O'Donnell back in goal. Would be a good night for him to start dealing with things a bit better.
Limerick game delayed til 8pm due to the size of the crowd.
Foy and Funston on the bench for Harps after picking up injuries v Longford on Monday night.

Sounds like pure torture in MF from the radio commentary. Limerick making plenty of chances, but still behind.

Six goals and a red in 14 minutes in Belfield
Crushingly dissapointed with Limerick result. May have been a few dodgy decisions (listening on radio, so no idea really) but Limerick had their chances and didn't take them. Pats and Dundalk away before next home game. Will the crowd come back? Serious missed opportunity to hook in some fans I fear.

Four for Ryan Swan tonight, including three in five minutes. Quality player. Won't be with us for too long.
Harps and Wexford losing opens things up too. Would have rather Shels hadn't got that late winner though
Harps very tired looking tonight. Athlone were set up to frustrate us and we just couldn't create any chances. Athlone are an awful side though, really poor. Just got the bit of luck that Harps lacked.

Is he Derek Swan's son or was somebody just winding me up?
Strange game in Tallaght. Was pretty even for the first half even though we went 2-0 up, then they got one back through a freak goal, then they fell apart. We still don't look all that great, but Miele in behind Drennan was a masterstroke from Fenlon and they have real potential. Sligo are in real trouble - even players like Peers who have been great for years just look lost.
Very poor second half display by Dundalk, and just never put Bohs under enough pressure to get anything out of the match. Disappointing result, but a deserved win by Bohs to be fair.
Terrible mistake for Barrett for the first goal with his sending off and Gartland back fit, that's his chance gone for a good while now.
We need a new striker in quick.

Thought it was an entertaining game for any neutral .Mc Milan was really.poor. Great battle between Horgan and Lopez.
BOH'S needed that as performances and morale really dipped over the past few weeks with the amount of injuries to key players
Audacious chip from half way by Dillon would have been goal of the season..
No Mc Ardles on draft was the only disappointing part of the trip.
Seemed to be a nice mix of Bohs fans at this match and one of the few games where I saw easy access for away fans to the upstairs bar.
McArdles, your some man, that went about 20 years ago, stick to the Harp when visiting next

Padraig Amond being mentioned around Dundalk.McMillan can do a lot of things and some of his hold up play is excellent but i don't think he is a striker that deserves a start in every game but we are light in that department and that's why he starts w-o-w,much better off the bench imo.

Haha Nigel you are a gas man. Coming up with any excuse. Look at our injury list. We have our 2nd striker up front who has 1 league goal for us in a season. 2 right backs in centre mid. A left winger playing left back. And a keeper who made his senior debut tonight.
Harps are a filthy team. Tagbo done nothing but lash out at our centre backs all night, but im sure you will disagree with me, and blame us. He should of been sent off for swinging an elbow at Shortall.
Anyways 3 deserved points, and beat Wexford tuesday and we are 7 off top. Long way to go yet.
Athlone Town AFC 1887-2017
Not sure what excuses I'm supposed to have made there, harps did look tired and it was very clear that Athlone were set up to frustrate us. I'll not even humour your comment on Tagbo, blinkers well and truly on there for you.
Playing players out of position isn't an injury crisis.
But if you want to go down that road, harps had McGroary, McNulty and Donelon missing, Keating came off injured, McHugh, Funston and Foy on the bench after picking up knocks against Longford and Packie mailey in for his second start of the season. Assistant manager James Gallagher named on the bench to make up numbers.
Not forgetting that only four days previous we had 120 minutes of cup action.
I'll not take anything from Athlone, they done what they set out to do, fair play to them,
but that was a bloody terrible game of football.
