Personally i think it's a mockery ! They have John Flood as our player to watch ! no research done what so ever, if they had of done a bit they would have known they Floody has as good as retired from footie due to a serious injury and has'nt played a game for us since half way through last season.
Sparkey - it's not the job of Irish media to either actively promote our league, or to turn down legitimate advertising revenue in a naive attempt to do so.Originally Posted by sparkey
I thought the mag in todays mirror was alot better than their efforts of previous seasons. The articles on players rights, players from abroad, pressure on part time players were all very well written. The single page profile of the premier league teams and the half page profile on the first division teams was a little sahbby and under researched. But what really p1ssed me off was the ad that they allowed RTE to run on the back page. That will really encourage armchair supporters to come out and support their local team for the coming season
Do we ever not grumble about the Eircom League....?
Good to have mag as get some publicity out of it but its standard continues to be lacking.
Dubious Probable Lineups - O'Halloran played centre back for city a few times last season when suspensions but never likely to play there regularily. O'Brien unlikely to take place of Gamble in midfield.
Incorrect or sketchy squads - apparently Shane Guthrie is a forward when he is a defender. Did they mix up with Shane Long?
Lack of prrof reading - in one sentence they acknowledge that Dolan is gone (likely to be replaced by Rico) but in another sentence assume Dolan still there.
Looks like just excuse for some publicity for the PFAI & i'd say they happy as long as breakeven with ads.
Interesting to see Shamrock Rovers have 12 man squad for 2005. I know they having hard time but...
In fairness, guessing any probable line-up is going to be dubious.
That's just too funny.
Ceci n'est pas une signature
christ almighty they mixed nearly the whole harps team up
