That would be David Mulqueen. I agree i was dissapointed that we failed to create any clear cut chances but Madden looked good up front. Can anybody tell me when Drogs signed Chambers. I was under the impression he took a job in england and had signed for Solihull Moors.

Think he was on trial, they had a good few trialists playing in that game!

dont know if its been posted yet

but we beat kildare 3-0 tonight

a goal each for Roberts Mezeckis Dan Murray and Guntars Silligailis

kildare are a poor side, they need some serious work to have any chance at staying up this season based on tonights game

What did the Drogheda fans make of their crowd at the Shels game? With it being your first game since very nearly going to the wall i was expecting a massive home crowd. A call to arms so to speak but considering what i said i thought it was a poor turn out.

Of course you are its a local derby and football is on a real high in Dundalk with you finally getting out of the graveyard .Last nights crowd was over a 1000 by all accounts , which by our and LOI standards is very good for a friendly is it not ?

Are there many Bohs fans expected to make the journey to Lissywoollen today?

Keeper made some save though.
As for that the rest was poor.

Does anyone know why was there keeper wearing a city jersey?

Chambers hasn't signed, probably on trial, but he was excellent when he came on. Passed the ball very well and got stuck in with his tackles.

As regards us being poor? Well that was the first game that group have played and to hold a settled team like Shels to a scoreless draw was a great achievement.

We may struggle this season, but at least I can see us competing well against the bottom teams IE. Bray, Galway, possibly Sligo

We only got told we're in the League on Monday, I'm guessing the new kit is in the post! Perhaps a new team is too!
