Odd post indeed! Drogheda have picked up where they left off in last seasons run in + cup win so its a considerable period of good results. I like how the game stats mean absolutely nothing in their games bar th points pcked up - can such low possession etc sustain positive results or will they be figured out. Big pitch, better surfaces when weather improves and they may be pulled out of their defensive shape, in United Park few should expect results.
Lol I wouldn't class it as discourse it's barely even full sentencesQuote:

I believe it's getting relaid now we're heading into a run of I think five away games in six. Not sure what happened it - the rugby obviously doesn't help, but it's never been this bad beforeQuote:

Some start to the season by Drogheda in fairness. I wasn't expecting that. I was discounting their chances of making an impact in Europe but maybe they might!
Was told a pipe burst below the centre circleQuote:

We’re playing well, deserved every point we got - and should’ve beaten Galway - still think there’s more to come from us
Unfortunately for Longford, Ramblers did click last night; to be fair Rambler's goalkeeper made a great save at 2-0, Jonas Hakkinen made a great block too and you missed a sitter after h/t.Quote:

Yeah, never seen it as bad. Couple of years it was cut a bit from rugby but that was barely playable last night. Good news they're getting work done on it.Quote:

Id have back youth if needing to put in a reserve keeper but Kilduff was probably thinking there are already a bunch of teens in defence and they needed an older head to martial them, I think they have shown incredible maturity and would have coped - a real testament to their youth coaching and how the side is being coached daily. I also think we needed something to ground fans where a few were starting to think again we would walk the 1st Division. Timely as it might hav the team get the bit between the teeth as Cobh start to look dangerous with results another significant signing. That said we have a run of 4 games that on paper close to maximum points could be gained before meeting who I think will be main rivals for promotion - not to have any expectaions or anything....Quote:

Yep I thought it was a pen too. Soft, but stupidly risky by Pico.Quote:

We have quite a few 'experienced' players out injured or suspended so tbh picking up points even with a late collapse shows some resilience, youthful fearlessness maybe and something we havent show in a couple of seasons with expensive squads.Quote:
