Trevor had his first bad match this season, shows how much we will miss him.
Pats did play some decent football but if burke hadn't got himself sent off I was hoping for a high tempo finish and nick it. Sending off ended that dream.
Still think it's an improving team and will keep getting better , ,,,,12 new players ..second half of season will be interesting ..league over, all abut 2nd 3rd and 4th now
We decided to play safe in second half which was never going to work with our defence...was behind that chance it was Connelly not McCabe and it came off his shin...delighted Hery got us back in the lead after giving away the peno he was very good on the ball in the first
Draw a fair result in Dalymount tonight Good crowd again but smallest turnout from Dogs I can remember.
Detainees from the Direct Provision centres were guests at the game tonight, yet another form of torture for them, seriously though, they enjoyed the night.
Fair play to Cork done us well in our own ground and all.
I see that the usual Cork suspect here is not willing to just enjoy the season their having and is still taking pot shots at others! GROW THE FUQ UP!!
Been in my head all night:
DRAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWDAA
6 scoreless draws on the bounce i think?
Rovers players were dead on their feet in the 2nd half, more energy in a snail on sleeping tablets. the only one that looked fit was Finn, 2 games in 4 days big factor tonight.
Derry unbeaten in nine after steadying the ship after losing Ryan. Serious amount of injuries this season too. Made hard work of the game though after going 2 up.
So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html
That's nonsense, to be fair. They have goals all over the pitch. Granted, some of that is the fact Maguire occupies so many players with his movement, but having watched the game back tonight Cork would have won without him.
Rovers were pretty poor tonight. Thought not playing McAllister backfired as Connolly looked leggy in his second game back, but in general Pats just controlled most of the game. A lot of talent in that team and they'll be OK if they can maintain that level.
Burke is an absolute spanner. Was probably the best player on the pitch until then alongside your man Desmond for Pats.
Our problem is clear. We have played 17 League games and scored the first goal only once.
Our HT record is 0-6-11 and we've only scored 4 first half goals.
It looks like Shane Keegan is good at devising a plan for the 2nd half and reacting to what he's seen in the first but why can't we have a plan that works for the first half??
I think our players are good enough but for the first time all season I think we might go down.
Yeah, unusual to see us so open at the back alright.
But for pretty much the entire first half - after they scored the soft early goal - all Cabo did was boot long out of defence and straight back to us. We must have had 70/80% possession. They made practically no attempt to pass the ball - was all just first time lump it up the pitch.
They improved second half in fairness, and started playing properly once they went down to ten, which made no sense really.
The bottom 3 at the moment will enhance the First Division next year for the first time since the Premier re-expanded to 12.
Derry, Dundalk and Shamrock are only visiting Limerick once this year. As long as the powers that be don't plump for the ridiculous split, Limerick can look forward to Cork, Derry, Dundalk and Shamrock Rovers coming twice. No offence to the rest but these are the quality teams people want to see.
