Well this is unexpected
Collie in.
This is exactly what I expected
Jesus H Christ this is grim viewing.
1-1 in Derry
New manager syndrome in only a way the League of Ireland can do it!!
Bohs name on the trophy? Blessed in the 2 rounds so far!
No words , season over.
How long a contract did Harry Kenny sign?
Thought we played really well actually. Pats were way more open at the back than I expected, but when they were chasing the game after pulling one back, it was all long balls into the box. They're in trouble if they start getting defensive shakes while being the same up front
I was wondering whether his contract would mean it'd be costly to sack him.
Georgie Kelly comes up with the goods very late, should it stay that way.
Longford will be gutted not to go through. Bohs survive I'm backing them for the cup!!
In the sea of negativity that was our shambolic performance, credit should be given the UCD players. They worked hard and took their goals well.
Johnny Ward rubbing it in a bit "shock victory over a pathetically poor Cork City side at Terryland".
The lads were brilliant and it was a very evident show of loyalty to each other and the staff that are still there. We should have won it but them's the breaks. Fair play to the Bohs fans for their reception for our team at the end and many of them were making a point of wishing us well on the way out too.
Really rode our luck tonight, and Longford were the better team over the 120 mins. If they play like every game in the playoffs like tonight, they'll go up. Karma for Cork and Fenn too, with how they've behaved this week.
With our luck so far in the cup, hopefully we'll get Crumlin or Lucan in the next round.
And he was right - it was a shock win and City were woeful. Not a single shot on target on 90 minutes says it all. Apparently McNulty got wojous abuse from travelling fans when he went over to them after the game. Nothing he could do - was the 10 in front of him that lost the game. Neal Fenn there tonight to watch his new side - he now knows there is a lot of work to be done.
The 4-0 scoreline looks good but Rovers were bad for the 45 minutes against Drogs and the O'Neill goal changed things. We had to wary of them after their deserved win last season so glad we were clinical in the second half. If Longford had got the win it would have been the perfect night with Pats losing too but you can't have everything. Now let's get anyone but Bohs in the quarters and we'll have a chance.
Its tedium at this stage but Corks fall from grace is mental,Galway are basically amateur,5 league wins all season 3 against Wexford and Athlone and they didn't have a shot on goal:eek: Bonkers!!!
Dundalk were better than the 3-2 v Derry scoreline might have you believe and just reward after a tough game to go through to the next round.
Derry could have won it in the 90mins true enough but it would have been v.v lucky victory but such are the nature of cup matches
Fair play to Georgie Kelly for the goal and for celebrating the sh!t out of it too many players hung up on that old i owe them something rubbish.
HOW is Kenny still in this job ffs.
I'd say Kelleher will pull the trigger only when Europe looks gone.
With a few wins in there next few matches they could be 3rd is what Kenny would be telling him.
Drogheda are not a bad wee side for the resources they have and wouldnt be the easiest nut to crack in United Park espeially in a Derby. I wouldnt partiularly want to play them next round either. That will probably mean Dundalk drawing the Drogs and Rover drawing Cup Winners elect Bohs now!! Going on form though if Rover and Dundalk can avoid eachother and get to the final its would be some day out in the Aviva with a potential for one of if not the best attended cup finals in the Aviva. Long way to go yet and after Dundalk and Cork avoiding each other for the last 4 years what would be the odds on the top 2 getting to the final again?
Even though we didn't score in the first half it was always coming I felt. Drogheda were running around without the ball and were bound to tire. Bar a defensive lapse I could only see one winner.
Drogs did look organised and with a couple of extra players could be competitive in the prem.
Quiet first half in Sligo
The Gaurds should pull the tramp out of the dressing room
