It also said that Mannus saved from a chambers free kick and also that Frost got a yellow card in the second half even though he was subbed after 10 minutes :) It said it the Drogs fans had to stand in the rain at Morton the other week when it wasnt even raining :)
I dont get that post at all! it was 2-0 at the time so it looked as though dundalks unbeaten start to the season would be gone :confused:Quote:

Dundalk beat us 4-3 in the showgrounds last season. We were 3 nil up in that game and still managed to lose it.Quote:

Over all we created the better chances and deserved the win but were up and running now which is the main thing.Quote:

No, but sure it's better to point it out anyways.Quote:

Drogheda obviously were the better side in the 1st half with the wind behind them, you had more of the ball and the better of the chances, but it was the chances you created, apart from the shot that came off the top of the bar, the free kick save (which was straight forward enough) and the block in the 6 yard box, most of Drogheda’s chances came from distance. Bakers free kick was in but for the wind just on half time, it was going straight into the top corner and right at the end the wind took it off target. In the 2nd half we created chance after chance, had the ball in the net twice, hit the woodwork twice and your keeper pulled off a few very decent saves, one from a Tresson volley than bounced up was a great save.
I just thought we did much better with the wind and created a lot more than Drogheda did. There was nothing wrong with Tresson’s goal either, complete home town decision. Bakers goal must have been very close as well, from were I was, which was very close to being in line with him, he looked onside when the 1st ball went through but as it went through players and he then ghosted in unmarked he looked miles off side so could see why it was given.
Before the game I would have been happy with a draw, after it I felt we did more than enough to win it.
I can say with some confidence that this Drogheda v Bray game was the first game of football I have ever seen.
That's really weird... I meant to say 'worst'. If it was the first game of football I had ever seen, it would have put me off for life.
Should be a great turn out for the Bohs v Pats game, seeing there isn't any other football of interest on television. (Except Barcelona v Arsenal - I mean, who'd be interested in that!!?).
Well I for one would "interested" in seeing Barca v Arse, but I can`t wait to see Bohs V Pats and I am sure there will be 2,500 - 3,000 others there who put support over "interest".Quote:

Ye could easily have won it in the last 15mins but it would have been undeserved.Quote:

Ye where limited to long range shots for alot of the game.Quote:

Yeah i thought Sligo were poor enough...a wonder strike from Mc Cabe and a goal from a corner stupidly given away by Breen seemed to have won it for you...but similar to last season,as soon as we got one back your whole team seemed to sh*t themselves.In the end we could have won it,but then again had Cherrie to thank for a great save right at the death.Great crowd for such a bad night.
You left out the two that where cleared off the line in between all that!!Quote:

You could add another 100-150 in the Jodi too. Good Bohs crowd too considering its a Tuesday and clashed with Champions LeagueQuote:

Faherty's superb goal
great crowd Pats fans - well done.
Decent crowd alright and Pats fans were very impressive in getting behind their team throughout. decent match and a draw probobly fair as neither team did enough to deserve the win. (alledged) ref McKeon meandered between the bizarre and the ridiculous as only he can but special comment for the muppet "asst ref" on the Connaught Street side who hardly got a call right all game - fortunately he was equally crap for both sides. thought both Pats early goal and Maddens were legit (both disallowed) but I had not got a great view/angle and could be wrong.Quote:

From behind the goal it looked like the ball went out at least 3/4 times and he didn't give a throw. Of course the highlight of the night was Kenna and Pender getting in each other's way with no Bohs player within 5 yards of them and somehow Pats were awarded the throwQuote:

Yea remember that, staggering decision. That lino always looks nervous but last night was the worst display I ever saw (and that is saying something). Fortunately the two teams produced a decent game despite the officials.Quote:
