Not sure if I speak for the majority of bohs fans, but there wasn't a good riddance vibe as far as i could tell..

Ahh Burt had very consistent injury issues before he left Bohs. Obviously in his last season some of it could be him playing up small knocks to get out of playing for a manager/coach/club he had fallen out with but even prior to that he was consistently popping up as doubtful in pre match injury reports. Great player when fit but him staying fit is the problem.

The dodgy automated camera captured Leo Gaxha's stunning strike at least!

ive not watched a lot of kerry since the first round of games. how is he doing? early on he looked like a big stand out for them. I think he can easily be a PD player.

He is the stand out player alright. He has been well marked though after the first few games, the rest of the division knowing he is the main threat. Cork, Galway or Waterford in the Premier Division next year might be his route to playing at a higher level.

What's the latest with Trevor Clarke? We look very one paced without him and Farrugia. I'd prefer Farrugia to play further forward, directly running at the last line of defence rather than working his way up the pitch.

He's gone for another 9 months or so Stutts. Had an operation. It's a huge blow. Between Scales ,Lyons and Clarke we've done a lot of damage down the left over the past few seasons and we don't look the same without it. Kavo just doesn't offer the same threat. Farrugia could be back for the second leg thankfully. Tomorrow could be a bit of a slog.

His skills are really very good. And I think he will soon move to a higher level.
