Definitely the first time it's been in the ground, some of our hardcore would be RSF so I assume that's where it's coming from.

We were beyond pathetic, Scully bottled the tactics like a big bottling bottler, playing 5 (FIVE) at the back at home will usually lead to a thoroughly deserved riding. Lumping balls at two (granted game) midgets all first half and Peter Hynes sitting on his arse on the bench. Message to Pat, you go out and attack Shels regardless, they don't particularly fancy playing us, players missing me eye, Mike Kerley got results against them with a team assembled using only 25 quid and some elastic bands

Frostys' sending off was a killer and a real game changer as inspite of ourselves we were starting to come into it a tiny bit. Weak reffing by McLoughlin (who must have made a kings ransom gracing us with his presence all the way from Monaghan) If he had dealt with Matthews the first time there was balls acting there wouldn't have been an incident.

Another trophyless year stretches out before us but with three or four multi million euro signings to come in second and third are still there to be chased

Agree with all of that and 2nd or 3rd will do me just fine let Shels run away with the league if it means they will take points off Mons and Cork though.

He started the season brilliantly but I would say his form has dipped in the last month or so.

Although our fans(and maybe others at other grounds) comment on the lack of travelling support I have to commend the few Galway fans who were in Tallaght. Just like Drogheda your team is what it is and it must be demoralising to be going to games fully expecting to lose. But you keep going. Fans like this are invaluable to not only the club but the league. I take my hat off to you.

Have to agree you would have to have huge respect for both sets of supporters who traveled. Its always easy to make the journey when your team is playing well.
Fair play.

Sorry, but what?

Anyway, any Pats fans have an opinion on the game last night? I thought 4-1 flattered your lot big time. First half was a bit dull but the 2nd was very entertaining, and we could have easily taken the lead before yous did. The quick 3rd goal killed it then really. Fair play to Mahon though, he has yis playin some good stuff

After he missed the pen early on against us he wasnt in the rest of the game a few weeks back. Very hit and miss!

I was at that game, thought it was a terrible hoofball first half, dont think you lot deserved anything out of it. Only palyer that caused Pats problems was Corcoran. Pats never looked like going through the gears and just kept plugging away til the break through came.

On another note, some little sh!te nearly smashed me me wing mirror by flinging a punch at it after the match. Typical Drogs!

Don't disagree with much of that. Thought we only really started to play around the half hour mark and created a few chances. Your goal unsettled us for 10-15 minutes but tbh I always thought we had enough in reserve to win. A couple of Mahons subs worked out brilliantly

But Drogheda were far better than in Richmond and only got picked off at the end, rather than just give up (if that makes sense)

Agree with this and what Dodge said, We were poor for the first 60 minutes then Mahon made some what looked like bizarre substitutions which worked perfectly, Looking at just the result it would seem we were comfortable but fair from it, Drogheda have improved a lot since our game in Richmond

They signed a fair few players too, Robbie Clarke, Gavin Whelan, Tony Grant (allegedley only 34???),Bobby Ryan and 2 others who i forget.

**Jofspring** · 18/06/2011, 8:46 PM

Thought Bobby Ryan was back with Galway or has he signed recently?

He's been with us all season. He played for us last night.

**gustavo** · 18/06/2011, 9:25 PM

4-0 win for us tonight - Thought we played well enough. Nice goal by Raff just as he was coming off. Horgan scored direct from a corner ! We were cruising for most of it and Ventre and McGuinness mopped up anything that came their way.

Ya I thought so. kdjac must have picked up the wrong name.

Pike fan saying again that he is signing for them because he is moving back to Limerick and that Galway are going to be folded in a few weeks. I'd take that with a huge pinch of salt of course.

I wouldn't be surprised or upset if Bobby left soon.

We aren't going to fold in a few weeks.
