    Played badly last night bar a ten minute spell in each half. Heard Meenan was awarded man of the match which is bizarre. Gave the ball away so many times. Looking like a final day showdown on a Friday week. Was hoping it wouldn't come to this but I suppose it's a great result for the neutrals. Atmosphere should be special. Nervous already.

    Is Cork Dundalk on tv next week?

    Pretty comfortable at the back, Murphy with not much to do. 10 men twice in the league at Dundalk and two draws, that'll do. Late defeat in Cork a few weeks ago all the more important now.

    Hope Cork go on and do it now.

    Think we only need a few players to make a decent team tbh. The most obvious hole is a prolific striker. Even starting Kilduff in his current mood is a waste of time until he goes to Pats. Cregg was good again despite the cards.

    3012 there last night. Is that close to capacity or what? We are getting 600 tickets for the last game. I know that a lot of CCFC fans have already bought "home" tickets through the Dundalk website. Pretty silly of Dundalk to allow that to happen.

    3300 Seats in Oriel, so id imagine capacity is in around 5000

    20 quid into main stand for away supporters and hardly anybody bothers going to the kip. Hate that. That fine won't pay itself.

    What was the exuse for the FAI Cup and League Cup final when it was only 15euro into the stand and 10 into terrace?

    Dundalk don't sell any tickets through their website though??

    They've only started selling tickets for the Cork match today and they are only available from the ticket office in Oriel Park.

    Kick off for Bray-Dundalk is still 7.45, despite being on tv.

    This site was linked though the Dundalk site for weeks. I know that a good few CCFC fans bought tickets from it already.

    It gets very disjointed between Cregg/Brennan and the striker where a McCabe or Finn type should be getting on the ball on the edge of the box. The midfield battled very well with Shields and Towell as they had done in the cup and the league cup.

    Waters was a major plus last night too. I don't know why some Rovers fans don't rate him.

    Bit slack by Dundalk if that's the case but I'd imagine any Cork folk in the home end won't be long being escorted to the away section in any case.

    At least now its in both teams hands, Cork win their remaining 2 games & they're champions, Dundalk do the same they're champions, makes the final day game all the more exciting for both sets of fans, who wants to stroll to a title eh, no fun in that :-)

    Bray in 2010 was torture...:eek:

    Having done last day drama twice where we needed to win each time to wrap up a league in 2005 and 2011 I can say the excitement is the most amazing in the world. But for once I would love to have it all wrapped up with games to spare for s change. The last day madness is bad for the health.

    Not making excuses for anything just laughing at your abortive fleecing job ending up affecting your own supporters more than us.

    He's a bit light physically but he's a decent player. I think he can be a bit affected by negativity from the crowd too.

    Would like to see cork do it but Dundalk still have the advantage I think.

    Less Shamrock Rovers fans anywhere is always a good thing, at least no wakes were attacked by mobs of drunken low lifes this time.

    You can't possibly know that. I'll have it on the record that Shamrock Rovers fans were attacking wakes in every corner of Ireland on Monday night, hence why they weren't at the match.

    Or maybe your banter is just terrible.
