Sligo Rovers 1-1 Finn Harps

[Sam_Heggy]

Sligo Rovers 1-1 Finn Harps

It's official, Paul Deering is THEE worst referee in Ireland. Some appauling decisions.

The biggest shocker was when Conor Mcnulty (sligo's right back) clashed with the Sligo keeper with Blain Curtis nearby, the ball broke and Josh Mailey tapped it in. That should have been 2-1 yet Deering gives a free out and books Curtis for "a reckless challenge", the Sligo folk were even embarrassed at that decision.

He booked 4 Harps players and no Sligo lads, there wasn't a bad challenge in the game.

It's not the first time he has been pretty sh!t towards us.

He booked 4 Harps players and no Sligo lads, there wasn't a bad challenge in the game.Not really any bad challenges, but there was a lot of moaning and foul language by Harps players. Can't really complain when you get booked for it.

[sligoman]

Derry 5-0 Sligo Rovers.

[Sam_Heggy]

what's happened to the Sligo side? 2 big defeats in the last 2 games.

[sligoman]

what's happened to the Sligo side? 2 big defeats in the last 2 games.Personally, I think they've been punching above their weight all season and now it's starting to show. Couple of good Korean's gone too and a striker that thinks he's too good for this level.

I'll let cf1989 comment on todays game as he was there but he said Derry had a few 1st teamers today and totally outplayed Rovers.

[TheBoss]

This was the Derry Team:

Eugene Ferry
Caoimhín Bonner
Emmet Friars (Gareth Breslin)
Thomas McMonagle
Barry McNamee
Ruairí Harkin (Seanan McColgan)
James Henry
Michael McCrudden
Tony McNamee
David McDaid
Stephen McLaughlin (Matthew Harkin)

Stephen McLaughlin scored 4 Goals and Michael McCrudden with the other.

[colinf]

in fairness derry are really strong, most of that team that beat us also beat UCD in the cup away 3-0 the monday before. really good team and will go and win the group definatly, and id be suprised to see a better team in the other group.

we had a great start, unbeaten in the first 6 games, and have lost 3 in a row now, all is not lost though, 2nd spot can still be got, so hopefully we'll get back on track next tuesday i think it is in dundalk

[nigel-harps1954]

Theres a fair bit of senior experience in that side alright. How's Stephen McLaughlin getting on up in Derry? Cracking player with Harps anyway.

Is it true that Dykes has let the 2 coaches from the A League side go?
Perhaps part of the reason for the sudden drop in form?

[colinf]

the first team experience makes a big difference at this level alright. when you look at our game against bohs, they had the likes of lopez, forrester, mcevoy and burke all having played first team footy and were the best players on the pitch that day. against derry on sunday mclaughlin got 4, mcdaid was a constant threat and set up 3 i think. very solid at the back with mcmonigle and friars who started V ucd in the cup, ruadhri harkin a regular in the first team squad aswell and mccrudden was brilliant on sunday too, he played in the cup v ucd aswell. they have been playing together for a few years now from about u16 level up and thats what lacks a bit maybe in our squad.

the team has done really well and can hopefully pick up again and finish off strongly this season

Fanad 3-0 Harps

It was 1-0 in the 89th minute. We had 4 players in the back 5 playing their 7th game in 7 days. I've never seen so many injuries in my life, I think there is something like 12 injured at present.

Nah none of the Sligo lads were cleared yet. They will most likely make their debuts against Sligo in Finn Park.

[LukeO]

Anyone know the Derry-Bohs score/scorers?

Also, sorry if this is elsewhere on the thread/forum, but is there anywhere you can get an accurate/up-to-date table?

I'm told the one on Wikipedia isn't right (?) and the LoI site hasn't been updated in nearly two weeks.

[littlebray]

As far as I can make out the table on Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_A_Championship is as up-to-date as anything here - I think it's missing a few results, but so are we ...

[Sam_Heggy]

Harps v Sligo game moved to Tuesday night at 7.30pm in Finn Park.
