well done to the lads done ourbest to keep the pressure on finn harps
great result and great atmosphere:D
only down side was the sending off poor decision and poor refereeing where do they get these fellas, the guy today was too physically weak to stand up to the abuse he was getting from the dundalk players if that was a brave ref dundalk would have had more yellows and a red
never played advantage either this sport is for entertainment not for refs to make a name for themselves:mad:
Ramblers were class for the first hour or so and should have been more than two up, Reilly was brilliant and is on fire at the moment.
What can I say about the ref, absolutely terrible, twice he called play back when Ramblers were clean through just to award a free and the first time when a Dundalk player went down holding his leg?
Sending off was harsh and a minute later a Dundalk player handles deliberately and nothing done. The 'tackle' on Mikey near the end was unreal and the player only gets a yellow?
It's a pity we have to give out about him as it took away from a brilliant Ramblers display.
great win, even though i predicted a 2 nil or 2-1 win, i thought that dundalk would have threatened a bit more. the truth is we played them off the park, thay had no answers. the scoreline flattered them, they couldnt beat us even with the help of a shocking official who done nothing to stop their shocking, cheating, loser behaviour, they are a disgrace. dundalk knew we were too good for them as they settled into a game of cheating, diving, faking injury and acting like bunch of *****s:mad:. a fair result would have been 4 nil or 4-1 tbh.
if it does come down to playoff, if we dont win the title, we will beat them again...;)
Excellent performance by the lads today! Reilly magic, poor ref, kev should not have been sent off whereas the guy who tackled mikey should have got a straight red.
PS: The lads teamtalk was by Donal Óg Cusack. Good of him to turn up and show support for a Cork club bet his teamtalk was good too. I'd say if u wern't fired up by it u wouldn't have played.
We beat Dundalk and we beat the ref too. How Bad?
Harps still drawin 0-0 come on Wexford!
unreal performance, reilly was on fire, played them off the pitch defo in da first half...atmosphere in da new stand was brillant too.
Class! The lads gave it their all, it wasn't always pretty but Reilly's finishing was A1. Forget about Dundalk's diving, cheating and constant abuse to the officials (along with a shambles of a perfomance by the ref for which he'll probably get a glowing report from the assessor), we still got the result. That's called justice!
Great to see the stand being used at last, only half open but a nice taste of the future. Well worth waitin for.
Today was a great ad for League of Ireland football and especially for Ramblers. Hopefully a few of the faces who came down just for the big game might appear again sometime soon. :eek:
Great win today - well done to the Rams.
According to Aertel the other match finished one nil to Harps - 82nd minute.
This is freakin' nerve racking!!!
Three to go - all to play for still.
Come on the RAMS !!!!!!!!!
Great display today from the lads. Great atmosphere too. Some of the Dundalk players should hang their heads in shame because of their 'DIDA' type behaviour in the first 10 minutes, absolutely disgraceful and got Alan Carey booked for nothing. The referee was very poor, with no concept of the advantage rule definately denying Kieran O'Reilly a hat-trick. A very harsh sending off for Kevin Murray and again the ref showed no consistency after that by ignoring two Dundalk handballs by giving no bookings plus the tackle on Micky O'Shea being a definate red card. Overall Hendo must be very proud and happy with his team's display. He has done a great job since he took over as manager and the club is lucky to have him.
well said eddie, u hit the nail on the head when you say ''dida-type behaviour''.:DQuote:

After the game I thought many of the Dundalk fans I met in the bar were very gracious in defeat and I listened to John Gill's interview on Red fm and he was equally so, and that's good to see.
Did anyone get the attendence? Good crowd but the team deserve a lot more people coming in a lot of city fans their 2day,Rams deserved the win no-one can deny this we really should be top but in fairness Harps are proving to be worthy of the title now as well the ref was poor but didnt cost us the game so no point in having a go just yet.With waterford winning it looks like they will finish second bottom and be in the playoff its all to play for now tricky test next week at shels but i think we have enough to see them off-my man of the match goes to our whole back four yesterday never lost control.
Jeez you lads are keeping us on our toes :D Nerve wracking to say the least.

1200 match report at RamblersWeb
must say i didnt like that prat bennion mouthing off at the end telling the crowd to f*ck off there was kids and the like waiting to get out of the ground and that fool starts abuing them, should be above that the prat:D
take exception to dunny2k, carey did nothing was right next to it your player dropped like a stone seems to be a ploy of dundalks did it as well in oriel got our player sent off when faked a headbutt
:D
Bennion is a scumbag, he was giving young Harps fans the fingers at our last game against them too.
The Dundalk fans were on our forum dishing out abuse at how much of a cheat Deccy Boyle was, and that if one of their players were to fane getting hurt or injured like that, they would honestly turn their back on him. Now Deccy got elbowed in the face, dropped to the ground, only to rise promptly to square up to the Dundalk player, the Dundalk fans then claimed "it was like picking on a ten year old".
I rest my case, well done lads, see ye in the prem (hopefully)
Sam, Boyle acted foolishly against Dundalk earlier,in the same way Bennion acted foolishly if he did what your saying.Bottom line is footballers will generally do what ever it takes to win,and if they don't win then again they generally take it bad.Boyle and Benno are two of the top players in the division in my opinion.
You seem to have totally changed your mind about Dundalk as a couple of weeks ago i remember you posting similar "hope to see you in the premier" comments about Dundalk.
By the way Cobh,well done yesterday,totally deserved your win,and i wanna apologise for the behaviour of some of our "fans". Hopr we do ourselves more justice if our paths cross again this year.Hendo doing a brill job!!!
I thought Shane Guthrie was absoutely brilliant cleared absolutely everything that came his way. My man of the match.
Graham Cummins was brilliant too ran his legs off. Credit to Reilly took his goals well.
Are you seriously telling me that Keith Dunne was not head-butted when i seen it?!?!Quote:
