How many red cards is that now in the first 5 series of games?!
Limerick were very poor tonight. We should have had at least a draw.
Alot of time wasting with 15 mins left from Limerick. Overall disappointed with loss but pleased with performance.
Ya we where poor but felt we should have had two more goals and been home and dried with Behans two great chances and Paudie cracking it off the crossbar. Athlone played decent but Barry Ryan had no saves at all to make and athlone squandered their one good chance in my opinion.
Losing Derek O Brien so early was a pity and then we lost corie by half time meaning we couldb't get any more attacking options like Sheehan on the pitch. All in all delighted to just get the 3 points.
The pitch was awful to say the least. Absolute sandpit. Hard to see the reasoning behind the amount of sand on it. With a lovely ground like that you'd expect a very good playing surface but I've never seen the pitch in good nick. Is it used for a lot of junior games?
It is just rock hard and the pitch is being worked on at present but needs a two week break and dry weather with it for spiked, chain harrowed, seeded etc. Weather earlier in year didn't allow for it. After Wexford game were have three weeks without home game so will be best playing surface in country then.
Anyways when did Pat Scully tactics ever require a pitch?
Aertel gone awol again tonight ?
Derry were dreadful. Fair play to Drogs - they were exceptionally effective, trebling up on Derry players in their half and then counter attacking with intent and fluency. Sean Brennan was the game's outstanding player.
But we were awful, worst performance from that team in some time (within a number of years). Players and management knew it too - Devine and Hegarty were furious. It'll either be a crucial lesson for team and management or a portentous sign of things to come.
I agree Limerick were poor again tonight but still won we haven't played well yet this season still trying to gel as a team. BUt as for your point of deserving a draw get real lad Barry Ryan had not one shot on Target to deal with towards Limerick hitting the bar behan missed a free header 6yrds out at the end of the first half then he failed to connect with a ball rolled across the six yard box when it was easier to score he topped it off by missing a one on one towards the end.
What a difference a year makes, Drogheda flying now under Mick Cooke. What a fantastic job he has done so far, looked relegation dead certs prior to the beginning of last season. He has moulded a nice team together there now
