looking forward to our clash with drogs, we owe them big time following the setanta cup final.. should hopefully be a big crowd and a good atmosphere.. fancy us to win by the odd goal...

Fitzo

on my way up to see the Rovers, hammer Bohs...2-1!

Töpher

2-1 only? Don't be so pessimistic, Bohs are muck! 3-0 to the Sligo! Can't believe you figured they'd actually score!! lol

Bray - Waterford:
Scoreless or low-scoring draw. Neither team seemed able to find the back of the net before the break, but the summer sun may have done wonders for someone!

Cork - Drogheda:
Hoping for a draw, that'd be the best result here I think. Or Drogs to take 3 points, as I figure they'll lose more steam than Cark over the rest of the season.

Derry - Dublin:
Is there even any point thinking about this? 3 points to Derry, clearly! Although, I would hope that Seerys men can steal something here!

Pats - UCD:
Pats are in great from this season, hard to look past them!

Shelbourne - FK Vetra Vilinus:
1-0 up, and an away goal at that. I fancy us to stuff them here, well, hope! Gonna go with 3-0, giving a fairly respectable 4-0agg result. As the travelling fans were singing in Lithuania: "We are the winners..., of intertoto". Genius!!

KdjaCL

Draw Away Home (but want a draw) home and hopefully home.


Took us 6 odd years to beat them out there but they still remain a bogey team fos us.


But if a certain announcement is made either in Press or to Pats fans tomorrow about the future of the club i can see the fans in a fairly happy mood.

Even the locals were laughing at that.

Shels to progress comfortably.

For us there was no real break.

I initially supported the break, but it was painful, apart from the fact that it didn't match the WC period.
Anyway, a win tonight for us will be a bonus. It'd be nice to see our lot up for it at least.

Pats 0 - UCD 0

Bohemians 0-2 Sligo Rovers
Bray Wanderers 3-1 Waterford
Cork City 1-0 Drogheda United
Derry City 3-0 Dublin City
St. Patricks Athletic 0-0 UCD

Big wins for Village, Bray and Derry still looking very solid.

Long overdue P45 for Farrelly on Monday morning???

KdjaCL

Despite dominating for most of the
game, St Patrick's had to settle for a
draw in this entertaining Dublin derby.

They were always on top, with Trevor
Molloy, Mark Rutherford and Paul Keegan
all going close in the opening stages.

The best of the chances was a free kick
on 10 minutes from Molloy which cleared
the UCD wall but was just too high and
flew over the bar.

Molloy then had a shot cleared off the
line by Conor Kenna on 30 minutes.
Conor Sammon nearly opened UCD's
account on 50 minutes having collected
a Pat McWalter ball but turned his
effort around the post.

Thats a complete lie, it was as entertaining as syphilis.


Actually the only entertaining thing in the whole game was this. (UCD stuck for players???)

I really do hate playing UCD and can only seek solace in the fact they will do that to everyone.

Damn! Sligo beat the Gypos. I was hoping for a draw that would ensure Farrelly keeps his job for at least another month.

tdv

Well done Bray, where ****e but atleast where trying

gimmick

Good and comfortable win over Drogs for City to go back top of the league. The only area Drogs are strong is in defence, other than that, they are absolutely appalling. Rico called Doolins bluff yesterday calling them a team of hackers who cant play football. Drogs proceeded to try to play football, and couldn't.

Im only surprised City didnt win by more.

You think he won't?

gimmick

Bohs cannot afford to sack Farrelly i would have thought given the salary he is supposedly taking. Something seems to be rotten at the core of that dressing room, as I cannot remember Bohs being this poor for about 10 years.

On another note, last night Joe Gamble showed again why he is without doubt the best central midfielder in the country. He covered every square inch of the pitch, helped the defence, joined in the attack, bollocked players for not doing their part. Steve Staunton should give him a long hard look, and start him against Holland in August. He is exactly the type of midfielder the national team is missing. If it dont work out, then its only a friendly.

Also, step forward Ian Stokes, who once again showed the most abysmal refereeing possible. The man simply doesnt know what he was doing, and did his best to get Drogs level last night. City had a goal ruled offside which was never, booked City players for which Drogs players were getting away with, and 4 added minutes became 6. Had he awarded Drogs a penalty last night, I have no doubt in my mind but Rico would have killed him.

I don't know. That was a pretty calamtious result even by his standards.

I doubt if anyone expected Bohs to win last night. As I said before the game, a win would be a bonus. And, as has been pointed out, the club cannot afford to ditch the manager.

How long is Farrellys contract?

Not certain OTOMH, but I think it's been said he has this season and next left.

gimmick

Well, it was a 3 year deal wasn't it? So this would be the last one?

johnos

Someone on Gypsies Web said it has a year and a half to go, which is why we can't afford to pay him off and part as friends. Just as well this year probably (hopefully) has no relegation based on points!

ronbyrne2005

i think we should give him rest of the season at least,look at stephen kenny's performance since leaving us.
