Those Longfordian folksies
Come'on De Town !!![]()
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
CORK.
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
Shouldn't this be moved to the eL forum? I voted for Longford. I have a soft spot for the club. Not sure why, I just respect what they are trying to achieve. If not them then Shelbourne.
if not us, then longford
If not us then Cork I guess
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Looks to me that Cork Fans don't want to vote for Shels and vice versa, so they vote for Longford instead! Can't vote for league rivals so the other eL team gets the vote. Did that myself alright.
It feels kinda dirty thinking about another club winning. But it is Longford for me, I guess.

If not CCFC, it has to be Longford!

Up for Cork or Longford, but not Shels or any of the others
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
If ye match all this goodwill with financial faith even in small amounts you could make some money as we're gone out to 16-1 to win it with Ladbrokes and 6-1 just to get through the group. My money is going to go on us to get out of our group at 6-1 anyway.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
I'll have to go for Cork City. After all it's been years since they've won any major trophy.![]()

If you don't like John 3:7...
There's always Limerick 37!
It seems to me that other eL fans are loath to vote for Shels. Is it a case that ye think that they have enough money already or do you simply not like Shels? I know Ollie Byrne is a plonker but other than that I think it's great to have a full time team full of superb / outstanding players. Surely it's better to have one eL club like this than none?
I have to say that the demise of Bohs has been an awful loss to the league as the more classy full time clubs the better ( although they are still full time, just not full of classy players anymore). That said, Drogheda are getting more impressive all the time and Cork are still holding their own.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not in favour of a one horse race, but I'd sooner see one eL team make great strides than none.
As long as the competition is a success I'll not concern myself with where the title goes.

In reply to Shelsman's post.
Firstly, Shels are not at all a dominate force in the league. We can lose against the worst of them. I do not think the gulf between us and others is a chasm but a crack. I am talking about on the field now. Its simply not accurate to describe us as anything more than successful. We have good players at the club but so do other teams. I would just hope you don't get too carried away, cos you'll expect far above what we are set to achieve.
In relation to voting for teams. It would be better for our league if the winner came from it. So by default, I hope Shels, Cork or Longford win. I obviously want Shels to win, after that, Longford or Cork. If I was to factor in having to listen to fans afterwards, then Longford because Cork to me tend to be bad winners in relation to alot of posters I have seen, and Longford are not!
Eitherway I hope the competition picks up from the dull opener.
