1st Shels 71
2nd Monaghan 70
3rd Cork 66
4th Limerick 66

Thats the way I see it finishing. The goal difference will kill us.

Mons have none suspended for game against Limerick and we need them to drop points other then lose to us....Not a chance of catching Cork now imo.

Might be a better thing that Mons have full team against us and missing a few against Mervue,all we can do is win all our games and you never know!!!

Roddy came out with a classic on Newstalk last night. He was talking about diving in the box and how much it disgusts him. The presenter asked him what would he do if Mons won a pen in the last minute that would get them promoted but the striker had blatantly dived to get the penalty.
"Oh", says Shoddy, "I'd be telling him to roll it wide...no question"

Limerick defenders...be aware of this!!

The suspended Mons players miss the Wexford game and only the Wexford game so far.

Only a one game ban in LOI for straight red which is ridiculous. Unless the ref recommends it should be more or something like that.

Sean Brennan was given a straight red either that or the ref was so fast at getting the yellow out for him no-one around me saw it.

Were you at the game?

Edit: From Extratime.ie

Cork City 3 - 1 Monaghan United
79' - Red Card - And Monaghan are down to ten after Sean Brennan is given a straight red for an absolutely brutal 'tackle' on Shane Duggan.

Id be fairly sure he did not show any yellow to Sean after the tackle on Duggan he showed him a straight red...I know Ryan got a yellow earlier but im almost certain Sean was a straight red.

Not that it means anything but Extratime dont have Sean getting any yellow either.

**El-Pietro** · 07/10/2011, 10:26 AM

it was definitely a straight red. dunno if he got a yellow earlier in the game but the first sending off was one card

The disciplinary committee meets on Mondays afaik, so they'll decide then if it warrants an extra game or two, based on the match report.

Everything I've read has said it was a straight red.

methinks you are correct ,spoke to the kitman who thinks it was a straight red

**bluewhitearmy** · 07/10/2011, 2:19 PM

I hope it was or this LOI business has finally made me lose it.

**Targetman** · 08/10/2011, 8:09 PM

Waterford beat Shels 1-0 tonight, and Cork have gone top after beating Salthill 4-0.

1st Cork 28 / 63
2nd Shels 27 / 62
3rd Mons 26 / 58
4th Limerick 27 / 57

Can definitely see a few more twists and turns coming in the last few games, Its still all to play for.
