We rested a few players against Pats, and will probably rest some more tonight. Our squad isn't even big enough to rest as many as we'd like.
I also don't know which (if any) of our players are one yellow away from a suspension, but I certainly hope they are rested.
Should be an absolute canter for Waterford, as it was for Pats last week.
I can't imagine there will be too many away fans at it either. There will be a good few like me who would normally be there but are thinking of Monday instead.

The match has been pulled from Paddy Power, Bet365, etc. Suspicious betting on a Limerick win being the reason.
I'd expect nothing less than a handy win for Pat's against Derry tonight. The squad seems to be in disarray, players/managers storming out of training sessions, if you believe the rumours.

If Dundalk rest about 17 players for the cup final and have a bit of an off day, we might nick a draw ;)

Almost 100k gone on the game on betfair. Insane.

Crazy money, obviously something not right there. What happens in this situation? Does anyway have a chat with the ref or Waterford and ask if they were approached?

Apparently it may have been sparked by false rumours that Waterford players hadn’t been paid this week and were going to throw the game. I saw something about screenshots of WhatsApp messages.

Have these people seen Limerick? Waterford could try to throw the game and still win.

Bray at 25/1 PP (50/1 with power up promotion) is well worth a punt, considering Cork might rest a few in view of their cup game? What ya think?

The opposite. We've been resting players the last few weeks, and winning comfortably.
I'd expect close to the full first team to start tonight. It'l be their first time playing together since the semi.

Bray are surely as likely to beat a relaxing Cork as Limerick would be to beat an unpaid Waterford?
As expected, very strong team out. There'l be no relaxing tonight, there's lads playing for a cup final spot.
No toilets for away fans in Dalymount.

Damn wish i had seen that before i did my bet, lol. :p
4 nil. McNamee. Pats 3 up on Derry. Bohs 1 up on Dundalk. Sligo 1 up on Shams

5-0 Cork.
Just another 4 and Bray will have shipped a ton. First to do so since that woejus Galway team I think?
How they beat Derry last week I don't know
Hatrick for Sadlier puts him 2nd top scorer in the league, above Cummins.
If he started more games he wouldn't be far off the 20.
Bray score 1.

I thought it'd be bad, but this is a disgrace.
Shiels, along with the greater part of the squad, sure have to be gone.

26/10/2018, 8:37 PM
Finished 8th, third last.
70 goals conceded, a record.
5-0 tonight. Prior to Shiels taking over, our record defeat was 5-1 against Galway in 1988. We've broken that record several times in the past year few years.
16 points from the last 69.
Thank feck for Limerick being so poor. Harps would beat us in the playoff.

Dundalk snatch a draw from a match were Bohs were comfortably on top!:eek:
Only for Gary Rogers Dundalks goose would have been cooked at ht,pulled off some brilliant saves 1st half.
Bohs were v.good 1st half and @ the start of the 2nd half but seemed to run out of ideas & energy late on.
Headlines for Dundalk -
Stephen O'Donnell started a league match for the 1st time since early May and got 60 minutes under his belt.
Hoban hobbled off after getting injured in the lead-up to our goal and i hear he is on crutches with a strapped ankle.
Decent game i thought.

Strange game in Sligo. Lethargic looking rovers should have been in front early from Gary Shaw one on one with keeper but of course missed (feel sorry for him he is obviously trying so hard just can't seem to score). Sligo played well in spells . Glad this season is done. Rovers fans gave a great send off to the team . Davy mc came over and threw his shirt in , suppose we've seen the last of him a d a few others. ...role on feb

Went to Bohs-Dundalk tonight, which Bohs should have won by a couple. If Long keeps that squad together they'll have a chance next year. Looking like it'll be a pretty competitive league.
Comfortable win for Waterford last night. 3 goals in first 12 minutes so very lively start. There was also an incredible miss from Akinade when Hutchinson's free kick came back off the bar a couple of feet from goal. He hit the post when it seemed easier to score.
2 more goals in 2nd half with a deflected free kick from Hutchinson and header from John Martin after nice move.
There was an end of season party atmosphere with fans happy with our highest league finish since 1987 which is a fine achievement.

There we go putting in a half decent performance at home after being tripe there for most of the rest of the season. Giving us some hope to cling on to till the start of next season when it all falls apart again. The feckers.
Great first goal. Buckos first move needs to be getting Drennan signed up.

Spot on. Bohs battered Dundalk especially in the first half. They created loads of gilt edged chances. Rogers was probably the only Dundalk player who was up to normal levels.
Corcoran and Kelly were both excellent for Bohs who overall were a joy to watch

Some great football played by both sides last night. Bohs dominated for 70 minutes but Dundalk got stronger as fitness levels began to tell.If Long got to manage a full time team he could potentially rival Stephen Kenny
Great Dundalk crowd.They are a classy team, no doubt.Hopefully Hoban recovers.
Great performance from our young left back Kirk.Surely he must be Rovers bound to complete their collection?

Watched the stream of the Bohs match on skorlive. Have to agree with Ezekial's points. Bohs were very good, and are a joy to watch, but they visibly tired with about 25 to go. You could see Dundalk grabbing one, even at the death. The draw was a little harsh on them overall though, I thought. Keith Long's doing a fantastic job there. Was hard to see what happened to Hoban but he went straight down as the equalizer went in. Would be a bit of a blow for Dundalk heading into the final if he is out, but they're not a one-man team.

I was at the match and was it difficult to know what happened but have been told he twisted his ankle as he spun away to celebrate Clearys goal.Freak incident.

Cracking game at Dalymount, Bohs were excellent and probably deserved win (especially on first half display) but Dundalk were always in it at 1-0 and had chances especially late on (both before and after the equalizer). Speed, power and Fitness levels of Dundalk make them such an exceptional LOI side.
Excellent game to watch and a more than decent crowd make it another great night at Dalymount. Bohs, Dundalk and both sets of supporters put on a great advertisement for Irish football.

Derry looked like the season couldn't end quick enough for them. Started brightly enough but once it started to go against them the game was over.
Good way to end the season for us, did well to finish 5th in the end although I don't think that says much for the rest of the league given how frequently we underperformed. Looking forward to next season already, going to be a weird one without Bucko and Conan but encouraging signs that we've already got a few lads signed up for the next couple of years. Think we're only a couple of additions off properly challenging for Europe (assuming Waterford and Rovers don't drastically improve themselves).

And ye've qualified to turn down the Scottish Cup again :)
Would leave Bohs and Sligo again as the two next in line.

1-0 to Harps at h-t(McCourt Pen)
Lims have had chances as well.
Anyone got a stream to the match(SkorLive don't seem to have it)or will i just have to stick with the radio commentary?

Still have a chance to save things at home. With the form we've been in that's as much as I hoped for.

Result now.
Harps will have wanted more from the home leg I'm sure

We are very fortunate to be going down with a lead, limerick the better side
osarusan
29/10/2018, 9:11 PM
We had more of the ball but Harps were happy enough to let us have it and just keep their shape, as we struggled to create anything at all.
Sent countless crosses into the box, all dealt with fairly comfortably.
I'd imagine the second leg will look pretty similar.
