Cork City at Home 3/8/2008

**sligofan4ever** · 27/07/2008, 9:53 PM

Anyone think we will get atleast a point out of this one ? wouldnt play Curran in this one, was very non existant last friday. unfortuatly it looks like we could be heading for another loss considering the team they have compared to ours, but you never know when they just might not be themselves, if were to get anything out of it we not going to score much 1-1 i'd go for Raff to score. Would give Paul a start, wouldnt put Boco up front on his own or a midfielder up with him, and is Seamie back for this one ? and maybe if this lad on trial signs in time will he play ?

Brush
Coleman Peers Almeida Butler
Raff O' Grady Ventre Doherty
Boco McTiernan

SUBS:
Jennings
Noctor
Cash
McLoughlin
Curran

ohh, ive written in Creane instead of Curran by mistake, but tbh i'd give ross mcloughlin a chance ahead of Creane this time, hes probably the best player on the A Team and deserves his call up.

**brianw82** · 28/07/2008, 9:37 AM

With the way Cork played last night, I wouldn't expect us to get anything out of this. We can't score (Harps don't count, coz they're ****e), and City will probably have more luck than they did against Pats.
Looking on the bright side, I'm sure we'll at least make things difficult for them.
Agree with Ross McLoughlin. He should be in there ahead of Creane, and possibly even McTiernan, as he's at least playing games recently.

**LondonRover** · 28/07/2008, 10:32 AM

Yeah - I thought that Cork played relatively well last night and I'd imagine it'll be tough to get anything off them next week. Still, it's my first trip home to the Showgies this year and that usually brings a bit of luck!

Will be delighted to get any sort of win in this game. We are looking like a tired team & travel to Finland won't help. Mooney could get a goal on the break though.

What is the deal with Boco? Is he a natural forward? Seen him on TV & looks like he creates a lot of chances & good runner in space but his finishing is shocking - looks like he closes his eyes & hits as hard as he can...

Do ye still have Judge?

Boco certainly works hard, no doubt about it, but hes not a natural forward more of an attacking midfielder. Yes we still have Judge but he looks to be out for the rest of the season with a fractured cheekbone and damaged eye socket.

**deecay** · 28/07/2008, 12:14 PM

Rommy does everything perfect apart from finish

**sligofan4ever** · 31/07/2008, 1:23 PM

If Seamie's out I suppose it would be Raff playing right back again, and maybe David McDaid and Richie Ryan will get a shot in the team if their deals are finalised. Dont know who to put up front with Boco though.

**red bellied** · 31/07/2008, 1:32 PM

McTiernan went off injured against City United so will have to wait and see if he is fit for Cork.

Cretaro and Peers suspended for Bray match

**sligoman** · 31/07/2008, 1:40 PM

Liam Kearney and Pat Sullivan suspended for Cork.

**Redzer** · 01/08/2008, 7:49 AM

After the trashing they got last night, it could be good time to meet them. 1-0 Rovers

**gustavo** · 01/08/2008, 9:09 AM

I was thinking the opposite Redzer , they might come out all guns blazing , Still I think we can get at least a draw out of them

**brianw82** · 01/08/2008, 10:22 AM

Sullivan has been immense for Cork this year, he'll be missed badly by them. Kearney is a consistent nuisance, glad he's not playing.

Having said that, our record when Peers is not playing is truly woeful. Does this mean Ventre goes to centre half against goal machine Mooney?

As gustavo says, I think Cork will be massively up for this game after their hammering in Finland. I know we'll give it a right go and all, but the realist in me says that our chances of winning are slim (esp. without Peers)

**sligofan4ever** · 01/08/2008, 12:11 PM

It dosent say anything on the website about Peers being out of this one, Wonder if Cookie will put raff at right back and if Seamie's fit enough put him in centre defence to mark Mooney.

**gustavo** · 01/08/2008, 12:15 PM

I somehow doubt Cookie would use a game against a team with the top scorer in the league to try out Seamie at centre back , If Peersie doesnt make it Ventre will play CB I'd say

**sligoman** · 01/08/2008, 12:29 PM

Who said Peers is out?

He's suspended for Bray, not this game.

He's actally right there, it would have said he was out on the website for this one anyways, but no matter what game it is hes still going to be a huge loss to the starting 11. Is Seamie going to have a late fitness test again ?
