Richard Hillman

Im turning it off if that muppet with the loudspeaker doesnt quieten down over the next few mins.

If there's anyone at the ground, please take that loudhailer and shove it up the owner's a***. It's as annoying as the vuvuzela, which is saying something.

Derry City assistant manager, Peter Hutton, has confirmed that midfielder, Barry McNamee will miss the club’s SSE Airtricity League of Ireland Premier Division opener against Shamrock Rovers later today.
McNamee strained his ligaments while at home during the week and whilst the injury is not serious, Hutton, said it would not be wise to risk such an important player on the first day of the season.

Shams very poor so far.

Soccer Republic is on qt 11:05. Why o why???
No one will watch it. Its too late on a monday night. They'll probably get more viewers on the rte player.

SantryRed

Terrible goal for a terrible game.

GLaDOS

Almost a great assist for the Derry defender

Did you ever go to Frankfurt? Their Kapo is much more annoying :eek:

Can't see Rovers challenging this year anyway.

I think it's dead set for a 0-0 or especially 1-1 draw.

Awful game, should've finished 0-0, finished 1-1.

Bayly starting ahead of McPhail for Rovers, interesting

That'll be the way for a while. McPhail already has an English season in his legs. He wouldn't last a LOI season on top of that. He'll have to be used sparingly. Same as Ronan Finn. He spent 4 weeks at Burnley while carrying an injury. He'll be used sparingly for a while also. Both of those could make a big difference. When Shepperd is fully fit, I expect him to take Zayed's place.

I'll be home for a game or two at the end of the season.

12,376 km each way. I'll be impressed if you can beat that!

anncoates

The team will be a lot better with Madden, mcguinness, Shep, Finn and mcphail starting and fit.

Ryan Brennan a good player and Luke Byrne will come on well, I think.

At least we scored late when playing poorly, something that evaded us last year.

Lucan Bohs

Another trip out to The Bowl tonight! Great :P

NIMAN

Well our 1st game was a poor enough spectacle, but happy enough with a point away to Rovers on the opening day. Always gutting to lose the 3pts in injury time, but a draw a fair enough result.

Mushy

Happy with a point, its nice not to be bottom. In Matthew's We Trust!

Captain Havoc

I've had a busy week of driving myself this week, Ireland v Montenegro U-21 and Ireland v Serbia on Wednesday, Kilkenny v Galway and Rovers v Derry yesterday and now I'm at Pats v Ballinamallard.

Cork 4-0 over Limerick.

Elding went off injured. Does not look too bad. Might miss weekend but hopefully nothing serious.

A decent enough performance and the score was justified.

If you're a Limerick fan I be worried about yer CB pairing tonight. Awful. 3 crosses resulted in 3 Cork goals score by maybe smallest 2 men on the field. Easily have contributed to Cork scoring another couple.

1,009 was att at Cross.

dreamers75

5-0 easy enough, 1st win competition in 4 years or so.

Pats/Sligo
Dundalk /Rovers

Semi draw

5-2 win after extra time. Say it was a lovely returns for Matthews.

If he's taking a moral victory from beating our under 19s, he is..............exactly the kind of person i expected!!!

Really thought we were gonna win it in the last 20 of normal time. Going down to 10 through injury killed us
