    Congratulations to dfx on his title win tonight - been a long time coming. Congrats to Bluebeard on getting the runner up spot.

    The lack of an out and out strike ultimately cost me the title, no complaints with my defence in fairness. Second 3rd spot in a row. Hopefully next season we won't lead the league for nine weeks in a row (like the last two seasons) tis the kiss of death.

    Major Congrats to Dfx - managed to watch his game after mine without seeing the score, and it looked good for me for the first 18 minutes, then for about 3 in the second half, but major congrats. I still reckon there is something funny in Liffey's waters though...

    Major commiserations to dancinpants - just pipped you on GD, and you were a mighty adversary this season. I was lucky and you were not following on from the starts we made. Hopefully we will both improve next season

    Most of all, thanks to (relegated) Sligoman for all his efforts to keep the league going and ignoring the utter jeering he has received all season. Kudos to you, young fella, 'tis a grand ols league to play in...

    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

    Well done dfx. Finally got a season of both home and away performances.

    I didn't enjoy the one game per week this season. I would rather have one league and no cup games, if we could get two league games per week. Couldn't imagine a season without playing Sligo and Patsys.
    As Irishmen we dilute our sense of nation by depending on the English to bring us our balls

    Thanks to everyone for playing this season, it was possibly too long in the end up so think we'll go with 2 games a week next season, that ok? I'd like to congratulate Sligo Starlets on winning the Division 1 title and Provisio...ah no, I can't go that far, sorry

    Any chance you could apply for a different team BGR? You're welcome back in the league, it's just that lucanhoop is coming back to that team whenever the system allows me to re-appoint him again. Mason United and Giants FC are good teams with no manager if you want one of them? Or just apply for whoever you want that's vacant if you don't mind. Or as always you can apply for a new team.

    Cheers Bluebeard, it's no hassle really, just need people to stay active with their teams.

    Congrats to cobh for their great result tonight and getting promoted with Loops and ourselves. Unucky wexfor boys, strong finish to the season but unlucky that Cobh got Looprevil at a good time. Great to win the league and see the big boys next season, at least another sligo team will be up there!Im sure the rovers will be back next season!

    Congrats biscuit, though forgive me if I say that I am not looking forward to playing you next year - most evenly balanced team in the league outside of our own I reckon. Ye'll be problems...

    Typical, you wait six seasons and get one trophy - then there's two in three days

    League: check
    Cup: check
    Win at lofty: check
    Win at Patsy's Fags: check

    Last objective may be the toughest

    Win at the Canalside

    It's just not right that Patsy's Fags are down

    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    It must be a complete injustice that I'm going down so cos I finished higher than them.

    So how do y'all think ye'll fair in the season updates? My defence looks like it could be stronger next season. All on 100% match experience and average a 15 avg form. A 6, an 8 and a couple of 7's there as it is.

    Midfield will be up and down. Camoranesi looks like he could drop a skill bar, avg form of 8 due to being out injured. McKenzie and Stapleton should come out good. Conlon should stay steady. Ferriera should make it to 6. Duffy will hit 4 if he's lucky.

    Up front looks like a fookin' disaster

    Anybody putting anyone worthwhile onto the transfer market

    Season update should bring a mixed bag...positives but not many increases outside the big players I think.

    Valentia might finally make 9 despite his 0 form after being removed from the run in. Cobh's av. form of 15 on top of 16 last year should surely get him to 8. Possibles with Piquet, Nardini and the big two upfront. Dunno how Liffey will do, but has av. form of 14 - probably stay the same. Gabrilovic with injury and suspension could go down.

    Anyone want Mendoza, Naas, Harte? Opposite problem to you dp

    No expense spared on a legend's recovery

    Six seasons, 140 games, 90 X11s and 69 goals (only beaten by Maynooth, Davidsson and Blasi) and he falls with the line in sight of victory...and because of the brutes from Sligo

    Youz should be ashamed

    And I'd guess that particular player has been the hardest worked player in the league too

    No no, he usually has an easy enough match actually...due to my iron defence.

    Well done dfx_ been along time coming. Doesn't mean I'm going to let you win at the Canalside though.


    Sligoman I'll remember those bruising tactics sof yours on the last day of this season next time our two sides meet....... taking out two of my players with the change report just around the corner.

    Please steno...even just a goal would be nice?

    Giants FC is by far the best team down there (except for the Fags now), so that would be the best to take. You should be able to change their name no problem.
