Suffce to say I can go on and on about what was a blatant injustice but I won’t dedicate an entire editorial to giving out about our great rivals as Rovers did about us some years ago. Our performance last week was one of the best in a while, we were treated to some beautiful football and some fne individual performances; one of our columnists described the tireless sprinting of Ross Tierney Premier Division as being ‘like Iniesta crossed with Jack Russell’ and in fairness that was an 1923/24, 1927/28, accurate description. It was great to see him get on the scoresheet too and 1929/30, 1933/34, hopefully he’ll continue as a goal-scoring midfelder. 1935/36, 1974/75, News that an extra €500,000 is being thrown into the Dalymount 1977/78, 2000/01, redevelopment pot courtesy of a UEFA Euro 2020 legacy project is 2002/03, 2008, 2009 certainly welcome. With Ireland surrendering our four-match hosting duties and for obvious reasons, it is quite comforting to know that the FAI Cup long-awaited project seems to be well on the way now. With the Shed roof 1927/28, 1934/35, set to be dismantled and scrapped this year, purely for safety reasons, it will 1969/70, 1975/76, be sad to see the Dalymount we know and love surrender what’s left of its 1991/1992, 2000/01, character and the wheels of change roll with greater intensity. The ultimate 2008 completion of the project will of course be very welcome and much needed, but, well, Dalymount is Dalymount, if you get me... League Cup Finally I’d like to weclome Bohemian FC Honorary Secretary Stephen 1974/75, 1978/79, 2009 Lambert to the programme team. Stephen will step into the breach left by the resignation of Chris Brien and his notes will keep us up to date on Setanta Cup what’s going on behind the scenes of the club. 2010 Leinster Cup 1895/95 - 2016: A record 32 titles Alan Bird, Editor LoI Shield 1923/24, 1927/28, Contact: [email protected] 1928/29, 1933/34, Editor/Production: Alan Bird 1938/39, 1939/40 Contributors: Tony Magner, Stephen Burke, Robert McDonald, Dan McSwiney, Ryan Clarke, Aidan Fitzmaurice, Paul Walsh, Declan Irish FA Cup Farrell, Gerard Farrell, Keith Long, Stephen Lambert 1907/08 Photos: Stephen Burke, Eddie Lennon, Martin Doherty, Conor Ryan, Peter O’Doherty, Sportsfile Dublin City Cup Sales: Gerry Juhel, Ray Larkin, Killian Molloy, Timothy Boland, Joe Collins, 1935/36 Cormac Hurrell, Oran Tully RIP Printed by: Just-Print.

Ruaidhri got his reign as Derry boss off to the best possible start with an away win at Sligo on Saturday and his team will come to Dalymount with great confdence and belief. Reecting on last week there is no doubt in my view that our performances deserved more with some good football in both games against the two Rovers and unfortunately a combination of some bad defending, poor fnishing and some dreadful offciating cost us. We need to be more clinical in both boxes, cutting out some basic errors defensively and taking our chances when they come our way. We have been guilty of missing some really guilt edge chances in the last two games and we must take those opportunities and become ruthless in front of goal. We will stick to our principles and we will not allow set-backs to set us back. We have a frm belief in what we are doing and we will do what we have always done by trying to move forward and to become better. Unfortunately a great game in Tallaght last Friday and a great advertisement for the league the case and we were punished on the double. was spoiled by a refereeing decision that saw On balance decisions tend to even us ultimately lose the game and also James themselves out over a season and maybe our Finnerty to a red card. We as a club must fght good fortune is yet to come. It is important this and although the mechanism for an appeal however to demand an improvement from our against a red card is only applicable in the offcials. They are a very important stakeholder case of mistaken identity, we feel that the card in our game and there are some really good awarded to James is unjust and needs to be guys doing a diffcult job but we must not be overturned. held to ransom by them. Friday’s decision was equally as frustrating Offcials in my opinion need to be more as the foul on Danny Grant in last year’s game accountable for their actions and the process in Tallaght which again we felt was a stonewall to which they are made accountable needs to penalty decision which went against us. I be more transparent. I know I am at risk of do not have selective memory so in terms ridicule but I cannot help but feel that if we are of balance it is important to note we have to improve all aspects of the professional game benefted from some decisions in previous in this country that all parties including offcials derby games, most notably when Lee Grace need to raise the bar. was sent off for a handball when the ball hit his face. My argument to that is that it only Enjoy the game became clear upon watching the replay back several times to realise the ball actually hit Lee on the face and not in fact the hand and it was almost impossible for the referee in real time to think otherwise. Friday’s decision was not like for like and the referee gets it wrong in my opinion and he obviously feels that James action was serious foul play to deny a Keith Long, Manager goalscoring opportunity.

