It really is a funny oul game.
Yeah I was just looking at the table, mad what 2 wins has done for ye.Quote:

Outside distraction of an unbeaten season is gone, now let's get this title wrapped up, the sooner the better.
Seems that you and El Pietro were at different matchesQuote:

Don't give the opposition an excuse in those areas when your chance of making the tackle cleanly is so low. McCarthy is very young though and will learn. He did his leaving cert in June.Quote:

Horrible to lose it at home especially. Plenty still to play for, perhaps we won't win the league in the next week or two but we will win it with a good few games to spare. With the unbeaten thing out of the way no excuse not to put our full focus on the cups once we have the title wrapped up. Hopefully we can give the treble a good run but we have no divine right to either of them, and as Pats/Rovers well know Cup victories are not easy, no matter how badly you want them.Quote:

Bohs have scuppered a couple of unbeaten runs the last few years.
Well I suppose after every win we got the focus on going unbeaten intensified in the media. It is disappointing to lose it, and at home too. But I guess no one thought we'd get to 23 games to only lose our first game. Drogheda is a good game to bounce back in though, almost certain to go down you would think.Quote:

They would be in command of the chase for the 2nd EL place bar players out imo.
Just for a bit of balance, Bohs were the only team to lose to the record-breaking Galway team in 2011 as well.
He was going down easily all night, he knows what he's doing and it's very frustrating to watch.Quote:

Thank you. I said it knowing someone would post exactly this in response :cool: Silly foul by McCarthy really though as akinade was going wide, bit of inexperience maybe. Just one of those nights, had plenty of opportunities to equalize but just weren't clinical enough.Quote:

The Bohemians/Shamrock half and half scarves must be doing a roaring trade up in dublin.
One man team..
:D 29pts back etc.Quote:

Ye are frauds. Big dublin derby my hole. :D
To be fair to the Cork ones, Akinade is a wile man for hurling himself to the ground on the slightest contact. It's desperate to watch.Quote:

Akinade loves to invite contact and then hit the ground, and he's good at it too. So is Ogbene for us.
Are the cork fans on here seriously suggesting that the man who pled guilty to the sexual assault and attempted defilement of a teenage girl is of questionable character?!
:D genuine lol.Quote:

He was 16.Quote:
