    Dundalk will win tonight. I'm thinking 2 or 3-0. Wexford are giving a debut to their pink shirt tonight apparently. Thats 1-0 to Dundalk already.

    Early stages but Dundalk look like they will finally get to the Premier after a few years in the wilderness.

    Im hoping to head down to Cobh for Ramblers - City, this tense Cork Derby is enough to bring out this Villa loving fan to brave the elements of uptown Cobh, think i might avoid Nimmo's after!, no their Bolognese Chips are just too good!

    Ramblers to humble the big names!

    Fairly poor game last night. Dundalk should have been about 4-0 up at half time. Really took their foot off the pedal in the second half.
    Bennion only made one decent save all night. Wexfords goal came from a goalmouth scramble after some very sloppy defending from a corner.

    Wexford gave it a good shot but were a bit short on quality tbh. They are fairly naive at the back (Dundalks second goal came from defensive fcuk up) and don't pose much threat up front but kept battling away.

    Thankfully there were no pink jerseys on show last night, and to the best of my knowledge no pink t-shirts in the crowd!!


    Early stages but Dundalk look like they will finally get to the Premier after a few years in the wilderness.

    Its only March, so i wouldn't start sucking each others dicks just yet..!
    Last year we were thumping teams left right and centre in the first few weeks, then had a very poor mid-season. Would hope they learn from it this year. Although it is good to stretch a lead out and make the other contenders work for it early on..

    Edit: Missed Cassidy in Midfield last night. Felt like Crowley and Sheils were too similar and not enough creativity. Much the same as last year when ever Shaun Williams was missing.

    Its an absolute dive mate. Glad we don't have to go there for another month:D

    There's only one tiny little terrace with a roof, but you'll probably have to pose as a Limerick fan to get in there.

    Rest of the ground is just completely open.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,154 ✭✭✭Ronan|Raven


    Ah well, always out in the open in Flancare so will survive. An ill wind blows :)

    McCabe and Foran defo out for Bray whilst Tresson Myler and Rowe all doubtful. If those 3 don't start for Bray then 5/6 is a great price otherwise it could be a tight old game.

    A better 5/6 in my opinion is Bohemians to be leading after 60 mins V Finn Harps. Byrne and Crowe up front for Bohs could run amuck tonight. Reckon this could be 3 or 4-0 to the Bohs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    You have me wondering now. Hopefully I can get info on the Bray doubts before KO

    Mike.

    Limerick 37 up 2-1, i'm confident Longford will come back tho:D

    Latest

    Bray 0-2 Pats

    Ominous for the rest of the season.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,346 ✭✭✭✭KdjaCL


    Partridge MOTM Paisley wasnt bad either.

    Bray were very poor and never really threatened couple of half chances.

    Never seen so many players get hit by the ball at a football match :shock:

    1st goal was a corner paisley headed hit someone and pinged in. 2nd was superb play Fahey drove into midfield and laid out to O Neill who was wide on the right who drilled a pass to quigley who tapped in.

    3rd goal Fitzpatrick went down the left and played a tru ball for kirby to cross and quigley head home back post.

    Our defence and attack were very good, the midfield did well protectin the back four but Ryan Fahey and Dempsey were guilt of a lot misplaced passes and never imposed their game on bray. Bray tried to play a tight game but just not good enough. Clarke had **** all to do.

    Shels 2-0 Athlone

    Player sent off for each team. Really could have been 4 or 5 nil to Shels, Athlone didn't see much of the ball and when they did they wasted it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 17,122 ✭✭✭✭Nalz


    same at Bohs game... player sent off after bout 20 mins. Comfortable for Bohs after that, Jason Byrne first goal from the spot, Crowe had a good game for a change.

    headed off to queenstown shortly for the cork derby. awful feckin weather for it though, lashing down here. and it's going to be cold, it's always feckin cold in saint coleman's park.

    cobh available at 10-3 for the win, which is good value imo. anything can happen in derby games, and i reckon rams could sneak a win. city are crap at the moment, and i dont see them improving tonight.

    i'll go cobh 1-0, as much as it pains me to say it.

    No chance mate, Cork will win this game. Cobh were exposed for the ordinary outfit they were last week by the Drogs. They didn't strenghten their squad in the close season and they're going straight back down. Cork to win.
