That's good yeah - resort to personal insults. I REPEAT, stick to your own club's hopes/expectations. Leave us liars/langers/twots (and whatever else you want to call us) out of it.

BTW you should read all your posts again. A mass of contradictions.

First Post

However in another post you mention what you hoping for so no minimum expectation...

I would say just Liam Murphy could be described in that way.

Min------Survival
hoping---win the League

**Bald Student** · 06/01/2006, 7:29 PM

Minimum: That I can enjoy a fair sporting competition without any silly changes to the league format being introduced.

Hopeing: Qualify for the UEFA through the fair play award, beat Barcelona in the final having knocked out Celtic and Man United along the way and for Trinity to finish bottom of the U21 league.

**Rebal Boy** · 06/01/2006, 9:06 PM

Min for me is a Top 2 finsh in the Lge

Hoping Get though atleast one round in the Champs Lge and win eatier the Setanta or the FAI Cup.

**Iorfa** · 06/01/2006, 11:07 PM

Minimum: Survival.

Hoping: A stress-free season this time, top 6 finish and a greater support from the Waterford public.

Then you shouldn't have quoted the part of the post which specifically referred to Cork's league spot. You can't expect to improve on first in the league with a record points haul.

Still you are harping on about one of several elaborations made when I was asked how Cork can have a better season? Why exactly? Your opinion on this matter is clear, as is mine, give it a rest.

Actually that's not true. They could get even more points next season, score more goals and concede less. That would all be an improvement with Cork City in the league

. I feel so honoured, I proved a UCD fella wrong

**Bosco** · 07/01/2006, 5:16 PM

Minimum: Survival but hopefully things wont get that bad.Good football,if its not produced this season,adios alan.Under 21s given a chance.

Hoping: Regular bigger attendances.Some under 21s breaking through.Good cup runs and maybe another final appearance.4th

**Maz** · 08/01/2006, 2:11 PM

Minimum: Gonna say survival but I think we will be ok.

Hoping: Good position in the league, larger crowds in Flancare, am I asking to much for a cup final?

But my point the whole way is that can't be a minimum expectation - a hope maybe, but not an expectation. So ThatGuy was, in my opinion, wrong to knock Tiktok's minimum expectation when in fact the pos was about the first recorded evidence of a Cork fan with his feet actually somewhere near the ground!

that year out really is paying off sligoman

**B-Stand** · 09/01/2006, 6:37 PM

Minimum - Fifth in the league, a couple of good cup runs.

Hoping - To win the league, but top 3 (with Euro and Setanta qualification) would be a significant improvement.

Like That Guy, not too confident about the season ahead...

**Gareth** · 09/01/2006, 7:15 PM

Minimum: A Cup, good run in Europe, top two

Hoping: Win everything we are in and qualify for UEFA Cup thru intertoto, all Irish sides do well in Europe and for everything I have planned to work

**Dillo** · 09/01/2006, 7:58 PM

As a Longford man my expectations for the coming season are very low. We've lost a couple of quality players and there are no signs as yet of any quality replacements. In addition to other areas we also lack a natural goal scorer and I was half hoping that we might snatch Kevin McCugh. I've little faith in the current management set up and i'm predicting a long hard season which will probably end up at mid-table mediocrity.

**babydol** · 10/01/2006, 11:12 AM

Minimum: top two finish in the league, winning some silverwear and doing well in Europe

Hopefully: League Champions, Setanta cup winners, FAI Cup Winners,Intertoto cup winners, Uefa Cup.... ok i'll stop now.

I'm also hopefull I won't have to rely on Gareth for updates as much this season as I'll actually get to more games.

Not too much to ask is it.
