Where in Alicante??
Typical preseason game in freezing cold conditions. Good crowd in Oriel tonight though. Must have been 700-800 in at least.

UCD 2-2 Longford today
Looks like we were getting battered for the first half until scoring twice in the minutes before the break.
Lots of changes in the second half, so hard to know what to make of it overall. No lineups for either side that I can see.
Bohs 3-1 Shels
Rovers 4-0 Bray
Both this morning….

Bohs in their second game of the day 4 nil up at half time against Pats. Afolabi, Akintunde and Williams scoring a good few in pre-season so far.
Seen a video of Chris Forrester on crutches at a pre season game a couple of days ago,be a big blow for Pats if that’s serious….

Cork City 3-0 Treaty United
Tunde Owulabi (2) and Barry Coffey
Owulabi is a new one. Have seen Tundi, Owalabi, Awolabi and several other variations but that's a new one for me. Like the Bazunu/Bazuna misspelling it's wonderful.

Was actually 3-1, not sure how the FAI Connect app had it as 4.
It's not apparently. Will have him out for a couple of weeks but back well in time for the start of the season. Thank god.
Was at it myself, genuinely bizarre stuff that they added 4 goals for Bohs. There wasn’t even a disallowed goal or anything that could be considered an understandable error. Same last night, they had it down as 2-0 Galway for a long period until correcting it to be 1-0 (finished 1-1 in the end BTW)

The two ucd goals were a penalty by Jack keaney and a nice goal by Tobi jinad who was playing centre forward in the first half. First half UCD were basically playing the remains of the 2022 first team (healy, keaney, nolan, keane, Gallagher , higgins) with some youngsters. Second half it was all U19 or LSL I think with healy in goal, didn't recognise any of them. Based on the first half, there is potential there but the new ones will face a steep learning curve. No sign of dylan duffy or Sam todd.

"Highlights" of Dundalk/Harps!!

Our goalscorers were Magesuran and Derek Daly.
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Tobi Jinad was let go by UCD, the new striker possibly a lad called Divine who came from Bohs U19. Todd injured, Duffy was gone to Lincoln before the end of last season
Sorry about that, I was going off the squad numbers for the ones I didn't recognise in the first half. There were no lineups for the friendly. Shame about Todd.
Rovers just posted goals from yesterday's friendlies. Ian Ryan needs to find some defenders fast, those lads wouldn't get a kick in the LSL the way they defended yesterday. Webster wasn't playing, but Massey and Cole were playing, shambolic defending for all the goals. Ryan's achiles heel at Wexford was defending, a lot of work to do.
Derry City 6-0 Finn Harps in the Brandywell this afternoon
