21:10.... Those wee spells of goals flying in everywhere seem to always happen when I think about making a cup of tea...Bray already beginning to employ time-wasting tackles as Shane Barrett is ruled off side and Derek Foran moves the ball twice before being told by the ref to hurry up, then Barret is taken down by Dave Webster and the ref doesn't award either a free or card despite it being a clear foul and Webster being the last man back

19:55.... To answer a question asked - Tommy Dunne is assistant in Cork
19:55.... PJ in United Park - Bray have little to show so far, it's been all Drogheda as the Seagulls have failed to get passed the halfway line and as i say that, corner for Bray!!!
19:54.... Grace again - And I can't give you a crowd figure but not even the enticement of free pizza has brought the masses through the gates.

NEWSFLASH: The Wexford kick off time is now 20:00. Some odd reason about declaring times at the start of the season.
19:24.... The Wexford and UCD teams are in. In Terryland the teams are also in and Peter Cherrie goes straight into goals, Kevin McKinley also makes his debut, as does Michael McGowan for Dundalk. In Drogheda, the teams are almost in. I am just adding the Shels and Sporting lineups, completing the teams for tonight!! Just before 7:30.
19:17.... At Tolka Park there seems to be more people than usual about and about. Hopefully that will mean a big crowd for the clash.
19:10.... As Pounding from Doves blasts out, I'm told Galway United have the new sponsors on their tee shirts, Papa Johns and there is a new pizza counter in the corner. As Galway is our regular Food reviewing ground, I'll expect full reports on the quality of pizza.
19:08.... Ok - Drogheda United is covered tonight by PJ Murray. Galway is getting the attentions of Alan Dooley and Grace Uhr. In Wexford, Conor Meagher is our man following the action. Kildare County's friendly is monitored by Daire Walsh whilst in Waterford Dean Hayes is going to try see if the Blues can beat Roy Keane's Ipswich Town.
19:00.... My last quiet moments of the evening before the madness of updating is accompanied by the sounds of Hot Chip and "Ready for the Floor". So to get the ball rolling on the evenings events, email me your favourite song of 2009 so far.
18:13.... It's been a busy week so far. We have had Derry, St. Pat's and Bohs all drawing 1-1 in Europe as well as a number of midweek friendlies. The latest news is the draw for the Third round of the European competitions. Any thoughts? Email me.

