One of my fondest LOI moments involved Russell. A Limerick player was played into space, great chance, made a mess of his first touch, amounted to nothing.Quote:

Rovers back to playing utter muck , lots of possession but no end product … Drogs created one chance and scored a beauty… and Danny Mandriou shows his petulant side and gets a red
Hope everyone enjoyed this excellent joke. Played some unknown fella from the academy tonight and he's only gone and banged in a hat trick.Quote:

Ruaidhrí Higgins will be glad to see us anyway,we’ll get them back on track on Friday no doubt!
Fairplay to Tunde, took his goals lovely. I don’t know how Bohs didn’t score in the first half. I thought Joe Anang play brilliant tonight.
I’d take that crystal ball back for a refund anyway 😀Quote:

To be honest Bohs were very good first half, and there was a period when an equaliser looked like it had to come. Joe Anang made some super saves. Second goal just before half time was the decisive moment. We were fairly comfortable second half. Joe Redmond outstanding again at the back, and Adam O’Reilly worked his socks off in the middle. Great to get the win and improved performance after the horror show that was last Friday.
Mad league though, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Rovers lose to Drogs, and wtf has happened to Derry ? The wheels really seem to have come off since they battered us in Inchicore.
Wasn’t expecting that Pats performance after the horror show last Friday. So comfortable second half. Bohs will need to improve their form ahead of their campaign in the newly founded UEFA Europa Friendly Championship over in Berlin.
Has anyone checked on that Derry fan on here who claims they’re the only good team in the country?
Weekend winners by a mile are Dundalk, like the old bus joke, waiting for one, then two come at once, no away wins then two on the trot.
No extra points for this, but with the madness of Rovers and Derry both losing we have now lost the least games, 2.
Tonight v Harps it was a hard fought win v the gloss v Derry, but 6 points on the road, amazing weekend. Happy to be solid in 3rd, whatever happens after this is a bonus, Pats at home on Friday, hash tag tasty.
Bohs in the second half were as bad as Pats were on Friday.
Are there any actual good teams in the league?
Celebrations in United Park were unreal, pitch invasion like league winners!
Derry looked like they expected us to roll over after conceding a farcical equaliser and to be honest, so did most people in the ground I'd wager.
Deserved the win I felt. Great to see a bit more energy in our play. Hopefully something to build on but I'm not discounting the possibility of losing away to UCD.
Higgins and Bradley under pressure ;) Bucko will be lurking! Dundalk FC just at this moment are league contenders mwahahaha!
This league really is nuts. Derry 2 points from 15 after such a good start. Rovers just not clinical enough, yet still 7 points ahead. Shels and Dundalk world beaters all of a sudden. Pat’s, Sligo and Bohs can’t string two results together…. Never mind the rest…
The players need to put that effort in the whole time. Need to back it up on Friday. Pitch finally in good knick.Quote:

I was going to really resent not being in Europe this summer. Now I'm looking forward to the testing the thesis that our European sides cough up points when distracted from domestic affairs! We could lose to Pats and Slgo next games but that would be awful dull compared to nabbing 6 points before Rovers visit and a Dublin Derby after - could be nip and tuck at the top by then;) and then the stresses of Europe....Dundalk FC 2022 League Champions...im sure some are losing the run of themselves!Quote:

Shels were better than us but weren't great and I never really fancied them to score if we hadn't helped them along the way.
Felt match night with plenty of storylines in the league.
-Shels are only four points off 4th with a game in hand. Outside chance of Europe now. (Didn't see that coming).
-Derry in freefall. No idea what is happening there. Suddenly look like a mid table team.
-Rovers losing a game that maybe in previous years they would have steamrolled. Mandriou sent off, and Byrne went off injured. Probably only a small blip, but heres hoping whats in the water at Derry affects them too.
-Looking at Bohs fans online, that performance and result might be Longs final nail in the coffin.
-Great result for Dundalk. I think earlier in the season we would not have got all 3 points. Picked a rotated side, and was enough to see us through. Win the extra game, and we are in second.
