A cracking game finishes 3-3 in MH Park. Both had chances to win it. Bray had a late penalty shout, and the Kerry keeper pulled off a great save minutes later. Kerry's first point against Bray but overall two points dropped.

Thought yous were poor myself mate. Some nice moments here and there but a lot of sloppy stuff from players that should be better. Tierney not at it, Clarke pretty anonymous etc.Quote:

These new signimgs better work for reynolds. If bohs lose to Dundalk next weekend they are bang in the relegation battle
Fairly routine win for Cork,they had a lot of possession with out troubling our keeper an awful lot,a moment of magic from Cathal O’Sullivan was the difference in the end but they are obviously much better than us,we are back down there next week so I’m sure that’ll be alot of fun!
Yup! I dont think even Dundalk can collapse from 4-1. Bit of a strange game, started with Dundalk dominating possession, hit the front and at 2-0 let Drogheda back in to it or we sat back by design as we have hit them ruthlessly on the break. Drogs missed one sitter though I think it would have been ruled out for a free in the build up half chances only really after. Getting a few bodies back by the looks of things with subs brought on for game time. I dont think we are beyond chasing 7th or so, unlikely but I think there could be a bit of looking over the shoulder. Hard to judge in a couple of games but the turnover of players in this window hasnt been as disruptive as it could.
Drogheda are a strange lot for the last couple of seasons they way they dont convert decent performances in to league position, can take points off anyone but just implode, brittle or something. Issues at the back that coud be sorted long before now, creativity they have and goals in them.
Nasty at the end with Drog fans crossing the pitch toward The Shed. This fixture will be moved to Sunday afternoons along with bank holidays with I presume people getting hammered during the day prior to KO time + whatever sustances on top. Im sure there will be plenty of social media footage......
Think the Dundalk 4th could go in Stu's keeper blunder thread!
Yes, I'm happy that Reynolds went attack minded, I like to see a loosing team die trying to get something out of a game, unfortunately you sucker punched now and then. On a positive note the new players all looked good.Quote:

That’s surely Drogs gone now. If and when they come back up presume they’ll be a full time outfit and more competitive?
at what point do Bohs start looking over their shoulders? Massive game coming up next. And Pats…. Like a few yrs ago, it’s the games v Rovers keeping them up
Drogheda is a disgraceful club.
Simple as.
Keeping those numbskull Belgians in their stand who only are looking for fights. First lads sprinting across the pitch.
No joke. Dock points.
Belgians?
Worst incident seen at an LOI game
Yeah... They have blue and yellow flag with them, and had blue and yellow scarfs running onto the pitch.
Always throwing shapes.
Embarrassing and says a lot about Drogheda as a club.
Can not think of a more disgraceful night for a club than this for Drogheda.
One point in nine now for Bray since restart…no change from last season, blow hot and cold, really inconsistentQuote:

The fight happened 10 yards in front of the shed, not in the middle of the park.
It's been coming with Drogheda fans for a while. Such small minded stuff like breaking into Oriel in the off-season at 4 in the morning.
Drogheda refuse to do anything about it.
Dundalk should be fined for tonight for sure... Drogheda should get something more serious.
Very lopsided El Classico tonight, Athlone far too good for Longford.
Thats basically all tat they were throwing! Looking back at the LoITV footage, it looks awful, but football hooliganism must now be a non contact thing these days, lots of waving arms, barging forward then turning tail when getting close enough to be thumped. Doesnt excuse it, or reduce the intent, but bar very small few I dont see much actual fighting. I dont want to call it cowardly or sound like 'theyre not the hard men of the 80s' - bunch of jumped up wannabe gurriers with some dutch courage on board. A knock on the door by Gardaí and their mammies would flitter them. Gardai got it under control quickly considering there were quite a few on the pitch. No need for the riot squad and not the worst Ive seen at LoI by long shot for whatever that is worth. It could be a hard hittig sanction with the tightening up on thing on pyro stuff. Dundalk will probably be questioned on positioning of security but tbh the numbers just broke through what is usually plenty of stewards and Gardai. There was a roar that went up at one point toward the end of things getting under control but didnt see what that was about. Its says little about Drogheda as a club, plenty about a segment of their support - how the club reacts will say something and if there has been a light touch on pitch invasions before which I dont recall over the years with Drogheda really, bar an individual or 2 rarely. But points should definitely be docked!!! Didnt know about any break in either tbh, dock more points for that too.Quote:

Both drogs and El Paso should be docked at least 24 points.
Are we safe yet??
