Defenders shine brightest as Bohemians and Shelbourne draw at Dalymount Park via IrishTimesSport
Eventually the contest boiled over with Ali Coote and Jad Hakiki entangled in a minor melee that invited all 20 out field players to huddle. A bucket of yellow cards was poured on the occasion without any obvious nastiness.
Stall, but not stop. The League of Ireland is set to be dominated for the foreseeable future by Derry and Rovers, which makes Bohs and Shels also-rans unless Duff’s squad can get a cash injection from Hull City owner Acun Ilicali. Or Bohs find a second wind. Bohs finished the first-half the stronger when James McManus sprayed a lovely ball wide left for Jordan Flores only for Byrne to read the play and deny Jonathan Afolabi a tap-in.
Bohs goalkeeper James Talbot was a welcome sight, having withdrawn from the Republic of Ireland training camp in Bristol this week with a knock. He made the first save of a dour affair in the 56th minute as half chances continued to come and go. Afolabi forced a lunging block by Shane Griffin before, down the other end, Jack Moylan’s snapshot was straight at Talbot.
