TALKING POINT

Sean Brennan has been Drogheda’s talisman this season and remains their top scorer thanks to his quality from dead-ball situations which is unmatched in the First Division. But his discipline let him down big time on Friday night.

Adriano Reale was the fourth official whose tete-a-tete with Tim Clancy led to the manager being sent off the week before, so to get booked for picking an argument with the same ref was desperately poor judgment on Brennan’s part.

And goodness knows what was going through his head when he lunged into a needless tackle to earn himself a second yellow card.
