0-0 good result for us. Oriel Park has never been a happy hunting ground for us. Need to build on that against UCD at home next week

Thought you were full value for that tonight, you`re no 6 (bald head guy) was excellent in m/f, clear man of the match for me, but what a terrible game to watch. We had one single shot on target. The game was a just a dreadful standard. But thats football and we`ve moved to the top spot (hardly deserved) but there you go.

Well done Galway - a very well organised performance in a game we fully expected to win.

Shocking first half at the cross. Derry were the better team but their goal was a horrible deflection. Out of nowhere we grabbed an equaliser just before half time.

Second half was the most entertaining football we've seen in a while. We completely dominated with plenty of chances but couldn't convert. Disappointing but would have been delighted with a draw beforehand, especially with Rogers out.

Sets up our game vs Waterford nicely for next week

[MariborKev]

Agree with that summation micls.

Duggan ran the show in the second half and it was a great save from Doherty to block Cummins. I wouldn't say there were many clear cut chances for your lot, but youse definately ran the show. We haven't won in the League at the Cross since 2000.

[Ciaran W]

We were all over them for most of the game even look at the reports on aertel and extratime

Great win for rovers. . Twigg is just amazing

He's definitely one to watch alright ;)

A very scrappy game with Bradley, Kavanagh and Dennehy not doing magnificent, while Danny Murphy continues outstanding performances..

Twigg was almost poor all game, but then came the one chance...

The world and his mother knows that Twigg is going to be very little in open play, link up etc but sure nobody cares when he scores so many goals.

Danny Murphy is a great signing for ye

Danny murphys performance tonight was one of the single best performances ive ever seen by any player in any match. . He won absolutly everything !

UCD 1:2 SRFC
UCD had the better of the first half and had a few chances to take the lead. Shamrock Rvs had a better spell in the second half, Rusty double substition on 72' wasn't a positive move, Killer off for Creevy and Shane Fitz for the subperb Wilson. The subs left us with Chris Mulhall as most forward player. Although that didn't stop Brian Shortall, playing as left back, move forward and put a screamer of a ball past the post at the death.

As Dwayne Dwilson was playing LSL Senior 1B last year and has been a huge success in a top six team in the Premier Division this year it surely (sourly) means that the 4th tier of LSL is equivalent to top half of the Premier Div.

One record was broken at the UCD Bowl Stadium last night. The most quietest Away FANS for Airtricity League game. Take a bow FANS of Bohs and Bray and Galway and Sporting and Drogheda and Pats.

No you weren't. For the last 20 minutes of the first half, we were well on top. Rovers were the better side in the second half (but hardly all over us) and Twigg took his goal well but I don't think Rovers could feel too hard done by if it had ended 1-1.

In the end Twigg was the difference IMO.

[JC_GUFC]

Does anyone have the result of Rockmount v Avondale in the FAI Cup?

Yeah def agree. maybe if UCd had a bit more belief they might have got a result?
Why were the Shams fans so quiet?

[Dunny]

Sligo beat Drogs 6-0 also Drogs had a man sent off.

[Ciaran W]

Great to amond getting a hat trick :D hes a brilliant player

[sligo23]

We are unbelievable. There musta been 30 passes leading up to our second goal. Drawda were all over place, no confidence and no organisation.

[forza rovers]

Richie Ryan's goal has to be contender for goal of the season.drogs are rubbish.their fans weren't impressed either

[Jicked]

Why were the Shams fans so quiet?

They were playing UCD.

[De Town]

Go on Padraig Amond! Have him backed to be top scorer this season @33/1! Let's hope he keeps banging them in :)

[Poor Student]

:eek: Was this your first ever football match??

In fairness Murphy put in a very strong performance. He won almost everything against Wilson, a player a lot bigger than him, although one must take into account Wilson is still a very raw player who has just stepped up from 4th tier LSL.

[celticV3]

Great win tonight, frustrating season so far so it was nice to get a good result and see some end product to our nice play.
Can't wait to see the replay of our second goal tonight. The ball went around the pitch to nearly every player before being nicely slotted away by Amond.

[forza rovers]

The bunch that were in mooneys after the game were in great spirits!these were the one that got the bus down they waited for the team to come back out for their warm down and started chanting 'your not fit to wear the shoort' after awhile they tried to get on the pitch after them

[Martinho II]

did you put much dosh on him de town?

[De Town]

did you put much dosh on him de town?

Ah no just small stakes tbh. Would be a nice winner though! :) Think I need Gary Twigg to get a few injuries between now and the end of the season though to have a chance.

[pineapple stu]

Dunno if it's that simple really. We're playing counter-attacking stuff, so our defending (which has been superb most of the season) is arguably hindering our chances going forward. Attack more, we leave more gaps at the back. More attacking doesn't necessarily mean more success; ask Kevin Keegan.

As well as that (and at the risk of sounding like Dave O'Leary), last year was the first year in senior football for many of our players. This year is the first in the Premier for those same players. There's a learning curve. Wilson on the wing was fairly out of his depth I thought; Killer, Dave Mc and Muller haven't been scoring as freely or getting as much space as last season. That's not to say they're suddenly bad players - just that the players are still learning the game, and in particular learning that bit of guile and movement that'll create more chances. We've more points already from the second round of matches than the first, which I think is proof that we're going the right direction. That's all we can really ask at this stage.

[Ciaran W]

Anyone know when bluebell are playing pike rovers ?

[tallaghthoop]

Great to amond getting a hat trick :D hes a brilliant player

Will prove to be one of MON'S biggest mistakes, Podge should have never have been let go and our squad selections so far this season proves it, we had no goalscoring strikers till 3 weeks ago when Twiggy returned, we depend on Twiggy far to much, if he picks up another injury this season our title hopes will be dashed. We have no other natural goalscorers in the squad. Best of luck Podge hope you bang 25 goals in this season and show the arrogant thick O'Neill what he is missing.

Who wouldnt be for Bennys 40th birthday party!!!

Podge was offered a contract by MON but he rejected it.

[tallaghthoop]

Podge was offered a contract by MON but he rejected it.

Thats pretty common knowledge, but the terms of the contract are not. And lets just say no self respecting player would have signed it.

So say i offer you 100quid a week.....i was an offer wasn't it

[placid casual]

your a sad sad *bohs/pats fan .:rolleyes:

Yes thats a contract offer.

[stovelid]

It was more to do with not being guaranteed regular football. Which club members would have heard at the AGM. If they were actual supporters of the club, let alone members.
