    He was very poor for that goal but he's been excellent for us so far (apart from his tendancy to kick the ball straight back to the opposition keeper).

    Clarkes attempt at saving the Dundalk winner in the league game was shocking as well.

    I'd take Rogers over Clarke any day. Clarke's a very good keeper, but Rogers dominates in the air the way Clarke doesn't, and his shot-stopping is generally first class. Anyway, I'm going to butt out now and leave this thread to folks whose teams are still in the competition. Good luck Monaghan.

    Rogers is a much better keeper. Clarke has already cost us a lot of points this season
    Here on a technicality.

    Speaking of keepers why didn't anyone besides Bohs try to sign Barry Murphy??

    Did something happen him since his early Shamrock days??

    Rodgers better than Clarke who is really poor, and he is going to cost Pats a lot more this season and next if they keep him. Strange that Pats could not find someone better than him in Dublin.

    The truth is there's no great LOI keeper. Clarke's in the top 3/4. Pats certainly aren't the Dublin club with goalkeeper issues...

    What's Brian Murphy at now? Still 3rd choice at Q.P.R?

    Hasn't been the same player ever since he was carted off in an ambulance after a head-on collision with Cretaro in a cup game with Sligo in Tolka in 2007. Then he fell out with Scully in 2008 and then MON in 2009. Before that, in 05, 06 and 07, he was the best keeper I had seen since the legend that was Tony O'Dowd.

    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.

    Think it was Faz Kudozovic that he ran in to.

    Good shotstopper and very mobile but never commanded his penalty area (too small). Decent keeper but not in top 10 of last 5/10 years at any stage.
    Probobly still better than what is at Tallaght now. Dont think Bohs tried to resign him. He finished his contract at the end of last season and was one of the last 'full time' contracts we had on the books (refused buy out previous season).

    Rogers seems to have more of the howler factor about him. I remember a particularly dreadful goal he conceded away against the Ukrainian (?) side in last season's Europa qualifiers. Then again he was understandably very worried about his bonus at the time.

    On a separate note, I just had a look at the betting odds for the replays this week. Bookies are quoting Douglas Hall at 8/1 to beat Wexford. I think Wexford should go through but that's a very high price IMO, Wexford only equalised through a peno with a few mins left today and are amateur themselves.


    I'm tempted by Douglass Hall +1.5 at close to EVS tonight. But Wexford team newS could make or break the bet

    I backed Douglas Hall at 8/1, too good to turn down. But I also put just enough on Wexford HT/FT to cover the bet.

    Once it's not a draw!

    Douglas currently 2-1 up after going a goal down. 20 minutes gone in that game. Also stuck a few quid on a Douglas/Turkey double tonight. Got 23/10 for Turkey to beat Bulgaria. They're also 1 up. Looking good

    Boll**ks. There goes that handy bit of cash. 3-2 Wexford in the last minute.

    I had completely forgotten about Barry Murphy not playing now. who is he playing for now?
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
