You know, I honestly think Whelan intended to book him, but when Byrne kicked the ball away he notionally earned another yellow, and Whelan produced a red just because he couldn't be arsed observing the formalities.
Dessie Baker's put on some amount of weight. :eek:
Limerick FC 1-4 Galway United 7.45
McCarthy s/o 8 Gethins 70, 84
Heffernan 44 O'Dowd 86, 88
Check out the late late show :eek:
Aertel is showing 1-5 now, with a four-minute hat-trick for O'Dowd.
O Dowd got a 4 minute hat-trick to leave if 5-1 FT in Limerick.
Only one thing can collapse quicker than a Pats player - the entire Limerick team :eek:
what a win for united, makes for an entertaining match with rovers next week in terryland
COMON UNITED
Good win ... fair play !!
Longford (easily) deserved to be down to 9. Alan Murphy should've gone for a disgusting elbow in the first half. As Sheridan said above, Byrne was only going to be booked until he lashed the ball away. Longford bunch of thugs, delighted we hammered them. Didn't think the 2 ndpenalty should've been given but easy win in the end
Anto Murphy (?) should have been booked for that dive, fu ckin cheat! :mad:Quote:

They only squared up because of him...
What was the story with the net? I thought we were gonna have another Paul Devlin.:rolleyes:
No TV camera followed the ball the whole way, but it was obvious it went in!
because of who? Anto Murphy?Quote:

p.s. I think for a good royal rumble the pats skooligans vs shels skooligans would be a good draw, proceeds to charity.
O'Dowd score a hat-trick?:eek:Quote:

3 hat tricks tonight...
It is actually quite funny as to how bad Bray were tonight. Worst team I have ever seen in the eL, and it makes me laugh to think that that muppet Devlin said that this side would be in contention for the title come November.
Great Hatrick for Roy, his second will be a goal of the season contender, a great run - beat 4/5 players and slotted it away.
Wouldn't a Pat's-Rovers final be fun?
I actually feel sorry for Longford fans tonight. The first peno was soft, the second was the biggest joke of a ball-to-hand non-peno peno that was ever given in the history of football.
First red may have been a bit harsh considering how easily Anto Murphy went down but if the centre-half hadn't spent the previous 20 minutes trying to batter Keego into concussion he wouldn't have already been on a yellow, so tough sh1t. Second red was a no-brainer, it was a clothesline tackle straight out of WWF.
Highpoint of the night for me was Sparky taking the **** out of the Longford RB Murphy for the remainder of the night after Murphy tried to cut him in half before the interval. Only for the ensuing kerfuffle distracting the ref, I reckon Murphy would've walked for his assault on Sparky. Sparky responded in the best possible way by making the rest of Murphy's night thoroughly miserable. What a pro.
A bit of karmic jusice for Longford tonight. If they hadn't clinched the 2003 final with a blatantly offside goal, we might not have b
bribed the ref's assessor to let us run amock tonight. :D
Ah yeah, pick the one club you know cannot win the thing.Quote:
