UCD keeper booked for handball outside the box. Interesting call. Came for a cross, caught it, but fell outside. Both sides have sub keepers - Harps' is getting married, ours got injured in the warm up.
Free well over.

Double sub for UCD at half-time; it's a forward and a winger for a defensive mid and a full-back. I think we're playing an attacking 5-3-2 down one side, and a regular 4-4-2 the other side. It's like a 5-3-2 with a stroke or something.

Second booking (for a different player) for Harps for not retreating ten from a free kick. We weren't going to take it quickly until they stopped us from taking it quickly though. Didn't think you had battles of wits in the First Division.

Dedication to the cause - Robbie Creevy loses a boot, but still tracks back and clears with his sock a good 20 seconds later.
Still 1-1; Harps defending in numbers but dangerous on the break.
must be so frustrating being a Pats fan this season. Inconsistency is killing them.

Bootless bootless Creevy? I've been thumped for that one.
Petering out to a 1-1 draw here. Our passing is awful; Harps aren't getting enough forward to trouble us, but are probably more likely to score.

just from extratime mate - they go from thrashing us to losing to Drogs. Just typical of the weird run of results theyve had all season.

UCD offside for the 174th time this half.
Full time 1-1. Two points dropped, but not enough done to earn them.

sorry - totally misread your post... Bohs not playing well by all accounts but getting the job done.

to be fair drogs form is pretty good (excl. cup game). 12 points from last 21.
Beat bray, cork and Pats. Only loss (in last 7 games) against Bohs in 4th min extra time.
We are no longer bottom on goal difference :) SAid it after the first few games that I thought it would tkake a few games for the new side to gel etc but I felt (and still feel) that Mathews will keep us up - he deserves a lot of praise for tis efforts thus far on the resources he has.
Behan pulls one back for the corkies.

I saw the end of the Cork game in Maileys after the match. What happened to justify the 7 mins added on? Nothing seemed to have been mentioned in the analysis.

From the (admittedly brief) highlights I saw, I just assumed the ref was trying to give the Corkies a way back into the points.

To be fair-it was probably deserved. Duggan is a good player but he can be a bit tapped at times. He'd remind you of a young Joey in all honesty.
Dundalk were awful in our game-with ten men for most of the game we pushed them back into their own half and the only tactic from them was to launch it in the air for Flash to try and run onto it. I missed the penalty (was selling tickets) but the second goal was a mistake by Connor, who decided to sprint out of his goal for no real reason and got lobbed. Our first half performance was on a par with Derek Mountfield's last game in charge (for anyone who doesn't remember that one-we lost 4-0 and Mounty got sacked at half time), but the second half (when Doolin decided to bring on O'Donnel, Behan and Faz-why they all were on the bench anyway is a mystery.....) was much improved. Denis took his goal very well. We still didn't create any clear-cut chances really mind you. Dundalk were awful but considering how truly bad we were in the first half, they probably deserved something from the game.

Liam Burns went off on a stretcher after Pat Sul (I think) fell on him....didn't know Pat Sul could do that much damage-looks a light fella!:D Chris Turner had earlier recieved treatment before being subbed off. Hopefully only two knocks but I fear Burns might be out for awhile, didn't look so good.

It's always interesting to hear the viewpoint of opposition fans for a match you have both watched. Both teams took it in turns to be poor - Cork in the first half and Dundalk in the second half. With a numerical advantage and two goals up at half time, there was no excuse for Dundalk surrendering territory and so much of the ball in the second period. Behan, Faz and to a lessor extent O'Donnell certainly made a difference when introduced and it is to Corks credit that they forced the game in the second half, even if no clear cut chances were created, Behans excellent goal aside.
But the game was won and lost in the first half, with Dan Connor being culpable for both goals. Shane Duggan should also hold his hand up in the Cork dressing room for getting himself foolishly sent off (ref had no option). Dundalk were far from awful in this key period and I thought totally dominated the exchanges, irrespective of the two goals.
I think most neutrel observers would agree that Dundalk deserved their win, and seem to be turning a corner with 3 wins on the spin.
Greatly looking forward to the candystripes visit to Oriel in a fortnight
