Chris Forrester had the look of a man wanting to make a quick getaway from Richmond Park last Friday night.
Hood up and head down, the St Patrick s Athletic talisman emerged from the home dressing room hoping he might be able to go unnoticed.
No chance.
Not this season, and not after his sublime two-goal display against Longford Town which kept the Saints top of the table ahead of Shamrock Rovers. I haven t scored a nice goal like that in a while so it was pleasing, Forrester smiled, adding with more than a hint of understatement. I do have a bit of an eye for goals sometimes.

Not for the first time in his career, Chris Forrester stole the show, capping it with a brace of delightful goals, as league leaders St Patrick s Athletic maintained their unbeaten start to the season.
After a lacklustre opening 45 minutes at Richmond Park, Saints came alive after the interval to all but seal their sixth win of the campaign with two goals inside seven minutes of the restart.
A fifth defeat in six games, and without a goal from play during that run, leaves bottom side Longford facing a long season ahead.

Jim Magilton gave little away after Dundalk s draw
On a day when Dundalk were able to at least do some of the talking on the pitch, the club s Sporting Director Jim Magilton was unable to shed any light on the drama unfolding behind the scenes at Oriel Park.
Junior Ogedi-Uzokwe scored five minutes from time to give Dundalk a share of the spoils against high-flying St Patrick’s Athletic at Oriel Park.
Junior bundled the ball home from close range just when it looked as though Dundalk were set to slip to their fourth league defeat in-a-row after Sam Bone had headed the visitors in front on 56 minutes.
