I think with tonights result I can say Drogheda United 2007 Premier League Champions
Whilst it is (unfortunately) the most likely scenario, i wouldnt be counting your chickens just yet.............
If we beat Rovers on Fri and our game in hand v UCD on monday we are 5 points behind you.
If Rovers beat Drogheda and we beat Bray on the weekend of Oct 12th, then we are 2 points behind you.
And if we beat ye the following week, we are top by a point.
A LOT of ifs and buts I know, but I wouldnt be celebrating just yet.
low lie the fields of Bishopstown......
I've been holding back those thoughts michaelguineys.
I think its feasible.
It would certainly be an amazing capitulation though.
I'm a big disbeliever of the whole make-or-break match thing but a draw in the Cross Friday would put an end to it all.*
I guess you could say it would put a spring in the step of the Boooinnngsiders.
Huh?
Spring?
Boynesiders?
Booiiinng, nah?

City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.
O'Bama - "Eerah yeah, I'd say we can alright!"
G.O'Mahoney Trapattoni'll sort ém out!!
I know it's a hell of a long shot and we have probably left it too late at this stage but it aint over til its over and i think we have done well the past few weeks to have been able to claw our way (mathematically at least!) back into this title raceOriginally Posted by Risteard

Pat's and Cork will probably cancel eachother out of the title race for good with a draw in a few weeks.
But if one of us does succeed in beating the other and win all their remaining games that might just be enough to wipe the smiles off the faces of the Drogs.
Why would you say something like that?I think with tonights result I can say Drogheda United 2007 Premier League Champions:
I am delighted with tonights result, but you are just looking to be shot down or worse, proved wrong
we'll beat drogheda on friday and that';ll help shams and cork out
To be honest I would love nothing more than for someone (hopefully us!) to swipe that title from right underneath Drogheda's nose!!

Yes please!we'll beat drogheda on friday and that';ll help shams and cork out

i'll ask for 3nil so, just in between!a 4 or 5-0 would be nice but i'd settle for a 1-0
seriously though, this league is so unpredictable, anyone can beat anyone on their day...the race isnt over yet
You may need to do the maths again, we are 11 points ahead of you
Hunky Dorys Park - could be worse, we could be going to Old Trafford every other week
In fairness, no.I guess you could say it would put a spring in the step of the Boooinnngsiders.
Huh?
Spring?
Boynesiders?
Booiiinng, nah?
Hell no.

That'l only be true if Drogs lose Friday.
Now they are 11 ahead. We have 1 game in hand. Even if we win that and beat Drogs away we'l still be 5 points off.
Soooo in short, it's over.
I think it was around this time last year that people were saying Doolin was clutching to ever shortening straws........tis great its the other way around this year!......success is sweet!
Yez haven't won anything yet.

Abri o portão de ouro, da maquina do tempo.
Mi mamá me hizo guapo, listo y antimadridista.
I think it's over - Drogs have to lose three times out of the remaining six - or not win more than twice - for anyone else to have a chance; given they've only lost three times all season, this isn't likely. The race is now for second.
A patriot is someone who knows how to hate his country properly.
Listen don't be getting too cocky - it's not over until you can't be caught mathematically and that won't be for another few games so don't be counting your proverbials too soon Drogheda - remember Standard Liege in the Belgian Championship in late '91? No neither do I.
Ya you are probably right and there is probably a 99% chance that they will win the league but that 1% is still there and while it is, us, pats and rovers will keep on fighting.
The league has gone down to the last day the last 3 years, hopefully we can all play our part and make it happen again this year
