2-1 Salmon!
Sounds like a cracker up in Ballybofey so far, 3-2 to Finn Harps at half time.
Longford 1-1 Athlone into 2nd half
2-1 Salmon!
4-2 Harps now. Cracking game.
#NeverStopNotGivingUp
Apparently Kevin McHugh's double tonight takes him onto 150 goals for Harps. Great milestone to reach
Keith Quinn(The Ginger) :P didn't play so well. Quite waistful. Tried to play on the deck but things just didn't work out for him. Don't know about Tony Griffiths had another "ok-ish" game. It is a big step up from Senior Leinster league to Premier Division though.
Gives the Mons hope if nothing else.
Town win 2-1 to go top of the table. Always nice beating Athlone.
4-3 in Ballybofey now
Was a cracker of a game, Mervue are woeful but Jason Molloy looks a class act, made a huge difference for them.
We were all over the place at the back.
Onwards and upwards I suppose, bring on Athlone, I think we have a coach load going down for that one.
Coach load indeed for Athlone next week. Looking forward to that trip. Poor enough 2nd half but the first half was pure class, end to end stuff. Delighted for McHugh reaching 150 goals.
Harps were poor enough at the back, but cracking going forward. McHugh still has an absolutely class touch and superb vision.
Bring on Athlone. We're above Limerick on goal difference ;P 3rd in the table. Lets hope to stay there now.

Longford werent great.
Reckon we deserved at least a draw. Great save from longford keeper in last minute from a smashing mcgee free kick.
down to our level?? you mean we dominated? dont be afraid to say it its ok
We were far better. Have to agree you got in amongst us in the second half, but we bossed it in the first. Athlone created nothing really apart from the goal which was pure luck.
Sporting F*ck All!
far better?
ill just laugh and move on...
I hate to admit it but Longford were the better team. Our goal had a bit of luck to it with a deflected cross changing the flight of the ball but Noelie was awake to it to sneak in at the back post. 2 smashing goals by Longford in fairness, who was your No. 11 who scored the first? He took it very well. Longford dominated the first half, second half was 50/50 and scrappy enough... a real derby feel to it with a few hard challenges thrown in!! Super save from your keeper at the end. How old is Gillespie now? He seemed to be everywhere last night and is not one bit afraid to go in for a tackle.
Gillespie turned 37 recently. He still has a great hunger to play and is in great physical shape. First goalscorer was Daniel Purdy, son of former LOI player Richie Purdy. A good prospect by all accounts, he's only just gone 19.
Great game of ball last night, both teams got it down and tried to play.
UCD were really impressive but probably lack a player who'll get them a goal out of nothing.
Delighted with the win but disappointed with the sending off, really dont think it was a red
its getting to the stage where you cant tackle anymore and its ruining the game.
You could see players holding back for fear of getting booked or sent off.
