Excellent site.
The Airtricity League website is a crime against the internet. Shocking stuff.
There is a lot of info there, with some notable exceptions, but jesus do they make it hard to navigate it.Quote:

Feisty!
Quite an insightful chap.
Claiming Simon Madden is not good enough to play for Dundalk,, does McCaffrey need to go specsavers. The man is a total spoofer. Madden played every single minute in every competitive match last year as captain for us. I don't remember him having one bad match and not much got past him at right back. Actually I'd go as far in saying he is the best right back in the league.Quote:

Roddy must be praying McCaffrey stays on so Mons can be saved by default and he can continue with his 'never been relegated' mantra.
I'd say the guy is lovin' it ..... trust him to have a way out of it. Mons definitely the better of both of them though.Quote:

Great set of results for us :)
Only a point apiece difference from 2nd to 5th now. Great nights results!
UCD were well worth the win over us - they were the better side for nearly the entire game and could have had a couple more but for two great saves by Rogers. I wasn't convinced North was offside, but we would have been flattered by a point.
Peers was badly missed. Meant Ventre played centre-half. He's simply not a good centre-half - doubt the goal would have gone in with Peers there - and was badly missed in midfield, where there was no bite (Dillon had a shocker and things improved a bit when Lynch came in).
Dykes had a fine game considering his age, but was caught out for the goal with the ball coming down his wing minutes after he replaced Davoren.
On the bright side, other results limited the damage, and I'd rather have lost that than a six-pointer against Shams or Pats. We need cover at centre-back, though.
We should have moved Keane into centre back and put Boco or Raf to right back. When McGuinness was injured earlier on we lost a lot in midfield by moving Ventre back in there and the same happened tonight. Was very surprised when I saw the way we lined out. Number 1 priority in July is to sign cover for centre back.
UCD were excellent tonight. Fully deserving their win and only for Rogers they would have been 3 or 4 up going into the last 20 minutes. I think they just ran out of steam for the last 20 or so and we could have knicked a totally undeserved point in the end.
Corry and their number 8 (not sure who he was) were outstanding.
Other results softened the blow certainly
Yeah, agree with that. I was very impressed with UCD once again.
Played us off the park.
Can't believe we won tonight. Going into half time with a man sent off for something that happened down the tunnel allied with current form, I really thought we were in for a thrashing. After all his injuries it's great to see Marc Griffin scoring again. Even tonight he wasn't started because he isn't match fit, but going by the updates he made a huge difference when he came on.
Cheers lads. Yeah, felt it was a well deserved victory, we didn't just nick the points, we dominated possession and controlled the game for long periods. Obviously Sligo weren't on top of their game and suffering from the absences but it was a very satisfying performance, we moved the ball really well and the midfield interplay was lovely to watch. If we could carry this performance into the next few matches we could move towards midtable.
Also while we're continuing the with UCD love in thought the pitch was in great knick.Quote:

Sava f*cked up for Drogheda tonight.
It gets more sickening than that. For the first time in my UCD supporting history an opposition fan actually commented to me that we had good numbers in our support! With Pineapple Stu out of the country Sligo/UCD relations seem to be at an all time high! But yes, Sligo had a great crowd for a Monday night.Quote:

Mons defended well, if a bit desperately in the last 20 minutes, but neither side deserved even a point for the first 65 minutes where there were no saves made. How Greene hit the post I don't know and Bennion pulled off a great save from Sives.
Hancock was an embarrassment.
