Very competitive league this season, early days of course and not even one round complete, yet I had expected Rovers and Derry to be out in front and by a small distance by now.
We have only won one game, but still unbeaten, however the improvement from last year (wouldn't be that hard now) is remarkable and probably better than expectation, certainly performance wise anyway and how the new team seemingly has already gelled.
Still two big players in Leahy and Mountney to come into the squad, both will greatly add to the full back options which to be fair are being covered quite nicely by Bone and Macari currently, the latter was excellent v Rovers, won a lot / most of his balls, passing and support to the attack was top notch too. His grandfather would be happy with that display !

Bohs 1 up on UCD but don’t look too convincing,UCD have had a couple of decent chances,Whelan guilty of missing a big one after exploiting the Bohs high line…
Yep - Bohs not much better than Harps/Shels I think, but they do have Omochere, who seems a quality player.
Kerrigan giving the entire Bohs left side the absolute run around too.
Bohs' goal was a cluster**** on our part. We really just need a break, even at this early stage of the season
Surprised at the small home crowd,though given recent events people are,nt too pleased with how the club handled things.Cork very impressive moved the ball well,lad in midfield ran the show Bolger ?.Tbh 4 nil flattered Treaty totally outplayed all game and rarely threatened Cork keeper.Treaty need to revert to what they were doing last season hard and all as it was to watch.Quote:

UCD level and Sam Todd might never get an easier header in the opposition box,woeful defending….
Draw was the least we deserved out of that. Whelan could have had a hat-trick and that'll be a concern. But quite an enjoyable game overall I thought, if fairly scrappy at times
Students should have won it on chances in the second halfQuote:

Went to the game at the Markets Field today. Having seen Treaty on Monday night, I expected more from them, but I suppose the poor start didn't help. Once they got the second goal, Cork were in total control. I would agree with point made earlier, that Treaty are trying to play too much football. The more direct style of the full-time clubs in the first division could make it difficult this season for the Limerick team. Small enough home crowd on a nice day weather wise. Poor form by the Cork supporter throwing flares onto the field.
Very scrappy game in Drogheda, tight pitch, little quality on the ball, stupid flares, missed sitters, burglar alarm head wrecking!!
Rovers losing 2 nil. Could be 3 or 4 up. Bizarre. Sligo scored 2 from nowhere. This isn't over though if rovers keep going
Derry 1-0 up at half time. Deserved you’d have to say. Nice finish for the goal. Header over from Billy King was the best Pats could manage. We had a bit more of the play as the half went on, but will have to do better in the second half if we want to get anything out of this.
Harps 1 up at Tolka,hit the bar twice in the first 5 minutes,Shels have been pretty poor and have lost Jr Wilson to what looks like a bad injury,taken away straight to an ambulance…
Agree all over them with by far ( bizzarly ) ) our best performance so far but firstly Sean Hoare missed clearing a cross he should have headed away and then an absolute gift by Cotter - Sligo created little themselves but 2-0 up at h/t - early goal for us and then see no reason not to win - lose and potentially 7 points off the topQuote:
