Come on DCU!

That goalkeeper is a hero.

cake sale next week in the school

would banana bread be frowned upon?

This Conor Cox chap is a bit shit.

Luke Connolly has excellent raw talent, raw being the key word. Heā€™s not quite harnessing his ability, but that is just on what iā€™m watching here.

Lads crippled playing games two days in a row. Terrible stuff.

The ref has blatantly favoured UCC here. He apparently is a mature student there.

Boylan beats Morgan again. :clap:

Stephen Oā€™Brien was excellent for DCU.

Number 25 was very good as well. Constantly there for the pass and carried the ball very well.

Commiserations to @downyourthroats and all college ultras.

Mickey Quinn from Longford, was it? Socks up to the knee?

Yes. I didnā€™t know it was the current Longford and former Essendon player.

Conor Cox will not sleep well for missing such a gilt-edged chance with his team 1pt ahead in injury time. I knew it would haunt them that miss. It canā€™t be understated what a horrible bollix he made of the chance, in acres of room and essentially in a 3 v 1 situation on the full back he chose to stop rather than carry it and hit an effort for a point from outside the 21. For a fella supposedly very good, iā€™m inclined to agree with Kev.

Conor Boyle played very well for DCU who seemed to have a much stronger overall panel.

Thought Oā€™Brien was the best player on the pitch while Dorman and Connolly were good for UCC.

Moyna wonā€™t give a fuck I imagine, the prick

Wil such a miss destroy him when he takes the step down to Senior County football do you think?

He canā€™t kick under pressure. I was behind the goal for the last 10 mins of extra time and he botched another one. Weather itā€™s physical pressure or mental pressure he is poor in that situation. Hardly a Kerry IC forward trait.
None of the Kerry men I know expect him to make it anyway.

Prodigious. But hasnā€™t always shown it. I think the faith shown in him at Sigerson now is helping and has brought him on. I really hope he plays next week.

Much stronger? They won by a point after extra time.

Their subs made a bigger impact.
