QuoteWould have felt like a bit of an anti-climax not finishing off the season in The Aviva. That was hard work, pitch was heavy and worked against Sligo more in the end. Hoban is awful cranky when he gets subbed. Will be some final imo!
Cleary got away with one there

Funny i was thinking that earlier, (the anti climax bit )if Sligo had won your season was over and best part of 5 months till next match, I made the same point about our season if we lost to bohs. Combination of the ridiculous length of our off season and the fact that 1st and 2nd are already guaranteed.
Really looking forward to the final now.
Sickening way to lose it but we were out on our feet for the last 10. Dundalk better team without creating a huge pile of chances but having said that don’t remember Rogers making a save the whole game. Blatant penalty not given obviously and thought the free for the goal was harsh as well.
All in all a great occasion and hopefully won’t be a one off. Great to see the place full again. We’ve made good progress this season and be interesting to see who Buckley manages to bring in for next season.

Do you think Vinny Perth will have to win both to save his job?
Gutsy performance by Sligo. Dundalk never got into their usual rhythm, although were probably deserving winners in the end
You really are pathetic, you quote a piece that makes it look like I am having a go but omit the rest where I say it was the same for rovers due to crasy length of off season and the fact that 1st and 2nd were confirmed
A completely reasonable post that just about nobody would disagree with , but of course you come back with your usual BS.
It's no wonder that some of the regular dundalk posters on here pm me as to what an embarrassment you are...toddle on troll, even your own disown you, lol

Exactly who are these "regular Dundalk posters". Either put up or shut up.
I disagree (strongly) with many of Ezeks views but we are all entitled to express our views as long as we abide by the rules. Argue with his views not his right to express them.
No shortage of effort fron Sligo but what a loss when Parkes went off.
The ref misssed the blatant penalty, partly I suspect because of the acrobatics, despite it being a blatant trip the acrobatics didn't make it look natural. Dundalk took control of the game on the hour mark, the goal was fortunate, a skewed shot through a crowded goalmouth. But a replay at Oriel? probably better to have the pain ended today.
Now comes an Aviva showdown with the other Rovers, I guess they will just be so amazed to be there.
Wow - calm down!
I'm simply pointing out that we also have another trophy to chase after the FAI cup final. It's not a particularly controversial issue, but you appear to have taken offence for some bizarre reason that I don't understand.
Some very thin-skinned peep about this place tonight
Just want to go on record - i never pm'd any boh or shams fan here EVER!!
Thought Dundalk Dundalk'd Sligo today.They do that they do.
Sligo are fairly impotent final 3rd,huffed & puffed but could hardly land a blow.Penalty shout was 50/50,Coughlan(hates a dive that guy)waiting for the contact.
Dundalk really got going in the final 25mins as Sligo's early energy levels dropped to zero and the goal was coming.Shanks Duffy with a shin-in
Sets up a nice looking final fixture.
I shouldn't allow myself to be wound up. MUST TRY HARDER . VAR would have given the peno as there's contact but I think he felt it and went over , by today's standards where football has become a non contact sport it could have been given but not by me.
It's a pet hate of mine hearing commentators talking about "Contact" as if that means it's a peno or a free regardless

Parkes a massive loss for us. Meant we could never have the option to stretch Dundalk in behind. Murray coming on was not going to be an adequate replacement. He has been a big let down. Looks like he is running in quicksand.
We put up a decent fight so relatively happy overall. There has been some progress made this season overall.
Lets play guess the final attendance. Could we be looking at 40k plus?
How would it be as high as that ? I’d say 20-25k.
30k last year - i'd have thought it will be at least that as a minimum. Rovers will bring massive numbers imo.
I think the match will attract a bigger floating voter than dundalk cork , people were fed up with that ( unless u were from dundalk or cork I guess)
Will definitely be more than last year.....what was last year?
I'd say your right.
Dundalk will bring good numbers,expect shams x2 us will as well,record attendance(36k) well in sight.
IF price of tickets kept to previous cup final €
If it reaches 30k that'll be the height of it. Especially with the way ticketba$tard look after general sales.
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
What is the view of Rovers fans on this. Will thousands of people who don't go to Tallaght turn up for a final?
