QuoteThe Harps hat trick was mentioned in the Back in Time section of last night's programme.
The Myler debate was over which of the two he scored a hat trick against when it turned out the answer was both.
The Limerick one was before my time but the Harps hat-trick came in the Premier Divison at home in a 4-0. Mick O'Byrne scored the opener before going off injured and was never the same player again. Myler scored 2 penalties and an audacious lob from halfway, the day after David Beckham did the same thing against Wimbledon.
I've been told in the past that one of the Limerick goals was similar but only have vague anecdotal memory to support that and could easily be confused. I'm sure CTID can clear up the matter.

The David Cassidy hat-trick was in November 1979. Darren O'Brien's was in August 1986 in the League Cup, Paul Cullen's was in early 1990. Andy Myler's was in September 1996. I can get specific dates if any one is interested in the coming days.

When did Mick O'Donnell return?
Who says he did, that was a work in progress when you saw it. I'll have to leave the rest of the summary till later on.

Summary of F.A.I. Cup Results ( up to end of Quarter-final 2007)
Played 83 Won 29 Drew 23 Lost 31 Goals For 116 Goals Against 88
The draws includes a (6-7) penalty defeat, which finished 0-0 a.e.t..
A better record than the League Cup for a variety of reasons. We won a higher % of the games actually won the thing and have reached the Quarter-final on 8 occasions!
Our consolation goal away to Sligo was our 400th League goal away from home. Our 0-0 draw against Derry was our 128th League draw away from home. We have now drawn more games away than at home. Our home draws stand at 125 and as we only have two games at home remaining, it will be more away draws in total at the end of the season too.
We are two points away from our 1,000th League point folks . Currently on 998 points since 1979!
The points systems were as follows :- 1979/80, 1980/81,1983/84-1991/92 inclusive 2 points for a win 1 point for a draw
1981/82 Home win 3 points Home draw 1 Away win 4 points Away draw 2 points ( Abandoned after 1 season)
1982/83, ( The League was effectively over half way through the season as eventual champions Athlone were so far ahead they reverted to 2 points for a win and 1 for a draw for 1983/84) 1992/93 to date 3 points for a win and 1 for a draw

The only game Conor Sammon failed to score in proved our undoing in this season's Cup run. Losing a semi-final is the worst experience in the world. At least losing a cup final the players get a medal and you had the big occasion to experience. I'd prefer to go out in Round 1 than lose the semi-final.
Why? That would just look crap and deny the club added revenue.Originally Posted by CollegeTillIDie
Why? You don't get your hopes up of course......plus with all the away draws we usually get the Cup ends up costing the club money.
Gates are shared, and the away club doesn't have any hosting costs to deal with, so away Cup games - especially against the likes of Dundalk and Derry - probably make us money.
Why have a football team at all then?
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Home record this season Played 17 Won 4 Drew 6 Lost 7 Goals for 19 against 23
Points 18 ... atrocious. Last time we had a record this poor was....2000/01 and what happened to us that season.. oh yes... we were in the play-off.
you lot have one of the most talented squads in the league and you are now in danger of haivng to play in relegation playoff.... whats going on??
roversmad
Haven't scored in 4 League and 1 Cup game.. You tell me!
Thanks for the post - talented yes but by and large very young. Most of our squad is under 21 eligible and half of our main side dip in and out of the under 21 team.
If we keep them all we will have a super side in 2 / 3 years but the guys are young and gainign experience.
DB Cooper is alive !
The team switched off after beating Derry in the Cup semi and beating Waterford in the league. Didn't expect Waterford, Galway and Longford to go on a a cumulative run of one defeat in 16. A lot stronger than our league position, but seems to be a - dare I say it? - lack of professionalism in the past few weeks.
