Just shows you how corrupt that decision was when his manager doesn't think he's good enough to start in important games.

McCourt is a one trick pony if ever I saw one!

**Speranza** · 30/11/2005, 1:26 PM

Of course he is and Kearney is the new Ronaldinho.

The arrogance of Corkies strikes again. Every single award should be given to Cork players next year just to spare the rest of us the pain of listening to your whining.

There you go you daft git. McCourt goes missing and can be very lazy, that isn't a Cork opinion, I think he got it because his lovely hair. Not the best in the league at least Farren had scored great goals and had bad injuries, McCourt though

WAKE UP

Now where did I say that Kearney should have won it!

While we're on the subject of Kearney though, he played in the Setanta Cup and UEFA Cup for Cork City FC this season.
He has a league winners medal and will have a Cup winners medal on Sunday.

Lets see how mullet man gets on next season when he has to compete on a different level.

By the way, Joe Gamble is the best player in the eircom League by a mile. He's the Paul Osam/Kevin Hunt that Cork City FC needed so badly.

The award was selected by players,so their opinion should be respected(so how is it corrupt?)

So dry your eyes for your Cork heroes.By the way your argument about being on the bench is laughable in important games.A certain George O'Callaghan was on the bench the niight we beat you's 3-1 at the Brandywell.Does Rico not think Georgie is good enough?

I think if I asked my heroes if they'd swap their League Winners medal for some poxy "we think you're great" award, they laugh at me and call the men in white coats.

Enjoy your makey-uppy prizes.

This would be Georgies step over your talking about yea?

**Hecko** · 30/11/2005, 3:21 PM

Relax Speranza and Head the Ball...

I don't think it's in any way an anti-Derry thing to point out that Kenny left McCourt on the bench for quite a lot of games this season - therefore him being in the team of the season at the expense of other players (including Derry players) is a bit odd. For example Brennan played more than twice as many premier games and scored 5 goals this season.

Is it a "usual Corkie" thing if I also point out that picking Dan Murray over Alan Bennett this season is similarly ridiculous?

**Speranza** · 30/11/2005, 3:34 PM

Paeder, if this is as you put it a "poxy" award why are you and other Cork fans whining so much.

It would seem that an award is only important when the might of the galacticos of the peoples republic/real capital/best place ever get it.

Joe Gamble is good fair enough but just as good and exactly the same type of player that Barry Molloy is for us.

Separnza, Molloy got sent off so many times, he thought the 90 minutes was if extra time was added.

Everyone already considers that you know nothing about football without bringing that average Joe into this conversation.

Not yet he's not! Agree with him being your best player though

Never mind what he did just at Derry City. Look at what he was doing at Rovers before he left the sinking ship.

Remember his hat-trick agianst Bray in Dalyer during the first start of the season. That game sums him up really.

Really

Who is everyone? If I fall foul of the opinions of someone from the bastion of wisdom that is Cork then I suppose you are right. Your arrogance is astounding.

Jason Byrne got a hattrick against Bray, so flipping what!
Bray are rubbish!
Who didn't put 3 past them this season?

It was easy for McCourt to stand out in a poor Rovers side.

Lets face it, we were the only decent opposition that McCourt played against this season and he was annonymous!

**Speranza** · 30/11/2005, 4:23 PM

You had the cheek to say I know nothing about football? Were you at this match?

Mc Court was amazing, in fact he wasn't even playing in his usual fashion as he treked back to help out defensively when he wasn't taking the **** out of the Cork defence. Probably because the tv cameras were present but still a briallitn preformance. Could almost swear he got Man of the match.
