Dave Ilnicki is on the bench, massive player for us, gives us height and athleticism in the centre, but fortunately we have Earl Murray who is probably as good as Dave and he will hopefully ensure we dont feel Daves loss quite as much....both are prem class players that we are lucky to have on the books

what class is kieran plant then, i thought he was decent but didnt realise he was that good

Dave has played in the Prem for years until this season and has won the prem league title. So shows how good he is, so will be a big loss.

Yeah Dave has played most of season with groin injury including the semi. So anything he did was not at full pace. I believe advance wanted him as a centre half but he wanted to be up front scoring goals! Not sure about your player tommy. Which one was he

just joking lad, thought kieran had a good game against dave in the semi, lost him for a class goal he scored though, experience i suppose, all teams need a player that has been there and done it, we will struggle to replace kieran next season as hes well into his 30s now and i dont think hes playing next year, mind you he scored the 1st in county final, so hes had a good swansong

Best way to retire that is mate!!!
I have a mate who made his last kick a winning goal in a cup final....still relives it 5 years later lol
You have some top players mate, thought your tall striker and left winger with the yellow boots were your best players....

Our supporters are going to be behind the dugouts in this game, the MDH supporters will be on the other side under shelter in case of rain….which is odd, coz most people from harborough have webbed fingers so are better equipped for the wet weather really!! ;-)

Cant wait, having banter on facefook with some of the MDH boys as well and its all adding to it, we will be going all out to win and desperate to win, but MDH seem absolutely spot on bunch of lads. I think the game will be very fast and expecting some good stuff...buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzing!!!

If you want to stand behind the goal and give me tips on what the striker is going to do next that would be excellent!

You have just given MDH the kiss of death, can you not remember what happened to Keegan when he said that? Uhoh.

...nope, can't say it - not even in jest!

can't guess who you'll be cheering on tonight...

Oh whistleblower i do wish ud introduce yourself tonite

Brilliant yet another NRI v Whistle Blower thread,
Whistle blower can you not comment on a thread without deliberately antagonising NRI?

No need to get drawn into it! At the end of the day both teams have done well to get there! Sunday football is all about games like these whoever wins!
Pretty sure it's not NRI Vs whistleblower so if people don't rise to it the thread won't get spoilt!

Looks like he was cheering on the losers tonite, New Road Inn won 1 - 0.

was it a good game helly??? i couldnt get down to watch, had the children

congratulations malc, widds and the rest of the n.r.i boys.....silver in the cabinet in first season is quality

Lads, thanks for the support. No. Idea what old numbnuts has said as i put him on foes list! But thanks for the motivation to our lads.
On to the game. Both teams played poor if i am honest but final is about the result. We are buzzing, first season trophy and worked hard for it tonight against a good team. Played in good spirit and great lads, rooting for them to win their league now. All down to fan club now!

Congratulations nri a fantastic strike to win the game. For me I couldn't be any prouder of my boys I thought they gave their all and who knows on another day perhaps the score line could have been different. Again my congratulations to NRI who as we know are a class outfit, I hope we proved we're mot far off that level ourselves

was a tense game, thought mdh had the better chances and looked better for most of it. thought the ref favoured nri a bit especially in the later stages (pass back?)
absolute class goal to win it though!

Game was tetchy. Neither team could get it down and play.

Great winner though - worthy to win a cup final. Well done NRI.

Mdh top team! Great set of lads that played there hearts out! Hope u win Ur league u deserve it!
