I said in my first post, it wasn't a factor or an excuse for us losing. But I really don't buy into it being the same for both teams either. It was clear that Dundalk's defence were more aware of whatever you do don't let it bounce, whereas Town defenders were treating through balls as they would on a grass pitch. Going on the 3/4's of the pitch I could actually see.
That and the conditions of the away terrace are old news to most premier clubs, but it was still a shock to me just how bad Oriel is. Makes a mockery of the hoops that teams looking to join the league are expected to jump through regarding facilities to be honest.
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
Drogs leading Bray Wanderers 1-0. Daryl Kavanagh already scoring for them. He could prove to be an inspired signing if Drogs can keep him on the straight and narrow.
roddy collins you're a flanker you're a flanker!
I'll tell you all who isn't better than Pats, Limerick...
My god they were beyond cat. Decent enough crowd at the match, I'd say it'll be cut in half by the time they play Longford at home.
Ya I reckon 350 max for Longford game.
Absolutely buzzing after that 95th minute equalizer.. poor game in difficult conditions a point each was fair and something I would've taken before the game
96th minute.......
Thought we deserved to win but it was a poor enough game
Bring back winter football.
Think you've taken my comment to heart everyone knows we set out to frustrate and that's exactly what we done, excellent tactical effort from us and only for Rogers save we would have been rewarded. Dundalk could have scored 1 or 2 more yes but overall they were extremely poor as a lot of fans have said on here
Always hard to have two points snatched away like that, but what with losing Henderson last week, not having Cretaro or Wearen, and having to use a substitution on the keeper, it could be worse.
I for one was sceptical as I was fearing a thrashin.. Except for the goal, I thought we played well especially in the second half. I was impressed with Martin Deady or Deadinho as I now call him! He was a terrier in midfield and held his own well! He reminds me of Billy Bremner! Skinner also played well . Shaw only got into the game once Sully came on. I thought we were unlucky not to get a point.
As for the away end it was shocking. We werent even allowed into the bar underneath the stand! Why? That was the first time I have being in that away end as I was always in the main stand or in the Ultra stand.
considerin all our complainin after 7 long years I propose changin certain lyrics of what we sing at matches!
WE HAVE BEIN SEVEN YRS AWAY WE GO UP WE COMPLAIN!
DAVE SULLIVAN IS THE WHITE PELE!

Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
