Sligo beat Shamrock Rovers on Monday to leapfrog them at the top of the table, quickly cutting Rovers’ early lead and surpassing it. It’s bunched up a bit at the top now with three points separating Sligo in 1st and St Pats in 3rd.

At the bottom Waterford and Longford are already becoming cut adrift with the latter off the bottom by a point. However, they’re already seven points adrift of Derry in 8th.
