You're presuming Cork or Rovers will win all their remaining games...

**Danny** · 03/10/2007, 3:50 PM

i think it'll be drogs to win, mainly cos all the teams at the top will take points off each other between now and the end of the season
this w/e the top6 play each other and in 2 weeks the top4 do
cant see anyone going unbeaten between now and end of season and thats what pats/rovers/cork need to do

Different proposition altogether!

Far from over!

But they virtually have to win all of their games, which is unlikely.

Unlikely.

But, far from impossible.

Last third of 2004 season - Cork City's record read W 11 D 1 L 0.

We still have loads of players who know what it is to put that sort of run together.

Squeaky Doolin time!

Cork are in the best form out of any team in the league. Given that and the team they have they are the best placed team to put pressure Drogs. It's not inconceivable that they could drop 10 points from Rovers, Cork, Waterford and Pats, although I doubt that they will.

End of!

Sorry; thought you'd been around to understand that was a parody of the usual Drog response to any sort of criticism.

Always one. Thanks ndrog. Maybe think before you type next time; it'd make a change.

Overall I think we were worth the three points. Certainly had the bulk of the chances though it looked like poor finishing was going to cost us. That said, Sligo could have easily have won it. Very good ten minute spell in the second half forced a couple of really good saves from Connor - one of them absolute class. Not to mention another quality save in the first half. I think if we play like that (well aside from the finishing) from now to the end, we will definitely win it. Still not counting any chickens yet though

The remarkable thing about our season for me is that despite being joint top scorers in the league, our own highest individual scorer still has only seven goals!

Yes was a good game Sligo were on the back foot alot but defended very well and only for Dan could have nicked it. I thought our goal would never come

**feo123** · 06/10/2007, 11:54 AM

might be being slighly bias but thought we were worth a point. we defended brilliantly all night really, just the one time no body picked up their man, drogs scored. well done anyway

Can't see how last night's results change anything. The crucial games for Drogs are against Rovers, Cork and Pats. Win one of them and they're champions.

**pineapple stu** · 06/10/2007, 3:01 PM

How can it not have changed things?!

Regardless of the games you mentioned, Drogs still needed to slip up elsewhere and Rovers/Pat's needed to keep winning. Neither's happened. If Drogs were 1/5 before the weekend to win the league, they're 1/50 now.

Drogs were expected to beat Sligo. If they're going to drop point it's going to be in one of the three games I mentioned.

Don't know why you mentioned Rovers/Pats as Cork now the only other team that has some sort of a chance to win the league.

Bit premature yet?

Drogs will win it but without Gavins goal it would very close especially IF Drogs were to lose to Rovers next week. Best team always finishes top so I would not take from Drogs.

You may call me bitter but IMO Drogs are poorest side this year to win the league in at least 6-7 years because of very poor league this season. I never liked Shels could was able to admit they better team.

**pineapple stu** · 06/10/2007, 3:36 PM

He didn't ask you to call him bitter...
