Promotion/Relegation play off

[White Horse]

This is not one of their better days. Too busy celebrating just now to notice a goal had been disallowed for several seconds, very irritating. Limerick have upped their game a bit in the last few minutes, but seems like Harps have been much the better team overall.

The game is going as I thought. Russell is not pragmatic enough to set up his team to play on a pitch like this.

I'm just surprised that Harps have not taken the lead yet.

Extra time it is. Limerick have had a few great chances to win it, botched them all.

[Longfordian]

Harps to lose on penalties again?

[Candystripe]

Excellent live commentary on radio foyle with Liam Coyle summarising.

Extra time should be fun.

Harps to lose on penalties again?

I was about to edit my post saying that Harps won't want a penalty shootout.

[NeverFeltBetter]

2-0 Harps. Oh dear.

[White Horse]

Limerick gone.

[Candystripe]

3 mins to hold on.

[Nesta99]

Congrats Harps! The great escape is off now. It was great to see the crowds turning out in the Markets Field but no doubt Finn Park will nice and busy next season either.

[White Horse]

Teams can't stay up if they give goals away as cheaply as Limerick.

[Longfordian]

Good old BJ

2 mins injury time

Limerick player's arguing among themselves.

Limerick will be kicking themselves for not being further ahead going into tonight's game. Disaster for the Munster region this but on the other hand great to have harps back up and hopefully I get to visit there next year.

Limerick just have to look at the first 20 games with only 6 points. They gave it a right go in the end but wasn't to be

[White Horse]

Limerick relegated.

[Candystripe]

Harps are up.

Easy 9 points for Derry next season.

Didn't deserve to win. Had our chances. In this game, and during the course of the season. Finn Harps will be a good addition to the top tier.

I'd been resigned to relegation for a good chunk of the season, but still hard to contemplate after the last month or so. Post-mortem must be thorough and honest, at all levels, chairman, management, players.

[Longfordian]

Didn't see that coming before the first leg I have to say. Congrats Harps, themselves and Wexford coming up will freshen things up a bit. Limerick will be back.

[Nesta99]

Limerick club secretary to forensically examine Harps players registrations now, or is that just a Waterford tactic?

[gufc2000]

Congrats to Finn Harps, Ollie Horgan has done some job up there in the two years he's been in charge. A nice way for Kevin McHugh to end his career and long association with Harps.

Commiserations to Limerick. I thought after the lesson they gave us in Terryland a month back they'd hang on to their top flight status but it wasn't to be.

I think Martin Russel is the right type of manager to have a good go at promotion. Get a good defensive coach in though.
