QuoteIndeed. Squeaky bum time.
sh!te waterford won 2-1! united might have to earn the right to stay up and not rely on other results now...
huge pressure
more water!
Indeed. Squeaky bum time.
this weekend s game is huge against derry we dont want to go down to Waterford with 1 point between us
WE ARE ONLY 6 AHEAD OF LONGFORD TOO AND THUS AUTOMATIC RELAGATION.way too close for comfort.Next week is massive,derry arent in a good run of form but we are even worse id say.Its a nervy month that lies ahead.
get everyone you know up in terryland next week,the 12th man is needed now!!!!
Well here we go , as said next week is another huge game and TC has it right as every game is now a cup final . Look at it this way 3 wins form our last 3 games and no one can touch us , all 3 games are winable we just the fans , players & the staff have to beleive we can get those points .........
the mathamaticians will be coming out soon, JC ?
There are 3 matches left so for longford to catch us they have to get 3 wins out of 3 and hope both ourselves and waterford pick up less than 1 or 2 points each, that wont happen, surely!.
Next weekend we play Derry at home whilst waterford are away to drogheda who, hopefully, will want to win as they receive the cup that night. If we win, any kind of positive result in waterford will see us safe. If we match the same result next week as waterford, we have to beat them in waterford to be safe.
I know there are plenty more equations but thats enough for my brain so far this morning.
Simple enough.
-1 win from our remaining 3 games will ensure we avoid automatic relegation thanks to our superior goal difference.
-we must now beat Derry-nof if's or but's.....a draw is a disastrous result and considering they have't been able to beat Waterford or Bray in the last 2 weeks there's no excuses for us not beating them.
-If we beat Derry and Waterford lose against Drogs a point from the RSC will keep us up.
Only thing i'd be worried about is both Longford and Waterford are starting to win games.We really have to get the finger out and win the next 2 games.It's ours to mess up.

Waterford are at HOME to Drogheda, the trophy presentation is being made the following week when Drogheda play Bray in United Park.Originally Posted by Terry
The Drogs players have had a hard season, not saying they won't be professional, but the pressure is off now, it is a long journey, nothing left to play for . . it all points to Waterfoird getting something from the game imo
"Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins."
"Homer Simpson, smiling politely."
As Conor said on another thread its all about getting behind Tony and the team for the next three games.Get everyone you know upto to Terryland for the remaining two home games and lets fill a few buses for the trip to Waterford.
If the players show the same heart and fight as they did on friday night we will be ok but lets make Terryland Rock on friday night!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm surprised at you Conor, you haven't taken into account a potential 10-0 defeat in Waterford which will wipe out our superior GD!
It's good to have all this for a bit of excitment. A couple of big games tonight with Bray, Longford and UCD all playing.
I suppose ideally we'd want Longford to beat Bray and obviously a home win for Bohs. It will drag us closer to the automatic relegation but a win over Derry on Friday and we'd be above Bray and possibly UCD for our trip to Waterford.
The most important part of that is the win against Derry of course.
Come on United!
I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone"
I'm tempted to cross the Irish Sea two weeks running (over for the UCD game). I have plenty of hols to take from work, but the Waterford game looks like costing £200 between Aer Arann, trains to Luton airport etc. I might look at a rail & sail option!
Havin been to Bray for Fridays match I firmly believe the fight is there. We were poor in the first half but Bray were not great either. In the second half we came out guns ablazin and tbh honest if it was a boxing match it would have been called off. Lester was great pushin up all the time and earned us the peno. O Flynn and Glynn were playin ok but didnt get enough clear cut chances to get a goal. Glynn got the ball on the ground quite a bit but Delaney was simply too big for him to get around, or Delaney fouled him. Anyway back on topic. Were gonna stay up. They had the belief the last night that they could do it. Keep MaCourt out of the game on Fri and keep the Terryland roar high no matter what. I predict two home wins and and away draw for the last three. Any odds on that JC?

We need everyone to spread the word and fill Terryland.Forget the backbiting and bitching for 3 weeks and lets all get up there early and make it white hot.

does that mean lester will go centre back with regi or will wes go in there instead of fitz?
sounds like lester should be left in midfield after the last day
more water!
two great results tonight .A win friday and we go above both ucd and Bray.

mother of god how is been 3 points from automatic relegation a good thing
that is ridicioules!!... last time i checked we had won less games games then the teams below us and you want the possibility of catching UCD/Bray left open at the expense of a shortening gap to automatic relegation.. last i checked we were as high up as was need to avoid the drop
so now we have Longford flying and theres a possibility that come friday we could be 3 points off automatic drop, how can that be viewed as excellent results!!.....
anyone else think tonights results went our way?... seriously i would love to hear how?
There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D
gilberto i have never ever met anyone in my life who is so pessimistic and who takes every chance he can to slag off the club,manager or players.
If we win on friday Longford cant catch us so automatic relegation is out the window. You can beat me around the place if we are beaten on friday but for once this season will you give up on the constant knocking.
I would say 99.9% of all united fans would be delighted that Bray and UCD are being dragged down into the relegation/playoff places.

but the point is we couldnt be automatically relegated if longford lost tonight - with our goal difference - and it would have been a playoff battle instead - the glass half empty scenario
now we could in theory climb above the others with a win on friday against derry - the glass half full scenario
but gilberto has pointed out we dont win that often - but because of this i think i record has to change and hopfully we will win friday night and finish this messy scenario we are in
more water!
id really be surprised that 99% of the fans are happy we're now 3 points from the automatic when one of them teams in on the back of 2 straight wins!.
yes its great that 2 teams ahead of us got gragged into the battle but at the expense of a team below us narrowing the gap for us to be in it??... yes that was a great thing to seethank god your not manager anyway!!
yes well done GUFCT by saying, i didnt understand YOUR thinking you try turn that into me ''slagging the club,manager and players''
and im not always bashing the club just the pathetic excuse for a manager we so happened to appoint last year who you love to defend no matter what the situation.
wake up will ya and stop defending him cause you know him personally!.
''for once this season''.....?... i didnt see too much to shout about this year and i think most ppl will agree with me!.
if we're going to play crap football(that isnt winning points), play players out of position, get beat of pub teams from small GAA areas then im going to speak my mind about it!.
always the super fan Mr.Gufct with the maroon tinted glasses!!:
There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D
