The commentary on UCD v Derry was brutal.. well, at least one of the commentators was brutal
Played much better tonight and had enough chances to win but a combination of poor finishing and very good saves the Drogheda goalkeeper left us with only a point,if we can cut out silly mistakes at the back we’ll be ok….
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.

I wouldn't write Morris' Waterford obituary just yet. Morris did not have particularly good starts with Shels in the first 6 to 8 games of both of the 2019 and 2021 First Division title winning seasons before Shels went up a gear becoming very difficult under him to take any points off often going on runs of winning games by the odd goal
But looking at the First Division this season Waterford definitely stiffer competition with full-time teams like Cork and Galway looking potential viable league winners. Morris' style of football while not terrible hoofball is definitely conservative quite unadventurous may not be compatible with alot of that Waterford squad
The Leinster Senior League needs a strong Bohemians
Had apparently clear penalties not given v Shels and Harps as well; that'd make a bit difference to the table and a bit of early confidence.
But yeah, we need a win as well as a goal at this stage, and that's not a good mix.
I think our worst performance was the one where we scored twice, strangely (away to Drogheda)
That’s a large part of the problem, Morris is trying to implement a style with a squad suited to play football. It’s not just going to suddenly click. Not to mention there’s many players underperforming as Morris isn’t playing to there strengths. Wordsworth has been a huge disappointment so far but he’s been played in a defensive role. He should be playing higher up the pitch. Signing an attacking type midfielder to play a defensive role, one of the many odd decisions by Morris. Not to mention he’s probably on a big wage.
Rovers strolled through the game tonight against what I saw as the worst team we've played this season, but strolling through games has a habit of biting you on the arێ.
Thankfully order was restored, albeit in the last minute.
Rovers are very, very far from the finished article so far this season but assumptions are being made that we'll kick into gear eventually and just take control of the league-having quality like Danny and Watts coming off the bench certainly helps.
Shels will finish 3rd bottom, if they're lucky.
Tad disappointed with the Dundalk turnout for the game alright but nevertheless was great to be there for the return of "THE" O'Donnell. Great atmosphere in the ground,expected it be to more hostile tbh.
As for the win comment?? That just you being bitter? or sarcastic?
Some match winning goal from Aaron Greene. He's a player that's driven me mad before with his lack of finishing. There was some 5 yard sitter in Europe last year or the year before that summed him up for me. But the man knows how to hit a long-range worldie.
Entertaining match in Richmond, St Pats really should have won, but Dundalk's keeper is something else. 2 De-gea like saves last night to give Dundalk a point they didn't really deserve. Great crowd there too, which looks so good on the telly. Definitely one of the better 0-0 stalemates I've seen recently, but Pat's lack of cutting edge was obvious enough at times, which it would be without Forrester.
Excited about Galways future again after years of nothing. Having the Comer Brothers as majority owner, knowing they more than likely will invest fairly substantially is great news. I can't see the situation ending up in the farce that was Nick Leeson's tenure. The PD needs a Galway team in it again. Should be a comfortable win this evening away to Wexford to help the push.

Derry won at a canter,never got out of second gear,poor game overall…

I thought we played alright but lacked cutting edge upfront.
Toothless up front, Mahdy has been awful this season. Taking Hery off instead of Mahdy was a mistake from coaching staff.
Nice to see Derry fans continuing the same vein of being a shower of pr!cks too. Weird obsession with stealing flags, and several ejected from the ground by security

Well that lasted a predictably short period of time...
