2-2 in UCD now. Shels came from behind twice. Pats 3-0 up
Students regain the lead.
Harps v Bray now 2-1
Bohs beat Shams 1-0
Pats thrash Youths 4-1
Great win for the Harps, looking forward to Ollie's gloomy prediction for next season in the Premier Division.
Safe to say Shels won't be welcome on the island of Cobh anytime soon after letting in that iniury time winner. Heartbreaking stuff.
Much much better from Harps. So positive for once.
Anyone know what the playoff schedule will be?
Rovers were muck tonight , 7 yellow Bohs 0, nuff said.
Huge crowd, at leat 3k
Cobh could do with a Limerick win tomorrow. If they get that, then winning their two games would be enough for a playoff spot.
Phew!
93rd minute winner I think it was.
Good game in fairness; we were slightly better for maybe the first hour, but Shels had a really good spell after that and forced Corbet into a number of good saves. Thought they were more likely to get the winner to be honest. But a huge goal for us at the death; but we still need to win next week in Drogheda too, which won't be easy. Unless Cabo do us a rather unlikely favour tomorrow night!
2 poor teams in dalymount, but one was a bunch of kids who will learn.The other was journeymen LOI dross who will never see european football again.
onwards and upwards!:)
Yeah that young whippersnapper Barry Murphy and the childlike GaryMc Cabe are real prospects..Take your oil.Quote:

If by some miracle Longford beat Derry tonight then Wexford will be looking over their shoulder.
Looks like either Longford or Wexford as the Premier Division team in the play-off alright - and you'd imagine Drogheda/Cobh/us will surely fancy our chances there.
Longford would need a big push but to be honest I wouldn't bet on either side to beat the First Division playoff winner.
Wexford have such a depleted squad too. Would hate to see either side go down, but to be honest, I'd like to see Drogheda come up. Handy trip and haven't been there in a few years now.
Here it is!Quote:

If Cabinteely can get anything from Cobh tonight - just kicked off - then it's UCD v Drogheda in the play-offs. Otherwise, it all comes down to next week.
Great coverage on eir Sport, miles better than RTE's.
It would be pretty funny if Drogs missed out on the playoffs considering how far ahead they were 2 weeks ago. Cobh just need to beat the bottom 2 now to guarantee a playoff spot.
Drogheda missing their captain can't help for next week's match (home v UCD)
Cabo and Athlone have taken points off Drogheda and UCD in the past two weeks; maybe one of them can do the same against Cobh...
Dundalk 0-2 Sligo!
Goal difference being all but wiped out too - +38 v +37
One point and one goal in it now.
If the results stay the same, it will be worthless if we don't beat them on Tuesday.. but tonight is going perfectly for us so far. Dundalk are capable of coming back though.Quote:

Cobh 1-0 up on Cabo sets up a big night in Div 1 next week.
4-0 now.. Maguire just can't stop scoring
Tuesday is going to be some game...IF things stay as theybare
What's happening in oriel? I know Sligo are decent but....
Sligo score a third even while down to ten men!
Some title race this is becoming.
Derry equalise, and Cobh are 2-0 up now.
Premier and first devision hea ding for amazing finish
Tuesday looking to be a real humdinger.. Raging I can't be there
Relegation battle could take a cruel turn for Wexford if Longford hold on tonight. Photo finish in store there.
Not to be.Quote:

They couldn't hold on though.Quote:

good comeback Candystripe. fair play.
and well done the Sligs. gave me quite a laugh to see that scoreline. and with 10 men as well.
Cork will go there on Tuesday and really fancy their chances.
I think we are both safe but in theory pats could go past both of us.....I can't help it I'm a worrier : )Quote:

Yes. Gut wrenching. Wouldn't like to be heading home from there tonight. At 2-1 they were dreaming of escape.
Not really as most fans accepted relegation after the Wexford defeat. That's when Tony did a runner. Left it far too late for Mathews to do anything, although he did match Tony with one win. In fairness to Mathews he has that squad a lot fitter than Cousins had. A poor squad put together by Cousins and a lack of action by our board sealed our fate.
Sligo full value for the 3-0 win, they played some great stuff, Cretaro almost made it 4-0 with a shot from the half way line in the second half. A night to forget from Dundalk's perspective, just a dreadful performance, which started after 1 minute, but that's just football, it can be so unpredictable. Dundalk missed a host of chances in the first half, but overall absolutely no excuses. Better side won.
Cork are the obvious big winners tonight and its all to play for now. Tuesday is shaping up to be an epic match now, and RTE have picked one hell of a match to broadcast live. This really is the match of the season and it will be a very tense affair, with the pressure on both sides, but Dundalk will start as favourites, then again we were 1/4 to win tonight !
Nice to see Dlk fans in the stand clapping both Dundalk off first, then Sligo. Even better to see fans queing outside the ground buying tickets for the match on Tuesday.
We've got to play Cork twice though, and Dundalk. We haven't been able to get near either of those two this season when we've played them, so I think the chances of us catching Derry or Rovers are very slim.Quote:
