Brennan is head and shoulders above the rest of that team. I'd have him back at the Brandy tomorrow.

B2B, from where we were in the press box it seemed like clear hands from Price on Greacen. I dunno if there was any "force applied" but Doyle probably looked up, saw the hands and blew. He was in line with us, I assume he had a similiar view of the incident.

I was sitting just to the right of the press box and, sure, there was pushing and shoving, but has there ever been a set piece or cross in this or any league where that wasn't the case?

It's not like someone got a punch in the gob or a loaf was thrown - although, on the strength of recent evidence, in the latter case the goal would have stood!

The Derry defenders didn't complain - it was a normal, everyday ball in, a bit of pushing and shoving and a goal.

Unless you're going to start overtly punishing this kind of stuff when the rest of the world isn't doing so, that was not a fair decision.

At any rate, Bohs didn't deserve a result so I don't really care.

People seem to overlook Monaghan in all the talk of who will get promoted but I wouldn't be at all surprised if they go up automatically. I'm not looking forward to them coming to Tolka in a few weeks time.

That's always been the case I suppose it suits us but we are playing a lovely brand of football at the moment and like yourselves can score from anywhere, plus Roddy see
S to know how to get the best of his players

Or... He is meeting with the sligo management.. Hmm the plot tickens

Maybe he had a brown envelope full of cash and instructions to Sligo to kick the legs off Cork if they get into the EA sports cup final...there are unconfirmed reports that he was in Dalymount the other night holding a bottle of blue nun and a box of quality street and fluttering his eyelids at Stephen Kenny.

Absolute lies. It was a box of Black Magic.

Two of them are against Galway. I'd rather have the games in hand than the points, as you're not dependent on other results to decide where you stand.
