I reckon we're going to finish 7th which I think would qualify us for Europa conference. We're going to need a bigger squad.

No, we'll "bottle it" (I don't agree with this phrase but it's what the soundbites go for) and finish 8th. Our run-in is too tough.

I think we will finish 6th. Emery seems to have it all in hand.

Would be nice if we had a bit more depth to call upon. Who'd have thunk?

Of course, being an adopted Northsider. Maybe one or two in The Hut as we make our way into town.

I believe so, I've only been in it once after a very messy day watching Ireland v England in the rugby in 2001.

The Confession Box is a good pub (not been to Briody's) as is the nearby Cleary's on Amiens St. Let's hope we all get a chance to update our reviews. :)

I used to like The Long Stone as well, but think that's been knocked down now.

Would take the Conference League to be honest, as I think it is a tournament we could potentially win. 

Also, with the standard being a bit lower, we would be able to rotate the squad a bit more in the earlier stages.
