[Dublin_Hibee]

and a great start for Bohs getting 3 points from a tricky tie in Galway.

Pats visiting Dalymount next week, another 3 points for Bohs!!

[U What?]

Now that GOD is back at the helm of the good ship Derry City....

We too had a good win....two nil up UCD brough it back to 2-2, Then we stole it with2 mins left on the clock.....

A win is a win is a win....

P.S. Rovers 1 up against the Dogs murphy after 3mins

Looks to be a good crowd as well..

Has any one seen the article in the independant> Thoughts??

$3250 for the top earner before bonuses.......Byrne???

[U What?]

Forgot to add that we've a tough game next week against the Sheepshaggers of Ballybofey...(although I was glad to see them get a good win last night) But don't tell any Harps fans I said that

[Dublin_Hibee]

Has any one seen the article in the independant> Thoughts??

that's incredible the top earner is getting that money, that's probably as much as the top earner at Hibs!
can't see it being sustainable to be honest, look what happened to Shels when they tried to spend big on wages

[nabser]

Christ the top earner probably jason byrne is on about the same as waterford are run on.It is good to see investment in the league and i hope it continues wish i could find waterfords version of mick wallace.

Yeah, I could picture you in that pink away jersey alright

[nabser]

even i wouldnt wear that i think mick wallace got too carried away with his love of juventus,although credit to him for putting in the money they have an excellent set up and talking to one of the waterford players he told me after the game they went into the lounge and there was loads of food laid on for them freshly cooked by the chefs wexford have there on a game night.

Another win for the Saints tonight :YAYYY::YAYYY::YAYYY::YAYYY:

From what I heard on the radio we were "by far the better team" too (Eoin Hand)


Amazing goal too from Keith Fahey (below). Saints finished game with 9 men, Bohs with 10

[Mixxxu]

Have you seen the goal Mark? An absolute peach from 30 yards into the roof of the net.Memories of McFadden in Paris.Bohs could have played all night and they wouldn't have scored.

[Dublin_Hibee]

Bohs could have played all night and they wouldn't have scored.

I think that somes up Bohs performance, was a poor performance and Pats deserved to win it.

Great strike from Fahey but Murphy shouldn't of been getting beat from 30 yards.

[Egan Number 6]

Was a great result for the saints all right. Cracking goal from Fats, I reckon nearly 40 yards. Shame about being stuck over in the shitty uncovered end. No burdocks food. Went to the food van. "What do you have I asked? Burger. Anything else? No, just burger" But what the hell. Was a great atmosphere and we made a hell of a noise. Great determination from the lads to hold out with 9 men.

[Rep of Ireland Hibee]

Keith Fahey's goal against Bohs. What a strike

Didn't realise that Gary Dempsey had signed for Pats!

That's a hard one to swallow, couldn't stand him at Dunfermline or Aberdeen, hope he's good for the Pats though
