    The 4-2 against Derry is below from YouTube; the double save on 56 minutes is up there with the best save I've ever seen in LoI (it's not that easy to see on the video unfortunately - we all know what the view in the Brandywell is like)



    He saved a penalty there the following season as well.

    But he does have a clanger a game in him, and I can well see how that could affect his confidence. I was only saying to Gary Spain on Friday that UCD might be well suited to him - no home fans to get on his back over stuff like that.

    Edit - you're right, it was a 4-3 win for us. Greg Fleming was in nets for Galway apparently. Never heard of him! Seems he's back in the Scottish leagues now, with Ayr.
    Hmm, Winn was on the bench. I've been blaming him for the performance for all these years!

    Edit: a 9 minute video! No chance am I watching that!

    56 minutes into the game.

    Derry 1-1 Drogheda - Full time score.

    I only post this, simply because the greatest thing that could happen this season is going to happen.




    Kenny Shiels is going to sit in the away dugout in United Park.

    4-0 to City in a scrappy enough game in the rain in Cork. Highlights were a cracking finish from Holohan for number 2 and a ridiculous scramble that somehow didnt result in a goal at 4 nil. Seriously, watch the highlights. The entire (666 of us) stadium laughed at the end.

    That was a brilliant goal from holohan, looking forward to seeing the highlights. But hopefully they show that scramble it was absolutely comical how it didn't end up in the goal

    Cracking game in the Bowl tonight.

    1-0 up after 3 minutes. 2-0 up after half an hour. Bray have a goal ruled out for handball - a bad call I think - and we go up the pitch and make it 3-0 before half-time.

    Bray somehow equalise by the hour mark. Then we miss a peno before going 4-3 ahead after an own goal.

    We hit the bar, Bray hit the post, we scramble off the line and Bray have another goal ruled out.

    Most enjoyable game since - well, I guess the Euro games really.

    Honest to God I'd have liked this a 1000 times if that were an option. Comedy gold!

    I see Mark Rooney was an unused sub for Bluebell - another complete blast from the past from them (ex UCD, Drogheda, Dublin City, Pat's and Shels)

    Ah, he will not be happy with this at all.

    To be fair to Drogheda, they played well enough and held their lead for ages. We were poor now, especially after Drogs scored. Patterson missed another penalty, and didn't take the second. I'd question whether it was a penalty or not either. We were lucky.

    Harps 1-0 down and down to ten men against Crumlin. Only around 150 at the match. Barry Molloy sent off. We've completely gone to f*ck and are playing 4-5-1 at home against non-league opposition.

    2-1 to Ramblers, made a bit more hard work than it needed but decent win with about 5 or so players out. No more than about 170 at it. Apparently a lot of communion/confirmation/barmitzvah parties on today.
    Don't understand how the Fai Cup is the poor relation nowadays, once it represented one of your bigger gates of the season, not any more sadly.

    Terrible attendance considering Crumlin would have brought a few I would imagine,Crumlin were very sharp in the Aviva in the Intermediate final and the result not totally unexpected as Crumlin went from 9/1 to 4/1 during match day.

    What's gone wrong, the wheels seem to have suddenly fallen off the wagon?
    I thought after the win against Derry at the start that Harps may be the surprise packet this year.
