A sneak preview of Pete's programme notes this week, reveals that our injury list is diminishing by the day. I think Paul Byrne played in a 21s game recently, I think I saw somewhere. I don't know about the rest.
Three points a must here I think
How are all the injuries looking?
McDonnell?
McNally?
McMillan?
Fitzgerald?
Byrne?
Bermingham was at the Pats Bohs match on Monday, said he should be fine
Crowley?
Have I forgotten anyone . . . Doyle out obviously
Kavanagh and Browne out for Waterford

We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Paul Byrne played against Athlone last week. I doubt he will play on Friday. We will know more about the injuries Thursday evening/Friday morning when the press release comes out. Also good to see that two of Waterford's best players are out.
This is a game we have to win, no excuses. Waterford are useless. Good game for McWalter to get his confidence back.
Dman - did you get my text?
I'd go with whoever's fit.
It's a game we really need to win to erase any last doubts about going down, and a game we really should win, given how poor Waterford are, and how they're after a 4-0 midweek derby Cup hammering.
I predict 1-1, with an equaliser in injury time for us.
paul byrne played in that u.21's game and scored a hat trick so id expect him to at least get a place on the bench!
From ucdsoccer.com:
Same team that finished against Derry I'd imagine.UCD's recent injury crisis, which saw seven players missing for last week's Cup Quarter-Final win in Derry, is at last showing signs of abating as the Students turn their attention back to the league, and securing three crucial points to avoid being sucked into the relegation mire.
Paul Byrne and Ian Bermingham may return, although Evan McMillan joins the injury list after coming off at half time in Derry. Killian Gallagher replaced him then and, if Bermingham doesn't return, will likely keep that place. Tony McDonnell, Derek Doyle, Shane Fitzgerald and Alan McNally remain out, however.
Waterford, who lost 4-0 to Cork City in a midweek Cup Quarter-Final replay, welcome back captain Dave Mulcahy, who missed the Cork games due to ineligibility, but Kenny Browne and Daryl Kavanagh are both out through injury.
Kick off in Belfield Park is 7:45pm.
