Tommy Dunne had a year and about a third left on his contract so that'll need paying. Plus the lower crowds due to his teams 'performances'. Must take a toll on the coffers.Quote:

No comments on this evenings games yet?
Arguably one of the biggest 2 matches so far, you would think Sligo really do have to win.
Also it will be interesting to see Derry's response to last Friday.
C'mon Derry and da DrogsQuote:

Derry look to have crumbled - desperately hoping they prove me wrong tonight, although it won't matter if we don't do the biz.
Hopefully drogs lose, need to keep them behind us. Cant see anything other than a pats win up in derry
Pat's 1-0 up after only three minutes through a Killian Brennan free-kick.
Any links? Can't find one myself.
Literally just switched on Setanta and the first thing I heard was Felix complaining about the Derry keeper kicking it long and it being a 70-50 ball.
Thought Derry were unfortunate with the free - very soft - but they've been like rabbits in the headlights ever since. Going to get whipped here if they don't get the ball down and hold a bit of possession.

At least Derry gave it a go in the second half. Pats seem to run out of steam in the second half of games.
Is it too early to consider Sligo out of title race now?
Not out of it yet, but certainly very long shots now.Quote:

The positive from tonight for Sligo (and Dundalk & Pats) is that euro qualification is closer to be secured.
Shamrock Rovers will be delighted with those results tonight.
We're out of it. Two horse race.
Played very well in patches tonight but still not good enough. Drogs could easily have won it at the end when they were catching us on the break. Very small crowd.
It's been a 2 horse race since they lost in Oriel.Quote:

Our game against Dundalk on the 20th could see the biggest league crowd in Inchicore in the last 14 years.
It's at least the third match in a row where Pats play in their away blue kit. One of them was at home and another against a green and white team. Did somebody spoil the red shirts while washing?
I wouldn't say it was a 2 horse race since Oriel but last night was always going to be a huge night for us. If we had won and Pats drawn as opposed to the other way around we would have been 3 points behind both teams. Still haven't been playing well enough at all to win it this year.Quote:
