    Need to chip away at the gap before we play Dundalk.
    Derry away Friday would love a cup final

    Should have done that yesterday, league is gone. Secure second, win the cup is the very best we can hope for this season.

    Yup. The league was almost gone before that, but had we won and closed the gap to six, it may have been possible, especially considering Dundalk have to play the apparent world beaters Limerick away. The way Limerick are playing, you couldn't rule them out of taking points off them. (Yes, I do realise that that is still a rather large straw being clutched!) :pac:

    Sadly though, when you're so far behind, you just can't drop points against teams like Bray and expect to maintain a title challenge. Just be grateful that nobody gained any ground on us either I suppose.

    The league was gone when we lost to Limerick at the Cross.

    Still though, finishing second for the second year in a row and securing European football again would still represent an excellent season.

    Don't want to get too excited about a cup run though as I don't want to jinx it.... :o

    Just need to focus on the Derry game Friday, hope a good few make the trip up, going to be a tricky game as Derry really seem to topple teams in the cup. A draw would be a decent result in this game can't see us losing

    That was one of the best goals ever scored in Turners Cross. Its tough being a football fan at times, lots of downs compared to the ups, but that goal tonight reminds us all why we do it. What a beautiful game.

    What a goal.

    Was worth the fee alone. 3rd goal was nice move and finish too.

    Less than 1,200 at the match really disappointing turn out. Never understood why people just don't want to watch the cup matches especially when its a all prem clash for a place in the semi's

    Given a child ticket for my €15 at the hut.

    Wouldn't trust the attendance figure at all.

    Classic Cup fiddling.

    If anyone missed it, our allocation for the Cup semi-final is going on sale this week from the club shop.

    Wednesday: Club members
    Thursday: Club members and ST holders
    Friday: Club members and ST holders (until 2 pm)
    Friday night: General sale (from 6.10 at the Derry match)

    Open from 11am and extended hours until 7pm Wednesday and Thursday.

    Good to see the members, ST holders and match-going fans being looked after first. Though we mightn't sell out, it's still a bit of peace of mind to get the ticket early. Trophy deciders aside, it'll probably be our biggest away crowd since Limerick in 2010 or Bohs in 2007.

    Derry got off to a winning start under their new manager. A tight game I'd imagine but approached with the right mentality City should win. Just hope we don't pick up any injuries ahead of the cup semi the following week.

    It should be as routine as the victory against Limerick a few weeks ago.

    I had a buddy saying over the weekend that all we need is Dundalk to lose to Limerick and Shamrock Rovers before coming down here to have a chance. I genuinely love that kind of optimism but its lost on me after hearbreak after heartbreak.

    I'm not overly bothered about the league now - I just hope we don't drop to 3rd and hope we win a cup.

    All we can do is win our games. Dundalk have Lims away which will be a tough game for us we just need the 3 points. And then rool on Bray can't wait
