Waterford FC Thread

Big win for Drogheda today.. Makes the two games this week massive.. We need to get something from those games or we're in serious trouble.. Running out of games now, we need to grind out a few wins in the next week or two

Super second half performance to turn that game around, a massive 3 points for us and we are out of the play off position for now. Huge games coming up, dundalk away Friday night will be tough, then Derry at the rsc this day next week.

Dare I say it, if St Pats win the FAI Cup, that 4th place in the league becomes a Euro spot 🙃. Win against Dundalk and Derry and then maybe ...

Ye, unlucky not to get a point near the end.. Junior had a great chance, but in fairness only for paul Martin we could have been well beaten

Strange one this.. It will be dark after 7..Thought the floodlights aren't working??

How dare you point out such an obvious flaw with the average Irish soccer fan!

The absolute cheek of you to speak the truth!! It has no place here sir!

finished scoreless between harps and Drogheda, so we are back in play off spot for the moment. Another massive game tomorrow night for us , need the 3 points

Absolute sickener to concede in injury time ... defend the corner and we have a vital win. Need to pick themselves up for Friday night but they will be gutted not to have held on this evening. 2-2 it finished.

That was a tough one.. Jesus, how many times have we conceded from corners and set pieces all season.. We're paying for our small squad now.. Players are wrecked.. Very hard to lift it again for Friday.. Then again, the way this leaugevis going.. It could be the point to get us over the line come the end of the season.. #BLUES

All three of the teams Waterford play in their final fixtures have nothing to play for in terms of league positions.

They'll be under a fair bit of pressure against Rovers on Friday night with the small squad, but at least their fate is in their own hands. Win the three games and they definitely stay up - simple as that.

Unpredictable type games coming, hard to know what shape Rovers will be in, easily the best team in the league right now but will they be too bothered? Or they could come down nice and relaxed with a few lads looking to impress the manager, in which case could be very difficult.

either way it's in our own hands now to do enough to avoid the play off. Massive games for the club the next few weeks.

Dundalk won the Louth Derby last nite, pushing Drogheda right into the relegation battle..

Huge game for us tonight, hopefully we'll start getting a rub of the green for our remaining games, starting tonight.. We could have up on 4,000 at tonight's game.. Rovers have always been our biggest rivals, and always bring a great away crowd, should add to the atmosphere..

Good luck to Marc and the lads tonight #BLUEARMY 💙⚽

Beaten 3-1 after taking an early lead and I have just seen Marc Birchams comments about the standard of defending from set pieces, he’s 100% correct, you could see it coming long before the first goal, Bircham is a clever manager, and speaks a lot of truth, I liked when he gestured to the crowd in the main stand during the suspension for the fireworks. Hopefully the blues will pick up enough points to avoid the playoff, but the 7-0 loss to drogheda and the walkover conceded to Sligo is coming back to haunt them, they have been very good over the past 4-5 months but started from a very low ebb, it’s the first time the manager has sounded off in public about the players, but I’m not too surprised, as he doesn’t seem the type to put up with shoddiness, and they were tonight, even at a goal up, defended too deep, and didn’t keep possession as well as they could have
