Boring enough draw really. At least one of Drogs or Bohs will fall.

Not recently, but we have had more players play for Ireland than any other club anywhere.

One Cawk player capped when at Cork. Ever. Correct?

This would be the same mid-table side you havent beaten yet and scraped a draw with totally against the run of play with a goal that wasn't and the most blatant penalty ever turned down?

All I'm saying is that three of the key players in your current run are odds on away as your hedge fund owners continue to cash in. A lot can change in 5 weeks, and our injury crisis has eased, so we should have clicked back into a winning routine well in time for the cup game.

Not a bit of it. Of course we could have had an easier draw, you do have one or two decent players, but all in all, it could have been worse.

yeah, ye could be playing us at home

anyway, back on topic, it is a very "meh" cup draw on the whole, hopefully we'll get a good home draw in the next round

Roar, I was just thinking. Of all the Cawk players that you sold to England in the past couple of seasons and the ones likely to, how many are actually products of Cork City's youth set up? None.

Doyle cut his teeth at Pats, Mooney is a Rovers acadamy product etc. O'Callaghan, Gamble, Bennett, O'Donovan, Healy all played overseas and returned home.

Its not very sustainable, is it?

that's a good point actually.

gamble played with citys youths, went to reading and came home

alan bennett has been with city most of his career, so he's been a product of the youth system,

the other players you mention, nothing to do with city's youth system

BUT, and this is the most important part, (for the players that have left for england) it's their form with cork city that got them noticed. it's at city where they flourished and became better players, players that ulitmately went on to play for ireland.

roy o'donovan was told he had no future in england. he came home, played with city, showed his class and earned a move to sunderland. so it's because of cork city that he's playing in the premiership, not any particular club's "youth system"

anyway, benno and joey played with city underage, so your statement is wrong.

You corkies crack me up. We are no more or less homeless than you are. Cawk rent someone elses stadium too remember....

Would have had Carrick away if we hadn't been knocked out by bloody Monaghan.:mad:

gimmick

Ive finally installed a homeless translator to my PC, so in response to the above post, City are anchor tenants at Turners Cross. We have played at the same ground for 20+ years. When last did Shams play at a ground for more than 2 games before being evicted for their "fans" causing trouble etc etc etc***???

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but by the statement above, does that make Man City, Ac Milan and Inter Milan all homeless as they don't actually own their grounds, but are anchor tenants?

***I can make sweeping statements which are wrong also

I just installed an idiot translator on mine.

I think you will find that I am saying Milan, Inter, Man City, Cork Village and Rovers are NOT homeless.

A lease is a lease is a lease. We rent a ground and are homeless, you rent a ground and are not. Thats Cork logic alright.
