Irresistible Force Versus Immovable Object

**Mr A** · 23/09/2007, 4:28 PM

Harps- 8 league wins in a row at home without conceding a goal.

Cobh- unbeaten in 27 games, i.e. 3 complete rounds of matches.

One of these formidable records must end on Friday night.

The buildup starts here

nil all draw writen all over it so

1-0 to the rams after 80 mins

**Mr A** · 23/09/2007, 5:23 PM

nil all draw writen all over it so

Bet ye would

Difference is, we want to win, maybe it might be a factor with the players too. Theres a possibility the Cobh players are thinking "I'll take a draw on friday night"
Our lads I know are confident of a win.
Its going to be a cracker, hopefully ye bring plenty of fans and we can have a good atmosphere at the game.

the difference is ye have to win and the pressure of going top could affect ye

all pressure on harps, we know were capable of beating ye we have already proven it, just have to prove it one more time then well be parting ways for a few years

But were not going to play for a draw like ye did last night ye were home. Draw will be great result for us, away from home.

No pressure on Harps, Cobh are the ones who blew the 16 point advantage they had over Harps. Look at the last 6 games played:
Harps won 5 drew 0 lost 1 Points 15
Cobh won 2 drew 4 lost 0 points 10

so unbeaten and all, we have gained 5 points on ye in just 6 games. Remember, 6 games left and only 2 points of a gap. We have Dundalk and Shels out of the way, ye have both to play.
Now who do ya reckon is under pressure?

**thegafferman** · 24/09/2007, 11:08 AM

we will take three points in finn park....refuse to lose!!!!!

**Mr A** · 24/09/2007, 11:31 AM

Are ye taking a bus up? Any chance of a lift to the match for two Galway-based Harpsmen?

**depor** · 24/09/2007, 12:39 PM

id take the draw but i think we can win it, in fact i know we can win it as we have beaten them already this season, and in ballybofey. harps arnt a great footballing side, very physical, that will be their game against us this weekend.

people also seem to be forgetting that harps lost 1 nil to athlone town on 1st of this month, so they arnt unbeatable.

if it was about getting the ball down and playing football, ramblers would win this league hands down.

Was wonderin the same myself Dan.

And yeah were aren'y unbeatable, but we won all games since. Remember, 3 draws are the same as 2 defeats only thing it preserves is an unbeaten run (in which we still managed to gain 14 points on Cobh)

Have to agree rams playing good football,but last time harps came to cobh only a few weeks ago they played some great football,on the ground(as it should be)passing and moving,attacking at every option and it must be said that they are a good footballing team ,physical or not,so has all the ingredients of a great game come friday night..

whats the nightlife like in your neck of the woods

**don ramo** · 24/09/2007, 7:37 PM

lads, let the player do the talking friday night, we are capable of beaten them and i think we can it is posible, plus would be nice to open a 5 point gap for safety reasons (not that well need it), and the pressure is on harps they have come this far, and they cant bottle it now, it would never be forgiven, remember harp are suppose to be here, were not, we have defied everyone and shuffed it back in there faces now let just add a bit of insult to top it off,

c'mon the rams
