QuoteShels miss a pen and 10 minute later its 3 nil Bohs,Danny Grant will be cross channel soon I reckon,real talent.........
Longford were 2 up to 6-2 down,better craic in the first division!
Bohs 1-0 at half time. Dominating Shels and should have the game sown up. Gary Deegan somehow only got a yellow card for a dangerous 2 footed tackle

Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
Nice result for harps.
Danny Grant won player of the month and got dropped from the Irish U21 squad. Danny Mandriou has barely kicked a ball since the last U21 game but is still in the squad.Originally Posted by joey B
It could have been more than 4-0 but think that was partly down to Sligo not having a proper full back (is Noone the best you've got) and Rovers just playing well. Buckley did have yous set up to attack so you were going to leave gaps but, yeah, apart from that one break at 3-0 I don't think you had our defence worried too much.
Not really sure why Banks has been dropped as had assumed he was just being rested on Tuesday night and Cooper would have been a much better option at left back then Teemu. 1 goal in 5 games for us now a bigger worry for me.
1 goal scored, 38 conceded against Dundalk since 2016...Today's the day to change that 😎
Is there a worse nickname than "Tobercurry Tornado"? :P Good contests in Dundalk. They really should be ahead though. A clear penalty at the end of the first half IMHO.
You'd have to ask Toberona Tornado
Anytime soon lads to stick it in the net. Games in hand can ve a pain!!
Great point for harps. Gets shels back within shooting distance.
Dundalk 20 points behind rovers now with 6 games left.
No one even the most ardent rovers fans couldn't have called this.
I think DFC may live to regret the early call on fillipo.
Did Dundalk make ten changes again? What's the point of that? I think even Dundalk fans would acknowledge it'd be very bad for them to miss out on Europe. So it seems daft to be putting out the stiffs - hammered against Rovers last week - out in a game where three points would otherwise be expected.
Unless filippo is targeting the CL spot for winning the EL of course
Great point for Harps. Scrappy, far from pretty, but a good battling performance.
Shamrock Rovers is a free hit for us, but Pats up next in Finn Park in two weeks time is an absolutely massive game for us now.
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
Pats scored there first goals this century in their last game , that is a definite oppurtunity
Shels last game is at home to rovers , 100% guarantee rovers will be up for that match.
Last Sunday was proof (again, not that it was needed) that our reserves are nowhere near good enough, or simply some don't want to be here (Flores for one), so they never should have played for the club again - unless absolutely necessary, maybe when 3rd was secured in between European games at the end of this month.
It was a crazy team lineup and we got what we deserved. We haven't got another game until Friday ffs. That was our easiest game left on paper, should have played our strongest team and made sure of 3 points.
Can't blame Filippo on the lack of strength in depth in the squad but he has to take the blame on team selection tonight.
Shane Keegan is way too involved now as well. The relegation king shouldn't be anywhere near the bench, and now that Giuseppe was sent off, he'll be promoted to assistant for a match or two. He needs to go, along with nearly half the squad.
No positives at all from that, a depressing 90 minutes - apart from the fact that Cork and Fenn must be cracking up looking at that lineup and result!
Don't think he has been offered anything yet, that was just the chairman shooting his mouth to a local journalist who has his ear and direct contact. I'm sure it's the intention to offer him a contract, but think the journo made a big deal out of the quotes so that he could make money off the interview.
I'd still be happy with him getting the job. Europa League group stages sealed that.
Bill has spoken
Did not see the match and for some reason thought it was a 7ish KO. Bit surprised to hear it was all change again from Thursday. Games in hand, tight enough 3rd -6th and playing a side,with no disrespect to Harps, you should expect 3 points from. Very strange. Top 4 will probably get Europe and it would be a major surprise if Dundalk don’t finish in those places but you can’t be taking anything for granted. Two points dropped for sure!
All it does is put extra pressure on next week's game in Richmond. Pats with a bit of confidence after a win in Cork, Georgie Kelly maybe with a point to prove, and now it's more of a banana skin than it needs to be. A defeat and they would be in danger of missing Europe. It's bizarre, and surely unnecessary
Georgie Kelly can’t play in this game. It’s unnecessary pressure on these upcoming games. The game today was one to get us back into third. We really should’ve played the strongest team available and then make a few changes if the game was won.
Harps could have nicked one and closed to within 4 points of dundalk....
