    Match v Harps on Saturday

    I think we can get a win here if we're lucky.

    I'm pretty sure the match is on Saturday, not Friday as previously thought.

    What time are we all meeting up for the fight at? As per the details in TV3's Lawless Ireland I would imagine its going to be a fairly abrasive affair. If any of ye want to join in the Section O faithful as we crash, bust & burn our way through Ballybofey then just contact me on Bebo.

    Just looking at the team from Finn Park on extratime and there's a Murtagh and Hoaro, I'm presuming its Hoare. Are them 2 lads from the youth set up? Very young bench with Brennan, Lee and them2 lads on it. I wouldn't say Nicholson is too old either. Whats up with Jinks tonight?

    He was suspended for tonight cos of yellow cards picked up with Athlone last season.

    3 red cards from our first 2 games of the season....it's like back in the old John Cleary days!!!

    Just 2 games in and that's almost certain that the 2 in a row will not be achieved this season. Was so looking forward to celebrating another title at the end of the year. Ah well next year we might get back a few of the lads who were afraid of 'The Tackle'

    I was at the match last night. I thought we deserved a draw. the game turned on a controversial penalty given .Stephen Gough was harshly given the red card when in fact he chested it. It was really Brendan Murphy that collided with the harps attacker. the Liam Lynch sending off was well deserved from a fracas in the middle of the pitch it was for afters.

    We dont really have a creative spark in midfield. Harps had so many chances to score in the second half .

    Town team
    Murphy
    Kenny Gough Sheridan King
    Concannon Russo Curran Lynch
    Glynn McCartney

    Subs: Hoare for Concannon,Murtagh for Curran
    other subs:Lee Brennan Nicholson

    no town legend you would be slightly wrong. michael lee was with bohs youths for a few years before he joined us last year. The rest of the lads came thro the ranks all rite.

    Thanks for that Howsyourtouch. Just trying to keep my stats up to date. A bit difficult when I'm the far side of the Atlantic. Still trying to keep up to date with all the happenings going on with the Town!!!
