Bad night for the coefficient with Sligo, as the seeded team, crashing out against their Albanian opponents. In this world of modern technology we were able to watch the Albanian TV broadcast of the game via the internet, even though we hadn't be able to watch the "home" leg.
Sligo had plenty of possession and more than enough chances but the 1-1 draw wasn't enough. The damage was defiantely done in the home leg and despite throwing the kitchen sink at it the Bit'O'Red crashed out on aggregate.
Up North, Linfield and Distrillery continued the proud tradition of the Irish League with a cumulative 18-1 defeat between them. I usually want local sides to do well, but the continued arrogance of the team from "An Pairc Whinger"(see what I did there) means that sympathy is in short supply for them.
Next week Derry, Pats, Bohs, the Glens and the Crues are all in action and we'll be hoping for an upturn in fortunes.
