    No, that's Harpo. On his own for a reason.

    Been super. But has still has his two or three brain farts. If he gets those out of his game, he's back in England.

    Got to rue the penalty. I know Cork have been better since about the 20 minute mark, but between O'Donnell's performance (which we're used to) and Cork being wasteful in front of goal, we could have gotten something with eleven.

    Awful to lose to a goal like that but when you're under so much pressure someone is generally going to lose concentration at some stage

    Got the ball maybe? A lickle snick?

    He had his brain farts earlier; hoped that was it.

    Gained two goals on Bray. Played ok. Ayman back. Can't really complain much. Same as most of our other tv appearances - played well, decent game overall, lost.

    Mark O Sullivan is on fire. I tried telling Bluewhitearmy and Marinobohs a few months back he was the top Intermediate player for a few years now he's playing in LOI and is THE find of the season.

    His namesake that plays for us was FAI Intermediate player of the year for the season before he signed for us and is about to become our "all time" top scorer (LOI days anyway) after just a season and a half. Not just his goals either his all round game has come on a ton. Definitely some top players to be found at that level.

    UCD keeper had an amazing game, but the most important thing for us was the 3 pts.

    Thought we were very attacking, the fact that Billy Dennehy played left full shows the intention, although I'll be glad when he's back in midfield cos he's not natural there.

    We're now 9 pts clear of Pat's with same number of games played.

    Here's an interesting one, Harps have only been beaten once in the last 10 games in all competitions, a 1-0 league defeat to Longford. In those 10 games there's been six clean sheets, but only 9 goals. We're fast becoming the 0-0 draw specialists, having two in a row now. Christ, if we could score goals we'd be flying.

    This is some run Cork have been once, since losing 4-0 and 3-2 to Dundalk & Pats they have won 8 of their next 9, impressive. I didn't realise Pats were so far behind, we will also go 9 clear of them with same games played if we win tomorrow night.

    All roads pointing towards 1st Aug for the Cork v Dundalk game but Pats will still have European ambitions when they visit a week later, they could still put a league title challenge in, but the gap is looking quite big, and against two other contenders.

    Rovers had a good win last night and are not out of contention, but I wouldn't see them as challengers. Maybe I could be wrong.

    Folk need to remember that Cork were unlucky to loose that 3-2 game to Pats as well. Great story with M O Sullivan, and an example that people are not always too late if they feel they want to move up a level or try something new in life. They should give it a go if the opportunity is there. Good to see Callaghan back managing in the LoI as well.

    On Harps I won a few bob on a bet for a draw, as Galway are still some distance from being a good team and did not deserve to be at the odds they were on. Keating must be a loss, but has he scored that much for Harps this year? One thing I have noticed (only 2 games mind) is the good team spirit they have, which I suppose comes a lot from the manager.

    Had said all week that it was going to be 0-0, terribly disappointed I didn't put a few quid on it now.

    Keating is a massive, massive loss to Harps. A large part of the season was our only threat up front with McHugh and McCarron both struggling with injury and he got 6 goals in 14 appearances I believe. Between the four remaining strikers at the club, Kevin McHugh, Sean McCarron, Paul McVeigh and young Darragh Black there's a total of three goals. It's hard to see where our goals are going to come from, but I wouldn't completely discount our chances of grabbing a play-off spot yet.

    2-0 Davy again. He's now our highest ever goalscorer. Well since proper records were kept from '84 onwards anyway which is as good as ever!

    Goals here

    3-0 now. Sully hat trick, for anyone who's interested!

    Lovely goal he started and finished it

    Recorded the game even though was at it and just watched it earlier and couldn't believe when I seen that at the end.. surely they could of brought Sullivan out instead of nults or even have them both there but to say give that to mark for us is just comical
