They were bleak enough at times in the First Division. Generally had a solid 2-300 if memory serves though

Im going for Waterford over Mons (8/11-pp)
Cobh over Salthill
and a draw in the Galw-Bray game (maybe Bray might sneak it in end)
What's the odds on a Mons penalty more interestingly..
Monaghan v Bray Wanderers Final
Hope Mons go up!!!
Fair play Mons. Any criticism of the referee shouldn't take from the fact that we were second best all night, and were beaten by two good goals (and one soft one).
Best of luck against Bray.
Fair play to Galway and Monaghan. I thought the games would've gone the other way. I'll leave of predictions for the final! I'd like to see Monaghan make it though.
Any news on TV coverage for this? I remember TG4 showing the second leg at least live last year.
Roo, do you know if any local radio in the Bray area will be providing commentary on Friday? (Am only flying home for the second leg)
Our local station do not cover games live but do give regular updates live from the ground - EastCoast.FM
I'd ask the same if any stations in Monaghan are covering it on Radio as i'm not to sure if i can get off work in time yet.... How long would it take? Hour and a half?
Depends where you're starting from and when you leave. There's motorway almost all the way. I know I've gotten out to Athlone from UCD in about 1 hr 45 mins; similar to Monaghan I'd say.
Accoring to Google Maps, you should allow 1 hr, 50 mins from the Carlisle to Gortakeegan. Or 1 day 5 hrs if you decide to walk!
Ah I'm sure we can push the speed limit a little bit, was back in Bray by 12ish on Tuesday :)
once you hit the airport its about 1hr 20minsand i dont mean flying
what are the mondogs ? ha , geting a little hungry :L
2nd best food in the Airtricity League apparently after Burdocks in Dalymount.
looking foward to this now :L
Paddy Powers cant split them for tomorrow nights game:
Monaghan Utd 6/4 Draw 11/5 Bray Wanderers 6/4
Monkey on a Draw for me.
I hope you win your bet. Hope its a 0-0 though.
Away goals don't count in the play-off. Didn't when we were last in it anyway.
Oh I thought the did Stu. Not so bad.
So who alls heading to Monaghan tonight?
Me...well since I live in Gortakeegan am already here! :D
A great piece on the Mons website today Reasons why Monaghan will lose and reasons why they wont By Adrian Harte. Made me chuckle and almost chuck up with nervous all in one go!
Go Mons go !!!
Wishing you all the best for the week-end, did state early season had an inkling you were going to have a good season. Obviously and don't take offence you by your own standards have had an exceptional season, but don't let it end there. PLEASE GO FOR IT AND DO IT !!! If it was deemed to be your season then not your fault Div 1 was given Derry & Cork this year, so to push Derry as you did was exceptional re your norm. So lets not be the bridesmaid this is your year DO IT !
And as they said in some film "Believe and they will come" so heres to traffic jams heading west from the town centre.
GO MONS GO !!
Reading that post reminds of a harvey norman ad
come on mons make me proud, I know some kildare county fans have adopted you as their own :D
I know....now I hope that we win at least 2-0 on monday
I'd wish ye well except I can sympathise with Bray's position. We were the same in 2007 - given a week's notice that we were in the Premier (delighted we were, but screwed from the start). Don't know who I want to win.
Just home from Monaghan and Im still wondering how Monaghan didnt win by at least 3 goals! Decent enough crowd there on a crappy wet and windy night. Was a very entertaining nil nil game!
I know Dillonman, was a bit of a shocker that we didnt win. Oh well hopefully we can do it Monday. Nice meeting you btw!
As Andy "knows everything" Gray says, you can't afford to keep missing 'em...
Hopefully the game will go ahead on Monday, hopefully Mons don't pay for it..
0-0 gives Bray the advantage in the second leg. Still don't know who I want to win - I like both clubs.
The one plus for us is that we are good on the road so hopefully we can do it.
