Derry City v Shelbourne

[marcoloco]

Start of season prediction - 3rd
Current position- 3rd

Higgins is conservative and his tactics negative. If you don’t agree with that basic fact then we’re wasting our time here…

Yesterday usual boring dross. Teams may sit in for last 5 and soak pressure but to not control the game with 20 and added time to go and the best squad in the league is naive. He should be gone by now but the way the fixtures are lined up he’s getting the right sides at the right times to take the p off. No one notice how first set of fixtures are playing out exact same way in the second set? I.e. bore draw Galway bore draw shels easy win Waterford. Nothings improved time to wake up I’m afraid before we’re 7 points down by end of the month. 25 in 14 games will win you f all, rovers will pick up.

15 games played.

0 wins against teams in the top half.

Defeats to Rovers, Bohs, Galway.

Were still near the top and should sustain a challenge given the drop in standard from Rovers this season and given the size of our budget… but easy to see where improvement is needed.
