Well done Drogs.
Best team won.
Well done on the numbers you brought down, and the colour they generated, I hope the majority of them are back to watch you next season, Enjoy the win!

Just like to add my congrats as well.
Great crack with the Drogs in Murray's beforehand, and a good laugh with a few of you after as well. Enjoy the buzz, you deserved it yesterday, and hopefully a good few who came for the first time yesterday will come back for next season.
Well done Drogheda united
...from all the genuine EL supporters at Sligo Rovers too.
Nice to see that the world does not revolve around Patrick Street...

Still thawing out from the game, back at all hours last night. Woke up today feeling sorry for meself and for the CCFC team and manager.
But what the feck. We were beaten by a Drogheda side who came down to Dublin hungry for a win. It was not a pretty game to watch, but I loved the passion that the Drogs players and supporters brought to Lansdowne Road. I am really looking forward to seeing ye at Turners Cross next season. I reckon the Derrynane Stand will not be big enough for ye.
A few stray kicks aside, I thought ye played us fair and square off the park. This is what sport is all about. Dead certainties are a thing of the past in Irish soccer. Who would have thought that in two consecutive years, four different teams would contest the FAI cup final, and not one of them from Dublin!!
I brought a squad of kids with me to this game. They saw two excellent goals, full blooded passionate play, and a deserving team, manager and fans take away a big prize in Irish sport.
This is a great occasion for Drogheda, and not before its time. Sincere congratulations from this Cork city fan.

Only kidding, great to see Drogs win it ... its a reward for all the investment that has been put in at United Park, its only right ..... the best team on the day won it, and thats what the competition is about.
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
Congratulatiosn Drogheda United. It was great to see Vincent Hoey enjoying the success after all his years toiling away.
I believe the Drogheda Indo gave 29 pages in the Cup Final preview. Wow.
Best of luck in Europe next season but will United Park be a venue under all those new UEFA rules thingys?? Hate to see your Euro games shifted to Dublin.......no offence to Dublin BTW.
