Where barely a week ago not only was there the realistic danger of being caught by Athlone at the bottom, suddenly not only is seventh place up for grabs on Friday, but even Wexford could come within catching distance depending on results! The temptation will be to stick for the third successive game, rather than to twist the lineup, but might Kennedy be brought in for Dan up top? Either way, Niall Brookwell will be keen to make an impression from the bench through his return, and Joe Adams and Seanie McGrath can always influence the play no matter how many minutes they get in that regard. Harps certainly won't be coming down merely to roll over, and they've certainly shown against both Wexford and Bray that they possess a keen attacking threat, even if their efforts received scant reward on the league table. Three points would officially mean our best return since going senior three years ago, and given fixtures against the top three all await shortly, a win is essential to keep our brief momentum going.
After last year when a best placed finish slipped away, I don't want to get ahead of myself!
Despite an up and down season, the club are entering the business end of the season with an opportunity to create history. Sealing the deal isn't always straightforward though. Hopefully experience will help.
Terrible to allow a free header from the corner. Robbie Cleary should have equalised. Silly sending off by Dan. Missing chances and now losing his head.
Disappointing loss. After a step forwards last weekend, a step backwards this weekend.
The referee was too card happy as well, it has to be said. Thought he was going to keep adding time for us to get an equaliser though. Didn't have the composure tonight.

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.
Beyond awful game of football.

We are dreadful on set pieces. No variation on throws or frees. The Harps defence won't have it any easier than that. Too much route one stuff all night.
The ref was poor, they all are in this league but our discipline is not good at all.
As for Dan I give up
Missed the game, sounds like another frustrating night with another poor refereeing performance. Healy was very frustrated in post match interview with the challenge that put McGrath leaving the game on crutches. Dan’s red card was stupid - mind you the Harps player holding his leg like it just broke in 2 was equally bad.
Not the ideal prep for cup next week.
