    Quite right - in the mean time it goes on an alphabetical basis, which means that currently Bray are the highest placed team in Dublin.
    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

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

    Bray fans may not agree with that, they might be Dub wannabe's but they're still in Wicklow!

    War, I was talking more about the fact the league have FORCED us to sign Vinnie Arkins in order for us to fulfill our claim to represent the community. We had the kids, the junkies, the foreigners but we had no OAP. *******s. Ridden rock Solid!

    Forgive me, I'm in Hunter-rage mode at the moment. Rumour has it though that Arkins is to be employed as night watchman for Gerry the Builder on his new site.

    Lads, there's a lovely line in Spike Lee's film "Do the Right Thing" - "Them that knows ain't saying, them that's saying don't know."

    Slag St. Pat's all you want but Vinny was signed for two reasons only.... impact sub and as Johnny Mc pointed out he is neither asking nor expecting a full season from him. And as someone already pointed out which other strikers were available?

    you really didn't see much of Bohs last season.

    Winning the ball we invariably hoof at him as we losing and not good enough to outplay teams on the deck. Keego cant run but got a few goals for us last seaon just by holding up the ball and walking into corsses atc :P

    Slight problem there in that he can't jump either - he won't win a single header for you unless the ball is placed directly onto his head without him having to move. No comparison to Keego who was never a quick player but used the ball very intelligently while also being excellent in the air. You might need to get planning permission if Arkins is going to play any matches for you, I'm sure he would be classed as a statue under the planning regulations.

    Keego is sprinter compared to old man Vinny.

    Pat's would actually have been better off bringing Derek Swan out of retirement than signing Arkins, honestly, he's that bad!

    As someone pointed out (using slightly different words), Bray are wicklaah sheepshaggers who wish they were from Dublin. However, your knowledge of the alphabet is as bad as your knowledge of the geography of Dublin and its environs.... BOHEMIAN FC comes before Bray!
