thought the first sending off for Dundalk was a inbetweener you see reds dished out for those tackles but I wouldnt have been incensed if he had stayed on the pitch either, as for JJ Melligan the man is a moron he deserved what he got the last time we played Dundalk is richmond he was at it aswell.
Won't be for a long while i'd imagineQuote:

Crumlin are a handy side and never stopped trying to play the ball on the deck.
Kevin McHugh looking to be back to the player he was 5 years ago. That's 8 goals in 9 at home for him now.
Drogheda have improved a lot on the times we played them earlier in the season. We passed it around really well though; one superb goal and one which was superb if he meant it! MNS will show all. Drogheda could maybe consider they did enough to earn a draw - Billy had to make a couple of good saves, although apparently we were denied a clear peno in the first few minutes - but all in all, a good day's work.
Sligo only scoring one against Athlone was interesting. Hopefully that's their scoring spurt out of the way. :)
What's the story with a couple of posters wanting to be away to Limerick? Is it just Sligo fans?
We're obviously not the easiest away draw, considering the Belgrove V Avondale United tie.
I can only conclude people want to have the Jackman Park experience.
good game of footie in dundalk last night
the 3 sending off were sending offs
the first one came over the ball with his studs
2nd stuck his finger up at a pats fan
3rd he kicked out at guthrie
i think dundalk deserved what they got, did anyone else notice just before half time there were ball boys at all ends of the pitch, none for the 2nd half
disgraceful time wasting ploy by dundalk.
cracking save by cherrie from the header, think it was from alex williams, we hit the post twice and crossbas as well
on the dundalk fans, they have some neck branding the renter fans as hooligans, after last night, throw stuff onto the pitch and the abuse was so strong towards buttimer he couldnt go back in after the full time whistle
by the way dundalk fans there is 2 L's in till, their banner had Dundalk Til I Die
forgot to say as for that scumbag of a steward putting one of our fans in a headlock, for celebrating the goal, although he was on the pitch, what a little knacker he was
I thought you were supposed to be videoing the game!Quote:

It's the only league ground I haven't visited, so I wouldn't mind a game there either.Quote:

Don't know why people complain about this. Every single club i the world has done it mulitple timesQuote:

The second two were definite sendings off. The first was not a red card. It wasn't nearly as bad as this tackle that Buttimer only considered a yellow card offence http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gygQaKe-QI8 (45seconds in).Quote:

Oh and the problem with the steward wasn't that he put the lad in the headlock (which was slightly OTT) but that he then tried to get into the Pats crowd to start another fight
I think people want to see for themselves what life was like in the nineteenth century:D:DQuote:

Paul Williams has carved a career out of this sort of nonsense.
Bohs away for me please, we no need no crummy cup run.
I think on reflection and after a day, I will say Pats did deserve that win, to be fair they plugged away patiently all during the second half and the goal when it came although very disappointing for us, was inevitable. So good luck to them for the rest of the cup. 49 years is a long wait !
On our supporters behaviour, I dont like a small element in that shed who appear intent on causing trouble, 2 plastic bottles thrown on the pitch last night for eg, and some indentified as the same crew from the UCD game, I would hope the club can go one bit further now and ban them. It is a very small element, and I think Danthesaint is making quite a sweeping statement re 'on the dundalk fans, they have some neck branding the renter fans as hooligans, after last night, throw stuff onto the pitch and the abuse was so strong towards buttimer he couldnt go back in after the full time whistle
Yes there was a lot of vocal disapproval of the ref at the end, and he did indeed have to be escorted off, but a lot of this was high emotions at the end of a very dramatic game.
