The Derry game was the main piece on the RTE's late sport news tonight. It looked like the keeper let it in :eek:

But seriously well done Derry. showed a lot of heart tonight. and what is with the likes of Hairy Bowsie?? Is there people that want this league to fail?? Every victory strengthens out position. I just find it ridiculous that people are against OUR teams. I dont care who he/she follows but this is a league forum and in my eyes we should follow our league and clubs.
If not, confine yourself to your own club section. talk about your trip to Ballybofey or Lissywollen all you like, but this is our European representatives so if no positives arouses your post, leave it out will ya. Great night all round, best of luck to all in the next round
Well done Pats and us.
Sligo should have been in this round as I watched it online and they should have won easy.
Last night..............Bohs...........what can I say.....................so in control and then fuked up.
Shams did great V Real so all in all a great week for us LOI fans.
ya well done pats and derry. 2 wins which is great. im liking the new derry strip. kinda old looking but i like it :ball:

Well done Pats for a remarkable result, but i'm afraid the blame for Bohs departure lies firmly on the shoulders of Pat Fenlon.Quote:

There is a big difference between Skonto and RBS though. Still doesn't mean they shouldn't have at least triedto hold onto the ball and attack.Quote:

Am i missing something? Was that not Steve Williams for Fingal last season against US!! or Roy Carroll for Utd a few years back?Quote:

Dont you get like 390k for each round?Pats will have to spend a good bit of that on travel to Russia of all places?Will they all get visas?
Thanks. I'll have to watch it when I get home, no video watching in work!Quote:

I can't speak today.Quote:

As for RBS being better than Skonto, well they sure didn't look better than Skonto, as Skonto played very well, but RBS were rubbish. If Bohs had of taken the game to them, i'm sure they would have won.Quote:

If Bohs had come out and played they would have lost handily. They played the only way that gave them a chance - 10 men behind the ball and ride their luck.
Doesn't matter who the team is, breaking down an organised 10 men is difficult as RBS showed. Thats why this game is great, it gives inferior teams, with less quality and ability, a chance of upsetting a superior teams.
Anytime Bohs tried to play ball they lost it in dangerous areas and gave RBS a chance to score. In fact they never looked like conceeding when they didn't have the ball such was they defensive organisation.
But to suggest that they should of gone on the attack for the game, and that the result would have been anything other than a whopping defeat I think is unrealistic - much as i day i hope to be wrong.
No they weren't on any other planet or anything like it. Ireland played Italy a while back and Italy completely set off Ireland allowing players like Whelan to appear as Xaviesque.
When Bohs actually got up and supported and actually looked to play positive football they looked just as much as a threat as Salzburg. Red Bull had absolutely no creativity...AT ALL. They never looked like scoring.
full time clubs like bohs this shouldnt be a problem. but i suppose when you look at the european side we come up against we do look a bit weak. do LOI clubs do much work in the gym ??Quote:
