20 mins and Dundalk have scored and conceded and scored. Anyone else with a very patchy loitv feed.
Derry 1 up also.

Hope Brian Kerr enjoyed that…. Not a classic but result is what counts ; plus anther late goal to relish …. That’s three in four games against Pats….

THAT, that is why we're Champions of Ireland!!
Very, very comfortable game for Rovers against the 2nd place team in the league. Kept the opposition at arms length, and in the last 10 mins looked the most likely to score, and did just that.
Job done. Game over.

If games were 88mins Rovers would be relegation fodder - but yup there is nothing like late winners!
Early doors (kind of ahem) but feels like Dundalk have turned a corner. Bohs now Monday will be another step to get out of the mire. Have to credit the corwd and the shed in Oriel for getting well behind the side from the start.
Rovers are dreadfully boring to watch bit fair play, good athletes and that can get you by at this level much of the time defensively. Glad the other results went our way tonight at least.
Impressive win in Dalymount. I’d have taken a draw after the week we’ve had. It’s getting congested at the bottom.
Important win for us ,rode our luck in the first half but got a bit of it for our first goal and probably created the better chances after that before grabbing a second,Bohs actually looked really tired in the second half which was my what I thought would be our problem,nice to get a win in Dublin though.....
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
Biggest crowd in the Markets Field for quite some time, great atmoshpere, but the game wasn't up to much. Treaty defensive all night long and happy with the 0-0 draw, and Cork unable to work out a way through the home defence.

And if seasons were 27 games long..........
How is long getting away with this. 10 losses. Must be great to have to achieve nothing and have journos and fans tell u ubare great ��. New 4 year contract incoming please god
I heard there was trouble outside the ground after the game?
Thought rovers dominated possession in the first half but it was a lot of side to side stuff and the only chance of note created was Mandroiu's volley which he ballooned out of the ground. Second half was more of a role reversal with Pats having the majority of the ball and created some good chances without conceding too many. It’s a shame Forrester's header early in the second half didn’t hit the net. Many thanks to Finn Harps and Dundalk for easing the pain of defeat

Brilliant, just like the sligo lads in 2010/11. "Youse might be winning but you're brutal to watch and we're great to watch". Can't wait for hopefully another season of it.
I was out of there immediately so don't know anything about that. I did hear a few flares as I headed towards the car, and I did have a Garda car with sirens going pass me in my car, heading in that direction.
EDIT: Limerick Now page on Facebook reporting that 'Things got very heated outside the Marketsfield in Garryowen between fans' but the accompanying video just shows some flares, smoke, shouting, and tuneless chanting.
Hopefully that was the extent of it.

My father was at it, said he witnessed a "free-for-all" between two groups of fans outside the ground, said a lot of Garda showed up. Hopefully he's exaggerating.
He also said the game was dire.
The neavoux riche DCFC will batter ya’s next year though. We will win the league by 10+ pts.
Rovers relegated and Dundalk in a playoff.........you didnt take that comment seriously did you? If you believe all the rumours doing the rounds tonight Rovers will have to break out the kitchen sinks to keep up with Derry next season and a lot more business to be done. They've been quick out of the traps for 2022. Interesting undercurrent of this run in. Cup draw rotten but would be fascinating if the final is Dundalk v Waterford if one or other is in the playoff days before.
Draw was no good to us so the goal at the end doesn’t make much difference. Sligo losing tonight was helpful, full focus can now go on winning the Cup.
