    Drogheda Away

    Gonna predict another score draw in Hunky Dory Park which I'd be delighted with. The couple of goals v Longford should give our boys a bit more confidence. Biggest worry I'd have is our keeper who I thought was an accident waiting to happen again on Saturday night.

    I'd take a point as well, an away goal and a draw would do & might steady things a bit after the two early beatings and the goal difference.

    1-1 in Drogheda tonight. According to Twitter updates looks like we were very unlucky not to take all 3 points against 10 man Drogs. Ex Sunderland player Sean Thornton with a late free kick. Pity we didn't hold out for the 3 points but a lot of positives it would seem. We seemed to create plenty of chances, keeper and back four seemed comfortable at least from what can be ascertained from Twitter updates and most importantly Russell has now steadied the ship. The team seem to be playing for him and we seem well capable of picking up points. Keep this up and there's no reason we cannot pull away from Bray and look at the season in a more positive light.

    The extratime updates painted a different picture, with Limerick offering little goal threat and the ten men of Drogheda having more of the ball throughout. But, a decent point, nearly three. Still winless, but a bit brighter about things too. On the field anyway.

    Pretty poor stuff.

    Drogheda looked a terrible side and they were a terrible side with ten men for most of the game and nine men for a good ten minutes of it.

    But we never really controlled the game and I cant remember us creating anything clear cut.

    Drogs had more of the ball undrrstandably dropped off completely when they went down to nine (Thornton had to go off injured and they had no subs left) but we never kicked on.

    Dean Clarke is a decent player.

    Ian Turner was awful again and needs dropping.

    Big chance to take a big three points missed.

    Onwards to Pats and Dundalk....
