Drogheda 2 up on Dundalk !

Athlone and Waterford ahead in their games, so the only goalless tie is Treaty-Kilbarrack - the Dubs only lost 1-0 to Harps last year, so always up for the cups, evidently!
Bohs better team and deserved the win, good luck to them
Rovers were atrocious there,Bohs weren’t anything special but deserved to win on the second half performance.
Good efforts from the non league sides away to Athlone,Waterford and Treaty,which has gone to ET,compared to Longfords showing in Galway they’re all solid efforts…..

A bunch of rejects and spoofers starting for Rovers against a collection of mediocre players just getting to know each other. Bohs deserved to win because their manager sent them out with a purpose.
Bradley will be gone at season's end,and it's for this kinda $hite he'll be gone.
Just hope his replacement won't cost too much.
Bohs were the best team by far and fully deserved the win. A few rovers players left a bit on bohs players when going for the ball and the ref let them go. He gave Devoy a yellow for a soft one. Bradley operating up to 10 yds outside the technical area and not pulled for it. Anyway fcku it Bohs 1-0 Rovers
Bohs played well to a point but I think that kind of line-up will struggle to create and score goals outside of set-pieces generally.
Rovers just awful. Initially was going to make the excuse for them of saying they look half the team they are when they lack mobility at wing back, but they were terrible regardless.
Looks like Longford sacked this game off judging by eleven that started…giving fellas a run out…not sure that’s the right approach to Cup competition when your bottom of first division
Haryy Kenny is willing and able and can be available for nowt! No signs of any barns dancing in Weavers Park. A cup run would have been nice but not sure id swap a run to the final for last weeks 3 points, could be crucial and the priority so similar as said above Im finding it hard to be particularly fussed. Would be different if in 4 or 5th and could be the differece between European football next season or not.
We were ok and got better after the goal. Rovers were brutal and at no stage was I worried they would score. Played like it was a warm weather training game.
If the players have stopped listening to him, then it's an exercise in futility.
If he puts out a weakened team against our biggest rivals in the only competition they can realistically win, then that's on him.
No-one at Rovers denies what he's achieved,but time and tide wait for no man
The difference Devoy and Tierney make in midfield is something else. We still badly need a proper striker. Piszczek was absolutely poison and was rightly hooked at halftime. We badly needed that. We have a huge game against Dundalk next week now, and hopefully this will give us some momentum.*
If it is likely that rival clubs and fans would be quite fine with Higgins and Bradley staying the way their sides are playing (though Derry are on a run performances have been off) and have done for an age then the question is worth asking why! Bradley was shown plenty of loyalty in the 1st 3 years as a young manager, he was shown loyalty when he publically had a pop at his club and he hasnt really repaid that recent backing albeit you could argue 1 tie in Europe may have well covered the financial committment. Yeha its ridiculous to keep sacking managers as has been a trend at some clubs and definitely some crazy decisions in the EPL but there is a balance and sometimes sentiment has to e taken out of managerial decisions and I think most Rovers fans would want a changing of the guard.
