    Completely forgot that Hynes is cup-tied. 4-4-1-1 is almost certain to be used, unless Moran gets a start.

    Is he Cup tied? I thought he just couldn't play against Derry but hadn't lost his eligibility otherwise.

    Oh yeah, he isn't. That's what the media reports were saying before the QF but he was on the bench in Dundalk.

    Ronan Finn

    Interesting links between the teams. Seamus Kelly, Robbie Martin and Paddy Sullivan began their senior careers with UCD, Dessie Baker was on loan to UCD. Ronan Finn's father is from Longford

    I am not sure about Finn senior on that score but ,UCD Committee member Joe Nelson did as did the late Willie Browne who gained a Republic of Ireland B international cap while at UCD.

    Shane McFaul's last up tomorrow - some good answers!

    Does he look like Ronan Finn, are we better than Notts County, who keeps trying to get him fined in training?!

    There can't be hundreds of us ****ing against his car cause we don't have any fans

    Alan McNally.

    Can't find the quote from pineapple but when he said that it's too passive to play 4-4-1-1 against Longford that's wrong (although I agreed at the time).

    It all depends on how you play, not what formation you play. For example Man City have played attacking, attractive football this season with the same formation. Once Pete tells the players to go for them it doesn't matter what formation we play.

    In a 4-5-1 or 4-4-1-1 if you're on top of the opponents it nearly turns into a 4-3-3 with the wingers on top of the fullbacks.

    I think Fran has a bit about him and could become a useful player. It reminds me of a raw Conan Byrne starting the 2005 League Cup final.
