Both

The Galway and Sligo roads split at Kinnegad (Right at the Roundabout just outside Kinnegad for Longford/Sligo) - same road out of Dublin.

That time of the day, the only possible spanner in the works could be the M50 toll bridge but can never judge that really (and possibly Leopardstown if there's a meeting - in that case go Enniskerry, Kilternan way to M50)

What difference does it make how we get there as long as were at the match. It's not as like if we don't go down on the supporters bus that we wont be supporting the team !

Exactly once we are there what odds does it make....

Should be a good game, both teams playing extremely well. Bray will have a good crowd going down and longford will have their usual good crowd. Hopefully Bray will win, if not draw and remain unbeaten.

Beaten 2-1... Longford fully deserved their win as attack after attack came at the Bray defence. A defeat had to come sometime lads. Pick ourselves back up for nxt week against Waaaaterford. Great to see a good travelling support from Bray aswell. About 100 i'd say

. Pty about Zayeds late miss as it would have got us a point that didn't look likely!!!!!!

No complaints what so ever about the result. The best team won, it should have been more but some poor finishing and a few smart saves from Chris.
We started off brightly enough and both teams traded attack for attack for the opening 30/35 minutes, which we were in the lead at this stage through a super set piece. Longford had more of the ball but we were still in front at half time and had it in our own hands.

2nd half Longford were excellent ! some really good football from them, and as Tarzan said they are by far the best team we have played this season, was really impressed by Fitzgerald and Kirby, both had superb games. We also made things a lot easier for them as well by making to many tactitcal changes. We sat back and tried to defend what we had instead of trying to play in the same way as we did in th 1st half.

Eamo shoud have finished off his only chance of the game, it would have been an undeserved point but i'm not sure any Bray fans would have been complaining !

We had to loose at some stage, time to start again, i can see us beating Waterford this Friday.

What about Alan Kelly's Hair

What was he thinking ? "did your mammy dye your hair ?" Good travelling support as well, fair play to everyone who made the short trip down, great to see, easily 100 from Bray made the trip.
