Cobh 1-0 up on Limerick! :(
And Shane Duggan sent off for Limerick now.
Looks like we'll have to go and score another 8 against Shels next week.
If Limerick lose this but beat Drogheda next week, and UCD and Cobh win next week (against Shels/Cabo at home), there'll be a huge final day set up, with UCD travelling to Drogheda and Cobh in Athlone, ready to take advantage of a win for either side.
2-0 Cobh.
Arse. They're on a decent run of form now.
Cobh definitely have the easier of the final two series of games, but anything can happen. UCDs far superior goal difference could be what separates them in the end.
Drogheda is an interesting one though, should Cobh win both their games and Drogheda lose to Limerick and UCD, then they'd miss out on the playoff. Fascinating end to the season in store. If Cobh, Limerick & UCD win next week, it's set up for a photo finish.
Should be the final nail in Russells coffin tonight.
Job is too big for him if we're honest.
Harps score and Limerick lose....what a weird night
Big big game for Pats season tomorrow. I'm Finding it hard to be optimistic to be honest, but we live in hope!
The playoff race in 1st div just got interesting.
UCD have the superior GD thanks to last night. 4 points or more combined with Drogs losing in Limerick will overtake them over the Drogs.
Drogheda have the toughest pair of games. Limerick and UCD. Realistically a point will be enough, but that is no gimmie.
Cobh have the easiest run in and will likely beat Cabo and Athlone. However if Drogs get a point they will need to hammer both sides to make up GD on Drogs.
I saw earlier in the week Pats were 5/1. thought they were mad odds.
Anyway semi finals are always ties for underdogs I feels. The greater the underdog then the more dangerous they become. Especially when PAts are not actually a bad side. They aren't as good as last season or the couple of seasons before but they have decent players.
There are certain levellers also. I think the time of the FAI semi finals and even the final sometimes disorientate the players. They are so used to evening kick offs and have their daily routine disturbed with a change in the time so you never know.
I am really hoping for a draw in this. Both clubs at each other from the go.
Our game I hope is free flowing and sorted in 90 mins. I liked the way Derry played last week in Oriel and it was entertaining. I have a feeling this wont be the case and they will be dogged and fight for every patch
A quick internet poll shows 120% of our fans want Russell gone.
Board need to act quickly.
Hearing rumours some of our travelling support sacked part of cobh aswell.
Which if true is entirely understandable.

Spat my "tea" out when I saw that, well done.

Heard rumours some of your support attacked part of Cobh support after the game.

Delighted with the performance, red card for duggan was comical but I wasn't complaining at the time.
So there's road works near Richmond park.. has this already begun in previous days. I'd imagine surely not just starting today, that would be mad considering a big crowd will be going to the game
RTÉ's attention to detail really adds something to their coverage.Quote:

Dundork couldn't possibly let this slip now? Sava very unlucky there, Boyle leaving it to him was the bigger mistake there. I think he's a much better goalkeeper than Rogers.
Some conjested month of fixtures coming up for Dundalk now after that result
