Off the Ball, GAA. In today's game, as a player group, you need to be able to manage yourselves on the pitch, but managers need to be able to get messages in and alter how you're playing if it's not working. And I thought Cork and Dublin, for the whole 17 minutes, played the exact same way, seeing that it wasn't going right and that it wasn't working.
Join in the obsession. Subscribe now at offtheball.com forward slash join. Well, folks, welcome along to another night of League of Ireland Night Light. I'm delighted to say that I'm joined by our regular co-host, Shane Keegan. Shane, how are you doing? Shane, how are you keeping? Have you managed to defrost yourself yet? I tell you what, Shane, I've just got inside my car outside Oriel Park and my hands are still roaring pink at me. It's a bitter, bitter night out there. I'm just glad my game went ahead, to be honest with you, Shane. That was my, I suppose not a big worry when you're playing on AstroTurf, but I was driving up through the absolutely torrential rain and I was kind of wondering to myself,
I wonder, could a couple of games get called off tonight, and unfortunately that's the way it went.
Yeah, 100%.
I was actually caught. Can you hear me?
Yeah, yeah, go on. Yeah, I was actually caught with a training session early on myself, so I missed the first half of games, and then I came back...
What happened during the League of Ireland fixtures this week?
I was opening up the app as I was turning on Virgin and the next thing I saw that two of the games were gone by the wayside and I kind of jumped to the conclusion that was because of the fuel crack and that maybe teams weren't able to get to where they needed to be for games and it was only then I saw it kind of put two and two together considering I had been standing out in lashing rain for the previous hour and a half I probably should have copped just how detrimental that was going to be to pitches so yeah it played carnage didn't it so only three of our five games but still plenty of talking points
Absolutely, plenty of talking points. Maybe if we have any fans in who might have travelled, well I was going to say travelled down to Waterford if you draw it, I don't think there's many doing that journey, but if you were a Shells fan maybe doing that, or a Galway fan who was maybe going, or a Waterford fan going to home games as well, we'd love to hear your opinion. I'll be honest with you Shane, if I was on my way down, if I was a fan and I was going to one of them games and it was called off that late, I'd be rightly very, very, very annoyed. Shane, I think I might have just lost your line there briefly. Just a run through while we wait for Shane to come back. Just a run through the scores of the three games that did happen for anyone that missed it.
St. Patrick's Athletic, who were top of the table of course before today, lost 1-0 at home to Shamrock Rovers. so that's twice now Shamrock Rovers have managed to defeat St Pat's so far this season and basically means that Shamrock Rovers go top of the table and thanks to that and thanks to Sligo Rovers getting a huge 2-1 win at Daly Mount Park and both started this season very very strong but without a win now since the 13th of March when they beat Galway United 1-0 and goals are becoming a bit of a worry for Alan Reynolds men and then the game that I was Luckily enough to be at tonight, Dundalk 2, Derry City 2. I'll be honest, Derry City and Taylor Lynch can be very, very happy going back up the road with the result.
Probably not so much with the performance, but definitely with the result. Shane, do I have you back in there? I don't think I do. So I'm going to go straight on to our request. And I can see from the game that I was at, we have Marty has requested. So I'm going to get Marty in there now. while we wait for Shane to come back. Marty, did you make the trip to Oriel Park tonight?
I did, Ben, and I have to say, I don't want to hear about you complaining about the weather up there in your press box, the Bronze Sandwich Brigade. I was down in the trenches down there.
