QuoteHave to say that was extremely easy. Very poor Dundalk team. Scoreline should have been double. We had 2 perfectly good goals disallowed and plenty more chance.
Another home draw hopefully, don't care who.
Thought it was clearly offside. The replay looks fairly tight tbf. The winner was a clear throw in our way. It was a tough one to take after playing so well. Thought we were the better team. Bitter pill to swallow as it's season over nowOriginally Posted by D24Saint

That is some result in Galway,the kind of scoreline that could see a manager in bother at the other end of it though….
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
SOD sounded in terrible form in the post match interview, good listening.
Robbed by Rob Harvey again in a cup quarter final. The man is a dreadfully inept referee. So disappointed to lose that game

How does O'Donnell keep his job after that? What a night for Gaillimh. But to be undone from routine set pieces like that must be worrying. Dundalk have been poor for months now. Terryland looks. great these days, especially when full. Galway have had their dark, notorious times; DVD gate, the Nick Leeson days, losing 8-0 at home to Sligo in a year where they conceded about 130 goals.Two clubs going in different directions was what it looked like to me tonight.

Galway’s hoof-ball might just work in the Premier division…
No hoofball tonight my friend, we destroyed Dundalk on the deck, out wide, through the centre and from set pieces, second top-flight side handed their backsides by us this season
Sounds somewhat like sour grapes, he made poor decisions all around like most refs every week. Imo we were there for the taking this evening and harps should have capitalised. I don’t think Harps will have a better opportunity to reach a cup semi for years , we were just plain awful all night.
haha…Man City in disguise
It's not sour grapes, it's wanting to burn down Rob Harveys house. I think there's some sort of difference.
He was utterly dreadful all night. Pats were definitely there for the taking and we should have been probably two or three up at half time, only for Lyness in Pats goal and for a bit of poor finishing from Harps.
I thought the penalty decision was a bit soft, and Harvey was utterly disgraceful giving a throw in for Pats, overruling the linesman, when it was clearly a throw for Harps, which led to Lonergans goal, unfortunately Rory Kelly decided to stand out of the way and allow him a free shot at goal too.

Deciding a referee has robbed your team by giving a throw in the other way is a new one on me I have to say. Also considering the same officials gave your side an offside goal and didn’t award pats a second penalty for an absolutely blatant handball a few minutes after the equaliser, I don’t agree that you were ‘robbed’ by Harvey tonight, as crap as he was for both teams. Another bad cup performance from pats this season but another cup draw to look forward to which is obviously the main thing

James Clarke is class. Joy to watch him carry the ball. Seems like we deserved the win and we were denied a stonewall peno in the first half and not sure Drogs’ was a penalty at all. Clever but not convinced Flores makes any contact.
Ours was on the line of the box, clear foul which both officials chose to ignore, their penalty was a clever dive, Flores dosent make any sort of movement towards that at all.
Worrying how we always switch off completely when ahead though, go into negative mode immediately. Down to Devine and the coaches to stamp that out.
The foul and it was a foul was outside the box but not given. The penalty was so so soft, I didn't think there was any contact at all
Harps goal was onside.
Ref overruled linesman to give a Pats throw.
He repeatedly ignored Pats handballs all night, and gave soft free after soft free to Pat's while Harps got next to nothing.
It was as bad a performance from him as I've seen since the last cup quarter final he officiated in Finn Park when Shamrock Rovers got three second half penalties off him.

Who are they?
He was shocking alright but to suggest that he was more biased for one side over the other is incorrect IMO. Not sure I agree with how you deem a foul as soft considering you saw the foul on Mulraney as soft when it’s a stonewall penalty every day of the week as the defender took his legs from behind. I assume ignoring the blantard handball in the box means you agree that pats should’ve been awarded a second penalty. To say you were robbed by the ref when there was no major decision that went against you is essentially what I mean (I don’t deem overturning a throw in 35 yards up the pitch with your full defence back at the time as a big decision, it was a small decision that resulted in a goal due to weak defending and goalkeeping)

The real controversy is how the highlights of the Galway match aren’t up on the FAI YouTube yet. Looking forward to seeing how much xG Dundalk created, as we all know that’s what their manager cares most about

We’re getting Bohs at Dalymount in the semis. Guaranteed !
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
