Rovers getting ever closer after last night. Shels a must win to give us hope of the league. A draw won't cut it for me. I know we have both of them at home later but a win would keep confidence up and momentum perhaps. Monday crucial.

The thing about it is, The Manager' is playing down the importance of Monday nights game.

Waterford and Sligo losing are good results for us. All the more reason to win Monday!!

The thing about it is, The Manager' is playing down the importance of Monday nights game.

I think this is the most important league game of our season.

If we lose it, I would think our chance of lifting the title will be gone.

Plus, I don't think a draw will be a great help.

The penalty decision awarded to St Pats should be investigated under betting irregularities.

That ref is surely up to something there?

That standard of officiating brings embarrassment on the league.

If players can get red cards for 'diving' then that ref deserves a 10 game ban.

Hopefully our game is not ruined by the ref. and the best team wins on the night.

I think Higgins would settle for a draw as it kicks the can down the road... but we really need a win.

Away games should allow players to be relatively free of supporters who readily criticise any mistakes allowing them the mental ease to give there all and produce a win they they are capable of.

Sligo manager got a red card for protesting the decision - couldnt make it up

[footman]

Shocking decision re that penalty call.
Only 3 points will suffice tonight. Anything less and league is over.

readily criticise any mistakes

You couldn’t possibly be talking about Derry City fans…….

Was the Team not Booed off away to Magpies and Sligo?

Davenport is that good there's 2 of him on bench

[Nige92]

Complete and utter stupidity from Todd. It just hasn't worked for the fella since he's come back. Looked fairly comfortable to that point too. Hanging on for a draw a good result now

Pity we didn't sign a couple of Centre Halves.

[eugenio]

As usual the fouling syndrome at Shels rears its head I hate to say but we are a fouling side this year ~hard to say but true. Sad sad sad

[haymaker89]

Todd is Finn harps level them and ucd. Unbelievable he was brought in even. Absolute turkey. He has cost us again.

[brandyball]

How's that Shelbourne team top of the league? They're there for the taking.

Everyone below them are more inconsistent than them and the league standard in 2024 is brutal.
