It has to be Lenihan. The guy is better than anything in this league. It'll be a big blow to is when he does go and it'll be soon I'd say. He'll be in the full international setup in the not too distant future.Quote:

Edit: oops posted already.
Iarlaith Davoren or John Kavanagh can come into the starting XI without weakening the back line much though.
Scouts from Birmingham also.Quote:

Very disappointed not to hold on to our 2-0 lead but to be fair we done nothing in the 2nd half. Bohs could of had more than one penalty, but both their goals were because of some shocking defending by us. Still though its another point towards safety and we are slowly creeping back into it.
Some hit from Mark Salmon for us last night

While it may have been incredibly stupid by Byrne and ultimately cost Derry the win, based on this Derry Journal piece Peter Hutton appears "baffled" by the referee's decision.Quote:

DERRY City boss, Peter Hutton was ‘baffled’ by skipper, Cliff Byrne’s second half dismissal as his side were denied victory against league leaders Dundalk by a last gasp Ritchie Towell strike deep into second half stoppage time at Brandywell Stadium.
Quote:
However, the turning point in the game arrived on 70 minutes when Byrne was controversially shown a straight red card by referee, Robert Rogers after consulting with his assistant who appeared to spot an ‘off the ball’ clash between the Derry centre half and substitute Patrick Hoban.
The linesman spotted the off-the-ball assault by Cliff Byrne and immediately flagged. The Derry captain got the inevitable red card and surely a minimum 3 match ban will follow. He let himself, his team, the manager and the Derry supporters down badly by his actions.Quote:
And Hutton was disappointed with the sending off of his captain.
“I know for a fact the referee didn’t see it,” he added. “How they decided to come to that decision after a few minutes was baffling to say the least.
I don't expect the manager to castigate his captain in public, but neither is there any need for him to pretend to be baffled or to infer that there was some sort of injustice done to him
From speaking to and listening to people who were at the game, the only thing in doubt appears to be how many games Byrne will be banned for, def agree 3 would appear to be minimum.
If McMillan got 3 games for the Foran incident then 3 is a must for Byrne. Not a great game overall and as mentioned we were poor. The best part was the Derry fans, they're very cranky to say the least! One came over at the end and started chanting "cheats" at us, was very funny :-DQuote:
