ONE-EYED MONSTERS

Jun 28th, 2007 | By Walk The Chalk | Category: Eircom League, Irish Football

It has to be a sign of the increasing pressures on managers. Full time set-ups; increasing competition; expectations of fans and boards; childcare; house prices; the cost of tooth whitening. The glamour of professional football comes with attendant…

A change in fortunes on all fronts…

Jun 20th, 2007 | By WCR | Category: Soccer News

I sit here at just before 1am UK time listening to some inane item on Radio 5 about eating chocolate - have to say - late night on Radio 5 has gone right downhill over the past year - mainly thanks to the frankly rubbish contributions from one Anita Annand.  At least I’ve got Up [...]

It’s a clement mid-May midweek, and the lower rungs of the non-leagues, those particular struck by winter postponements, are crawling their way to a finish. Your hobo tries to put off the inevitable close season by doing two in a week, a cloudy Tuesday and a sultry Thursday, but decides only to pen up on one of ‘em.



FAI Cup: Drogheda 0-1 Bohemians

Jun 17th, 2007 | By Graeme | Category: Soccer News

Three Friday nights without a game and I was starting to get a few withdrawal symptoms. The break in fixtures couldn’t have came at a worse time either. The summer break last year wasn’t too bad as the World Cup was in full-flow. This year though it’s a different story. Just as a Friday evening has now come to mean football night for me, so too does it now constitute Big Brother night for my



Sligo Rovers 2 - 1 Bohemians

Jun 17th, 2007 | By Graeme | Category: Soccer News

I was back in Scotland duing the weekend of the game against Sligo Rovers on June 2nd. Finding out the result of a game your not at while in Ireland is hard enough, but trying to get the latest back in Scotland proved to be nearly impossible. In the end I had to wait until the final score was eventually added up on BBC teletext shorlty after ten o’clock. Even then I was only able to find out the



1 Week Changes Nothing

Jun 16th, 2007 | By Randyfan | Category: Soccer News

Have been away for the past week, I went to Borneo. No internet. No TV. No radio. When I came back I found out how much didnt change. People still complaining about the white kit, Henry still linked to Barca. Its almost as if the world stopped for me. …

Jun 14th, 2007 | By Walk The Chalk | Category: Eircom League, Irish Football

It may trip from the tongue as easily as ancient Greek, but the eircom League community owe even a whispered ‘thank you’ to the marketing gurus employed by the FAI; exponentially to the FAI itself. There, I’ve written it. I picked up many a p…

Weekly Round Up: Less Barca, More Malouda

Jun 8th, 2007 | By Randyfan | Category: Soccer News

Pires talked to the Daily Star and said that Thierry Henry should join Barcelona as Arsenal is ‘at the end of a cycle’. Now, I’m not denying that Arsenal are at the end of a cycle but Bobby, being an Arsenal legend shouldn’t have made that comments as …



Stute 5 Supporters 5 (Stute win on pens)

Jun 6th, 2007 | By Steelo | Category: Soccer News

On the 15th of May 2007, Stute took to the field in an 11-a-side match against their supporters for the second time, to try and erase the memory of their penalty shoot-out defeat three years’ previously.
Stute were pretty much at full strength, and I won the toin coss against Philsy. A good sign. Minutes into [...]

Would anything less than the league title be considered a successful season?

Jun 5th, 2007 | By Randyfan | Category: Soccer News

Martin from insidearsenal’s post on winning the FA Cup will not be a successful season made me ponder a few things. Although I disagree with the article, I feel the FA Cup has never been a priority for Wenger in his 11 year reign. In fact, I remember d…
