Derry vs Cork match of the night although its not on TV instead its Dundalk vs Harps on Eir but Radio Foyle and Drive105 should have commentary. Not an easy match to predict but I think Cork will just have that bit too much quality in attack for Derry to handle.

Two poor defending teams playing in Limerick tomorrow night. If we defend like we did against Bohs in the second half last week Ogbene and Tosi will have a field day. However Limerick's defending hasn't been great either so their should be some goals anyway.

Big match in the first division tonight also with UCD needing to win against Waterford to have any chance of promotion. Midlands Derby also taking place in Athlone tonight.

I definitely see our first loss of the campaign tonight. The run has to end at some stage and Derry away is rarely kind to CCFC.

Bohs Sligo should be a decent game, we need to batter one team at home and hopefully tonight is the night, put minnow thoughts about Relegation to bed :cool:

Two more signings for Wexford FC this week - Dean Kelly (no, not that one) and Mikey Byrne. Interesting to see how we look against Cabinteely tonight, but no high hopes at all.

The Bray centre backs will have sore heads tomorrow considering the amount of ball they were heading away from Galway's constant booting of the ball in to the air.

That was by far our best performance this year I think, kept the ball much much better than usual. Dean Kelly looked extremely good to me, very confident young player, and very calm. Good game management from us, Kieran Marty Waters and Evan Galvin were very quiet throughout.

You won, but were lucky.

We were the better team.

Maguire snuffed out tonight.

Yeah but did you hit the crossbar?

Could've been 10 goals for Rovers, Drogheda were ok for the opening 30 minutes but struggled afterwards. The poor left back will have an image of chasing Trevor Clarke in his sleep for the week.

Nice young goalscorers too. Doona, Bolger and Clarke (set up by Bolger) in the goals and O'Connor setting up old man (at 24) Shaw for the opener.

Nice gap between bohs and the relegation zone now. Still have to play Cork and Dundalk in this series so it's not that secure, but we're looking good.
