1-1 with Pats and Rovers. Pats are so fustrating to watch, in nearly every goal i seen them concede, they just love standing off players and not closing down. The first goal vs Sligo was the exact same, and now with Towell.
PLEASE PUT PRESSURE ON THE BALL!
That is hilarious. Lads, it's professional football, and everybody is going to be a good player if you give them enough space.
St. Pats might be genuinely the softest defending team I have ever seen in a professional squad. How can you just alllow teams so much room? Its not like they are evening chasing shadows like out-of-their-depth teams- it looks more like as players, they refuse to close down and tackle.

Big improvement so far by Kerry, after a nightmare start, but apart from that they've given as good as they've got, so still capable of rescuing a draw from the game.
Cracking strike from Mulraney to grab a late equaliser,Rovers have massive flaws…,

Embarrassing from Rovers. Taking off gaffney and Kenny for grace and Gannon . Pats were crap and we were nearly as bad. League is gone, team has lost its way completely. Or is this a other hard luck story.
Very nice for Rovers to refuse to win the game. Pats against any other team might have conceded 3 or 4. Rovers played the last half hour liked the game was over and won.
In saying that. There was very decent football played by both teams when going forward. Not a bad game to watch at all, very much enjoyed it. Plenty of players of quality, just very soft.
Definitely felt Rovers handed us the initiative with their substitutions. They could have added more at 2-1 up so why the negative subs I don’t know. Smacks a bit of sh1tting the bed from Bradley. As was said earlier we have an awful habit of standing off players and conceding as a result. We were a bit better I suppose today, and a cracking strike from Mulraney. I’d have bitten your hand off for a point beforehand, so happy enough. We still look a good way off though. Lots more improvement needed.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
Agree was sign of desperation when he took off two forwards for two defenders ( in fairness we still created loads of chances) On another night we’d of won 6-2 but we can’t keep saying that after every game…. But it is getting weird how we can’t seem to be able to finish teams off ….. genuinely not sure what the answer is aside from simply beating someone with a clean sheet
Good win for Shels in Cork,Corks defending might see them favourites for the play off spot….

Referees are determined not to give Kerry a penalty for opposition handballs. It's not Gaelic Football that Kerry FC have signed up for!

A Championship: 4 years - 8 first teams - 0 financially ruined. First Division '14: 7 first teams.
Opportunity lost for new clubs/regions to join the LoI family.
Enjoyed that second half Rovers v Pats (forgot it was on early !) some strike by Lord Jack to be fair, plus he was a fair old bit out, lovely curve on the ball too seemed to dip right into the net, excellent strike.
To be fair not a bad equaliser too by Mulraney.
Seemed odd tactics by Bradley taking off attackers, Pats were there for the taking mid way though second half.
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), first Irish club to win points in a group stage in Europe (2016).
Would be a tough one ok for Drogs to take especially missing very late pen, although the goal was a picking your spot type shot, 4 drogs defenders at one stage on Tulley and he still got a pass into the box.
That's 10 points and 1 goal conceded now by Dundalk in the last 4. I'd imagine Drogs will be still be ok this season, not too many will get away wins there.

Good game in Derry,awful awful ref though….

Awful pitch in Derry. Player safety will have to be considered.
Plenty of drama in Bohs v UCD. Great finish for UCD's opener. Afolabi looked to have scored a lovely equaliser after he took down a cross in the centre of the box, swiveled and finished beautifully into the corner but it was ruled out for the ball having been deemed to have gone out of play before being crossed. The replay isn't conclusive from the angle but it appears it was comfortably in. Bohs then get a penalty and paid their best tribute to Harry Kane and Baggio by sending it into high orbit.
Sligo lose 2 right backs in the 1 half to injury…

Bradley doing what Bradley does best and somehow ****s up a handy 3 points v Pats.
It's amazing how when a club with the biggest squad & biggest budget come under pressure how they crumble
