SOCCER: Galway United manager John Caulfield with Galway Bay FM's Mike Rafferty after their 0-0 Premier Division draw with Drogheda United

Galway United were held to a scoreless draw by Drogheda United in the SSE Airtricity League Men's Premier Division upon their return to Eamonn Deacy Park on Friday (7th August 2026).

In a game of little chances, a David Hurley missed penalty could have made a massive difference to their league position but the Tribesmen remain in seventh place on 30 points, five clear of the relegation zone.

Galway Bay FM's match commentary team were Mike Rafferty and Derek Rogers.
