QuoteCom'on Pats, must be nearly over now?
Yeah, away goals count. Even Bohs' goal tonight 'counted' in a sense.

two mins of normal time left
Seconds left. St. Pat's miss a clean-through chance there?
PHEW - nice one Pats
All over
Well done Pats

Pat's through. Embarrassing night for Irish football, it has to be said, but at least they salvaged something and made it through.
Pats through. Lets be thanful for small mercies. Hopefully they can get past the Bosnian team in the next round!
Yee haa Thank God. 2 v2 on AGG Pats into the next round.
poor coefficient
exact same as last season so far isn't it?
6 more games still to play...Originally Posted by Acornvilla

That's an absolutely abysmal night for Irish football. Thoroughly embarrassing.

that didn't answer my question at all
Bohs should have given up their European place seeing as they got it by breaking the rules.
Disgrace to the league.
I suppose the one good thing is that they wont be representing Ireland in Europe for a while.
Yeah man, they call gambling a disease, but it's the only disease where you can win a bunch of money.
Kinda makes you want to sing 'The Fields of Athenry' doesn't it?
Pats did very well to go through, they deserve great credit for that, even if other LOI fans think a win on aggregate should be a foregone conclusion against IBV, that's far from the reality.
Not bad so far for the 3 Icelandic teams in the EL, 2 out of 3 go through to the next round.

No disrespect to the Icelandic teams, but Irish clubs should be doing much much better than that. Any realistic expectations of progressing as a league have to be built on easily dispossessing of teams such as IBV and Thor.

Thank god Pats went through, we have a lifeline for the country ranking. The Bohs score was an absolute disgrace.
If both went out we could have potentially looked at dropping to 37th place in europe and lose our automatic 2nd round spot for the cup winner....
I think their game against the Bosnians could end up being a little easier than IBV's.
You have to do the ground work first before you can have such expectations. These Icelandic clubs are owned/run by members and financed mainly by local business through sponsrship. Success (in relative terms) on the pitch has taken 7 years of developing coaching strategies with the youth. The foundations are solid, not one club went to the wall when the economy collapsed.
