Games weekend 10th to 13th October

[legendz]

A low energy game from a Kerry perspective both in the stands and on the park. Probably to be expected after the excitement and energy around last weekend's semi final. The second half fizzled out disappointingly. Wexford took their chances well. Kerry have two away games next week. Looks like they'll be running on empty.

Shels channel their inner Bohs and delay our crowning …. Cracking finish to the game but just wasn’t to be…. Next week

Well done to Dundalk ….. hopefully they’ll install a new grass pitch and put some money into providing reasonable away facilities.

100% agree on both, but it won't be next season, both are well overdue and most Dundalk fans fully aware of the need to improve on this.

Well its been a tough auld 12 months for one reason or another, my football club seemed to mirror my own issues and now both getting back to better times. Of course a lot of hard work to still do and make recovery count but part 1 now complete. Without any curveballs Im even given the go ahead to resume normal service early in the new year with work. Dundalk FC surviving was just as important to me as anything else in a strange way, now lets hope for consolidation, the additional investment mooted and start to thrive starting with 8th place next season, that would do me. Get cracking on replacing the pitch asap, strengthen the squad and let Kilduff continue to show that he is a managerial talent. Happy times with no small amount of relief and apreciation for just being around!

*I should add that I never ever want to need winning that trophy ever again!!

I suppose I should be magnanimous and say well done Nesta and say ( through gritted teeth😁) welcome back to the big time.
We haven't missed your woeful football ground,but we have missed your teams inimitable "bantz" and character. I look forward to Rovers struggling to get a draw at best up in OP next season!
p.s - get well so you can go to the games, mate 👍

There is serious jeopardy for every side that has to play Rovers so the European places will in flux to last day. Rovers will win the title but a bit like Dundalk it will be a bit of a stress for the side if they dont just wrap it up asap, probably more likely Derry dont take an opportunity to put pressure on. It's possible if unlikely that St Pats win in Inchicore, they need a response to the cup humiliation and they are at home. If Derry can beat a Waterford and next up is Rovers at home and its 9 pts to 3 going in to playing Galway's must win in Tallaght well it may be a little more interesting yet but really that hinges on Derry win away to Waterford for a bit of fun for a bit longer.

Ireland have a better chance of beating Portugal. Glad youre on the mend though, and Dundalk should never have been in a relegation situation. I cant wait for this season to be over. It landed squarely in the toilet the moment Moses Dyer left, back in June. If somehow we do stay up this season, we're firm favorites to get done next year.

I guess it's only me that thinks that Barrett's was a stonewall red.

A shocker of a tackle, off the ground, out of control, at pace, the reddest red you’ll ever see. Like something out of a Worst Sunday League Tackles Ever video comp.

[Dermobohs]

Red all day, stupid tackle too, miles from goal.
