Great stuff. Second successive win and our beloved neighbours losing 6-0 at home. Shame Kildare won (sorry Kildare fans) but I don't think we'll really have to worry about them..hopefully. Unfortunately we have Fingal, Shels and UCD up next I think.

**De Town** · 09/10/2009, 9:01 PM

Yep, great to get another win. Next 3 could be one big car crash though!

**rovers100%** · 09/10/2009, 9:50 PM

galway were terrible worst i seen them play against us all season. sligo were impressive though prob should have won by more. cretaro took his goal well and young marshall has a goal touch to him. ryan in goals kept the score down he was galways best player. i was expecting much more from russell but he was very quiet in his standards. we have momentum now i think pats bray drogheda will be in play offs !!! come on the bit o red

I was talking about Seamus Conneely... was it him or Coleman?

The real one, Coleman.

Ah ok I thought you were talking about Coleman, not sure about Conneely, I wouldn't recognise him and I missed the start and didn't have a programme.

I'd written those games off already though to be honest. I was more worried about gaining the six points from Athlone and Mervue which we did so anything we get from our next few games will be a bonus really. Round it off with a result against Limerick in our last match and get rid of this season.

Yep, keeping the score down will probably be the priority over the next few weeks. Can't wait for this season to be over.

Poor enough game at Morton tonight for the most part. I reckon a draw was a fair enough result overall and even though im delighted we came back from 2-0 down I still feel we missed our chance tonight after the sending off.
The two goals we conceded were very poor and they came within 3 minutes of eachother. For the first one Deano was caught out by byrne. He must have been expecting a cross from the free kick but to see it go straight in was disappointing. The second goal was terrible defending. Doherty getting caught out at the back badly and leaving byrne in for his second.
As for ourselves. We showed good character to stay in the game after that. Quigley will be having nightmares about our first goal. It was a nothing cross from Giller which he managed to carry over the line by the looks of things. Hynesy did well for his equaliser. He managed to loop the ball over Quigley under pressure.
The red card looked fair enough. 2 stupid tackles on Baylys part and 2 yellow cards.
I thought Fingal played some decent football in patches but much like ourselves they resorted to hoofing the ball at times when they would have been much better to keep it on the deck. I reckon UCD are a better team than them so and I would be surprised if Fingal won the division now.
Good crowd as well tonight.
5 wins and we are promoted.

Not entirely convinced by the angle, but it definitely looks on-side from there, or close enough for jazz.

**RonnieB** · 09/10/2009, 11:47 PM

Massive crowd in Terryland earlier, the crowd congestion outside made for a low starting attendance. Was nice to get the win, could have won by more and Mervue could have snuck a draw. Nice to see Athlone finding form.

Fair enough bhs - I only had the webfeed to go off - so couldn't pause or rewind - plus we've also got to deal with that weird camera angle in the Brandywell from the one camera.

Quick question for those watching on proper TV - could you see the pitch markings at all - on the webfeed they were next to non existent

**Sam_Heggy** · 10/10/2009, 12:58 AM

Harps played well, Athlone were p!sh. We scored six they scored nought. End of summary, im off to bed.

If we go up, I'll buy you a pint the next time we play you. Looks like our 3-0 win a few weeks ago has spurred you on to some good results.

Must say even though we won tonight the ref was septic. He got so many simple calls wrong for both teams

Fair play lad. You are one of the few who say it like they see it.
