Bray Wanderers ... 0 UCD ... 0: The goalposts at the Carlisle Grounds frustrated both sides as they had to settle for a point that is of precious little use to either as they struggle at the bottom of the table.
Bray, without the injured backbone of the team in midfielder Eddie Gormley and striker Jason Byrne, brought in Eamonn Zayed and Kieran O'Brien for their first starts of the season.
The imposing Zayed impressed and had a couple of half-chances he blazed over the top, before UCD's accurate passing caught the Bray defence square on 16 minutes.
Darragh Ryan's diagonal ball from the left put Robbie Doyle in behind Wes Charles, but the former Bray player lacked composure at the crucial time and sliced his right-foot shot high and wide.
Bray survived another scare six minutes after the break when Pat Sullivan hit a post with a 20-yard drive following a poorly cleared corner.
The home side suddenly came alive in the guise of Zayed who, after shooting wide himself, set up O'Brien whose toepoke came back off a post.
BRAY WANDERERS: Walsh; Britton (Doohan 85 mins), Charles, Tresson, Long; O' Connor (James 70 mins), Keogh, Fox, Forsyth; Zayed, O'Brien (Ryan 77 mins).
