Rovers could be playing there now with Bray gone home and the score would be 0-1. Well deserved away win.

1-0 Bohs, Heary. We are all over UCD.
You want to be careful of taking opinions straight from the Bohs forum stu! Not the most balanced of viewpoints. Ger had one save to make before the goal went in (on the stroke of half time). Your second was after a horrible defensive slib, possibly due to the awful pitch. Hardly "all over" us. Ye were worth the win no doubt, but more because we were so poor than for any excellence on your part.

I think ye're relaively speaking at the same level as last year compared to us. Given how much we've weakened, that's not exactly a compliment!

Anyways, thank God the rugby season is over now. If we ever go back to winter football, we're screwed.

Derry in the first half looked a different team from the team that played against Salthill and Bray and I believe this is down to the fact that Kenny switched to 4-4-2. Eamon Zayed for example looked a different player, finally having a player to aim his headers at etc. As Bilco said McGlynn and Greacan were outstanding as was Shane McElhinney, Kevin Deery and Danny Lafferty. McClean and Mcglynn had those full back hanging out of their own arseholes and Mark Quigley didn't seem interested at all, as well as Byrne. Great victory and up to second. Excellent night all round.
Pretty much what you said there.
My personal man of the match was Mc Clean, he was brilliant on the wing and terrorised the Dundalk full back.
But something struck me watching that game, obviously Derry were well worth the win and Dundalk were cack but the overall work rate by the Derry team was immense. Its one thing playing nice football but its another thing having such levels of motivation, really professional performance.

hey Stu - i was taking it from the extratime text service and the 1890 text service (2 seperate from each other!). They both suggested that we were very dominant with a host of corners and half chances in the first half alone. I know we are not excellent this year but i didnt really say that.

And i wouldnt expect a compliment from you Stu!!! ;)

Two great goals by Kirby. Deserved the win, Rogers made 3 great saves for Pat's and it looked like he was gonna get them a point but luckily for us, Kirby stepped up :).

Don't know if you were watching the 5 a-side astro game or the game on the hill with the cattle but we deserved a point from that game last night. Yes Monaghan dominated the first half but we definately bossed the second. Gillespie was unlucky with his free kick that hit the crossbar and we had two great chances one from a Gillespie corner and one from a Morley cross into Salmon only he failed to get a good connection on it. If Monaghan deserved 3 in the first half de Town deserved that much in the second half!! Was talking to a Monaghan coach in the car park and he even admitted Monaghan were lucky to hold on as they were camped in their own half for the second half.

On another note, was your No 11 an aquisition by Roddy or had Cooke signed him before that?

Couldn't care less. Awesome stuff in the second half, if a bit nervy in the first.
Pats deserved nothing for their lack of any ambition.

Wow! You use the word 'awesome' for the second half performance??? Jaysus!!!! You're extremely easily pleased like a hooker who has just been handed a grand.

Sligo definitely deserved to win. We were even for the first half hour and then Sligo took control just before half time. We should have closed Kirby down quicker for the goals. Sligo aren't great, from what i've seen this season so far, Dundalk are a better side.

I think Sligo have earned the right to play a bit of hoofball to be fair. Good footballing side and everyone needs a plan B.

wasn't lack of ambition. just fitness. We showed early that we came to win and were on top and creating chances for 25 minutes or so. When Sligo upped their game we ended up looking knackered and sloppy mistakes led to their goals

Neither Sligo nor Pats played hoofball. playing the odd long ball, or defenders clearing it every now and again is NOT playing hoofball. Both teams tried to pass it, Sligo being that little bit better

Sligo aren't great, from what i've seen this season so far, Dundalk are a better side. missing two of our main defenders. which showed on the right as we had little play going down that wing as alan keane like to get forward

we will agree to differ Id say there was about ten minutes where you dominated and that was the last ten we should have piut the game beyond you long before that anyway dont think roddy brought anybody in as the window was closed

I agree , 1st time i have seen Pats play football against us under mahon. Usually they just try to stop us playing in the showgies. Apart from the 1st 15mins Rovers were by far the better team.

Dodge has the most accurate assessment there. With Peers and Keane out they went straight for the kill in the first half, we were lucky not to concede.

Still delighted though, MO'N was at the game too. Looking forward to tomorrow night now.

I was surprised by Pats to be honest, they got the ball down and tried to play a bit of football which is quite different to their last few visits.
After about the first half hour where Pats dominated we really took over and only for some fantastic keeping by Rogers we should have been leading at half time.
Good game, good crowd, good result and another lad on the scoresheet, things are kicking into drive nicely.
Joint top of the table, pressures on MON.

Sure that beats me hands down; I was only at the game.

Ye were better, but far from "all over" us.
