All change in tallaght after Rogers red card drennan scored the resulting penalty and has now scored a second

Galway 3-1 Limerick, 5 mins to go.
Big win for ourselves in Drogheda tonight.. not looking past longford on Monday but dundalk next week is going to be massive.. poor cabo coughing up a late equalizer
That was a serious blow dealt by Dundalk to the Tallaght team's title ambitions and goal machine McMillan scores again.
FT Galway 3-2 Limerick
Really enjoyable second half in the Bowl tonight. Waterford weren't up to much, but it was our first really promising performance of the season. Some of the players are starting to find their feet at this level, and get that bit of extra confidence, and it's showing. With no-one really stamping their authority on the division, I reckon we could be a good bet for the play-offs, which I had more or less ruled out after losing three of the first four games.
Doubt its a serious blow. First big test for Dundalk (Pats 9 men doesnt count) and we coughed up a 2 goal lead, even if the 2nd was against 10 men. In the end it was a point gained. Assuming we get the form guide result against Galway on Monday then Friday night really will be a corker!
ridiculous pun!!
Two mistakes from the centre halves cost us the game. Let the ball bounce and got caught. We should have held out after going two up but did well to get a draw out of it.
It's a rare sight to see the guards and stewards in front of the home fans to keep them off the pitch but that's rovers for ya.
Rovers gifted Duns 2-0 goals a minute either side of ht having shaded proceedings until then.
Rodgers then made a dumb tackle to give away peno and red card.
Drennan then destroyed Boyle and finished spectacularly . Rovers should of gone onto win but Drennan missed an absolute sitter .
Overall when 11 v 11 Dundalk looked a pale shadow of last year and Towell was very poor.
Based on this evening I think Rovers have a more than decent chance of winning the league as we're a work in progress and will get better as the season progresses - big question is will Dundalk rekindle their swagger of last year- with Cork in the mix think we're heading for a decent 3 way title battle with Pats maybe as well.
Highlight of tonight was the way Drennan celebrated his second goal in front of the away section- he's starting to look like Twigg v 2- he can finish as well as him and celebrates with the same enthusiasm ,
So cracking game and also a decent crowd, I'd est. 4,800
Don't agree with most of that. Thought we were the better side and deserved to be ahead. Before the sending off it looked like it could be a route.
It was a gift that got Rovers back into it when they looked buried. Second was a gift as well. Rovers looked clueless after that and I thought we held out comfortably.
Oh and the highlight of the game was Drennan blazing over from 6 yards, perfect karma
