174 Jason Byrne (after his goal yesterday)
162 Donal Leahy
159 Glen Crowe
158 Stephen Geoghegan
156 Johnny Matthews
153 Alife Hale
143 Paul McGee

If Jason Byrne stays injury free and in anything like the form he has shown in Dundalk colours so far he will be easily hit the no 2 spot before the season end

Very harsh, I thought Byrne put in a good shift considering he was on his own for 70 minutes and had very little service.

setback for limerick ,but quite sure they have a enough depth and heart to bounce back long way to go .Credit due to athlone big result in waterford.

Mailey was acting the knacker aswell, well able to give it himself, went down then like he was shot. But like I already said stupid, stupid, STUPID carry on from Stevo, especially with a weak ref desperately looking to even things up.

On the plus side, an absolutely cracking game to watch and I'm sure the Limerick supporters will agree with this at least

I thought it was mostly a scrappy shambles to be honest.

Chant of the night last night must go to us, 'MON DOGS we should be eating Mon Dogs'

**BonnieShels** · 05/03/2011, 8:24 PM

All over at the Flansiro:

Longford Town 1-2 Shelbourne

Nyiaow!

**Town Legend** · 05/03/2011, 8:49 PM

Two desperate mistakes in our defence handed the points to Shels. Thought in pre-season our defence and goalkeeping situations had improved greatly from last season but from showing tonight it doesn't seem to be.

**BonnieShels** · 05/03/2011, 11:33 PM

Having not been there I couldn't possibly comment. I can only accept Buile Suibhne's adjudication. It's only the first game and as such I wouldn't be concerned. We are more than likely going to be the team to beat so its not the sort of thing to get down on.

**CSFShels** · 05/03/2011, 11:37 PM

We weren't great at all, but our 2 goals were. Such is the joys of signing players capable of producing those pieces of magic. People really need to keep an eye on our forum for when the video of the game comes up, Casso's goal is simply out of this world.

**Terry** · 05/03/2011, 11:41 PM

Was happy with GUFC even though we lost 3-0. Seeing as some of the players were struggling to remember some team mates names (they are so unfamiliar with each other, some playing their first match for us without even putting in a training session or even knowing what Terryland looked like!!!!!), they played some half decent football, and in time (maybe 4 or 5 matches) they might start to put some results together. Onwards and upwards as they say as its going to be a very long season for us !

Casso is a player that Dundalk fans have a lot of time for,lovely player that always gives his best.
On exTime tonight Shels had only 3 named subs and no Mulvenna and no sub keeper ? Cant be right surely(Sub GK anyway)

**GalwayRed** · 05/03/2011, 11:56 PM

Happy to get the win tonight even though we didn't play particularly well. Our two goals were excellent finishes but you would definitely have to question the defending. Thought we were too direct tonight but when we did run at the longford defense we caused trouble.
The main thing was to get off to a good start though.

We had 7 subs, Skinner as the sub keeper. Something weird with Mulvenna's registration that he couldn't be on the bench yet afaik.

There's always room for anti-Jayo bias, it is to be positively encouraged.

I thought he was threatening up until he scored (including after the red card), then didn't contribute at all. Spent more time arguing and protesting for fouls with Kelly. I thought whoever no7 was far better for yous.
