BATE turned off the lights during Dundalk’s training in the stadium last night and threatened to put on the sprinklers if they didn’t leave. Up against it already!! COME ON DE TOWN!!! Nobody wants us winning!! Stick it to de man!!!!

Useless clowns. Shat the togs
Embarrassment to the league
Dave ,why don’t you draw a a little sad face on your profile picture ,because that’s what you are ,a sad loser. It’s only half time and the tie is still alive, come on the town.
Huge game for the league. An away goal and a draw would suit nicely
The two commentators are so depressing too listen to on eir … jesus christ
Where can we watch this game?

Sean’s favourite channel..
Well i can see men playing with balls so it will do thanks sean
Dundalk look rattled, they need to get there head right soon. This BATE side is there for the taking!
Dundalk FC…the team for me lol best of luck
Bate Borisov. BATE THEM GOOD.
Are Bate sponsored by Tampax??
Sorry – my mistake it’s Tpax… lettering looks very similar though. Dundalk putting up a brave performance..
Horrendous goal to give away – shocking pass
Stupid goal to give away but BATE were different class after that. Dundalk were heroic in the last 10 mins to keep it 1-0.
*channel number 872
Half Time. Very solid defensively, Gary Rogers has had little to do but we need a little bit more going forward. There was one attack that we cleared and BATE had 1 outfield player in there own half, that shows that there is space there for a counter attack and going all out defence is important but its a recipe for disaster. At this moment it looks to be reminiscent of Ireland vs Belgium at the euros an we need to ask more questions for the BATE defence.
I was right, hopefully it doesn’t end like the Belgium game now.
If they came out and played further up they’d get caught badly on the counter I think. Oriel park would have been a big advantage, feck UEFA.
Away on hols, link anyone?
If dundalk loose the tie are they in Europa league group stages or another qualifying match??
If they lose over the two legs they go to a Europa league qualifying match
They’re s h i t e
They’ll only loose the tie if they get hot under the collar.
There is a tie their yet, well done Dundalk
