    2009 Cup Final - Mid and Post-mortem

    I'll start this off a tad early

    Windy conditions, but at least it's dry.

    Quite a few empty seats visible - so much for the mammoth demand.

    Does anyone else think that Boco looks a bit like Anelka ?

    And Damien Rico needs to grasp that Fingal County is an administrative region, and NOT a football team.....!

    Here's hoping for a good game, despite the wind.

    Okay standard, and who knew that the creator of Sherlock Holmes would get mentions from both commentators? Am I alone in questioning Rico's supposed "intellect"? He just strikes me as a bit of a Eubank.

    Nice move from fingal there...scrappy game alright.

    Rico's referring to them as "Fingal County" is pretty funny too....
    I’m not pedantic...I’m merely overly concerned with minute details.

    Started off pretty scrappy alright with not much happening. Has picked up a good bit in the last 15mins of the first half though. The wind is incredible.

    Rico has verbal diaorrhea (sp?).

    He does talk a lot of balls - half the time it just sounds like he's talking just for the sake of talking.

    One and the same according to a certain D9 club's fans!.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    I thought Fingal County were the better team to be honest.
    The Model Club

    Tell all the Bohs you know
    that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
    and it's not gonna be three
    and it's not gonna be four
    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    Goal was a bit scrappy but Sligo deserved it I think.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    Looks like a mild day compared to the epic final between St Pats and Derry 3 years ago.

    Nice to see a real team with fans just score there now.
    So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html

    Almost 700 unsold tickets.

    Yet some were arguing on here for another 1,200 seats to be installed due to pent-up demand....

    Surprised at the lack of any card there for the Sligo keeper on the penalty decision.

    I suppose it's a Cup Final and we want to try to keep everyone on the pitch if we can help it
    Kom Igen, FCK...

    Sligo's keeper has lost the plot the last few minutes!

    In fairness it looks like A LOT if not all of those empty seats are on the Fingal side. Huge amount of free seats in the stand and behind the goal where the Fingal fans are.
