I am occupied Sat AM, so post the match thread now, to be sure all is well.
Madge has got up early to raise our spirits.
May the Pope bring us home.
Up the Clarets

Would have thought Long more likely to play RB than Tarky. Also maybe award in midfield rather than moving Taylor from LB.

Afternoon all from a dry windless day in Derry, unusual for this part of the world. Good to see Ward back, will be interesting to see if Vydra will have a point to prove to SD. Expecting a good win and the positive vibes to continue.UTC

Hi all. What's the thinking:
win the Cup but relegated or stay up and lose today?
I never get big on the cup until QFs so I'll take staying up.

That eleven plus the bench should have enough to see off a league 1 side,but this is Burnley in the cup.
Be nice if Vydra could bag today,and good for Defour to get a run-out,i doubt he'll last the 90,especially if we get a couple of goals ahead.
Main thing is no more injuries.

The lads look a lot happier and up for it.
Platonic wink from Hendrick to the attractive brunette in the tunnel. Lets hope he can score on the pitch today.
Really good to see Pope, Ward, Defour and Vydra back in the lineup.
