    Best keeper in the league?

    In my opinion it would have to be Darren Quigley of the students. Very impressive any time ive seen him. Just pips Devine IMO.

    Mick Devines saves this year have been unbelieveable, especially in Prague. He's the best.
    As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.

    Devine has stood out this season. Young keeper would be between Quigley or Murphy, both great prospects

    Quigley, Devine and Murphy are well ahead of the rest IMO. I'd go with Quigley but then I'm biased!
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    Delaney has done pretty well since getting into the Shels squad as well, Forde with Derry has also had a good season.

    Devine because he has competed on a different level to all the others this season.

    Devine IMO. Has been top keeper since he was in Waterford. One player I was really sorry to see go.

    I'm going to be harsh and say that Quigley is not tall enough. He doesn't catch enough crosses. He's brilliant at stopping shots but he flaps and punches too often.

    Russel Payne! I challenge you to nominate a more entertaining keeper to watch who played in the eL this season.

    Russel Payne was a superb keeper with us for a while!

    Forde has been superb this season, saving us away to $hels in the cup and home to Cork. Devine has also been fantastic. Both are however prone to rare strange errors. Devine against Harps springs to mind and Forde has dropped a few cathces during the season.
    "The Derry fans were fantastic in both matches. They sang their hearts out all the time and created an even better atmosphere than the Cup Final. They were brilliant. - David Graham, Gretna striker

    Devine has been way ahead of all others. Murphy has done well but not at high level to notice him Quigley good but again not enough top class action. Devines saves in Prague showed he could rise to big occasion & IMO should be in irish squad.

    Where does Nicky Colgan play?

    Devine.
    Has made a fairly good centre-back pairing look excellent and has won a good 8 to 10 points single-handedly.

    2nd place Quigley.
    3rd place Biscuits.
    City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

    colgan is with barnsley in league 1. (edit: oops sorry wrong div- its actually league 1)

    hopefully no cork fan ever gets to manage ireland - through foot.ie i've seen outraged cork fans call for doyle, the drunk-driver, kearney, o'flynn and now devine (i'm probably missing a couple more) to be included in the irish squad

    In the squad, they have all hit some sort of internmational form reciently.

    In fairness, Colgan is in the 4th English division, while Devine has played 11 times in Europe over the last year and a half, surely thats worthy of being the 3 choice Irish keeper?

    [QUOTE=Speranza]Russel Payne was a superb keeper with us for a while!

    [QUOTE]

    Heard he was your POTY a few years back

    Oh we've had a few beauts the last couple of years with Payne and Mooney

    Anyway best keeper would have to be Devine. Amazing performance in Prague and has been consistently good despite his size.

    But Barry Murphy has been a revelation especially considering he had to jump in the deep end after Payne threw the ball in the net at Richmond. Week in week out he has saved us. If Payne was still around we would have been relegated in May

    Cullen for us has been outstanding, even though he one of the worst defences in the league in front of him.

    Only for himself and McHugh we'd have been relegated a month ago.
