I couldn't do it the week before.

Watched the game.

Yeah, Sligo have regressed.

Now, I will put in their defence, seven of their starting 15 are out injured.

Seven.

Their entire full back line.

The new bounce from the management, Eamon O'Hara, Desi Sligo, hasn't emerged so far.

They're struggling with kick-outs.

They're struggling big with kick-outs.

They're struggling with winning primary possession out in the middle of the field.

And...

And I don't think they know who their best 15 is.

They battle back well at the end and we're unlucky not to get it.

But can I just point to two players that I've... I watched two players... I know one of them already and he's class.

As far as I can remember, John O'Connor was the highest scorer in the country in the National League.

I watched him in action last.

He's a serious forward.

And there's a young lad who was brilliant centre-field against Cork and brilliant again last week, young Higgins.

So fair play to him.

Tipton, Wynne-Manting, they had, I'd say, 20 supporters there, but Lyle's supporters.
