Yeah he looked very good. He tired towards the end but he's still probably working on his fitness having come back from injury. Him and Pender in the team offer us so much more at the back than their replacements. Two huge players for us.

The top 5 currently we cannot compete with financially. They seem to be able to offer their youth players a better contract, a longer contract etc. The sooner Dayer is redeveloped and we can start doing that the better. The time in between in Tolka will be torturous. Hopefully it all happens sooner rather than alter. Plan is to be there for 2022 season I believe.

BOHtox · 21-07-2018 6:56pm

Dano Kelly looks very good. He's very direct and a very attacking right mid. With the likes of Grant and Kelly you'd see no reason to keep Kavanagh next year, get him of the wage bill and try keep a few lads like Leahy and a few others. Kelly looks very slight though. You'd imagine he never had a proper strength and conditioning program which I'm sure he'll get here over the close season.

Wonder did Stokes just have a falling out with Long? He's a good player but never really brought his best. Never happy with beating a player once he has to beat him twice or three times and is a bit wasteful.

I know that was only Bray last night and we played them at a good time but we still looked good. A solid performance by all. You can see the pitch is a lot better with the rain we got the last few days and a better pitch is more conducive to the way we play ball.

artanevilla · 21-07-2018 10:05pm

I think Stokes is a bit of a big time Charlie, home from England thinking he's the shît. He's shown only glimpses of what he's capable of only.

Huge result last night.

BOHtox · 30-07-2018 2:22pm

Few bits to note:

JR Wilson went to Shels, Watts' loan ended, Moore went to Shels and Gannon was released. Obviously Watts has great potential but don't think Moore and Gannon are big losses at all. Can't fault their effort though. Rob Manley went to Drogheda too.

Kelly comes in from Bray and Masterson from Hyde or Drogheda or something.

Good win tonight. Played a bit better in the second half, things started working for us. Balls found feet, runs were read a bit better etc. Good to see Stokes and Grant getting a run out. Stokes is different class on his day and we missed him the last few weeks, as long as he gives a shít. Took a good penalty and sprayed a few good passes. A number 10 playing off Dinny is possibly his best position too. Anyway a few good selection headaches for Keith Long next week too.

Also Kavanagh left the club to join Shels. Best of luck to him and Karl. Both seem like top guys and the players and team mates seem full of praise for them and they seem to just be at the stage where they want first team football and nobody can hold that against them. But with Kelly, Grant, Stokes and Devanney they have youth on their side and they all look promising

Great win last night. Hope to God we can nail a few of these lads on two year deals

GLaDOS · 15-09-2018 11:38pm

Dan Kelly in particular. Reminds me of Mclean; quick, direct and an eye for goal.

BOHtox · 16-09-2018 2:15pm

Fair. I remember seeing McLean play for Derry against us and he had Heary on toast. Comparisons definitely to Kelly. Leahy as well would be a must as well if we could pick two. Long and Croly are musts as well. Just most of the team really.

artanevilla · 17-09-2018 3:28pm

I think having a good rest in between games has been a huge factor in the upturn. It was very difficult early on when there seemed to be a match every three days.

So that means you'll struggle against us in Inchicore on Saturday after the Derry match on Wednesday?

I would be worried if we were playing a decent team but we should be okay.

Can't decide whether thats a dig at Derry or Pats!

Or maybe both?

artanevilla · 18-09-2018 12:37pm

Both sure, why not? I guarantee we will now heavily lose both games.

NIMAN · 18-09-2018 2:36pm

To be honest, I think we are the only team to take the league cup seriously.
Obviously Cobh wanted to win on Sunday too, but they were poor. We should have played at a much higher tempo and finished them off.

As for tomorrow night, you have got to be big favourites going into this one. You have form, you beat us easily a couple of weeks ago in the league and we have been in freefall in recent months. Our defence is shocking, and we have next to no chance of keeping a clean sheet.

Omackeral · 18-09-2018 3:11pm

Do you know Ger Doherty by any chance? If you do, will you tell him he's a wanker for me? He's a horrible fcuker. Thanks. Everyone else is alright though.

I would have played a bit of ball with Ger about 20 years ago. Him and his bro.
He would have been a teenager then, and do you know we only knew he was a goalie when he signed for TNS, never once did he do nets for us in our twice weekly astro game!

But he is a very skilful outfield player, that I can vouch for.

Come back to me when he's banging in penalties in the Showgrounds :pac:

BOHtox · 23-09-2018 1:40pm

I'm sure Keith Long's team talk last night is that "There's places up for grabs here" with a good run in and a cup semi final on the cards. Might only mean a place on the bench and a chance to make an impact but there's that chance to come on and make an impact.

Some very impressive performances and big futures ahead of a lot of those players. The 10 role suits stokes a bit more than wide left or the number 9 role. Playing off Ali Regbha, who was phenomenal, suited him. Spreading it left and right too.

Andy Lyons very good, Cornwall a very good leader for such a young man. McCourt was very good. Long must be quite confident when he turns around looking at his bench and thinking he needs an impact. Lots of guys who can step up, depth we haven't seen since 08.

Omackeral · 24-09-2018 2:07pm

All online tickets for Bohemians vs Cork City for home fans are SOLD OUT this afternoon. The phenomenal run of form must be a major a factor in this. Great times as of late. She wore, she wore....

artanevilla · 24-09-2018 3:43pm

Should be some atmosphere, really looking forward to it. Absolutely nothing to fear from the opposition either. I just hope nerves or completency don’t start to seep in.

BOHtox · 24-09-2018 5:45pm

SHE WORE...

BOHtox · 02-10-2018 10:17pm

Can't help but feel hard done by after that. Apparently we were given 500 tickets. No doubt they'll be sold out.

Interesting to see what team he plays on friday. Casey and Kelly suspended for Monday so both of them will play. Stokes in for Ward. I reckon we could see a similar team that played Pats given the significance of the game on Monday. Don't want to be risking injuries when we already have two suspensions.

McCabe

Buckley Casey Byrne Leahy

Brennan McCourt

Kelly Stokes Devanney

Masterson

Something to that effect? Only an hour for Leahy and Devanney. RB is less taxing than CM for Bucko. Give Pender a rest with his niggle and age taken in to account.

SHE WORE

Note to mods, this is a legal stream.

No stream in the end. 2-1, still in the tie.

Great result. Look for Oct 24th now.

BOHtox · 04-10-2018 6:11pm

Our initial 500 was sold out today and another 100 coming tomorrow, most of which is already reserved.

600 on a monday is big numbers. Make it noisey and get behind the lads and it will feel like a home game. Half day booked from work... Cannot wait!

asteroids over berlin · 11-10-2018 7:10pm

new stadium plans look very impressive but would of liked a 10000 seater, i think they will all live to regret that decision, sorry to see the old ground go but it's in bad shape thede days!

Didn't like the way the have a new stadium for Shelboure and Bohs in the video, obviously should be Bohs and Shels

They place will be rocking when Rovers come in. It's going to feel soulless for everyone else. I'd like it to be bigger but what's the point when we can't fill 1 stand for 8 of the teams we play against in it.

Does look amazing though.

Roll on Hampden Park draw tomorrow at 1pm

Omackeral · 15-10-2018 11:49am

Full highlights of the game vs Sutton from their official channel. The commentator seems to love the architecture around Dublin judging by the first few minutes. Also you see our top boys taking the shed like the good old days around the 11:30 mark :P

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_pSlia5U2Y

GLaDOS · 15-10-2018 12:05pm

Pretty selective highlights! You'd have thought we never attacked going by that.

artanevilla · 15-10-2018 3:25pm

Let them have their highlights.

BOHtox · 15-10-2018 8:23pm

So we marched day and night
by the big cooling tower
they had the highlights but
we had Ross County

Now do Freed from Desire

The Bohs ain't got no money...

artanevilla · 16-10-2018 10:31am

So we'll march day and night,
Under Phibsboro Tower,
We had Dan Grant,
But they had the highlights?

Omackeral · 16-10-2018 1:15pm

So it's Scottish Third Tier outfit (League 1) East Fife at home in the next round of the IRN-BRU cup. Tie set for November 17th but subject to change

GLaDOS · 16-10-2018 1:20pm

Says on facebook we've requested to more the tie forward, presumably so we still have some players under contract.

artanevilla · 16-10-2018 2:06pm

The only players that will be under contract on that date are Dinny and Supps.

Two heroes that will beat Fife on their own!!!

artanevilla · 16-10-2018 3:32pm

Can we request that the game be brought forward straight to penos?

major bill · 16-10-2018 5:19pm

Bit cheeky of the club to ask for this game to be brought forward, we knew the potential issues around contracts before we entered, that said so should the SPFL.

Great reading over on the Scottish football forum pieandbovril of the East Fife fans in meltdown over this potential fixture move :pac:

artanevilla · 16-10-2018 6:09pm

Sure all the club can do is ask, we have to do what's in our best interests. If it's in East Fife's best interests to say no then so be it.

BOHtox · 16-10-2018 6:54pm

East fife four forfar five
