    40 defeats in 41 games for Non-League teams in the past 5 FAI Cup seasons is pretty damning even considering results were not great 10-15 years ago

    I would have to try find time to work through further season backwards and something similar for Premier Division vs First Division I feel may also tell a growing gap

    Staying over, hotel job, on a school night, early round of the cup?????..............the good times must be back D24

    Sure why not, enjoy it, can relax and have a few drinks, bit of grub etc now.

    Looking forward to our game later at 5pm, pity its so damn wet, hopefully it will clear up a little.

    That really was unforgivable. Rovers struggling to break down a 10 man Dundalk with a number of players missing.

    He could have his own miss of the season competition. Poor lad must have no confidence in front of goal at the moment.
    But his general play and linking up is quite good when I’ve seen him. Just needs some goals to get his confidence back.

    Titanic performance by Dundalk after the sending off. Boyle put in one of his best performances of his career - Muller picked a great time to come good.

    Rovers badly missed Byrne and Gaffney. Burke looks very poor, although Burt was very good when he came on. You'd feel a bit sorry for Kenny. If he just scored, he would be a hell of a player. You could imagine him somewhere else banging in goals. Sean Maguire stuff before landing at Cork you would be hoping.

    Feel if the game was played for another hour, Rovers still wouldnt score though.

    Don’t feel sorry for Kenny at all … from day one with us he’s missed a string of chances and tonight summed him up… also he gives off an attitude of arrogance/self pity which needs to be stamped out…. Hope he comes good but needs to very quickly…. Anyway hopefully we can struggle over the line in the league but doubt we will..,, then Bradley needs to figure how to rebuild and bring in the right players ( aside from Clarke last Summers signings haven’t performed- ie Kenny and Burt who was beyond useless again today).

    Will Longford-Pats be the first tie of the weekend which will require extra-time?

    Thought Burt was dangerous when he came on. Burke - what has happened to him? Just injuries? Was awful tonight. For a lad with some Irish caps, he should be much better.

    No. No it will not. Oh well, good effort from Town.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    Yeah, nervy enough for long spells, though we were always on top, but Longford always looked capable of getting something, which transpired. We got a couple of breaks then, with the peno and the sendings off. The result the main thing, and it’s great to get through. Great to get Joe Redmond back on the pitch too.
    Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.

    We were poor for a lot of the game but things went enjoyably mental in the last 15 minutes or so.

    Longford have a serious disciplinary problem, 9 red cards after today which includes ones for Gavin Peers and Stephen Henderson. These things start at the top.

    I actually thought Burke was one of our better performers….. and Burt added zero …. That’s the joy of football we all have an opinion and we’re all always right !!

    As for Burke not being his best season and tonight a rare start ( down to injuries) so he’s never really got going this season …. We could do with him hitting his stride for league run in

    Fair enough comment. Jack Brady's been sent off twice alone. I haven't seen all the red cards but it is an obvious issue.
