Week 26 - Fxtures and Results

[Longfordian]

Very good second half from us against a decent if lightweight Wexford side. Big game v Waterford in two weeks but as we're unbeaten away from home we'll go there with confidence.

[Sam_Heggy]

It was so easy for our lads tonight.

9 games unbeaten now and 3 points clear in 4th place. If only Pizza was in charge from the start of the season.

Really good Harps performance tonight, some good football played at times and really Athlone made it very easy for us. Very poor Athlone side.

says it all when we could only draw with athlone a week ago in lissywoolen.. Im dreading the trip up north to ye on the last day of the season the way ye are playing the last few months and ye have a great record against us this season..

If only we had done it all season we'd be up there with ye.

[Longfordian]

I've only seen Harps once this year, the last time we played. We should have won the game I reckon but ye were very well organised and McHugh is still a great player at this level when he's up for it. Have ye still to play Limerick or Waterford again?

[nigel-harps1954]

We've still to play Waterford at home in 2 weeks. Should hopefully beat them. Last 4 being Wexford, Waterford, Salthill, Longford. The unbeaten run should continue if all goes well.

[Longfordian]

Fingers crossed ye'll make it to twelve unbeaten anyhow :-)

Based on what?

[nigel-harps1954]

Based on what?

Form maybe?

[Dodge]

if you can't get to a game tonight, make sure you check out highlights of Bohs/Pats. best game U've seen this year with 2 cracking goals by McMillen and O'Connor

[bluewhitearmy]

Form maybe?

I realise reading it back now that it sounds like im arguing with you it was a genuine question probably should have just asked are ye playing that well that ye would be confident of beating them?
I do think the fact that Waterford and Longford still have to play ye is a huge help to us. Have ye beaten any of them during your run of form i cant remember?

[Mr A]

We drew away in Waterford. We beat them down there earlier in the season. They won the previous game at Finn Park though.

I think ye will definitely take points off at least one of them anyway off both of them would be very pleasing.

Whats brought about the upturn in fortunes anyway summer signings or Pizza taking full control?

[Mr A]

IMO- Felix leaving was where it all changed. The summer signings haven't made too much difference, they mostly succumbed to our injury jinx pretty quickly!

[nigel-harps1954]

Pizza taking full managerial control and Wizard McGowan taking training has made a huge difference. Playing better football, rather actually playing football. Some players hitting above potential, some players sitting nicely for the future.

The average age of the starting team vs Athlone was only 23. Kevin McHugh being the only player in the squad above 30 and joint top scorer in the division.

We really shouldn't be in 4th place, and so far off 3rd. But it all boils down to the fact that a couple of shocking results toward the start of the season killed us off.

Athlone, Wexford and Mervue all beat us away from home in games we should have won. Wexford also beat us in Finn Park in a horrible game.
Mervue have scored 10 goals in 4 games against us this year.

Those results amongst a few other very poor results have left us where we are. Licking wounds so to speak.

I have every confidence that if we had the current management team in place from the start of the season we'd be challenging at the top.

Is there anywhere other then that Airtricity League site to get a top scorers list.

Two nil now to Rovers.
We won't be stopped. We might never see the likes of this again.