FAI Cup Winners (2) Both teams lie in the bottom half of the table going into this game. Wanderers have drawn four and lost once 1990, 1999 while Cork have lost their last four league games. First Division Champions (3) Wanderers have had a bit of an injury crisis so far, 1985/86, 1995/96, 1999/00 particularly amongst the forwards, where Gary Shaw First Division runners-up (2) and Darragh Lynch have both been missed. Lynch has yet to feature this season. 1990/91, 1997/98 On the plus side it was great to see Charlie Gallagher Shield Winners (1) make his first team debut in Cobh last week. Charlie is 1995/96 the latest player to come through the Academy ranks at Bray to play for the first team.

  • Societal Insecurity Is Because of Demographic Issues
    SEEING SECURITY: SOCIETAL SECURITIZATION IN QATAR A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Government By Jennifer Carol Heeg, M.A. Washington, D.C. March 2, 2010 Copyright 2010 by Jennifer Carol Heeg All Rights Reserved i SEEING SECURITY: SOCIETAL SECURITIZATION IN THE GULF Jennifer Carol Heeg, M.A. Dissertation Advisor: Anthony Clark Arend, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation applies securitization theory to Qatari society, and develops a new regime type, the ―laissez faire autocracy.‖ Qatari society is securitized against the constructed threats of Western influence and South Asian migrant labor. Four advances to securitization theory are made in this non-Western, non-democratic context. First, this project deconstructs Western-centric notions of ―strong‖ and ―weak‖ states in the context of securitization. Second, securitization theory‘s privileging of the speech-act is subsumed into a larger discussion of action, because in states without full freedom of speech, actions often do speak louder than words. Third, the case study is an example of institutionalized securitization, because rigid ethnic/tribal conceptions of ―Qatari society‖ have led to a politics of exclusion with regards to migration and outside influence. Fourth and finally, securitization theory‘s focus on decision-making and audience is called into question; the power of decision-making is purposely vague in a laissez faire autocracy, and securitization is highly intersubjective. At a policy level, an understanding of society in Qatar as securitized, and informing the perceptions of migrant labor and Western ideas as the major security threats in the Gulf region, should inform policy alternatives for Gulf states and Western democracies.

  • UCD – Football and Study: by Brian King Friday, 17 April 2015 23:12
    UCD – Football and Study: by Brian King Friday, 17 April 2015 23:12 UCD – Football and Study: by Brian King My connection with UCD goes back to 1997/1998. Among the team of Jason Sherlock, Tony Mc Donnell, Robbie Mc Auley and co I was thrown. That team, for ‘the college’ enthusiasts who remember, included Ken Kilmurray, Ciarán Kavanagh, Mick O’Byrne, Robbie Dunne, Mick O’Donnell, Eoin Bennis, John Martin, Séamus Kelly, Wayne Fitzgerald, Clive Delaney, Ciarán Martyn. As well as being with the players, I remember the presence ofDr.TonyO’Neill, Theo Dunne, Alan O’Neill and kit man Larry Quinn. I would have been 11 and 12 at this time and it was with huge excitement I would be brought by my father Noel to the training sessions and to almost all of the match days. I had special access as a 12 year old, eager to collect the footballs, get the water for the lads and just delighted to be around, practicing free kicks on the hallowed Belfield Park pitch before and after games. 1 / 5 UCD – Football and Study: by Brian King Friday, 17 April 2015 23:12 That period was special for me, the group treated me extremely well, I remember been given a pair of Dublin GAA shorts by Jason Sherlock on one occasion travelling on the team bus to an away game. I remember the long trip to Turner’s Cross which resulted in a 2-1 win. I also remember a miserable day losing 5-1 in Belfield. I remember the talent of the players, Ken Kilmurray’s strength, skill and ability, Ciáran Martyn’s midfield presence, runs and knack of scoring, Mick O’Byrne threat, formidable Séamus Kelly in goal and Clive Delaney in defence.
