Best wishes to Stephen O'Donnell after a horrible injury.
2-0 to Bohs, double fro Danny Grant.
Badly needed that win.
Poor game in Cobh on a disgraceful pitch but a crucial win for Longford
If clicking means hacking more lads down.Quote:

It means winning games. Like that game in Longford last weekend, for example. :ball::ball:Quote:

Dundalk probably deserved a draw but far too wasteful in the final third.Quote:

Jaysus. A record 8-0 win for UCD away against a side we beat 3-2 at home 10 days ago.
Also, Derry 7-3 Shels, which is also a lot of goals
Not so long ago, you guys beat us 8-1 at the RSC.Quote:

Game was completely void of quality and neither side deserved to win but what a goal.
Unreal.
The editing of the highlights on Soccer Republic is awful. Didn't show half of Dundalk's chances, Keegan hitting the post or the contentious decision to book Duffy for diving
Agreed - In particular it seems incredible to me that they could choose to leave out the Michael Duffy booking / penalty claim and the Keegan shot that struck the post. There must be a reason other than a simple editing decisionQuote:

You can hardly get more 'on target' than hitting the inside of the post. BizarreQuote:

Great weekend for Harps, follow it up with a win at Shels on Friday and you will start to pull away from the pack chasing UCD..
The first division is anything but a graveyard this year.
The combination of 40% of the places in the league meaning something and there being only three rounds of matches minimises the chance of dead rubber games. It does mean it'll be hard to catch anyone who gets their nose in front by a two game cushion though.Quote:

On Paddy McCourt, we're very lucky to have him at Finn Harps. He's only got another year or so left in him, so we're basking in all his majesty while we're able. He's a joy to watch, even while struggling with injury.
I am certainly jealous of not seeing Paddy McCourt in a lilywhite shirt, He may have been deemed not up to fitness levels when training with Dundalk but sometimes class is just about enough. I'd have thought that Ciaran O'Connor's spell at Bohs was more a positive thing than a blow to confidence(injury aside)!?

Dundalk manager Stephen Kenny questioned the editing process of Soccer Republic last night after they left out a number of key moments of last week's game in Waterford. He said he has seen footage showing Michael Duffy was clearly tripped for a penalty that wasn't given
Maybe these things even out over time
