My immediate reaction was that Price was dealt with a bit harshly - looked like he might have just got his body in front, but I'm not a referee. Sheppard's goal was fantastic - like one of the Chicharito's best efforts.

We let them away with murder tonight we really should have hammered them. They didnt outplay us at any point. Seen the sending off again on the news and it was a stonewall red card.

We won, Kavanagh and North scored again, Unbeaten in 11, happy days

Just about kept our 100% away record but I think we deserved it in the end. Good to get another clean sheet even if Wexford never looked good enough to score anyway.

Mons are the best team I have seen us play this season but I did miss the Cork match. Their defense did look shaky though and I dont know that they have much in terms of squad depth so they might struggle as the season goes on.

3 words for you.....Transfer Window Baby! Will be interesting to see who God brings in for us.

Our defence has improved massively without Rogers cocking things up but we were dealt a bit of a blow in the form of what could be a season ending injury to Conor McMahon.

For some reason Rovers were playing like they were 4:0 up and coasting,when the reality was it was only one mistake away from an undeserved draw for boez.
Great goal by shep tho.
Onwards we go.

I thought Rovers - Bohs was a really good game to be honest. Rovers were very much in control and the only time Bohs looked like scoring was a 10 minute spell right after the sending off, when Rovers seemed to switch off completely thinking the game was already in the bag. Mannus made a fantastic one on one save that secured the result. The sending off was a definite red, although Twigg looked well offside from where I was, almost right in line with it. Shepard's header was off the back of his head so there was a bit of luck involved, but it was a great leap and an excellent cross. One of the more enjoyable games in Tallaght this season.

**Rasputin** · 31/05/2011, 9:18 AM

The usual story, bucket loads of chances to finish off the game but poor finishing all round.
I thought we played well for most of the game but once we got the goal then Dundalk started pileing on the pressure.
Somehow we didnt concede and held on for the win but we really have to be more clinical infront of goal.
If we are to get anything off shams next week we need to take our chances.
As for Hector, wow, genius.

**Red Army** · 31/05/2011, 9:22 AM

Really tight league at the moment not much between Bohs in 7th to Rovers in 2nd. Shams should be more then two points clear at this stage with the squad they have. Saying that no one will stop them.

**Red Army** · 31/05/2011, 9:40 AM

Galway players were out on the beer Sunday night no wonder the got hit for six.

**harpstilidie** · 31/05/2011, 10:45 AM

Well done Harps, another magnificent performance

Will ye be able to bring in much or will ye have to get rid of people to be able to bring some in?

**hoopy** · 31/05/2011, 12:11 PM

Any chance Derry will let us play Bohs again instead of them?

Also be interesting to see who Collins brings in.

not sure but we have lost barrett and rodgers so there is room to bring someone in plus one never knows what roddy has lined up.
anyway played just ok last night but struggled at times, should have scored another one or two,harps will take points off a lot of teams. as long as you can get all three points when you are playing poorly you cant complain, still think limerick wil be in the mix at the end.

**Jofspring** · 31/05/2011, 1:06 PM

I can see Shels, Cork, Mons and us opening up a gap over the next month or two. After that it comes down to who holds their nerve and who bottles it. Nearly every season one team bottles it and drops a lot of points. I just hope it isn't us. The top 4 are beating all the rest of the teams an taking points off each other here and there. We are yet to have a clean bill of health this season always having 3 or 4 players out injured. The sooner they are back the better.

**nigel-harps1954** · 31/05/2011, 1:12 PM

So, Salthill is the only team yet to beat Harps this season. Delightful. Whats worse for Harps is that if we could actually score a few goals we wouldn't be so far down the table. 8 of our defeats (7 in the league) this season have been by 1 goal. 8 league games we have failed to score at all. Aside from 5-0 in Cork, we have not been well beaten all year. All we need is a striker to play alongside McHugh and you can be guaranteed we may start climbing the table in the 2nd half of the season.

All the Roddy haters squirming, waiting and hopeing for Mons to have a dip in form.
So far Roddy has done some job with Mons, cant fault him in the least, must be killing all the Roddy haters.
Go on Rodster.
