Don't forget Flynny and George... sure we should get rid of them too. And bring back Derek, Deccie, Hartigan and Kieran Nagle?

I said it before and ill say it again,

Where are you from and was the labotomy painful??

[patsh]

Well Dolan wants him back.
He just said on the BRB that he has to talk to him to see if there is a way he can come back.
Possible loan move from Bohs....and Derek to cop himself on and get over his bitterness, giving him the chance to play again ??????

brilliant kieran nagle is available we should break the bank for him and i believe jimmy nodwell is available as well

i'm happy to give Dolan the benefit of the doubt and if it goes through to give Derek a cheer if he returns, but surely a CB should not be our focus.

You can laugh, but if Patsy or Davey Barry had a pair of boots with them the other night !!!!

I hope not. I honestly don't think Derek is good enough to get into our current side. Both Dan and Benno are much better centre backs than him, and on top of that they're both playing well. Like i said, if we have him it's a bonus because someone else doesn't, but he isn't any better than what we have.

just popped into my head, but with hoggy's ability to get forward and woods at left back, is there any chance Dolan would look at a 3-5-2 line up.

don't think it'd be great myself but thought i'd throw it out there.

no and get that crazy thought out of your head
4-4-2 ya ******

[De Town]

3-5-2 is a load of crap!

We tried it for a couple of weeks after the Special Olympics break and none off the players knew what was going on. Went back to 4-4-2 for the Derry match and won 4-0. We're playing so much better since went back.

I disagree with Eanna and i'd replace Beno with Coughlan. Beno cost us against Shels & waterford. Also i think beno gave away the free which led to the Derry goal on Friday??

Yea it was his fault the free took a lucky deflection wasn't it???

[Eric]

I think 4-5-1 is the best by far!!!!

1st.... thing in your team 4 out of 5 of your defenders are very slow
(coughlan,bennet,murray,hoggie.)
2nd.... thing greg is out for another 3 weks at least and eve when he dose come back wouldn`t be 100% so i`d leave him out for the rest of the season
3rdly.... bringing back derek is a mistake, big lad good header of the ball but his lack of pace will give away silly free kicks around the area (mark my words) and will also unsettle an already nervous defence. so if i was pat i`d do what hes been doing all season and try and stay with the same defence let them molde together and see can they improve upon the last few mistakes other wise city will keep slippin down the table (again mark my words)
