Ah right. Was it last night? Awful night for a game you wouldn't want to be standing out in it anyway. Tonight's not much better.Quote:

1 nil to Bray
Any Longford lads know how the CCS pitch is holding up and do ye expect the game to be on Friday night?
He was meant to be off to Canada before the start of the season, gave that as the reason why he wasn't signing with Harps, no matter how much the club tried to convince him otherwise. Big loss either way to us.Quote:

anyone at the Bray Longford town friendly was there a teamsheet produced as I am looking for a copy of it. What was the town team does anyone know?
Unless, I'm overlooking someone, that's about it. And Raf's no spring chicken now. We've had some good fortune tapping/pillaging Mayo, Galway and Donegal - long may it continue - but our own well has run pretty dry.Quote:

Not sure who scored but know it was a trialist. The starting line up was:Quote:

Unsure of the longford team but they have a good squad this year so a win is a good result
Conor O'Grady also.Quote:

No need to pay referees either!
Galway FC playing Dundalk next Tuesday night in Fahy's Field, Mervue.
Latest from Deacy Park tonight is Limerick are 1-0 up, Shane Tracy with the goal.
Yep, I didn't forget Conor but didn't think it was worth mentioning him as he's retired.Quote:

I'm told by an ex work mate who had to stand tight to the bus to try and get a bit of shelter (lousy night weather wise) that it was Ciaran Byrne as well, nice goal, moved to a ball just outside the box curled it up over the longford players (who should have ran to close him down but didn't) and into the top of the net, Hunt had no chance, lots of running and passing but not much end product from both teams, keepers had very little to do over the 90 odd mins,
thats a FT score now.Quote:

Galway look like a decent side. We weren't great tonight with a lot of younger lads getting a run. Galway look to be playing decent football though and i'd imagine they'll do well this season.
Decent crowd?Quote:

We bring on three of the kids, and five minutes later Ards get one back #teachablemoment
Finished Rovers 3-2 Ards after being 3-0 up and subbing in the young lads. Worries about depth not laid to rest.
I thought the 2nd half was slightly better not much though lovely goal from Athlone new signings didnt fill me with confidence early days man of the match for me was the groundsman
I wasn't there but I'd read absolutely nothing into a pre season game played on a night like this, in terms of the team or individuals. 8 new players settling in too. Galway away March 7th is what it's all about.Quote:

A worthwhile game on a night that wasn't made for football.
And we're going to win the league.
That's the spirit.Quote:

I think Drogheda will be the happier team with their performance. They looked tight and were creative when they had the ball.
Dundalk had a lot of the ball but did very little with it.
Totally agree with you Longfordian don't care if they lose all the friendlies
Yeh weather didnt help tonight. We were the better team but neither team could do too much with that horrible wind and rain.
Sure ye're the big Premier Division team gracing the neighbours with a glamour friendly ;)Quote:

Reasonable lineup by Longford, four ex premier team players in starting 11. Athlone's starting 11 contained 8 of Roddy's squad from last year. Cooke's squad looks light overall. Could be a problem with a view to survival.
Most of our new players didnt start though. Although i do agree we need a few more signings.
