Very encouraging performance last night, especially with all our injuries - certainly we deserved the point. Would have been all three but for that ridiculous corner which led directly to their goal...

There's now only Shels, Bohs, Rovers and Cork have better defences than us, which is a good sign. The bad is obviously that Rovers are ninth in the goal-scoring charts with over twice as many goals as us...

Three games unbeaten now though, six goals in six games, seven points in seven games and five times we've taken the lead in the last five games. It's still not great, but it's a definite sign that we're going in the right way at last.

Touch wood, we can beat Belgrove on Friday, which will hopefully give the players a bit of a boost going into the Drogheda match - we have to start beating Derry, Drogheda, Longford and Waterford.
