19:45 Dundalk ? - ? St. Patricks
20:00 Shamrock Rovers ? - ? Limerick

Tought game for us, Dundalk the last team to beat us and our away record is (actually identical to theirs) pretty decent Won 7 Drew 0 Lost 1 F12 A 4.

Expecting a decent game, shame i wont make it

Then we have the break

GLaDOS

Huge, huge game between us and Shels. Both teams will be looking for the win, though a draw suits us much better. Been looking forward to it all week. Point against Sligo means nothing if we lose tomorrow.

NIMAN

Lot of vital games for teams heading into the break, ours away to Bray no different.

A win will keep us in touch at the top.

CSF

This could be horribly placed overconfidence, but I think the 11/4 on us is value.

dreamers75

if shels and bohs joined forces they would be 6th.

Shelhemians
Bohbourne
Northside knacks

If Pats and Rovers joined forces, how many cups would there be...I mean the ones, not won by Rovers?

Cups are over rated tbh.

Then what's the point in competing?

Huge game tonight. About two weeks ago, I'd have taken a draw but given the Sligo result last weekend, I'm slightly more expectant of a win tonight.

applehunter

Nothing to look forward to at the Cross tonight.

Going to be lashing rain and the team is a shambles.

They are a team of Guntars Silagailiss.

Pighead

Should be a cracker in Oriel tonight. Two teams who like to keep the ball on the ground. After Monday nights away win in Drogheda confidence is high in town and I reckon we may get over 2000 people through the gates this evening which would be great.

We beat Pats in their place in April but for some reason Killian Brennan didn't start that night. We were the better team in the first half but when Brennan came on in the second half they played much better. He seems to be in great form at the minute so hopefully Kenny has a plan to keep him quiet. A win and we're just six points behind Pats with a game in hand. Some turnaround in fairness from a year ago.

Gavin "shels"

Huge game for us tonight, to say I'm gicking it is an underestimation.

Robert Bayly is definetely out injured, is he?

Hope, he will make it somehow. I think, he improved quite a lot recently.

dfx-

Bohs can afford to lose tonight, Shels really can't.

The_Kew_Tour

Better stop raining in Cork if they want my money. Don't fancy getting wet before game even begins.

dfx-

If Rovers play like they did in Cork, they should have enough to sneak over the line after defending frantically late on again.

The floodgates over Dublin are open as well. Lovely day for a decent football match that is

The McDonnell effect kicks in early. Surely Bohs will come back.

I dread the second half, Bohs will have the wind on their side

super_furry

2-0. Bohs must be shocking!

They're ponying my accumulator too.

dreamers75

Brennan sent off for us.

Lawrence1895

Shels are quite lucky so far, I suppose...but we had some 'harsh' sending offs as well

Nasty challenge. Went in hard with studs up.

Conditions dreadful here. Wind has blown two of our corners straight out of play.

Lawrence1895

Derry 2:1 up as well at HT, that's a big favour for Shels, should it stay like that

CSF

This is wonderful.

Neither can I! Oriel Park was hopping this evening. Great night.

CSF

If that was a boxing match, the ref would have blown it up. So one-sided.

I never thought, it would be that easy

Jaysus, some very interesting results tonight.

12 points behind the leaders with a game in hand, the title race starts here :P

dundalkfc10

Anyone who didnt take Dundalk serious are beginning to look a bit foolish now.

A player or 2 added in July and no reason why we wont finish inside the Top 3

dreamers75

Pats fan fell in the stand, gone to drogheda hospital.

Hopefully hes ok.

ShamoBuc

City actually win a home match....happy with that!

"Summer" break has come at a bad time for Salthill Devon. Just starting to pick up results.

Rivalries aside. I wish him all the best and a speedy recovery

The_Kew_Tour

You won't find a better goal all season then the Goal at cross.

Goal of the year so far.

Miss of the season in there too. How did they not score I will never know.

dfx-

An entertaining enough first half with a very strong win in Rovers' favour which died down at halftime and was replaced by heavy rain. Limerick were very poor in the second half, created a couple of great chances before the goal.

Another good night for Derry...

Looking forward to seeing this goal. Heard it was a cracker alright.

Gutted with the result at Oriel. Not used to losing.

Get well soon Hano. Some things more important than football!!
