Any idea what sort of a team we'll be field for this? It's going to be an odd one as it's only 3 days before the Fingal game but at the same time a solid 10 since the last league game. Hard to see what sort of a mix will be given the run out.
I'll be live blogging this one as well over at action81.com. Won't be around to do the Fingal one.

I'd say it'll be similar to the Athlone League Cup game. Might give the likes of Dwayne Wilson or Mark McGinley a run. But agree it's a tough one to call.
Sounds a good win with a side even weaker than the League Cup team (Doyle in for Corry, Wilson in for Houstan). Talk of some Drogheda players having a go at each other shortly before half time too. All has to bode well for the league game between us next Monday.

We were good for the win, neither side really got going until Wilson's goal and even then it was a far from high-tempo game. I wouldn't read too much into this for next Monday as I imagine the lineups and level of caring on both sides will look quite different.

I'd expect 11 changes for us, but Drogheda had the likes of Ally Mac, Paul Skinner (in goals on the opening day, but dropped since, I think), Brian King and Joe Kendrick, so certainly it looks like they were taking it more seriously than us, which is encouraging.
