Great night for Pats. Superb win in Drogheda with 10 men from the 23rd minutes. Drogheda never really troubled us with the extra man. Still think Breslin was an idiot to get himself sent off for raising his hands. Team responded brilliantly though. Sweet bonus was UCD beating Dundalk. Two points behind with a game in hand. The chase is on, as Bradley Walsh might say.
I presume there must have been a serious injury in the Munster derby that there have been 13 (!) minutes of injury - Waterford equalised late on, but Cork have now retaken the lead, which moves them significantly nearer the championship. Meanwhile, Galway got a late draw at Cobh, which means the latter now fall to the bottom on goal difference.
Another 3 points :eek:
Great win for Pats in Drogheda, the team had to dig deep and got the win. A shock result in Belfield makes Sligos paperwork error feel all the worser.
Even though Bohs lost they created some decent chances and it was an even game. Some of their new players like Clarke and Varian are starting to look all right. Nothing amazing, but an improvement on the performances from a few weeks ago that's for sure when they were outplayed by 10 men Shels.
Let no know say UCD don't deserve their place to at least fight to stay in the Premier division. Very amusing result.
Watched a few minutes of derry game - thank god I didn't see the derby last week as I struggle to wonder how Rovers lost to the beard oil bozos..
Cue a harps win…..Quote:

Really weird feel atm but a couple of chinks of bright light , the new lads(some), look at leat physically ready, and perhaps the new manager can mould a side from what’s there.Quote:

Badly need to sign someone in the off season who can find the back of the net. We have to be taking our chances if we want to get something out of these types of games.
While Pats were taking 15 points from 5 games, our friends in Dundalk dropped 11 albeit they got 3 handed back by the FAI. But for that they’d already be behind us with an extra game played. The chase is certainly on and has been for a while.
Not easy got unfortunately especially in our league.Quote:

A Rovers fan should be more concerned about a resurgent Derry than another loss for Dundalk. I ddnt get to see the game but I'll guess at a high defensive line was exploited by younger and faster attack...Quote:

Brilliant performance when down to 10, though it's fair to say Drogheda weren't on it at all tonight, if anything it worked against them as it put more of an onus on them to have to break us down which never looked all that likely (although it didn't feel like that at times in the away end!).
Brilliant win for Pats after playing most of the game with 10. Drogheda were awful going forward and actually looked like the side with a man less throughout. Cotter was excellent for Pats after coming on at half time and Atakayi caused a lot of problems for the Drogs defence with his pace. Darragh Markey has always been a great dribbler with really good close control but his final pass is awful and his goal record through his career is worse than a centre backs despite being an attacking midfielder. Gary Deegan looks like he’s edging ever closer to retirement too, his legs are absolutely gone, so so slow to turn and easy to outpace in general
Disgraceful refereeing cost Waterford a deserved point at the RSC. First half was poor with not many chances. Cork took the lead 10 minutes into 2nd half and 2 minutes later ref sent off Tunmise Sobowale for a nothing incident which the Cork player made a meal of. Waterford finished strongly and sub Raul Uche headed in a corner to level it on 90 minutes.
Then the ref gives Cork a ridiculous penalty which no Cork player even claimed for following a free kick into the box.
Keating put it in off the post and Cork fans invaded pitch to celebrate. The referee should be investigated. Anyone who saw the game online even a Cork fan said it was not a sending off or a penalty.

No question that's a red card. Even if Bolger goes down easily its stupid by the Waterford player. Right in front of the 4th official too.
Shame to see Wexford collapse completely,haven’t won a game since beating Sligo in the cup…
“””Are the FAI desperate to get Cork city up to the premier with dodgy decisions both Galway and Waterford have had red cards against them at Turners cross in first few min this season“”
And another red last night for Waterford 🤷*🤷
We had a genuine goal ruled out last week for no reason, Keating was suspended for that game for a red card received in Derry that the "fouled" player stated afterwards wasn't a card. Same ref for those two games by the way
And last nights red card was clearly a red card.
If Galway want to get promoted they should try winning some games. Their last league win was July 22nd. 6 points from 6 games. Has nothing to do with refs and everything to do with results.
Whatever about the red card the penalty at he end was a joke after Cork had blown their lead against 10 men
both of them were red cards. read the rules.Quote:

Looks like the striker grabs Gilchrist and maybe lifts him a little. Its probably a foul but theres a dozen of those a game that don't get given. I will also point out it was right in front of the ref. He had a better view of the incident than anyone else. You could call it clever play by Gilchrist. I'll take it. We've had plenty of decisions go against us this season and especially in recent weeks.Quote:

Euro spot should have been in the bag weeks ago, now its straight battle with Pats for 3rd, away form / results have also been mostly dreadful this year (only 3 wins), 6 games left, just glad 4 of them are at home, including a key one v Pats.
Easy as you like for Rovers so far
Shouldnt be on the same field as them,3 down and Rovers arent out of first gear...
In all likelihood you won’t be next season.Quote:
