Derry City council ( Crowd money grabbers with no brains ) have confirmed that the Brandywell will have a reduced capacity of 770 seats on the Southend Park Stand until further notice. Part of it has failed a H&S inspection by Sports NI. Why do they announce this on the day of the season. Unbelievable !!!!!!. Council in Derry are a crowd of muppetts they havent got a clue

Drogs-UCD was probably the worst game I've seen. Drogs have to be down there with the kind of quality of Mervue and Salthill and UCD are only marginally better. I predict a long season for both sides.

What an event and action packed game in Finn Park.
2 Red Cards, the worst referee EVER, Pat Scully being his usual ars€hole self, 4 goals, great atmosphere and my throat is wrecked.

Limerick were far better side in 1st half but we were more clinical, 1st Division beware, Kevin McHugh is in absolutely superb shape. He will terrorize defences this season.
Second half Harps were the better side playing some lovely ball.
Mark Forker was sent off after he clearly won the ball, now, unfortunately his momentum carried him into Sheehan and injured the lad but it was never even a foul never mind a red.
Harps also had a fantastic chance where McHugh was cleaned out of it, the ball broke to Tommy Bonner one on one with Ryan surely 3-1. nope, the ref called it back and only booked the defender. He didn't blow the whistle until Tommy was on the edge of the Limerick box.
Stephen "spits at the scumbag" O'Flynn then gets a red card for head-butting Packie Mailey.
Limericks 2nd goal was also bizarre, Tommy Bonner and O'Leary went in for a 50-50 header, a header which Tommy won before they clashed heads. The ball was with our right back Doherty when the ref blew up to allow for treatment.
The re-start was a contested drop ball which Limerick got the break and scored.
Harps created chances but in the end the general opinion was that we were robbed. We should have been 3-1 up with 11 players, yet ended up 2-2 with 10.

New season, and probably the worst referee performance of the season already.

Funny, do a poll at any LOI match and they'd probably call him a load of shi*e too.

Ropey performance from the Rovers today and Dundalk were the far superior team while they had 11 men and up until half time. I take back my reservations about Finn - he was quality in the centre with McCabe and O'Neill also impressive. We looked like a team that hasn't played much together but definitely got the quality there once it clicks. Disappointed not to see Sheppard (was he on the bench?) and look forward to getting a look at Kilduff and O'Donnell when they return.

Rovers were deserved winners in the end, as you would expect with an extra man advantage for nearly 70 minutes. Poor mistake from Cherrie and red card was correct call. Based on the first 20 minutes (maybe even the first 45 minutes) Dundalk were defo the better team and must rue the failure to convert the chances. Apart from Cherries red card, poor keeping from replacement Murphy for the 1st Rovers goal, and a moment of madness from Hawkins for the 2nd one.

Impressed with O'Neill, Twigg and Finn, although Gary McCabe carried on his diving from last season (he really deserves to be in the same side as Killian Brennan). For Dundalk good stuff from Jayo and Dean Bennett, while Kearns again showed glimses of why he is going to be a premier and international star.

Disappointed with the result, but encouraged by the performance especially when it was 11 v 11

Agree completely on Kearns. The first half was boring for long spells and I took to just watching his movement and he looks like he's going to be a super, super player. I think he'll learn everything he can at a good footballing Dundalk team and try again in the Championship next year or the year after.

Pats had it all too easy in Galway on a glorious night for football. I thought we did really well in the first half, but I don't think Pats were flattered by the result. Daryl Kavanagh was brilliant all the way through and probably deserved a goal. McFaul cruised through the whole match and seems to always play brilliantly in Terryland.

For us I thought Shaun Maher & Shaun Kelly had great first halfs & Bobby Ryan did his best too but Murphy's goal coming so early in the second half stunned us & McMillan's so soon after was a knockout blow.

Long road ahead, but plenty to build on from the first half display.
