A turnaround of titanic proportions.

There is a long way to go and any of the top five could conceivably be title contenders.

I checked Dundalk's odds today with PP and they have been cut from 12/5 to 6/4 after Friday. I didn't notice what Rovers were before Friday but they are 5/2 now.

Interesting to note a Rovers fan texted into the Dundalk FM football show on Sat afternoon, their cult following is obviously spreading......

Classic response from the presenter 'thanks for your text, I don't agree with you but good luck for the season, well apart from any Dundalk match'

stop sniffing that diesel your brethren are peddling and get your head ouuta your ass.
do any of the dundalk fans on here have any semblance of rationality to their posts or is it all the "in-like- Maxi" approach with them?

Dalymountrower -if bohs can keep their first X11 fit & healthy there's no reason they shouldnt target 5th place.
pi$$y pants is destroying Shligo, and Derry are going backwards under pizza.
Keith Long is definitely a manger for the future, and has the nous to do very well at bohs.

oehhh i feel all weird now saying nice things about boez!

What's the tune pal? Sloop John B?

Apparently yes, obviously not. Did the linesman flag for it or was it the refs call?

I 'll have one of whatever you were drinking when you posted that PC!
Looking forward to renewed hostilities when you visit Dalymount for the clash of the Local Authority tenants..

Referee's as far as I remember. I don't think the linesman was up with the play.

It was the refs call, right in front of us and he blew straight away. Rogers should have gone but it should just have been a free. Should never have come to that anyway, the two centre halves let it bounce between them.

At the time I was sure Doyle was signalling for a free kick, then seemed to change his mind! Terrible stuff but hardly surprising really.

For what it's worth, I was sitting further down the main stand and it looked like he pointed at the box. Definitely didn't look like he raised his arm for a free.

No matter what he initially signal, he clearly made the wrong call.

Looked the same to me to be honest. It was a bit of a dramatic movement but he defintely pointed towards the penalty spot.

We just keep getting worse. My god. A terrible derry team beat us handy. I knew we were going to be bad this year but I have been shocked by the genuine lack of quality in every team I've seen play so far this season.

Longford are the best side I've seen at the Cross this season. The are solid, soaked up a lot of pressure and caused us problems.

First goal came from a Billy Dennehy cross that went over the keeper hit the post and bounced down to an unmarked Garry Buckley. Second was a direct free kick from Colin Healy from the side of the box that he hit in between head and waist height that no one got a touch on.

Longford fans were impressive, only about 10 of them but they never stopped singing.

That's the worst thing. A lot of teams have come and done nothing special at all, and still walked away with 3 points.

Great to see a team with the confidence to come to Oriel and attack. Galway were terrific in the first half, they controlled the game with intensity and good ball control. They deserved a goal for their good play but just couldn't get behind Dundalk's defence.

Galway gave away a needless penalty when the defender misjudged McMillans pace and clipped him as he was running away from goal. There was no need to make the tackle.

Once Galway had to chase the game they were vulnerable on the break.

However, after seeing the likes of Drogheda and Longford come to Oriel and park the bus, Galway's approach was refreshing.

Richie Towell will be happy with his hat-trick. However, he is still not at his best but is getting better with each game.

Is this season over yet??? Sh*te again tonight, Drogheda are awful, dropping 2 points at home to them is criminal

That was a crazy tackle from the American lad for the Dundalk penalty.

Just back from Tallaght. Rovers were alright but Bray were terrible, although to be fair they had to play the same XI as on Friday whereas we made changes. A better attacking team than us would have hit a couple more goals. A bit worried Danny North still isn't fit enough to make a proper appearance - kept on the bench tonight and presumably never came on because of Webster's injury. Hope he's not out for too long because he's been immense for us.

Agree with the Limerick fans, nothing special about Derry but won easy enough. Keeper should do some kicking practice this week.

And that was far from our best XI (know ye were missing key players as well) Dave Sully only came on as a sub and had an immediate impact, TC should have had him on earlier as it was game over as soon as Healy made it 2-0 (Healy was a joy to watch tonight). Also Pat Sullivan out for us which was a shock to us all, will be interesting to hear why he missed out. Aymen Ben Moahmed with another big impact for us but like sully didn't start as we have a massive game against Drogheda on Friday. Should take at least a point off them.

st pats will drop a lot more points with forward play like last night. abysmal up front. their 2nd goal was a gift from drogs defence. tons of posession but when it came to finishing off moves it was panic stations or ignore the obvious lay off for a chance of personal glory.

I don't know about that penalty given against Garcia for taking down McMillan. Looks like he threw himself down or fell over.

We were terrible last night! Started the game ok, but once Rovers scored that was it! Fahey was poor in the 1st half and gave the ball away a lot but then his quality showed with his crosses for the goals! I wasnt expecting to get anything from the game, Saturday will be the big one for us! The sooner we get our new manager the better!

I was only a few feet away. Garcia thought he was going to get to the ball comfortably. McMillan came from the blind side, nipped in ahead of him and Garcia caught him.

I thought we did OK up until you took the lead, we stayed Rovers and created a few chances but once the goal went in, which was offside, you dominated the game in every area. Really should have won by 5 or 6. The big game for us will be on Saturday against Galway

Has the caretaker not done a good job though? Thought most bray fans would be keen to keep him (I know he can't stay on more than 60 days due to license) but more than likely a token manager will be appointed and he will still call the shots as we've seen at LOI clubs in the past.

90 days far as I know. But I too thought this Polish fella was very highly thought of around Bray and a lot of people pushing for him to look after the first team on a permanent basis.

Maybe the keeper coach should do some too as O Donnell is making the same mistakes since game one.
