Pats and Dundalk maybe have a slight chance if they can keep the runs going and maybe add a bit of quality in July(a striker in our case) Sligo IMO have absolutely no chance of winning the league...will be a great achievement if they can finish in top 4 from thier current standing.I think they are the most overrated team in the league,Pats and Fingal way better(just my opinion)

The way we are now in the league we really dont have a hope in hell of winning or challenging for the league.
Its a shame because if you look at our team on paper we should be up there without a shadow of a doubt.
But in reality the team hasnt clicked or built up any form of consistancey or any real sign of a game plan.
We have one of the best squads in the country but one of the most over rated managers in the country also.
Nice guy but utterly clueless when put up in comparison to a tactically savy manager like Fenlon.

Fair play to the Shamrock rovers fans, in the second half they really spured their team on, never stopped singing. Really made for a great atmosphere. Still unbeaten against Rovers and in Tallaght :)

I'd say at this moment in time Fingal have the best right side in the league, certainly the best I've seen this season. It's not often that Danny Murphy gets totally destroyed. Great saves by both keepers as well. Dissappointed with conceding but it would've been a travesty had Fingal lost the game. As for Quigley, it's no secret he wants out've Bohs already 'training's too hard'(you couldn't make it up), so it'll be interesting how Nutsy deals with it.

I thought Danny Murphy did pretty well, can only think of him being beaten badly once and he got away with pulling the man down. It was an excellent game of football, Rovers could have been 2 up in the first 10 minutes, after that Fingal probably had the better of the first half and the second half was very open. Mannus pulled off 2 of the best point blank saves I've ever seen live, it was a pity he made a couple of errors on crosses and one of them cost the equaliser.

How are people saying Quigley isn't that type of player... He just proved he is ffs... That would be like someone murdering someone, but it's ok because he doesn't usually murder people...

Yep. Last season's fans player of the year. He is our Paul Scholes.;)
7 was Conan Byrne. That was one of his better perormances this season. Starting to get back to his best.

when can you remember him putting in a tackle like that before??

It doesn't matter if he hasn't done it before... I'll go back to my murder analogy... If a person murders someone, but hasn't done it before... Does that mean they're not a murderer? NO.... So use the same logic with Quigley... He showed he's a scumbag by putting in a malicious, leg breaking tackle like that... Whether he's done it before or not...

Thought the officials were poor; neither linesman seemed to understand the offside, and Galway's equaliser seemed to me to be straight out of the 1950s charge-the-keeper-into-the-net school. Our own equaliser was hilarious though, with Bazza slipping for a back-pass and being tackled two yards out.

Thought we maybe had more of the game - think Bazza was certainly the busier of the two keepers - but can't really argue with a draw in the end.

Good game at Terryland with good football by both sides on a shocking pitch.
I wouldn't agree with two superb keeping performances. Ryan made two good saves, but was at fault for the second goal and could've done more for the first. I thought UCD's keeper Brennan looked a bit suspect under the high ball as shown by Flood's goal amongst others.

Speaking from a Galway perspective, felt it was harsh taking McBrien off after only 30 minutes. Doesn't do much for his confidence and Creaney coming in did nothing of note. I feel we've a real problem on the left side, and look to be missing O'Brien a lot. Meynell doesn't offer the same attacking option as Conneely on the other side which means that we look pretty predictable.

To be honest it's hard to know who had more of the game, it was end to end stuff. One team attacks then the other. Good fun though.

Fairplay on that, was appreciated by the massive travelling support. :D

Less appreciated were the busy ball axe of a steward that was near us and that lad "chalky" in the programme could do with having a word with himself. (your own article was decent)

Overall though, a very good trip, we were very well looked after and I hope we were watching the end of season top 2 last night. :D*

*we weren't. :o
