    Talking

    Positive attitude from Stephen O'Donnell on fixture congestion

    Friday’s match marked the start of a gruelling schedule that will see Dundalk play, at the very least, another 15 times between now and the end of October but O’Donnell said that it was a challenge he was looking forward to.

    “There’s no point us talking about the schedule,” he said. “We just need to get it done. What’s the point in us talking about it?

    “We’re more than capable of playing twice a week with the squad we have so there’s no point in moaning. That’s the way it is. We just need to get it done.

    “Obviously the season could be scheduled better but that’s the way it is. You ask yourself would you rather be out of Europe and the answer to that is definitely no. It is what it is so we will have no excuses on that front.”

    If they're more than capable of playing twice a week why not keep playing league fixtures during the early Euro rounds...

    Have heard that Harps will be playing Dundalk on Monday 12th September (if Dundalk don't have a Cup replay). so more likely we will play Sligo on Friday night this week than Saturday night. Sligo, though, don't want to play on Friday for some reason.
    Up the Harps!!

    Saturday night works best for us. No reason we should change.
    Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
    Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
    Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!

    That's in two weeks. Cup weekend next weekend.

    Normally, yes, but this is a rearranged fixture and has to suit both teams schedules so surely there's wiggle room?

    Problem with that though Dundalk play Europa League game on the Thursday!

    Sligo should count themselves lucky that they can rearrange a cancelled home fixture immediately for a Friday night

    Apparently both clubs have agreed game for Saturday night according to Donegal Democrat.

    That means Harps will have to play Saturday against Sligo and Monday against Dundalk again.

    Dundalk v Rovers will take place in Oriel on Tuesday 20th September. 7:05 kick off aswell,which is a pain, as the game will be on RTE 2.

    Really struggling with this one. Why could the game not have been played Friday night? Surely Friday suits Sligo better than a Tuesday night?

    Harps now will have 6 matches inside 19 days. Stephen Kenny isn't the only one with problems.

    Bizarre call by Sligo. Better home gate on a Friday night over a Tuesday night (also a Champions League match night) and they have set themselves up for 3 games in the space of 6 days that week? Don't get it
    The Leinster Senior League needs a strong Bohemians

    I think his point is obvious. We would rather have played both games with our full squad. Unfortunately we couldn't do that so we had no choice but to postpone the games. Hopefully that puts to bed the "theory" that we only did it to mess with Dundalk.
