That lad setting odds for PP doesn't know what he's at.
Jasus 13/8 fill yer boots
Going to stick a few quid on this, if Galway wins its a free night out.
Away goals don't count, right?
Correct.
Feels a bit weird to be heading to a playoff game as a neutral. The masochist in me might even be feeling a bit jealous. Suppose it's good for the blood pressure levels to spread the joy every so often. If nothing else its sure to be more enjoyable than sitting through the soaps with the missus
Worth noting we've an awful record at home against Galway, but do quite well out there. Even this season, we've lost in the Bowl and won in Galway. In 2008, all three league games ended in away wins.
Galway had a great away record in the regular season too if I remember rightly. Not sure they actually lost a league game away from home.
Galway lost one away game - away to Wexford. Didn't lose any games in Dublin this season. Only lost 2 - 1 away to Dundalk in FAI Cup.Quote:

Half time now. Still 1-0. Galway very poor. Fancy Benson for one on Friday unless they improve a lot. That said, we're getting a lot of offside calls in our favour and are defending very well at times. Wouldn't take much for Galway to equalise
The PA announced 643.Quote:

Wojus one on one miss from Galway, who are pushing a lot more this half. But bottom line is they're not good enough at present
I fear for this country when a leading university cannot count.Quote:

No away goals, but you'd think if it stays 1-1 that's advantage Galway.
2 -1 Galway
1 - 2 Mannnniiinnngggggg
2-1 Galway
Jesus, UCD...
89th and 90th minute
O'Donnell super save
Result.
Real kick in the teeth. But with Bens and creevy back for the return and our mutual good away records against each other, still reckon we can do this
Dare I say enjoy your few pints !!!!Quote:

At least away goals don't count so still all to play for.
Nope. Beating ucd does not a premier division side make. :)Quote:

Galway Fc have played 5 times in Dublin this year. Won 4 & Drew 1
