Glad theres people gleaned somethin to be proud of from that cork performance, twould be a long oul season otherwise. :good:

Limerick up to 5th great first season back so far still look back with some if onlys 1up up in derry going into last few mins 2up in dundalk in last 10 but have to be more than happy with performances so far.
all true.. not being bitter or anything but the ref really was a joke today.. better performance from us today, just a shame limerick had 12 menQuote:

He started off injured, that was why.Quote:

Thought we were only ok today. Very very shaky at the back. Morrissey kept picking the ball up between our two centre halves and they just kept letting him do it while all it would have taken was one of them to mark him a little tighter.
Browne gifted Behan his goal and we were very slack defensively for Duggans, no one picking men up. Some shocking defending from set pieces from Cork for our goals also and a gift from McNulty.
We are still a few players away from being a top team but the result was all that counts. 5th in the league is better than we could have imagined and only for a few lapses in concentration in some games we could be in an even better position.

id say from where ye were it looked a bad one, but for me he got the ball.. some bad defending cost us today and the missing of some great chances coupled with some good saves by ryan especially the double save a few minutes after ye scored your second.. can be a bit satisfied the performance was better and that there was a bit of fight in us after going down to ten.. so frustrated with the season so far, we badly need to start getting a few wins cos its getting so painfulQuote:

Great performance from us today, Derry being shown up for the ordinary team they are. Definitely over-rated.
Good result for Limerick to win away to Cork. Was there more bite in this derby than the first game of the season?
On current form, it's hard to see any side outside the top 7 being in the top 7 at the end of the season.

yeah was a shocking miss alright like should be scoring those and thats why he starts on the bench he has just not been good enough.. kavanagh missed a 1on1 the other night too against pats and we need to be putting those kind of chances away.. tommy looking for a striker in the transfer window so it will be interesting to see who he can get inQuote:

I like Foran as a player but overall the back four don't seem good enough to play the ball out every single time. Ledwith looks like an absolute gem, I'd gladly see Powell spend the rest of the season on the bench.
Of all the teams I've seen this season, Dundalk were probably even worse than UCD.
Disappointing performance against Shamrock Rovers. I thought we should have caused them more problems but didn't pass the ball well enough.
The pitch didn't help. It was very dry, bobbly, and erratic for a bouncing ball. They should water the pitch beforehand if they want to see good football.
Rovers adapted better and played a lot of long balls while Dundalk tried to pass it but lost possession too often.
Rovers were worthy winners on the night. However, we have them on a decent pitch for the next league game and should do a lot better.
I'm not sure how it was down your end, but the pitch was heavily watered down the other side. You could see the water fizzing up for the entire first half.Quote:

On fridays game sligo really are turning into a total snide team, diving all over the place, faking injuries, time wasting in the first half and a general 70's Leeds type approach to away games.
I know the Hoops won't get close to the title this season, so I hope the fook Derry or Pat's do.
