Drogs fans look stupid now with their "Doolin is our Saviour" banner. From reading this thread they got cocky and deserved what they got. A decent manager would have prepared them better. Still the only people this result affects are the co-efficient people.
What is it with Louth Men and San Marino ?
It'll only damage teams with European aspirations so don't worry about it.
People can dress it up all they like but it doesn't say much for our league if it's potential champions can't beat a team who I'd expect a LSL team to beat
False hope is worse than no hope. Ask Sligo.
But they don't (have to win these games).
The coefficient is beginning to lose its importance because LOI clubs are much more competitive now than for 5 years ago. It was more important before because it was necessary for clubs to get a good draw if there was going to be any chance of progress. As it is now, LOI clubs have a good chance of qualifying for the next round no matter who they are drawn against. With a bit of luck, the LOI can overtake the Lithuanian league this year on the ranking table and this will most likely ensure seeding for our clubs in next year's UEFA Cup. If this doesn't happen next season, I'm confident it will happen the following year.
It's only half time in this match
Libertas had one chance and scored from it - it was just bad luck and it doesn't reflect on the standard of our league.

This result is obviously a cunning plan hatched by the Drogs commercial department to increase ticket sales for the second leg.
Isn't it?
I'm what? I'm ants at a picnic?
San Marino Teams are always dangerous in July.

Totally agree with this. When the international team struggled to win over there everyone was saying stuff like 11 ****heads on a stag weekend in rimini could have beaten San Marino. It is a disgrace that Drogheda couldnt even beat this crowd who didnt even win the San Marino championship last year.
Just remember, Maccabi Tel Aviv lost in Andorra last night.
These places are tougher than you think to go and get a result from. The conditions are unfamiliar, and unless you've actually been there before, you won't have a clue what to expect.
