Yeah, it should be. I know it's been a long time since we dropped points against Harps but I hate the prevalent attitude that we have a right to three points against Harps in every game. That's probably the Donegal coming out in me tho (and I'd say I'm in a minority of 1

)

Not surprised! Your team are hardly gonna have confidence when they see their fans wearing Cork City scarves!

You can expect some abuse if I see you in the library...(Pats fan from 4th year by the way!!)

Wow, that's a bit weird. I know another Pats fan in Trinity in 4th year as well. That's, including ourselves, 7 eircom League fans I know in Trinity. A veritable breeding ground.

We were rubbish tonight, got what we deserved. Speaking of getting what they deserve, yours truly won the half time draw at the game tonight, the prize you ask? Two tickets to Celtic v Hibs, flights, accomodation and spending money included, and who says nice guys finish last....

Nah, that'd be me! I'm the Pats fan who caught you on the ramp wearing the Derry jersey and the Cork scarf! You should put that scarf to good use and join the Cork crowd in Richmond on Sunday to watch em get beat! Top o' the league 6 points clear here we come.

Worthy of a point tonight. Defended well and counter-attacked well. Rogers was excellent aswell.

Massive game next friday against Harps if we win were right back in it.Having John Russell back was a huge boost .So hopefully Derek will be ok and we can get one or two of the injured lads back challenging for places.

Delighted to win tonight. We didn't play as well as we did in the last few games but we just about had enough to see Cobh off.

Fair play to Cobh though. Went down to ten men when Alan Kearney was stretchered off and they actually went for an equaliser. Nervous last ten minutes for us.

Delighted with how things have turned around. Five weeks ago, if anyone had said Bray would be fifth in five weeks time, they'd have been laughed off the site. Really incredible turn around and we're now eight points clear of relegation.

Didn't the last time it happened. God bless Paul Osam (and handily for Oso, he's now his assistant)

Awful result for Rovers like Sligo's win in Ballybofey.

The only side Rovers have beaten at home are now three points above them..

Youths were awful in Fingal. Looked confident in the first ten minutes, then fell apart. Made Robbie Doyle, in his tights, look world class and Dave Rodgers was like Paul McGrath at the back! Youth tried to hoof the ball to a centre forward that didn't exist and when they hoofed it down the line it invariably went into touch. Depressing night for the 60 or so Youths supporters. Worse than any performance I saw last season. Still, I live in hope.

Pats did great that night...it was like they had two keepers at one point there and of course 12 men...Dick O'Hanlon not so much

Monday is a League Cup game. No points at sake.

5/5. And not a single one was a penalty. Ridiculous...

(Though I'd have settled for a point before tonight)

Wow, 10 years and you still can't admit it didn't cross the line, and was saved by the goalkeeper? DIdn't realise it hurt so much. Must remember to bring it up more often so

**ForzaForth** · 03/05/2008, 8:31 AM

Agree with Passinginterest. Robbie Doyle looked good and the tall baldy forward beside him completed more passes than all the Youths put together.

Is the Frank O'Neill mentioned in the Fingal programme as assistant coach the great Hoops player? One of the best I ever saw in the LOI.
