not entirely confident about tonight's game to be honest. if you offered me a deflected goal in second half injury time off denis behan's arse to win one nil i'd snap your hand off. i dont care how we play tonight as long as we get all three points/

Yiz'll beat Derry no problem, they're on a slippery slope back to mid-table mediocrity. They missed the bus when they appointed Fenlon.

Pats lose at home. Two losses in a row.

That bubble is well and truly burst.

redzerdrog

drogs only draw with longford fcukin **** if ya want to win thw league you have to beat teams like longford at home.

damian lynch is terrible and paul keegan is terrible any time either one got the ball it ended up in the longfords keepers hands they just hoofed it up every time.

Roar

annoyed we couldnt get all three points last night. that being said, i thought we played some wonderful football, first half especially, and it was a 100% improvement from tuesday's game in tolka..

2-1 sligo :eek:

Guillem be on tv later asking if anyone actually wants to win it, only Rovers won this week but sadly wont be able to compete with the others additions in the next few weeks.

Cork Healy Farrelly + few quid from gamble and roy sales.
Bohs have to get rid but will sign someone prolly a left winger.
Pats jaysus everyone we signing everyone!!!!! most likly jason Byrne, Barry Quinn and Owen Morrison.
Derry a keeper and a manager.
Drogs Robbie corner flag loving doyle 7 strikers might be enough.
Rovers????? No money to spend but Scully gets the best out of players and i reckon they be short with 1 injury.

At this stage still think its Drogs title to lose and the longer we stay on top the less we will fall, top 4 and SSC has and will do me for this season. But hey Top of the league at the break and top scorers MUHAHAHHAHA tekkit !!11!!!!!

Yet more ineptitude from officialdom last night in Athlone.

Penalty for Athlone, that was borderline to say the least. Levine barges through after our keeper fails to collect a cross, then drops like a sack of spuds and the ref gives a penalty I thought if the keeper drops a catch when surrounded by opposition players it's usually a free out?

Then the ref loses control completely.

An off the ball incident involving Levine was brought to the attention of the ref by the linesperson, and Levine goes, straight red. Right after it the Athlone player with the lovely highlights in his hair, McTiernan, goes down off the ball. He was never touched and it was a complete attempt to get our player sent off. Ref gives a fúcking drop ball? McTiernan should have been booked tbh. If I say any more about this 'player' I'll be banned.

Then with five minutes to go Glenn Lacey, having been booked for charging the Athlone 'keeper, then tries to kill one of the Athlone players with a nice two footed tackle that threw the Athlone player up in the air. Another straight red.

Then the farce of the night. Alan Murphy, our captain for the night, was giving the ref verbals after our sending off, ref told him to shut it, and off he ran, back to the middle of the pitch. Meanwhile the ref is still trying to calm things down at the incident of the ref card, and starts running backwards, bumps into Murphy, then red cards him, because the ref wasn't looking where he was going.:eek: Never seen anything like it.

Fair play to Athlone on the win, we never looked like scoring, but this is the second time in a poxy week that we've been ridden rock solid by the Anti-Dublin bias in the First Division. I'm serious.

By the way - did anyone else get that 'FAI Fan Survey' at any other games this weekend?

Noel Mooney went handing them around the ground in Athlone, just before it all kicked off with our red cards. I 'lost' mine on the pitch, but I wanted to fill it in.

applehunter

Yes, Mooney was handing them out at the Rovers Cork game on Tuesday. Filled it out and gave it to a guy after the match. Looked like he had good few filled in collected.

Said that "fans displays" should be allowed if organised properly and that toilet facilities need to improve 500%.

Töpher

I had to laugh at that, because I would have cried otherwise! Couldn't believe the Murphy sending off, was one of the most shocking things I've ever seen from an official! It was like driving with your eyes closed and blaming the driver you crashed into! Shocking!

Bateman

I filled out one of the surveys last week, wonder what good it will do though. I mean, if they need the fans to tell them where they're going wrong...
