Blues and Longford was a very poor game. We never really got out out 1st gear but then again didnt have to! Horrible game to be at but a very important 3 points none the less.

Hey fair fecks to bohs them came with a plan and stuck to it. Job's a good one.

Just never thought I'd see a game where a 1-0 scoreline flattered the winners. In saying that, I dunno how yer man missed what should have been their second, after doing all the hard work.

before I started to drive I got a taxi from Carrick on Shannon to Athlone so I could go to our league cup match and then I got the supporters club bus home afterwards.. so I identify where ye are coming from..

PFFFFT that's nothing, I once went on a night out in Carrick on Shannon, I remember going into the nightclub at the back of the landmark hotel and waking up the next morning in Athleague, Co.Roscommon. I have family in Athleague but I was still half cut and didn't want to bother my Granny so I hoped in a taxi and headed off to Carrick, finally got there after an hours drive and it cost me a bloody fortune.
Moral of the story, at least ye guys got to see a match, I got accused of stealing some yokes knickers which could have easily been mistaken for a parachute.

Had to read this twice, "didn't want to bother my Granny" and "I got accused of stealing some yokes knickers"

As you didn't want to bother your granny I'm reading this as you ended up naked in a field and had to steal knickers from a clothes line.

One question, as a Finn Harps fan did the sheep give you permission?

true point but its a 40 mile drive from athlone to carrick on shannon which is an hrs drive considerin the poor roads.. Just making the point that I used to take taxis from work to matches when I couldnt get back to Longford in time to go on supporters club bus...The sligo lads won! I am not a patch on them! funny story you told just there!

Where are updates going tonight? Here or the "Title Decider (TM)" thread? The uncertainty!

Great to see a sold out LOI game with loads of atmosphere on TV.
