    Highs this season

    Drinking out of the munster senior cup, Ireland's oldest soccer trophy

    Lows this season

    When i woke up the next morning after drinking out of the munster senior cup, Ireland's oldest soccer trophy
    Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?

    Highs:
    - The European Intertoto odyssey.
    - The trip to Latvia for the Metalurgs game.
    - Lausanne away.
    - Winning in Dublin, especially Tolka.
    - George O'Callaghan on form- who needs Zidane!
    - Doyler- what an absolute gem!
    - Winning the League Cup in 98 against Shams, especially O'Dowd being sent off.
    - Away matches in Longford.
    - 2 magical years under Dolan.
    - FourFiveOne. It was a breath of fresh air to City fans in so many senses.
    - Having the best programme in the country.
    - The progress we've made in the last 3 years.

    Lows:
    - The result in Latvia for Metalurgs game.
    - Infighting among fans.
    - The board which left the club stand still and sacked Derek Mountfield
    - City fans throwing things at opposition players/fighting with Shams fans.
    - The sacking of Dolan- a mess we could all have done without.
    - Liam O'Brien.
    - The fact that nearly every time we face a "must-win" game, we bottle it.
    - Not having won anything for so long.

    I agree with the first part (people should remember the past when think current situation bad) but how can you blame the club for trying to make cash from Celtic Fans escpecially when celtic were charge big money for their appearance.

    If City were to play Real madrid in a friendly & charged too much that loyal fans couldn't go i wouldn't lose any sleep over.

    I say they didn't charge enough for that game ..... and i wouldn't mind, but all the huffin' and puffin' you get out of the celtic fans ... they couldn't even fill the cross, pathetic really when you think of it but then again what can you expect !!
    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.
