Laois no goalkeeper and Derry no defenders!!
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Laois missed 5 excellent goal chances, Derry scored all of theirs. Derry could have knicked it in the end though. Lynch missed an easy chance.

A roller coaster of a game.  Fair old howler by Postie to gift Laois a goal right at the start.  High scoring game with mistakes a plenty.  Indeed we could have sneaked it with a very uncharacteristic miss by big Mark.  5 goals and not win,  I'd say that hasn't happened too often.  Oisin,  Gareth McK and Brendan best in a Derry shirt.  Big D Kingston is some footballer when he turns it on. 

Does anyone know the craic with the Loais man stretchered off?

This oul defensive Ulster/ Midlands type of football is ruining the game ;D
Were there any defenders playing at all?

It looked at times that both teams were down to 12 players there was so much space. Laois were 3 to 4 points up a couple of times, Derry never led, why towards the end no Laois player dragged down a Derry player going towards goal is a mystery. No masters of the dark arts anyway!

Laois should have buried Derry they had 5/6 goal chances themselves but either balooned over the bar or took the wrong option.

Derry celebrated the draw like a win they know they got out of jail.

The referee was very harsh on Laois in the first half the Derry first goal was a free out which the whole stand could see two Derry lads in front of me were laughing when he let play go on after the Laois full back was dragged to the ground.

The penalty was given for a foot block even tho Colm Begley was maybe 8 yards away and it hit him on the back side.

I think the ref knew he was harsh on Laois and gave them soft frees in the second half but right at the death he blew for full time when Evan O Carrolls long free landed in Brendan Quigleys hand and he kicked it over the bar?
Laois were naive in defense and Derry got in very east for their last three goals Laois were just to honest making an effort instead of pulling down a man and taking a black card like Derry or other teams would do.


It was some game and well worth the admission fee pity more teams don't adapt this type of football.
