18' [0 - 1] B. Molloy (o.g.)
34' [1 - 1] P. Hutton (pen.)
55' K. Oman Sent Off
81' [2 - 1] Martyn

I reckon they will win league due to Cork not buying anyone to replace Doyle or even add to the squad.

Dont matter really once Shels dont win it and tonight it moved another step away.

Thats 6 in a row for Derry. Championship winning form any other year. Cork City are matching them all the way.

The games in the next 3 weeks will be crucial.

I knew 33/1 was too big at the start of the season.

Hard luck tonite to the Bohs

Derry and Cork really have impressed this season! Credit due to whoever wins it! Just hoping the other one drops off enough to allow Shels to nab 2nd place, or that they both meet in the FAI cup final, giving 3rd euro spot to the league.

Either way, crucial result tonight,fair play.

Seems McCourt was impressive on his debut

Big win for them.

Shouldnt that read, Derry are matching Cork City all the way. CCFC are, afterall, 4 points clear of Derry with a far far superior goal difference(arguably worth another point?).

HUGE result tonight for Derry. It effectively ends any lingering hopes Bohs may have had of sneaking into contention, and puts the pressure right on Cork City. Derry are now 10 clear of Shels who have 1 game in hand.

The next few weeks are massive. Cork Citys next 3 games are Waterford (H), Shels (H) and Derry (A). I reckon a 5-7 point haul, and CCFC are uncatchable. Of course, the game i the Brandywell is now a definite 6 pointer. I know Id be delighted with a draw. I wonder will Setanta or a.n other televise it? Will they fúck.

Its looking increasingly likely that its going to the last day of the season, a tale of two Citys - Cork Vs Derry, winner takes all.

i love when cork throw it away on the last day of the season makes it that much sweeter

any reviews on mccourt ?

applehunter

Different era Sarge.

Different league, different mentality, different Cork City FC.

20 Times 20 Times

applehunter

We're not as good as the masters.

Step forward Shels

While City have had a chance to win the league on the last day of the season 3 times in the last 13 years, only once have City truly blown it, and that was agaisnt Dundalk in 1992. The other 2 times, City were 3 points behind the lead team, with only an outside chance of catching ie, a City win, and a SPA/Shels loss. Hardly blowing it!

20 Times 20 Times

Mr Tom McNutly please step forward

richardson is a jinx to be honest my money is cork last day of the season again blowing it

We've only lost 5 league games this season and 4 of them were to Cork and Derry which pretty much sums up who the real contenders are this season.

Derry are doing great this season but I can't see anyone but Cork. 1 loss in 19 is phenomenal for this league.

Bateman

Our problem seems to be not being able to take a single point against the top 2. Having said that, I think that Cork are a far superior team to Derry, and Cork as easily the best team I've seen in the league so far this season. They'll win the league, Rain man certainly won't anyway. :mad:

Not wanting to start a war here, but how do you Bohs fans feel now about Kennys sacking?

Even at the time I thought it was harsh, ill informed and stupid. Now I think it was a knee jerk, ill informed, stupid move by the Bohs board.

Of course, that being said, Farrelly seems to be getting better as ye go along, and he is certainly a class player.

Slash/ED

I'm not a Bohs fan but Kenny had to go the way I saw it. Seemed to have completley lost the run of himself by the end, he got himself regrouped now and is showing his class but for his own sake I think he had to go from Bohs.

He had lost the players (not to suggest that Kenny's poor results weren't their fault too), the fans, and most importantly, he lost a crucial European home game. His Bohs team used to always sit on leads, and his substitutions were ill-timed and ill-chosen. Confidence-wiese, he is a disaster being interviewed, and has a petty, self-defensive personality. Other than that, I suppose his coaching ability and eye for talent is not in doubt.
