Great set of results for us
Only a point apiece difference from 2nd to 5th now. Great nights results!
For once maybe someone will call me "sir" without adding "you're making a scene."
UCD were well worth the win over us - they were the better side for nearly the entire game and could have had a couple more but for two great saves by Rogers. I wasn't convinced North was offside, but we would have been flattered by a point.
Peers was badly missed. Meant Ventre played centre-half. He's simply not a good centre-half - doubt the goal would have gone in with Peers there - and was badly missed in midfield, where there was no bite (Dillon had a shocker and things improved a bit when Lynch came in).
Dykes had a fine game considering his age, but was caught out for the goal with the ball coming down his wing minutes after he replaced Davoren.
On the bright side, other results limited the damage, and I'd rather have lost that than a six-pointer against Shams or Pats. We need cover at centre-back, though.
"Even if the wind stops to blow
Even if the sea ceases to flow
Even if the sun ceases to rise
The name of Sligo Rovers will shine and shine forever like the morning star glittering in the sky."
We should have moved Keane into centre back and put Boco or Raf to right back. When McGuinness was injured earlier on we lost a lot in midfield by moving Ventre back in there and the same happened tonight. Was very surprised when I saw the way we lined out. Number 1 priority in July is to sign cover for centre back.
UCD were excellent tonight. Fully deserving their win and only for Rogers they would have been 3 or 4 up going into the last 20 minutes. I think they just ran out of steam for the last 20 or so and we could have knicked a totally undeserved point in the end.
Corry and their number 8 (not sure who he was) were outstanding.
Other results softened the blow certainly
Yeah, agree with that. I was very impressed with UCD once again.
Played us off the park.
Can't believe we won tonight. Going into half time with a man sent off for something that happened down the tunnel allied with current form, I really thought we were in for a thrashing. After all his injuries it's great to see Marc Griffin scoring again. Even tonight he wasn't started because he isn't match fit, but going by the updates he made a huge difference when he came on.
Cheers lads. Yeah, felt it was a well deserved victory, we didn't just nick the points, we dominated possession and controlled the game for long periods. Obviously Sligo weren't on top of their game and suffering from the absences but it was a very satisfying performance, we moved the ball really well and the midfield interplay was lovely to watch. If we could carry this performance into the next few matches we could move towards midtable.
Also while we're continuing the with UCD love in thought the pitch was in great knick.Originally Posted by Poor Student
Big crowd up from Sligo I thought.
Was looking forward to singing "top of the league we're having a laugh" back at ye if we had somehow made a comeback!!
Sava f*cked up for Drogheda tonight.
You've got no fans.
It gets more sickening than that. For the first time in my UCD supporting history an opposition fan actually commented to me that we had good numbers in our support! With Pineapple Stu out of the country Sligo/UCD relations seem to be at an all time high! But yes, Sligo had a great crowd for a Monday night.
But it was an outstanding finish by Horgan at the same time. Your goal was from a defensive mistake by us.
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
Some set of results tonight with the top 3 being unable to beat the bottom 3 with only one point being picked up.

A Championship: 4 years - 8 first teams - 0 financially ruined. First Division '14: 7 first teams.
Opportunity lost for new clubs/regions to join the LoI family.
Never dull moment eh!
Pineapple is the only reason I go to Rovers games, seeing him 3/4 times a year
Mons defended well, if a bit desperately in the last 20 minutes, but neither side deserved even a point for the first 65 minutes where there were no saves made. How Greene hit the post I don't know and Bennion pulled off a great save from Sives.
Hancock was an embarrassment.

Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
