    Trust me Charlie, he would get the Bohs vote

    Early days yet, can only really judge managers at the end of the season. A run of good/bad results or a cup win can change a season very quickly

    They squared up after UCD equalised (GOB blaming SOC for the goal), head to head but definitely no head butt. The Pats fans took exception to this because it was against the 'captain' and abused SOC as he walked past them after the game. SOC gave some back and was escorted (along the normal route) to the dressing rooms by two stewards. Some idiotic fan then started kicking the fence beside the changing rooms as SOC walked in. All a load of nothing really.

    The fact that shligo have only increased their lead over the hoops by two points since the 3-0 trouncing in bitterville is possibly the only thing keeping spock in a job.

    Hurry the fook up and finish the useless fecker off will yous
    I think Shams got the points for beating Monaghan so that should really be five points.
    I watched Shams. V Pats in Tallaght and they are really not that far off the pace.
    I've said all along and still maintain that if we finish above them we will win the league.

    Don't forget 2nd plays 3rd in the First Division so we should have almost guaranteed a play-off spot by now - eleven points clear of Athlone with ten games left. We're back in with a chance of automatic promotion now, but another Dundalk Waterford play-off could be a possibility. Yeah we'll never forget the play-off that was worth 10 IAG points while a good DVD was worth 500

    Thankfully you only have one more league game to beat us in this year and the gap, as it stands, is four points.
    The ball is round and has many surprises.

    How many points could Scully's flakiness cost though? Nah I can't see us keeping our winning run going forever. Bound to have an off day. Could very easily be against Harps on Friday.

    I think it would be hard for a Drogs fan to ever admit as much to us, but even past the half way stage surely Drogs have to be considered one of the massive success stories of the year. I'm almost enjoying (well you know) watching their games, some style of free flowing passing, hard work, and is that 5 wins in a row, all with a budget designed for lower mid table safety. Hats off to their players and the magnificent job the manager is doing.
    #DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), first Irish club to win points in a group stage in Europe (2016).

    Yup! But i'm taking the sligo stance of choosing to ignore the Drog threat...(foolish game Sligoman and i'm sure that is exactly what Mick Cooke is hoping for). That team has a resiliance that is more solid than Sligo at the moment imo. Aside from this, how is it that Quigley is not always a starter - he seems to be brought on and changes a game thats being chased?

    Not everyone is ignoring Drogs threat. He doesn't speak for everyone. There's a chance they could go top on Saturday week.

    Quigley will be starting anymore I'd say. Was just coming back from injury for the Bray game, started against Derry and had personal problems of some variety last week

    We are actually playing good football for the first time this season, so some of Kenny's reforms have gone through, it's just a shame it took him 5 months and reverting to MON's formation to do it. The problem is that Sheppard hasn't been replaced, so neutralise Twigg and you can get yourself a clean sheet. O'Neill can't score but we knew that last year. Huge responsibility on Killer now that he's fit again.

    He did indeed headbutt him. Contact was made. He also invited the "idiotic fan" outside afterwords, before kicking any fence. Classy guy Soccy!