20:18.... Delaney just let the ball roll between his legs! lucky for him Hedderman was on hand to clear for a corner - that came to nothing
20:17....GOAL LEYTON ORIENT- Ben Chorley - 41 minutes
Orient go a goal up on Kildare via a Ben Chorley header.
20:16....GOAL DUNDALK - Michael Collins - 28 minutes
Collins gives Dundalk the lead. Dundalk are on the board at Terryland Park with Michael Collins heading home above Sean Kelly at the back post from a Kevin McKinley corner.
20:14.... Dundalk return fire with an opportunity of their own immediately as Thomas Heary attempts to deflect in a low header but Ryan takes it on the bounce.
In Wexford, Sheahan gets onto a bad clearance from a routine Dempsey long ball. Sheahan ran wide but lacked composure and fired wide.
20:14.... For Shels Flood comes close - ball over top, chased, held off Gannon, Quigley saves. Flood over the top again, causing problems for the Fingal back line, they dont seem sure to step up or drop off.
Great chance for Galway there as Sean Kelly lobs a high cross into the box and five bodies leap high. Keeper Peter Cheerie fails to grasp it and Vinny Faherty gets a header away but it grazes the left post.
20:11.... Jamie Duffy with Drogheda's first shot on target as he beats Dave Webster and his low shot is saved by Chris O'Connor and the ball bobbles to Barrett but the keeper recovers
20:10.... Tempers rising in the Calderon of Tolka Park...getting heated up, few late tackles, few hard tackles. Keely must be hating it.......Shaun Williams just smashed a free kick from 25 yards high and wide for Sporting.
20:09.... Yellow card for Dundalk's Kevin McKinley 21mins
Hello to Frank in our Comments section. A Wexford Youths fan and regular contributor on match nights. Likewise hello to Pennyssocks, another regular on Friday's keeping me company!!
20:07.... Alex Williams has Dundalk's first real chance of the night, forcing a good save from Barry Ryan from an attempted volley.
20:06....GOAL BRAY - Gary McCabe - 21 minutes
A wonder strike from Gary McCabe doubles Bray's lead. Once again Bray get a goal from nothing, some scrappy defending and Gary McCabe picks the ball up about 25 yards out and his somewhat speculative shot beats Paul Skinner and Bray find themselves with a 2-0 lead
20:04.... Dave Webster gets an ear bashing from Eddie Gormley for going too far upfield. Another corner for Bray.Cleared properly this time
20:03....SPORTING PENO - Missed - Conan Byrne - 2 minutes
....Conan Byrne...misses!!!! 2 minutes in. Bayly played Byrne in and he was taken down by Delaney after a quick Fingal break.
20:03.... In Drogheda, Shane O'Neill takes the ball in midfield and runs at the Drogheda defence and has a pop from 25 yards out as the Seagulls grow in confidence. In Wexford, the Youths are in black with white shorts. UCD are in all white. UCD are playing into the sun.
20:02.... First corner of the Tolka game goes to Shelbourne.
20:01.... Bray's Philip Knight is carded after sliding in on Paul Skinner after the keeper slid down to collect the ball, a somewhat shocked atmosphere in United Park after that goal, the few Bray fans are in full voice however
20:00.... In Tolka Park , Colin O'Brien making his competitive Shels debut tonight. Game on there now.
19:58.... I'm told by Alan Dooley this is only Alan Murphy's second start of the season for Galway after a lengthy injury lay-off.
19:56....GOAL BRAY - Ian Ryan OG - 12 minutes
Bray take the lead with an Ian Ryan OG. A mix up in communication between the defender and Skinner and with lots of time Ryan heads past Skinner into an empty net in an attempt to pass back to the keeper
19:55.... To answer a question asked - Tommy Dunne is assistant in Cork
19:55.... PJ in United Park - Bray have little to show so far, it's been all Drogheda as the Seagulls have failed to get passed the halfway line and as i say that, corner for Bray!!!
19:54.... Grace again - And I can't give you a crowd figure but not even the enticement of free pizza has brought the masses through the gates.
19:53....Grace Uhr reportingWell Galway have 3 suspensions including Jay O'Shea so have been forced into a major reshuffle. Alan Murphy is playing up front with Vinny Faherty and Sean Kelly is in centre half with Shane Guthrie missing.
19:50.... The Cork City assistant manager is in Tolka Park.
19:47.... So we only have two 7:45 starts tonight. We have 3 more games starting at 8pm. Galway is now underway. In Drogheda, Bray being forced to defend deep early on as the right wing pairing of Ian Ryan and Brian King are working well
19:45.... Game on in Drogheda.
19:41.... As we rapidly approach kick off we are now all set. Music choice of the moment - Rumble Strips - Not the only Person....
19:40.... In Drogheda, a very meagre attendance there, less than 1,000 for what is really a massive game for Drogheda, and there is a handful of travelling support - PJ Murray reporting...
19:32.... Guy Bates got International clearance at 5pm today for Drogheda. Scott Gibb is a new signing. Gibb is a 22 year old from Portadown, his last club was FalkirkKildare's friendly has kicked off.
19:26.... Paddy Kavanagh starts for Bray!! In Waterford, Roy Keane has emerged from the bowels of the ground and his appearance is greeted by screaming, scrambling and the whole ground rising to get a clear view. Bigger than Jesus in Waterford it seems...
NEWSFLASH: The Wexford kick off time is now 20:00. Some odd reason about declaring times at the start of the season.
19:24.... The Wexford and UCD teams are in. In Terryland the teams are also in and Peter Cherrie goes straight into goals, Kevin McKinley also makes his debut, as does Michael McGowan for Dundalk. In Drogheda, the teams are almost in. I am just adding the Shels and Sporting lineups, completing the teams for tonight!! Just before 7:30.
19:17.... At Tolka Park there seems to be more people than usual about and about. Hopefully that will mean a big crowd for the clash.
19:10.... As Pounding from Doves blasts out, I'm told Galway United have the new sponsors on their tee shirts, Papa Johns and there is a new pizza counter in the corner. As Galway is our regular Food reviewing ground, I'll expect full reports on the quality of pizza.
19:08.... Ok - Drogheda United is covered tonight by PJ Murray. Galway is getting the attentions of Alan Dooley and Grace Uhr. In Wexford, Conor Meagher is our man following the action. Kildare County's friendly is monitored by Daire Walsh whilst in Waterford Dean Hayes is going to try see if the Blues can beat Roy Keane's Ipswich Town.
19:00.... My last quiet moments of the evening before the madness of updating is accompanied by the sounds of Hot Chip and "Ready for the Floor". So to get the ball rolling on the evenings events, email me your favourite song of 2009 so far.
18:13.... It's been a busy week so far. We have had Derry, St. Pat's and Bohs all drawing 1-1 in Europe as well as a number of midweek friendlies. The latest news is the draw for the Third round of the European competitions. Any thoughts? Email me.
