Looked a pen alright but after that display Bohs don’t deserve any excuse. Second Waterford goal was a nice finish but home “defending” left s lot to be desired throughout. Squad down to bear bones but defence was experienced enough to do a lot better.
Not looking forward to Derry next week 😵
I fully agree - congratz to the real Shels supporters and their club, promotion means so much to clubs. Best of luck next season.
Table does not lie and no complaints about last nights result as we were not disciplined enough leading to the sending off - always tough with ten men in such a game. Something we need to learn from.
Playoffs here we come
Drogheda United in this together
In fairness to Shels they thoroughly deserve their title after the hard years they have suffered. Hope they go from strength to strength and go back to where they originally were.
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Absolutely ecstatic were are back in the Premier Division. I fancied our chances to seal it last night as Drogheda's head-to-head results against the top 5 teams in the more crunch games was underwhelming
Huge credit to Ian Morris and his coaching staff, for an inexperienced manager to turn it around after a poor start to win the league is a magnificent achievement. Also the squad had question marks too about their effort after the poor start and their response says it all. We will have to strengthen in alot of areas to finish in the Top 8 next season and I think the club will do that
The Leinster Senior League needs a strong Bohemians
Don't fu*k with Tim Clancy
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
He might get in trouble for that, though I hope he doesn't as he was dead right.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
It's strange to see you actually posting something about "Galway".
Some performance from us last night - don't want the season to end now. It's a pity we didn't have this squad in place at the start of the season, the 3-4 signings have really strengthened us. If we can retain the key players from this season and improve on it with a few additions we'll definitely be in the hunt for promotion next year. It was great to see a ruthless edge to us last night, it's something United sides often lack.
roddy collins you're a flanker you're a flanker!
I agree it must seem strange. Bit of a lapsed supporter.There was 5/6 years where I was at nearly every game between 07-13, but University and other life missions got in the way of that. Went to Terryland sporadically after that. I've seen a lot of bad things go down in that period. Bleak. Hope the future is rosier than the past decade has been with all the upheaval.

Presuming Longford can't catch up Drogs 10 goal goal difference, Drogs finish second after Bray beat Longford. Cabinteely v Longford in the first play-off.
The ref we had last night was shocking. Paul Keegan on three occasions got away with not being sent off. But game changed with the sendings off after we took the lead from a lapse in concentration for Bray. Our first sending off was for 2 yellow cards should be one game suspension. As for the second one Anto Breslin could be getting a three game suspension for a straight red.
Think Cabo game in playoffs is going to be extremely tough considering we will be two players down!
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Murphy staying on. For me, he’s done a good job this year given the budget constraints. Some silly decisions to play himself in games but he’s learning too. He’s big on attitude which I like; for too long we’ve had too many lads who don’t give a ****e.
We’ve some v good young players who will be better next season.
Think Cabo in the play-offs is going to be tough given that Jack Doherty is carrying this Longford team. Too many players raised their game for Bohs in the cup, yet in the recent matches that really mattered (Shels and Bray), they went missing. Absolute stupidity from Chambers. Keegan got away with his as he was more subtle about it. Bray deserved their win. Didn't think Doyle did much in the dugout to motivate/manage the players. Doesn't strike me as management material.

A major bookie was running a generous special on Bohs , Pats , Sligo rovers all to win looked great on paper and even upped to odds late on to encourage more bets yet alas Bohs lost and Pats failed to win, obviously Bohs were distracted by the Cup but what was the story with Pats?
