Cant agree with you there - Derry were a handful in Oriel and were unlucky not to get a point under Hutton. They are a big, physical team that have something about them if limited. Roddys Derry were totally clueless and with greater resources! I'm not Roddy bashing for the sake of it...a truly dreadful setup with a decent squad!

I can only judge them on the league table and when we play them the recent 3-0 up there was the handiest win in the Brandywell in a long time, them seemed to be totally lacking conviction and Derry sides were always hard beat.

Every team will put in below par performances during the season. Defensively, we were all over the place last night.

I left the ground with this nagging thought of what happens if we defend like that against BATE.

That is the key point. We've gotten away with below par performances but BATE are a couple of notches above the best in this league so we can't perform like that against them or we will be punished.

Mental game in Tolka last night. Both sets of supporters seemed in agreement that the referee made some incredibly headscratching decisions.
Harps were awful though. Have no idea how we've gotten so bad in the space of a few weeks but something needs done soon or we can kiss promotion goodbye.

Lee Duffy is a poor mans David Speedie, he played the lone striker very very well.
Meathdrog is right though the first half was both Lloyd and Danny Dyer.

Yes - the first half was dreadful. Utterly miserable football. Felt sorry for the Dortmund fans present who were introduced to the crowd at half time. What they must have thought!?! Great to nick a win at the end - Bohs have always been Drogs' 'bogey' side.

Rogers is always good for a blunder in Europe. Could cost you this year.

Totally agree with the comment from the pats fan on here that we rolled over without any fight at all (bar rice who gave his all) and pats never left 2nd gear. Fresh blooded needed in town squad ASAP
