Going to be a long painful season for the Drogs, watching a group of extremely talented players run around like headless chickens in pure frustration due to the tactics of the manager. Doolin has to take full responsibility for the start to this season given his team slections (dropping Byrne FFS) and his subs (Thiam anyone !!!) - but do you think he will take responsibility - not a chance - too busy polishing the chips that are stacked high on this shoulders.
"BobtheDrog" , you must be joking about Brennan (who appears to be a headcase, anyway).....Doolin and his bench were clearly winding him up all first half, (goes to show how focussed the manager was), and as for Robinson, he should have seen straight red for the assault on young Powell!..Stu Byrne scythed Joxer Kelly down as if he was a woodcutter chopping trees!!....the legs are gone for poor Stuart, and as for Gavin/Gartland partnership!!....some people suggested these lads should be in the Irish set-up! :eek: the pressure must be on Doolin now.....Drogs were simply dreadful!...having said that, I thought Bohs were hungry and the lad Cronin did really well in the middle but whatever people say about Burns at centre-half, he is some player....never flustered and never caught for pace!
I agree. Seen him a few times & is really poor. Seems to have no awareness of the other players & takes too much out of the ball usually losing possession. Hope Doolin starts him next week.Quote:

Should be a big crowd for City-Drogs next week & Stuart Byrne will be a big loss.
Massive, massive game. Personally wouldn't say they're out of the race already, especially in a league where you play every team three times giving you more opportunity to gain on rivals, not to mention the fact those at the top will probably keep taking points off one another without anyone really racing ahead.Quote:

I got the Impression from Doolins' post match interview last night, that he's resigned himself to the fact that Drogheda are out of the title raceQuote:

Fair play on the peno,reminded me of helder postiga V England in Euros
it shows to prove that doolin bought the title last season and only for shels demise he mightnt be drogs manager.. they are brutal this year I would like O Brien and Barrett to play from the start.. Gavin Whelan leavin was a bit of surprise... if thats true about doolin winding up brennan doolin deserves everything he gets! thank god he never came to us when he was at ucd.. the sneaky slime..
UCD 2-0 St. Pat's
McMillan 77
Reilly 83
Well UCD had a completely different 11 out from that at the weekend.
We only had three first team players, and only one would be in our best XI. Good few debuts and a good few players who have less than 10 first team appearances. Pats played their reserves, but that included Barry Ryan, Bobby Ryan, Dempsey, Brennan, Guy and Dessie Byrne. Very good performance from our youngsters.
Think Bazza only played because Clarke was injured and Horgan's 40.
But basically, three or four first teamers each.
Ahhhh ballax - don't tell me we're gonna have to win the League Cup again this year....?!?
