    A team like Sligo really makes you appreciate the gulf in quality between the first division and premier. I thought Monaghan held our own for most of the game, but were punished for one of the only mistakes made.

    Good question. He got a bit of a knock a couple of weeks ago and was out. Who knows what's going on behind the scenes but the fact that Mathews brought Anto Murphy on when Shels were 3 down and not Casso (Shels' best attacking player) suggests that he's still carrying an injury.

    It was over at 3-0 (tbh it was over after 7 minutes) no need to risk your best player. I'm expecting Paisley and Cassidy to play against us next week. Hopefully they both pick up knocks in training
    Here on a technicality.

    Finished 3-2. Deserved the win, completely dominated the first half should have scored a couple more. Waterford came back strong second half but didn't really create a lot. They managed to score two screamers though from Dunphy. Salthill next week, 5 from 5 a real possibility.

    Hyland should have saved the 1st, shocking attempt, useless closing down also. The 2nd was a good'un but still savable if he was on his fecking line. Bring in Hunt for the next game I say, see how he does. Deserved win thou, disappointing crowd.

    I have no idea how Wexford managed to win tonight. We just can't seem to take any chances.

    The gate wasn't much less than Athlone I believe and a lot less away support. About 350 there I'd say. Good buzz developing amongst the crowd though, a few faces reappearing after a long absence.

    Defence...attack...which one takes the blame?

    Always good to hammer Shels, albeit thanks to their own mistakes, but they get punished at Premier level. I can't remember even Galway or Kildare conceding such comical own goal. There was a pause in play waiting for him to do something with everyone marked and then he just kicked straight at the goal. Great view of it personally too

    Tell all the Bohs you know
    that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
    and it's not gonna be three
    and it's not gonna be four
    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    Both are seriously deficient currently. We give up chances out of nothing, and when we get chances miss them. Apart from that we're pretty decent. Although in fairness our midfield isn't always great and our keeper has played better too.

    Totally disagree with this. Those two goals for Waterford were brought on by simple ball-watching. The back four trotting around like we're already promoted. The first one took a deflection which didn't help the situation either.

    Hyland has been solid since the start of the season and I think we could have a new long-term keeper. He doesn't warrant being left on the sideline yet.
    Sporting F*ck All!

    Really, our first 11 should be beating most teams in this division. Defensively suspect at times, but with possibly the youngest backline in the whole league there's a lot to be said for experience.
    Midfield has been strengthened with the re-signing of Shaun McGowan.
    Up front you have the obvious talent of Kevin McHugh who is looking in the best shape of his career as far as I can see.

    What's wrong is we're leaking soft goals through lapse in communication and the fact last seasons player of the year Keith Cowan is out injured who is the real leader of the backline and controls all there.

    We are playing some lovely football, albeit against Athlone we were awful, but tonight and in previous games we played a bit of really decent football. Just seem to s**t the nest when we get sight of goal. Could have easily had 4 or 5 against Wexford tonight if it weren't for poor decisions in the final third and people capitalising on good crosses.

    Graham Doyle made 3 or 4 very good saves too which also helped matters for Wexford who themselves didn't really have more than 2 or 3 chances in the match in total.

    I wish there were replays available, watch his footwork when making saves from now on, the 1st one was very saveable, I did say they should have closed down.

    The 2nd goal, like I said was a better goal shot and was less avoidable lets say. He made 1 more save I think which he actually could have caught if he fecking used his feet and took a step or two before attempting saves.

    There was one point also, I think it was just after 13 and 14 came on for waterford (who both look about 15 years old but seem like they have bags of tallent). They had the ball just at the edge of the D, Hyland was out beyond the penalty spot totally in no man's land begging to be chipped. I don't get to half as many games as the rest of you probably do and that was the 1st time I've ever seen the lad play but I wasn't very impressed, he was grand with the other aspects of his play, he's decent with the ball at his feet, although none to convinced with his attempts to claim crosses either but he got away with it and at least sort of palmed the ball away each time.

    I'm not saying hes crap and Hunt is better, but the Salthill match is a good time to give Paul a run out.

    Atmosphere was good alight, Section O seems to be expanding a little too The crowds seem to be a good bit better than last year so far anyway, I just think we should be doing a little better, especially if the results keep going the right way, slow progress is better than no progress thou!

    Paiso? Sure, someone will be rude to him in the local shops and he'll be out for the rest of the season. I wouldn't factor him into your planning.
