Brilliant! - Ive just got in from work & am very impressed with the results:ball:

I know Drogs let in a late goal, but they are still in the driving seat for the home leg & Derry getting the late goal & by all accounts playing very well

better update your rankings again, stu.*

*ranking change subject to the results of later matches. :D

Portadown are 2-0 DOWN to the Lithuanians ???????

Thats awful stuff lads and doesnt help us here in terms of catching them :mad:

Well done to both teams. Great results!:)

Also, fair play to Aertel for keeping us all up to date. Still have Derry 0-0 and Drogs 1-0 up:rolleyes:.

The Gothenburg bars will be rubbing their hands now!!! Wot a result, heroic win, great overall for the EL!!!

Our last four matches in europe:

Shels 1 - 0 Odense
Cork 1 - 0 Limissol
Gotenburg 0 - 1 Derry City
Helsinki 1 - 1 Drogheda

Now they are good to see...shame we went out on agg...

Thats right - but at this stage last year didn't we have the full 1 point? (Was it Shels/Longford/Cork all with first leg wins?)

This week:

P4 W3 D1 L0 F4 A1

:)

So far in Europe this year, Irish teams have played 7 games, winning 5, drawing 1, and losing 1...

Yeah, but compare the opposition!

Limassol, HJK and Goteborg versus Carmarthen, Ekranes and Glentoran. Much more impressive results this year.

Big congratulations to both Derry and Drogheda. Despite the late equaliser in Helsinki, I'd say Drogheda would have settled for a 1-1 draw away from home.

Fabulous result for Derry in Sweden!

That Derry result must be one of the best in Europe in recent years? There've been a few, but not many away wins against so much higher ranked teams who have as much European experience as Goteborg?

Shels vs Hadjuk, Deportivo at home, Steaua at home, Odense at home, Lille at home

Cork's Intertoto and UEFA wins.

Derry vs Gotenburg and now Drogs draw.

All great recent results.

Problem is Shels away loss to Odense, Longfords poor show last year, Shels vs Hibernians, etc etc that we need to rid oursleves of!!!

By now, it's to be expected that NL sides get through one round of Europe at least.

Totally agree - this year's are all good results against teams seeded against us.

No it's not. We're currently still cropping up unseeded most of the time. Until we are seeded we're not expected to win any tie. We can hope, but it's still a feat to do so.

In fairness Shels defeat to OB is hardly comparable to the other 2 results.

Derry brought 4/500 to sweden :eek: :) :ball:
