Because Dundalk isn't large enough to be considered a city.

Pats beat Monaghan 2-0 with a couple of terrific goals by Andy Haran.

Monaghan were good in first half but think Pats dominated 2nd half.

The wee fecker! To think I used to like him! Did we make alot of changes in the 2nd half as Mick seems to be doing this and it seems to unsettle the team and they lose it but thats what preseason is for!

Did our strike force look at all like scoring??

Like Roy Keane, Stu doesn't do friendlies (causes an enormous amount of grief too.)

You are right about the result. There's a short report on the UCD forum.
Fernando Romero (I understand) direct from the 25 yard line with a free kick and Ciaran Kilduff with a deflected shot.

It was a tenner in, fiver for a concession. A tenner is still ridiculous. Clubs shouldn't be charging more than a fiver for games in pre-season.

Not defending it but I'd say the reason is cos they know plenty of Dundalk fans are likely to travel.

Couldn't really help you magicme as I was concentrating more on out own side. I don't think you made that many chanbges (we made more) but we seemed to be a good bit bigger (stronger) than you. Freeman played up front but I couldn't tell you anoy of your other players. You caused a bit of pnic a couple of tiomse at dead balls and tried to play football, which I was impressed with. You hit the post after a bit of a scrmble late in the first half

I wonder when was your last post which didn't include a random pointless bitch in it?

Seem to be doing OK in pre-season so far (Galway defeat aside), which is encouraging given we've practically none of last year's first team.
