Philly Gormans winner was an absolutely fantastic header. Go on the Town
Did not Derek Doyle score it?
Great header alright.
We've almost all our experienced players out injured, which really isn't helping. Hard to see yet which of the new faces will make the grade. No chance of promotion this year I'd say.
Was Kavanagh missing for the Drogs last night? Just goes to show how big an influence he will be for them this season despite all the stick he gets from other clubs fans.
Yeah, they did have a couple missing including Kavanagh.
No everywhere reported Doyle cause of the announcer but it was PhillyQuote:

Pats the better team here. Best they've played this season. A Dundalk set piece the difference. McCormack very unlucky to see red
That certainly gave me a laugh.Quote:

It was mainly one way traffic for the match. Of course Pats would get a couple of attacks but they were a rarity.
Bolger should have seen red for abuse of the ref, Dundalk and his own players.
Brennan was a fool.
The ref was blind to all the pushing by the Pats players. Great result but I'd preferred to have seen a football match. Not one team playing football and the other trying to get the game abandoned.
Latest:
Bray 0-1 Bohs
Limerick 2-1 Longford
2-2 in Limerick now. Davy O'Sullivan x 2 for Longford, Russell x 2 for Limerick.
You either missed the part were I said Dundalk would have won anyway, or chose to ignore it.Quote:

Martin Cambridge has resigned as Cobh manager. Bad result tonight but seems a bit early in the season for that.
Wide open for a Stephen Henderson return
Looking forward to the CL next Season. Bohs on Tour!
Stephen Kenny: "Bohs away on Tuesday will be a sterner test than St. Pats".
Stephen Kenny: "The next team we face are the greatest in the history of the league". Every week.
Sk seems to have aquired a sense of humour from somewhere.!
Should be interesting on Tuesday night to see what level Bohs can compete at.
Bray were awful last night, game wasnt helped by them not cutting the grass for the last three weeks? presumably to slow the ball down. Extratime had the crowd at 500 , looked to be twice that to me.
1,421 was official figure.Quote:

Eh, Dundalk only watering the half of the pitch they are attacking into!Quote:

Cork City (1984-2010) - 831
Cork City FORAS Co-op (2010-2010) - 33
Cork City (2011-2014) - 126
Cork City (2015) - 3
TOTAL: 993
1,000 games for a club less than 5 years old is impressive going.
and not a single foul committed.......
5 years old and still bigger than the league champions. Impressive indeed.Quote:

Re: Cork, agreed it's 993 standard league games plus 6 playoff games, and the total excludes expunged games v Dublin City 2006 and Monaghan 2012.
