Drogheda beat Derry 4-1 with Derry's new signing John Coffie getting sent off.

Another straight red for Rovers in pre season game in Spain, it has been an impressive record under Bradley's watch
Namby pamby European referees :)
This had better improve when the season kicks off, the multiple suspensions hurt us last year.
At this rate Sean Connors red card record from 2009 could be under threat
What was the record? you have to have a target in life :)Quote:

I think it was the 2014 or 2015 season where Harps had 14 red cards through the season.
Including a red for Seannie himself this highly disciplined group managed to amass 20 red cards. This included 3 in a famous 2-2 draw with Sligo (Dundalk pipped Sligo to a Euro spot as a result), Dave Rogers getting a mooning red (& a P45 & unfair dismissals compo), Fabio getting 2 cards for dissent that ruled him out for a trip back to Drogheda where he previously had a pigs head flung at him) and Mental Mickey just picking up random cards for the craic.
That was certainly a colourful season at Dundalk
20 is quite ambitious ,
I actually am hopeful that we will be more disciplined this year, the suspensions killed us last year not to mention the points in the actual matches.
we will see
Remember coaching staff also count. So if Darren Dillon. Glenn Cronin and Bradser remain true to form its possible. Two reds in preseason is an impressive start from the players.Quote:

That's competitive. So first opportunity to have a crack at the record is tommorow night.
Considering rovers were playing today in Portugal mochtas must be licking their lips
What if a player who is part of the senior Harps squad gets sent off in the Ulster Senior League?
Another one of those “if a tree falls in the woods..” type philosophical questions of our time. The answer is no doubt equally unclear.
No way! The Atlantic Cup is competitive. Rovers on 2 reds, 18 to go!Quote:

I see Michael O'Connor has made a good impression at Finn Park.Quote:

Why would he change a winning formula?
We were both losers winning is all that matters lads. 2nd is just first place loser,
Can't wait for the football to start at this point.
Dundalk 2 Brentford B 1
Good run out for Dundalk against a good footballing side.
Enjoyable match and certainly not a typical preseason friendly. Brentford have an edge to their play. It could be tasty when they play Rovers at the weekend.Quote:

Very good pre-season game for Dundalk.The young-guns from Brentford definitely got stuck-in in the 1st half which was much to Dundalks surprise.Quote:

Connolly hasn't set himself on fire for us yet and he needs to start doing that fast.
Hoban not even on a team sheet since he's got here is not a good sign :confused:
Great attitude from us on Wednesday though,side looks to be clicking together.
Pats 12 - 0 Sure Sport FC (could have been a lot worse) and he blew it up two minutes early, just hand his the league trophy now.
You've you get past us first!
(Who are Sure Sport?)
Some American club from Maryland. We played them during the week and won 4-0. I think Wexford played them too.
I was at our game against them on Tuesday. They came out for their warm up 15 min before kick off in tracksuit bottoms and their keeper was wearing our kit and played in tracksuit bottoms. They looked like a bunch of lads out for a game of Astro. We played crap and won 4-0 I actually said to the lads with me if pats played a full team they’d win 11-0, I wasn’t far off. Whoever invited these over needs to shake their heads total waste of time playing games like that.
Sure Sports were so comically bad, it started to get a bit awkward towards the end just watching it. They're no team at all. They really wouldn't be any better than you're average hungover Sunday League side. They looked like a group of mates who won a competition to play Pat's at Richmond in the final pre-season game.

Exactly ! Seriously though, I don't think I've seen a weaker team at Richmond. It was so easy. Nothing learned from it in terms of the coming season, but on the other hand a nice run out with a few goals can't do any harm I suppose.Quote:
