    I'm going for 7 way tie for the First Division title as there is next to nothing between those 7 teams in strength, should be fascinating competitive division though none of them will be good enough to beat a Premier Division team in a play-off

    Getting sacked: Reynolds, Mackey, Barrett, Lyttle, Heary

    Yes, of course he was, what a bizarre thing to ask. I'm really interested in how you explain that he wasn't.

    Frank Lampard didn't do any actual midfield work. Hes a deep lying forward. He lines up as a midfielder but didn't have the responsibility.

    Define midfield work? Are you saying Lampard never did any defending or just rarely? Roy Keane rarely got in the oppositions box and scored goals, was he a midfielder or a defender?

    Lampard is irrelevant. Richie Towell played central midfield

    Only my view but I don’t see Pats finishing any higher than 5th and even though I have that as my prediction I think they might be challenged by the likes of Sligo, Bohs and Waterford if they settle. It’s going to be very tough on any side who lose 2 or 3 in a row and more so in a 10 team division. Having a quality squad will be key, 36 games is a long season.

    When Dundalk beat us 3-1 towards the end of the 2015 season, Towell pretty much went wherever he wanted. Sometimes he was picking up the ball from the defenders to start attacks, but was also the player who got onto the end of a McMillan knock-down to equalise.

    You do realise that both Dundalk and Cork have not finished outside the top 2 since 2013? Even 2013 Dlk finished 3rd. Your top 2 is just mental by the way.

    I wish people would stop being so positive about Harps. It offends and appalls me.

    Towell spent half the game receiving the ball short from his centre halves. Not sure how anyone could describe him as a striker.
