I am actually hopeful of getting to this one, will drive down from Kildare. Anyone know about parking near the ground?

Definitely on Sunday. Hopefully some nice weather and a nice result next Sunday. If we can start how we finished last night then I think we will win it.
Aaron Brown needs to be dropped going on tonight. My main gripe is that once the Bohs players realised he could be turned easily so they did this for the rest of of the game to great success. I have no doubt Devlin would have been at the game last night and spotted this. He doesn't cope well under pressure either.
Hopefully Williams will make his return and have a straight swap with Nzuzi.
You should be able to Park on the street near the ground. There is no actual car park but being a sunday I doubt there will be a charge for parking.

Cheers. I was there last year for the League Cup game, but got the train in. It's a nice ground, and if the weather is nice the area is amazing. Of course, if the wind kicks up, it beats Thomond as a wind tunnel.

With Cork messing up against Shels, good chance for Limerick to open a gap on Cork.

We'll leapfrog Shams with a win on Sunday. When was the last time that happened in the PD?

Ya a bad slip up by Cork last night. Cost me 110euro winnings but at least we get the chance to move 3 points clear. Cork then have Dundalk away the following week which is a tough ask so we could potentially put 6 points between ourselves and Cork. Its hard to know what Bray will be like. They always pull off some good results during the course of the season and if we play like we did in the first half on Tuesday we will be in trouble. Nice pitch usually though so if the breeze stays away it might suit us.

Miserable weather, and traffic getting into Bray was a nightmare, missed kick off.
We were great in the first half. Axel, Curran, O'Leary, Tracy all playing really well and totally bossing the show. First two goals were great stuff, really well worked strikes, second in particular. Tracy's two free-kicks, almost mirror images of each other, and the Bray keeper really should have learned his lesson for the second one.
I wasn't that impressed with Bray. Their defence was poor and exploited easily enough, and their forward line was toothless. It really should have been a closer contest, because Bray had a whole heap of chances in the second half, really good ones, but Ryan did enough to keep them at bay. Some truly great saves, man of the match without a doubt in my mind.
Our backline wasn't great, maybe missed someone like Purcell to really keep them together. A few hairy backpasses, miscontrol, that sort of thing. Costelloe was particularly guilty. Better teams would have punished us bigtime. But Bray just could not get it in the net and flapped around at the back for our first two goals.
It really was a lot like the League Cup game last year, when we scored three goals in quick succession then basically let Brat play away for the rest of the game.
Nice to see the officials pull out the card for a terrible dive, but some silly yellows given out elsewhere.
Attendance didn't look great, Limerick fans had the terrace to themselves.
Roll on Shels. Great to be in the top half.

Agree with neverfeltbetter above, Limerick totally dominant in first half. Bray's chances in 2nd half were only because the game was won, it was over as a contest after 35 mins. The two free kicks from Treacy were worth the admission alone but my favourite was Axel's second, lovely cross and finish. Barry Ryan was superb though, never lost concentration and some fantastic point blank saves. Curran was top again I thought - his work rate was phenominal. Reckon there was 150 Limerick there perhaps? Poor Bray crowd though.

Great win and great travelling support. Bray had chances in the first half too.

Great boost to us confidence wise before Shels.
I always felt even though Bray came back into it that if we had to we could step it up another gear. Ive never been so confident about keeping the lead we got as I was after we went 0-2 up yesterday.
