Doesn't there need to be an FAI assessor at every game? If something was a bit peculiar, surely they'd have been asking questions by now?

They do know about it. UEFA are investigating i believe. If the FAI do something or cover it up is a different story. Fran Gavin said he met the investor, which he didnt. Do they are leaving themselves open big time.

Aaron Brilly has left athlone now. Had enough of the circus and wanted to get away from the entire thing before it all blows up. Strangest game of football I've ever seen last night. Something not right

The foreign lad was in charge last night Marty, don't know why the other fella was listed but Cravo was 100% calling the shots. His behaviour on the line was a disgrace. 4th official bottled sending him to the Stand. Tried starting fights woth our bench and everything

I'll admit to knowing feck all about the vagaries of the odds markets, but it seems the Athlone fans have captured an apparently significant movement in the odds for one more goal just before we scored our third, which Athlone gifted us. It suddenly went odds on with three minutes left. Maybe someone with more knowledge would be able to explain what kind of money would cause this swing but it's unlikely to be a coincidence.

Like yourslef I wouldn't know the science behind it but some of the stuff I'm seeing online makes it hard to believe this isn't been flagged up more than just on forums and a few twitter pages

There are better qualified people on here that can answer this question, but I would say it wouldn't take a huge pile considering that there wouldn't be a massive amount of money on the game.

It would take massive money. An expert in the area described it to me as the only way a match could be 0.76 on to be over 3.5 goals with 3 minutes left is if there is massive money, at least high 6 figures at minimum, or it's Barcelona against an under 5s team.
We have discovered this pattern in at least 4 games this season. Bohemains pre season. UCD away. Waterford and longford. Maybe more. It's being heavily investigated and all these games are believe to be fixed.
This is much bigger than any of you realise. This is a massive betting ring. The guy behind it all owns 5 or 6 clubs all over Europe. And they are all match fixing clubs.

While I'm sympathetic to the despair of Athlone fans and am perfectly willing to be convinced of betting shenanigans, I don't think we should discount yet that its just a bad team being led by a bad management team conceding bad goals. If there was some kind of repeating irregularity surrounding Athlone would betting companies still be taking bets on them?

I still believe in bradley and this team. The bad luck and decisions th at have gone against us this season have bled the confidance you could see that in the nervousness and the way we sat deeper and deeper even with finn and bradley roaring to get out.
With virtualy a new team it was always going to be a while I just hope it happens soon. They need to win a big match to get a bit of confidence, next Friday would be a good place to start.

We all believe in you too Stephen #sbgawa

Comfortable 2-0 win for City against Pats in the league cup this afternoon. We had a weakened side. Good to see what some players have to offer, and what some definitely don't.

Pats had a very good spell late on at 1-0 with a few chances but we got a late goal on the break to kill it off.

Galway beat Sligo on pens.
Dundalk currently 1-0 up on Waterford with an hour played.

Conor McCarthy did a very good job, I thought. Might be a valuable backup option when Ryan Delaney's loan is over.
