Series 6 picks

Cork City vs. Drogheda
Pick – Cork City
Apparently fans are being let into Turner’s Cross for free. They must think it’s an exhibition with the Drogs come to town.
FD- Cork City
 
Dundalk vs. Shamrock Rovers
Pick – Dundalk
Rovers almost lost to Drogheda. Yikes.
FD- Shamrock
 
Galway United vs. Bohemians
Pick – Bohs
Galway has been a pleasant surprise, but the Gypsies will be looking to bounce back from Friday’s loss.
FD-Bohemians

 
St. Patrick’s Athletic vs. Derry City
Pick – Derry City
Pats are banged up but good, while Derry is hitting its stride early as the class of the league.
FD – Derry City

Sligo Rovers vs. Bray Wanderers
Pick – Bray Wanderers
Sligo is a no-go, while Bray builds off a gritty win in lousy conditions at St. Pats last Friday.
FD- Sligo

No Cash? No Problem!

Cork City chairman Tom Coughlin, apparently looking for an even better excuse to not pay his players, is  not taking money for today’s game against Drogheda. From www.loi.ie -

“We recognise that people are facing tough times at the moment; you only have to look at the papers or turn on the radio or TV to see that people are struggling financially. As a football club which is rooted in the community, we feel an obligation to show some leadership and help to lift some of the doom and gloom and that is why we are offering the people of Cork the chance to come and watch City free of charge on Tuesday.”

That’ll teach his players to start demanding pay.

Injury Time
