Typical Sligo attitude,they know they wont be playing in Europe any time soon (thanks partly to the FAI) so they can take swipes at teams like Derry,Pats and Drogheda who are representing the league at a high european level against much superior leagues.
Sligo know they'll never have to face teams of the calibre of Odense (and happy not to face them) and stick to the usual domestic humiliations like Sligo 0 - 4 St Pats
Very poor result from Pats. I know Odense are a handy side but 0-5 is not good enough.
There was a time when i cared but now
while its a bad result (and no team irish team should be losing 5-0 in europe nowadays), derrys result was far worse imo
According to an RTE radio report at 6.30 Ryan and Rogers had a pushing match after the third goal.

Well said, and 4-1 to Derry,fooking idiots
Carmarthen save their blushes by bagging a third in the 90th minute.
14-3 agg. Phew could have been embarassing
For the criticisers and moaners, if Pats lost 5-0 what would've Shels done?
The Model Club
Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
probably better
BTW Drogheda have won 3-0
why idiots?only one person said this.as well, fair enough ye beat us twice but have a look at the table.hard luck pat's
No worse anyway and i genuinely believe that.

You genuinely believe a team who've lost 4-0 to Monaghan would have matched a 5-0 defeat against Odense?
With respect, you're deluded. New signings or not.
Didn't see or hear the game (and fully expected Pat's to lose) but one can only surmise that Johnny Mac must have got his tactics badly wrong. Teams don't bother scoring more than three in Europe nowadays unless they're enjoying opening their opponents up at will.
A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
I think Barker was injured very early on and replaced by Paisley (not blaming him for the goals),that might have upset the situation in defence,Ryan and Rogers at eachother throats after the second goal didnt help either.
I know Odense are a very good side but we have to sort out our defence pronto,theyre not gelling together.
Listened to the game all the way in to work from just after the 2nd goal and it genuinely seemed like Pats were poor and the tactics were wrong. All I've heard this year is how good quigley is and he was played out of position in both legs? ??
As for the Ryan and Rogers inicident thats making Irish teams look like amateurs
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
Just like Batty and Le Saux and Grobbelaar and Mc Manaman
In Trap we trust
Just for the record it was Shels that missed the peno last season. Talk to anyone who attended the game and you'll be told that the 3-0 Odense was very very harsh. In Tolka we were one up with plenty of chances for 2-0 and then midway through the second half we just seemed to stop playing and things faded out. Games back then came at a stage when the players were going to late wage payments and there was talk of not playing games within the camp.
They are better than St Pats, they may also have been better than Shelbourne but 5-0 results are something we need to avoid.
The problem for me since the draw was made was the talking up of Odense into something they are not. OK they are better but it seemed from the pats fans at least that everyone went expecting a defeat.
Well done to Drogheda
Lets hope for a good draw in the morning
Also comparing the Shels team of today with the one that lost to Monaghan 4-0 is silly.
Shels would have lost to Odense with either team. This doesn't excuse the fact Pats are a better side than 5-0. European games are a chance to showcase the league and this year we've failed and failed in some style so far.

John Delaney!! GET OUT!!!

Where have I said that I'm happy?Odense may be a "good team" but if you're happy that the title challengers are losing 5-0 to a team like them then you obviously don't have any ambition for the league. Mind you, you do support UCD so I suppose...just joking!
The key words there are title challengers, which Sligo are some distance from being, so imagine what they could have done to your lot
Having said that, 5-0 is a poor, poor result, no getting around that. Having seen the home leg I didn't expect us to progress, but I didn't expect a drubbing either. Pats are not in the form they were at the start of the season though, so that has to be taken into account. Ah well, if we get back into europe next year I'm sure we'll do better. This is only the start of the Inchicore revolution after all
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
Dunno how people can laugh, rivarly goes out the window when there representing the country, i was gutted for Pats bad result. Doubt theres a 5 goal difference between the teams, so obviously a really bad day at the office.
