who failed on the weekly thread?

Killian missed a peno and scored a header! Not happy with our lack of shots for all the ball we have.

Missed the peno out of guilt I'd say. That dive in the box was comical. Sean Thornton was unreal all evening in midfield for Drogs. Unlucky to be on the losing side.

Fantasy stuff like, but if Dundalk qualified for the Champions League
€12.8m guaranteed flat payment from UEFA
As part of BT's market share they could net another €10m
Gate receipts

What would ye Dundalk fans want done with the money if it happened?

Rosenborg II

I just imagine the Dundalk players coming out of the tunnel wearing fur coats and carrying pimp canes.

Heading to Buckley Park tonight for the first time in almost 10 years, woop, woop.

Youths 2-3 Bray tonight in a friendly at Ferrycarrig Park. Useful workout, but never a great spectacle when each team make around 6 or 7 subs each. Really excellent goal from Danny Furlong being the highlight

Onwubiko looked deadly too I think, good goal.

A Galway United XI beat some children from Liverpool 1-0 today in front of 2200 very wet people.

Plot twist: it didn't rain all day.

Finished 2-2 at Buckley Park between a Billy Walsh selection and an Alfie Hale selection. Former players and hurlers showed up. Billy Walsh had his brothers Ollie (ex Bohs) and Mickey (hurling keeper), Dave Mulcahy, Liam Simpson (hurler), Jim Nugent, Brian McEvoy (hurler), Brian Jordon, Conor Best, Mark and Niall Andrews and Peter Murtagh (I know I've forgotten some). Who I remember from Alfie Hale's XI are Moc Ried, Paul Devereux, David Breen, Rocky Maher, Andy Comerford (hurler), Squeeler Walsh, Paul Cashin, Mickey Comerford and Paschal Keane. The goals were scored by Niall Andrews (a cracker which I missed because I was giving someone my email) and a Billy Walsh peno, for Alfie Hale's team, Mickey Comerford and Squeeler.

Dave Mul was running the show despite not looking like he ever got out of first gear, Moc Reid was deadly, he was slow back in the day and I'd say he hasn't got any slower. There wasn't much of a crowd there, which I don't know whether it was down to bad publicity or not much of an appetite in Kilkenny for soccer. I didn't see many of the former supporters there.

Seemingly, if Dundalk get knocked out of the Champions League during the week, the match against Cork City at Oriel Park will be next Sunday at 6 and live on RTÉ. If they go through against BATE, it'll be postponed for another weekday as Dundalk would be playing the 3rd round the following week. With the Pats game postponed as well, we could really do without having these two and Rovers in midweek matches in August.

dundalkfc10 · 19-07-2015 8:19pm

If we beat Bate our league tie's V Bray and Longford and League Cup semi V Galway will be off

The FAI's stance on helping out clubs in Europe is bizarre. I know they want them to progress as far as possible, but not all these clubs are amateur or semi pro, Dundalk are full time professionals and can easily deal with 3 games in 7 days. Strange policy.

I would prefer not to risk injury.

Sligo released both warren and Folan, would have thought there was worse than them

Getting rid of the nastys by any chance??

hard to know, folan had a bad rep but cant say i heard of him stepping out of line and he played well for us

warren i know nothing about, only he looked decent enough,

JoeyJJ · 21-07-2015 5:06pm

Folan left for personal reasons, think his Dad isn't well. However committee would want to tell the fans their strategy and quick.

Assume you mean Wearen?

He's been linked back to Bohs, would be happy to have him.

We have a strategy?

Would have preferred to keep Folan and get rid of Peers. Folan came with a bad reputation but I never heard of him causing any bother at all.

monkey9 · 21-07-2015 7:04pm

I wouldn't mind Pat's signing Wearen up tbh. I think he's a very good player.

pmasterson95 · 21-07-2015 7:16pm

I do hope Galway would be interested in Folan if he wants to head back home to his Da. Fat chance of that happening.

Agreed, peers and keane have been great servants but seem to be causing friction behind the scenes,

Looks like Patrick Nzuzi (ex-Limerick) is playing against Motherwell tonight. Trial I guess. Keane might be leaving as well?

JoeyJJ · 21-07-2015 9:30pm

Peers very defensive on a srambanter thread earlier when a fan said he had issues and wouldn't play

Don't think we can afford to lose Keane. He can play centre back and we don't have any of those.

Captain Havoc · 22-07-2015 1:39am

I have been moaning for years about my teammates missing on some ****ty night in January when Arsenal or whoever are on the box in champions league. Tonight I will be doing the same to watch Dundalk on the box, erm, I mean to rest that dodgy foot.

I'm sure Dunne is interested in a lot of people, but the money isn't there.
