Re: Dundalk FC . V Pats .
With only just over one series left, you feel the next three games are as critical as they can be for our European hopes through the league.
The way Pats have also turned it around since sacking Clancy, you'd imagine they are looking to compete for the championship too... but losing tonight they would be level on points with us.
McCourt and Elliot looked good coming on versus Drogheda. Wouldn't be surprised if they started. Be mad to go only two in the middle tonight, felt it hurt us in the last game. Sloggett - Doyle - Malley in the middle if they are all fit would be good, with hopefully putting in a massive performance in there.

Huge game tonite. Need to win this. Both teams on form although we are nicking games where we don't deserve to.

Sounding like a broken record but again we got out of jail. Very poor first half. Couldn't put two passes together. Gave stupid ball away non stop. Thought there was a foul on mccourt for their goal. Malley should have buried his header on ht. Tulloch should have been pulled at ht but my god how was he given a second yellow. Pats man clearly all over him and pulled him back.

Re: Dundalk FC . V Pats .
Very lucky tonite .actually wanted McCourt to replace Leahy ,but how wrong was I ,thought he was shocking .Annesley not great .doesn’t look great wen you are chasing a game and you have too replace 2 defenders with defenders .tulluch hasn’t really done enough ,few sparks during the season but nothing special .Kelly a differant animal when coming off the bench .
On a plus note ,Archie Davies is some player

Re: Dundalk FC . V Pats .
Once again a fairly mediocre first half, we never got going, Pats weren't much better. Rode out luck for 5-10 mins after the red then we were superb for the last 30 and should have won with 10. Excellent shift from Elliott, Malley and Muller did a lot to redeem themselves, Sloggett showed why we've missed him. Excellent use of subs for once, with Muller shoring up a defence where Annesley was struggling, Leahy sorting out the issue McCourt was having with Mulraney, Elliott and Kelly doing what was required to haul us into it.
Obviously it's not good to keep falling behind, but we've picked up 10 points in 4 games from losing positions. Some balls.
Once again a shambles from the ref team. The linesman on the Pats side really didn't have a clue. Very frustrating for Tullach to see red while being pulled back and them punched, but we got away with something very similar in Inchicore!

For me Kelly should be starting every week. I'd also start with Elliott too. I like Ryan but he's still a tad lightweight and easily muscled off the ball.

I think Kelly coming off the bench has a bigger impact .Started against drogheda for example .he was shocking ,should of being taken off before half time.
