Seriously impressed by UCD today, will give Drogs a decent game next weekend. Can't help but think Bray's summer window finally came back to bite them. An interesting few months ahead at the Carlisle by all accounts

End of the road for Longford Town's 2026 campaign but plenty of positives to be had. Some job by Wayne Groves to build a competitive squad, let alone make the playoffs. FD manager of the year for me

⏱FT - It is all over here in UCD Bowl as UCD beat Longford Town 2-0. Goals from McCullagh and Smith see UCD progress to the play-off final. Safe home to all Town fans and thank you for your support! UCD 2-0 Longford Town #Town2026 | #CmonDeTown | 🔴⚫

The 2,336 attendance is also Longford Town's highest attended competitive fixture at Bishopsgate since 2,749 were at the second leg of their promotion/relegation playoff v Bray in 2013..

Some night at Bishopsgate with 2,336 in the house. Been a while since it was like that. UCD in a playoff again. That one didn't go too badly the last time 🔴⚫

3-3 at Ferrycarrig. We weren't joking when we said it's more fun in Division 1. Some fightback from Longford Town but they - and Wexford after the first half - will feel they should have won.
