super fit & organised there is much to admire in them apart from Towell they are a likeable team & worthy champions its up to the rest of us to up our game & knock them off their perch.
That's just compared to the $hels side that dominated & ourselves of 2013 both beautiful sides to watch I didn't mean to take anything away from Dundalk they are a fine side.
To be fair, that Pats side was poetry in motion at times. Particularly when Flood was on the bench
They didn't have the power or pace of Dundalk so had to rely on their use of the ball. Watching the patterns of play they came up with was a joy to watch.
One of the finest LOI sides I've seen in 40 years.
I was reading this again and some of your posts since, appears to be a little jealous streak coming out, everyone including the current DFC owners (who are actively working on finding a solution) know the stadium is not up to standard, so strange point you are trying to make linking this with a (possible) league title this year.
I'd be more interested to know what areas of improvements you think Cork can make next season, not just to re-qualify for Europe (not easy) but to finish ahead of everyone else? It's possible, anything is, but you will obviously need to be better than the rest.
A change in Cork's style or speed of play maybe? More new players, or possibly a change of manager? Rovers will be stronger next season you would think, and there will be more pressure on Fenlon to deliver, Dundalk will probably start as favourites, so it's going to be as difficult as it was this season.
Then again you do have a lovely stadium and pitch.

Yeah surprised with how far away it was moved to as well but maybe it's good we don't have another Monday game in the build up to the semi final in bray, which barring a complete dundalk implosion, is our only chance of silverware. In terms of the league it's all about tying off second place.
Can we get back to talking about Finn Harps and the playoffs? I'm bored of this Dundalk and Cork handbags.

Most definitely Nigel, always loved a trip up to Donegal, be great if you can make it back. Some craic in Jackons last night we were up.

Looking like Harps and UCD in the play offs is it? I haven't been paying too close attention but I should probably start given that we're in all kinds of trouble. We'd probably have enough about us to win a play off over two legs though.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
This is a myth. The MFA have built Turners Cross but they have done it on the backs of Cork City. We pay extremely high rent for the facilities we get and those funds have gone towards building the stadium and maintaining the pitch.
I think its the best possible system, let a separate organisation run the stadium who have no vested interests but improving it and pay them a proportion of the budget each year. You don't then get short sited decisions like we've seen at Dundalk and Bohs and Shels over the years leading to crumbling stadia.
Sligo had the right idea, they knew success in the LOI will always be fleeting and so they invested in their facilities.
