Bye bye Premier! Hello graveyard!
*sigh*
Welcome!
Taylor going for a very young side again up in Derry.
Cusack, Kelly, Whitehead, Folan, Murphy, Bradley, O'Leary, Tiofack, Sheedy, Gaffney
Subs: Murray, Feeney, McGrath, Hanlon, Rainsford, Costello, Williams.
Cork City 3-0 St. Pats HT. Should be more.
Shels 1-2 UCD
One of those games that could end 5-4.
Kind of like an early welcome to the graveyard for Shels. :)
In fairness, it's fun, if not great technically.
Mervue still on course to balls up the play-offs. Could easily be an ET job though.
2-1 Longford. ET looms without another goal.
Harsh lesson being thought to our young lads up in Derry. 5-0
Mervue a man down, ten minutes to go!
ET in City Calling. Mervue's Manning was sent off, two yellows. We'll see who has the legs now.
Longford lead Mervue 3-1
We might have a viable play-off after all, but wouldn't put it past Mervue to force kicks!
Mervue score! 3-3 on aggregate!
Longford win out on penalties. Mervue miss all three of there's, Longford do the opposite.
Sympathy for Mervue squad, they just wouldn't die. But Longford had a great comeback tonight, and at least the league has a play-off with a bit of meaning now.
Love the Shannonsider FM guys btw.
It's a rarity for promotion/relegation to go through the full motions.Quote:

6th place finish, a bit meh but at least we should qualify for the Setanta Cup if that goes ahead in whatever shape or form. And we finished ahead of Limerick comfortably in the end. Could be worse, we could be Shels!
Also, congrats to Longford on the playoff win.
Delighted to have the privilege of following Bohs in the Premier Division for another year anyway.
Bohs will be sending a box of Roses to Oriel Park! I'm not sure many outside of Dundalk were expecting them in the top 5 after last season. While disappointed I'm sure to lose out on the title in recent weeks, fair play to them for a good season!Quote:

The 'pundit' for the night was our very own Mark Salmon!Quote:

Very young indeed.
Thought Limerick actually played alright in the first half. Once the second goal went in though, they just gave up.
FYI: the Limerick lads who were in the social club after the match, ye forgot your megaphone.
Thank god :)Quote:
