  • Dundalk Hit the Right Notes to Beat Finn Harps
    English 3rd-6th Class Developing skills of Comprehension Dundalk hit the right notes to beat Finn Harps Dundalk took a deserved three points following a comprehensive two goal victory over Finn Harps at a damp Oriel Park on Monday night. Dundalk bossed the first half and took an early lead through former Derry City attacker Patrick Mc Eleney who ghosted along the edge of the penalty area before firing a shot low into the bottom right hand corner of Ciaran Gallagher’s net on six minutes. That appeared to set the tone for a goal laden evening however this failed to materialise in the opening forty five minutes as the home side had the monopoly on possession but failed to increase their lead due to a well organised Finn Harps defence. Gallagher, who had missed the side’s first league meeting due to work commitments, was a busy man in the first half as he saved well from both John Mountney and Daryl Horgan in quick succession before referee Neil Doyle was forced to intervene and ask the net minder to speed up his set pieces. Just on the stroke of half time Dundalk almost increased their lead but Paddy Barrett’s close range header from an inswinging free kick thumped the crossbar and Harps escaped further punishment. The second half began in a subdued manner as Ruairí Keating departed the field on a stretcher in the 52nd minute and his replacement David Scully was one of five Harps players booked in the second half. Manager Ollie Horgan was sent to the stand for protesting following the booking of Gallagher for timewasting in the 68th minute and his name sake Daryl put the game to bed less than ten minutes later as he rifled the ball home from ten yards following Dundalk pressure down the right.

  • European Champions
    CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE Welcome to the SSE Airtricity League guide to Irish clubs in European competitions ahead of the start of the 2017/18 UEFA Champions League and Europa League season. This guide has all the necessary statistics and facts you will need to cover the SSE Airtricity League clubs’ journey in Europe this campaign and I’d like to thank Michael Hayes in the FAI Competitions Department for creating this guide. Each season, we all look forward to seeing our clubs compete in European competition and last season definitely didn’t disappoint. Dundalk grabbed the headlines across the continent for their exploits in the UEFA Champions League and Europa League. Stephen Kenny managed his side through difficult ties against FH Hafnarfjordur and BATE Borisov to lead the Lilywhites to the UEFA Champions League play-offs against Legia Warsaw. After a valiant display in Warsaw, they were narrowly beaten on aggregate but still qualified for the Europa League group stages. Great results against AZ Alkmaar and Maccabi Tel Aviv followed and the run in Europe showed the very best of domestic Irish football. Whilst Dundalk grabbed the headlines, Cork City also enjoyed a successful run in the Europa League. Wins over Linfield and Swedish Cup winners BK Hacken set up a third qualifying round tie against Genk. They were narrowly beaten by the Belgian side who went on to reach the quarter-finals of the competition. Looking ahead to this season, it’ll be great to see Derry City back in European competition, a club with a proud tradition in European competition.

  • Shamrock Rovers and the Return to Kevin O'connor to Cork City
    CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE Welcome to the 2019 SSE Airtricity League. It is great to have the domestic game back and this is a truly exhilarating time of the year. Last season proved to be exciting throughout the campaign as Dundalk secured the domestic double, the SSE Airtricity League and the Irish Daily Mail FAI Cup in emphatic style. Stephen Kenny's proved to be the team to beat last season after a fantastic campaign as Pat Hoban led the goalscoring charts with 29 goals. The Lilywhites will have a period of adjustment though after Stephen Kenny left for the FAI to take on the Republic of Ireland Under-21 position before moving into the senior role in 2020. John Gill has gone into Dundalk to work with Vinny Perth so it will be interesting to see how the Champions get used to life without Stephen. There are a number of teams who have made some noteworthy additions during the off-season with the likes of Chris Forrester and Mikey Drennan at St. Patrick's Athletic, Aaron Drinan at Waterford, Jack Byrne at Shamrock Rovers and the return to Kevin O'Connor to Cork City. I truly believe that this will be one of the most exciting seasons in recent memory in both the Premier and First Division. Shelbourne have made some fantastic signings with Ciaran Kilduff returning to the domestic game and Paul Keegan has made the step down to the First Division with Bray Wanderers. The beauty of the First Division is that anyone of the teams could challenge like Wexford Youths did in 2015, and to see Danny Furlong back at Ferrycarrig Park should excite us all.
