Well done Georgie Kelly; was in the Bowl two weeks ago to collect his First Division medal, and now gets a Premier Division medal as well.

Can't be too many have that double?

Congrats to Dundalk. Has been all but done and dusted for a while. Thought we were very good tonight, and came so close to winning it. Great gutsy display. We need to be like that every game.

Well if you’re going to win a league title, you might as well win it with a beautiful goal like that.
I’d say Hoban will score more in Ridley’s tonight than he has on the pitch all season.

Thats one to bank for the LoI trivia for down the line! Great night, if winning the league was a formality it would have been a bit of an anti-climax to be champions on the back of a defeat. It wouldnt be Dundalk FC if us fans didnt get put through the wringer. Pat Hoban looked quite emotional after scoring and taking that record, a few years of frustration in England has made him a hungry player and now that he has gotten the 26th league goal he might bang in another few before the league finishes. Nothing unlucky about No 13 tonight!!!

Fair play dundalk , best team in the league no question.
Enjoyable game in Tallaght Tonight some good football, rovers just couldn't score.

How were Cork's 2nd string? Talk of rover -1 and -2 I thought was legit considering the game Monday for Cork and the race for 3rd spot being so tight. If Cork have that strength in depth then there is plenty to work with for Caulfield in the close season without needing wholesale changes.

Cork were poor. But basically 2nd string and unmotivated so what can you expect.
Could have been 3 or 4.
Irrelevant hopefully on monday

Huh? You sound like you are a Cork fan from that post??

**sbgawa** · 05/10/2018, 11:14 PM

I meant hopefully rovers failure to score will be irrelevant on Monday if cork beat bohs in the semi.
3rd or 4th place won't matter

**Risteard** · 05/10/2018, 11:21 PM

You have to go all the way back to 2017.

Ah ok, I get ye now.

Patrick Hoban after scoring a 89th minute goal to guarantee the league title and get the Premier Division goal scoring record. A lot of bad memories from three tough seasons in English football were exorcised.

Kavanagh was on loan at Cobh in 2017, wasn't he?

Actually, does Kelly get a medal? 5 Premier Division games so far; 8 if he plays all the remaining games. Is that enough? It used to be 10 in England, but then got reduced to 5.

It's now up to the club. Fai gives a set amount of medals to the club, club decides who gets them.
