The pressure is always on managers of the so called top teams when their respective teams don't begin the season well.Alan Barry,Alan Carroll,Nicky Carroll and Ado FitzSimmons would be big losses to any team.The team that won the league 2 years ago seems to be decimated now so it's understandable that Daithi will have things tough at the moment.

The usual crap from people not in the know. Christy O'Neill went back to the dines because of changes in his personal circumstances. I spoke to the player and he explained that he loved playing with the boro but that he would be unable to put the effort in that he thought would be required and that it would be unfair on the other players if he couldn'y give the same. Wish him well,a good bloke and hopefully he will enjoys his football back with the dines..A.Fitz is injured and hopefully will be back playing soon.N.Carroll informed the manager that he is off to Aus in a few weeks, A.Carroll went to Aus 2 weeks ago. Club Cant fault the teams and staff's efforts so far and with a little bit of luck results will improve.

The boro used to have a fanhtastic underage and youth set up, a lot of good players in recent times have come through!

whats the story with yer underage and youth set up these days leather?, with the top facilities and club set up down there i dont think there'd be many clubs around to match ye
