He's left a huge gap which we haven't got close to filling (we actually haven't replaced John Russell really) Chambers isn't up to it IMO.

Maybe Forrester in the middle with Brennan and Bolger would work better.

it looked fine, but it was just fairly "bobbly" in places

Bohs look pretty strange in green!

No sh*t.

Cork City seem to be the most vibrant club at this time. A baton that gets handed around in relay turns nearly. In recent enough times, Shamrock were vibrant and then Sligo. What's going on at Sligo?

Either not enough or too many ex Bohs players.

Really enjoyable game, not sure how it only ended 2-2, I hope Cowan is ok he absolutely tore us apart tonight, same trick every time but very effective.

Longford look dangerous going forward but poor at the back, poor Conor Powell isn't a footballer at all.

We haven't really got going yet this season, we need a big performance and win like the 2-0 win against Sligo in 2013 which kick started our season. Cork in Richmond on Friday would be a start

Pitch In longford is usually one of the best in the country but it's had its problems this year, state of pitches across the league is a disgrace and needs addressing

Seriously entertaining game. I dont mean to do an oriel park on it, but the pitch was really poor, is that a regular occurence ?
we did our very best to give Longford as a big a headstart as possible in the first half.
Longford played a smart game against us and pressed hard and put us under pressure. The few times we got our passing game going you could see the gap between the two teams, but longford will be fine this year anyway.
Stephen rice is still a horrible knacker.

What about Greg Bolger? He can score all the 60 yarders he wants he's a horrible c*nt

That was one of Bolgers cleanest games TBH, he still got booked obviously.

He's great, every team needs a Greg Bolger.

Haha. Gregs a legend. Other teams are supposed to hate him.

**jinxy lilywhite** · 08/04/2015, 7:58 PM

The Audacity of Longford bitching about the Op pitch and their own is a rotten cabbage patch.

**Charlie Darwin** · 08/04/2015, 8:09 PM

I've always thought Longford's is quite good.

**nigel-harps1954** · 08/04/2015, 8:16 PM

Longfords pitch has always been decent enough, but the players have always complained about it being too sandy.

**Longfordian** · 08/04/2015, 8:35 PM

The good thing about grass pitches is that it doesn't take an awful lot to get them back in good nick once the weather improves.

Bloody hate sand on a pitch especially when it skites off a swinging boot or a wet football and blinds ye and every bite of food after has a crunch to it. Rubber pellets aint half as bad.
