Interview with Vinny Perth about tonights game in the Showgrounds

Think our first eleven is the best in the league at the moment. Not sure how we'll fare if we get a few injuries, particularly in midfield. Things are certainly looking good at the moment and we're definitely looking like potential champions, and results have gone our way big time in the last week, but there's a long way to go. Sligo looked like they were going to run away with it for the first seven games, so you never know. We should be there till the death at least. Could be a big big season for us.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
So happy our next league game is away to Pats. Also, just realised UCD and Pats' next game is against each other again. Wonder how Students will try and psych themselves up for that one?

Dundalk played us off the pitch tonight, especially in the first half. Thankfully, Elding will be gone for five matches now and Danny North is close to return. That crowd in the sheltered housing were some ejits to sack Stephen kenny.
Just in the door, stayed in Sligo for a few pints, what a win and what a performance
Fair play Sligo fan for honest view on the game. Sounded like Dundalk were good value. Next home match for us v Pats. Should be a cracker. Speaking of, why did Pats and UCD play last night? They were not behind on games played.
Yeah, that's the fixture that would have been played in between the two legs of our European tie. Fair play to UCD.
UCD did similar for Rovers during European qualifiers a few years ago and I'd expect them to do the same for anybody else - class act of a club.
Now, onto more important matters... is Ian Baraclough the new Trevor Croly?
Well they opted for Stephen Kenny over anybody after O'Neill left. They couldn't exactly hire him again after firing him, could they?
I'm completely fine with a manager other than Kenny. Dundalk have been brutal any time they've played in Tallaght this season.
Can't say I agree with that, but I haven't seen any of your other matches this season so can't comment overall.
I do realise that. I said I'm glad we don't have Kenny, not necessarily glad we have an inexperienced manager who is having trouble dealing with the same pressure Kenny buckled under. I said at the start of the season that Dundalk have done well to get Kenny - he's a good manager who will get the best out of that squad and has an eye for raw talent. If he'd trusted some of the younger players at Rovers he may not have found himself in the self-imposed hole he did. But he was an unmitigated disaster at Rovers and, results aside, Rovers are in far better shape for his absence.
I'm sure a Bohs fan this season could appreciate how you can make overall improvements without that being reflected on the scoreboard. Sure last season yous were thumping us 10-0 or whatever score it was after my tears finally dried up. Obviously the team lacks cutting edge and Croly has been rattled a few times but the football being played is light years ahead and if the board persevere then I think that will pay off eventually. The title this year is a write-off but Europe is a very realistic goal.
