    great start for the city boys

    didnt even kick a ball yet and what a start... shels dropping points to the students at home

    bit of luck for the shels as well with a late penalty equalizer

    amazing the way people change quotes just to suit their own little minds and a little messing on forums...

    but whatever keeps them happy

    Start as they mean to go on......Harris & Heary probably bullied the ref into giving the spotter

    Had to laugh at RTE Teletex this evening saying their squad was depleted due to injuries. Game should have been postponed IMO

    Not fair to expect them to play with just 28 players fit and healthy.

    It's music to my ears!

    Jeez, if $h€£$ cant even beat UCD then I wouldn't give them much hope against any other team.

    Looks like we'll be playing in the Champions League next season lads!!

    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.

    This is where the Dublin teams are an absolute embarrasment to the League. Fair enough, some of them do play good football (God how that sticks in the throat) but in so far as the Clubs themselves and their so called support, what an absolute pity.

    No wonder they all love coming down to us and playing in front of big crowds, and no wonder the players "get up" for these games.

    The Clubs outside the pale (with the obvious exception of Waterford ) really have made progress on this front and will eventually be good for the League. Watch the crowd at Ballybofey on Sat. I'll bet it will be a full house..... with a large section of it being City fans.

    I joked on an earlier post about $hel$ wishing they had the 100 or so supporters who turned up to the UCC v City game on Tuesday.

    Je$u$, I didn't think they were in such bad shape.

    I was at the game, it was double that I'd say.
    I wouldn't get too cocky either, UCD will cause us problems too

    I didn't get it (it's not included in your match ticket anymore, they were charging for it) but it looked better alright, think they've put more effort into it.

    It came from a Bohs fan posting on our forum pretending he got the figure from the radio despite the fact the match wasn't on the radio.

    Which is bad enough, but you lot are even worse for believeing him ffs.

    And while a draw against UCD is obviously a terrible start, you'd do well not to under estimate them. Very difficult side to break down and well organised, and they'll get goals from Dupuy.

    Not quite true. Shels won their first 3 games last season, while their last 3 were 1 win, 1 draw & 1 loss. If anything, Citys poor start cost us the league.

    However it is a valid point. No point getting carried away after just 90 mins of the new season. Give it a month or so, then we'll see where things really stand.
    I think a plan is just a list of things that don't happen - Mr Parker

    Smile I was right

    I said a few weeks ago I thought shels would start slowly and it looks like I might have been right. If we win 4 out of our first 6 games I think we've a great chance. Good start v, important IMO, and a draw or a win in ballybofey would be a good start
