So, are Dundalk the "Champions" yet?
What is a Pats fan doing on a FAI cup thread?
Fairly clear to see that something more than just the crap what's happening on the pitch going on at Rovers - will be interesting to see is Croly now sacrificed by the Rovers Board to distract away from their own 'performances' over the last two seasons
Well done to Sligo - from 10 mins on it was clear they were in control.
You're right everybody should of kept quiet and accepted the decisions and applauded Buttimer off at the end for his match winning performance, it's not as if 9 months of hard work was taken away by one man!
I'd be more worried if nobody was upset by Buttimers performance, would show a serious lack of passion.
Despite your troling, good luck in the final, I think you will need another Buttimer or Connolly not to lose 3 in a season.
Genuinely no trolling on my behalf! I never said you shouldn't be upset or outraged. We'd feel just as hard done by if it was us in your position. And we were so bad today it want funny! But a female fan striking a steward and the chairman of your club actually having to be held back because he was trying to throw a punch, was really embarrassing. On the decisions, the first was a straight red. The second was a really questionable penalty and definitely not a sending off. So the way I see it Dundalk only had the one Chris Shields decision against them wrongly.
At half time who was the Dundalk official giving the ref an earful till Kenny had to come on to advise him to walk away?
If he walked away, I don't know who it was. If he was pushed away by security and guards, it was the chairman Mr. Bond.
First sending off was no better than Killers sending off against Dundalk earlier in the season, and Dundalk said that was defo a sending off.
Second one was harsh.
I thought Sligo played well, hopefully they rest a few players for next week
Brennan tried to do the player, big difference.First sending off was no better than Killers sending off against Dundalk earlier in the season, and Dundalk said that was defo a sending off.
Second one was harsh.

Then anyone who only thinks Shields perfectly timed tackle was just "harsh" is obviously trolling.
Well I'll have to take your word for it, I'm not condoning it but if Buttimer was put in front of me now it would take all my strength not to smack him, there would be plenty of four letter words anyway.
I think the Shields one was really two wrong decisions in the one passage of play, first it wasn't a foul so no penalty, second there was cover so not a red, he couldn't have gotten it anymore wrong! I've seen the mennan one again and can see why he went however I think a good ref would have booked him and had a word given the importance of the game.
Having seen how Drogheda played against 9 I think we would have got something at 0-0 with 10 men. Anyway no changing it now, time to look forward!
15 minutes, ye were on top till then, but McCabe aside and he didn't have ablinder does any other player actually gives.a particular fc.uk
Quite.
Drogheda have a final to look forward to. We have to make sure we come back better next season.
Smashing performance from The BitoRed today - full of passion and effort and Shams just didn't look like they wanted to know when they went one behind. There's too many good players at that club to be able to maintain a happy camp (Zayed wasn't even on the bench today) and now I'm hearing that Gary Rogers is joining them next season.
If Gary Rogers joins I'm going to give this **** up and concentrate on golf.
Reckon they should go for it - that "signing Sligo Rovers' best players" tactic was a resounding success this season.
Nobody ever came to sign Danny Ventre but he has been central to our story the last 6 or so seasons and for better and for worse he gave his pound of flesh and the blood above his contract for our club.
How anybody claims Meehan shouldnt have been sent off is boggling ,the second was a peno but never a red that can be Kennys only gripe.
Everyone is saying Chris Shields got the ball. Nobody is looking at his other foot. Just before he gets the ball with his right foot he clips Fabios ankle with his left foot. Literally milliseconds in it but I'm sure that's what Buttimer will say he saw! Penalty but no red card for sure.
The Meenan challenge isn't even debatable.
Who's afraid of the Big Bad Shams?
Comedian.
