The battle to avoid the drop is certainly hotting up after tonight`s results. Limerick are now on a roll, though whether they`ve left it too late remains to be seen. They`re certainly going to cause mayhem to the top half of the league if they keep up this momentum. Just ask Cork
Sligo had a very convincing win tonight and Micky Adams could prove to be a very shrewd appointment. He`s been around the block in the English leagues and is highly experienced. So if Limerick and Sligo start hoovering up points between now and the end of the season, that means 4 other teams will get sucked into the mix. I think Bray are safe, with the very underrated Mick Cooke in charge. But Derry, Galway, Longford and the Drogs will be living very close to the edge for the next couple of months. Personally I think it`s a very exciting relegation battle, where any two from the bottom half could go down. Anyone want to dare forecast the 11th and 12th team come the end of the season?

Game on alright, 9 games to go for Limerick to keep this run going. Does have a touch of the Athlones about them, think Drogheda are there best hope of catching who are in a bad shape now

Longford fans will be aware that they never play well after the mid season break. We spent a extra season in the 1st Division because of that problem. I hope it does not come back to haunt us now. Looking at us last night it's hard to see us getting enough goal's. Just hope we can out of this mess. However it does make for a very interesting run in.

The full extent of United's injuries.
http://galwayunitedfc.ie/injury-update-post-bohemians/ Enda Curran probably has a 3 match ban as well. It'll be a miracle if Galway beat Drogs on Monday. |

Why is that? Wouldn't have thought anyone in bray really cared that much about us. We were awful last night. Poor crowd again. Wouldn't be surprised to see us going down. McDonnell makes some baffling team selections and awful tactics at times. We can't keep chopping and changing managers though. When darius finally gets his badges well hopefully have a long term manager appointed. I just worry it will be too late. It was grand in 80s and 90s when we went down as we were always guaranteed to come back up. Different these days. When we eventually go down, it'll be years, if at all, before we go back up imo. Still only 2 clubs constantly in premier more than us though. Long may it continue!! |

There`s no doubt limerick have momentum.
Its similar to Athlone last year but there`s one big difference Limerick are winning games while Athlone could only manage to eek out draws. The inability to turn draws into wins cost them in the end. The game against Derry is huge now for us. It has to be a win if we are to take the fight by the nuts. Drogheda are in big trouble and it wouldn't surprise me if they ended up bottom. I think if ourselves and Limerick can put a few results together I cants see Drogheda matching them. 11th - Limerick 12th - Drogheda |

As a Cork fan, I'd like Sligo to get relegated because it's a long away trip.

Surely if distance is the criteria, you would like to see the whole league bar Limerick and maybe Galway relegated |
