4-1, great result lads, I'd loved to have been able to make it down :( . What size city crowd was there? Was it as clear cut as the result indicates?
BTW Shels and Bohs drawing 1-1 going into injury time, the next few weeks should be interesting

Great Performance, great atmosphere, it could have even been more then 4. We hammerred them in the second half. The OG was strange.... you will have to see it on tv. Kearney was brilliant, so was Gamble and Greg did very well!

I thought we were very good tonight. We put them under a lot of pressure and took advantage of our opportunities. Kearney was very good as were Billy Woods and Kevin Doyle.
I think we didn't pass the ball well enough at times and gave the ball away too often. When the ball was being played up to the strickers it was coming back straight away. I'm too harsh.
Did anybody notice how long the grass on the pitch was? Was that a ploy to stop our passing game?
Is Reynolds now out of the Cup Final or what? If we were in England, the gesture he made to City fans at the end would be front page news and he would be fined thousands.
Great crowd down from Cork. I'd say 500 out of 3000 were City fans.
With Bohs only drawing tonight the 2nd place is in our own hands and if we can keep this run going who knows what else might happen?????? :D

Incredible....
For the first 20 minutes of the second half, we were Brazil/Real Madrid rolled into one. Superb performance.
Mickey : excellent, not at fault for the goal, but overall, not much to do.
Greg: great game. showed his worth to our club.
Dan: patchy performance. commanding at times, but some very poor attempts at clearances.
Benno: what can you say, this guy is the epitome of all that you want in a player...I want to have his children!
Hoggie: Mr. Dependable...This man must be the first name on the sheet after Benno
Billy: excellent game, he gave the ball away, made sure he won it back and we scored the 3rd from that
Gamble: Slowly but surely he is becoming THE player for City. Not spectacular, but his workrate, vision, and heart makes him our engine.
George: has changed his style of play, I think. He is now prepared to be the workhorse, the artisan of the team. Got a bollicking from Dolan about losing the ball at one stage, and after that chased half the thug team until he got the ball back. Still can't play the simple ball but.....WE LOVE YOU GEORGIE!
Kearney: MOTM and rightly so. A gem, a star, a diamond geezer. Maradonna will henceforth be known as the Argentine Kearney!
Doyler: The BEST signing City have EVER made. Proves it game after game.
O'Fynn: signs again tonight that God is about to return amongst us. Confidence is all he needs.
Behan: given little time, but you feel more and more comfortable that we have him to come on if we need something.
It's only one result, and against a fairly sh*te side too, but it was a very pleasing night. When we play like we did at times tonight, its f*cking breathtaking......
Great night, Dolan was absolutely thrilled....and the f*cking rat b@stard gets himself sent off at 4 - 1 down with a few minutes left.......SWEET! :D

Cork stormed back into the title race
with their fourth win on the spin to
move up to third in the table.
Alan Carey put through his own goal to
gift his former club Cork the lead on
18 minutes.
Willie Bruton levelled for Blues on 43
minutes. But Cork were much the better
side in the second half once Kevin
Doyle restored their lead within four
minutes of the restart.
Goals from Alan Bennett and then John O
Flynn completed the rout. Blues
player/boss Alan Reynolds was sent off
following an off the ball clash with
Denis Behan in the final minute.

Hoggie: 7/10 did his job
Billy: 8/10 gets down the wings still very well for an old man :) excellent game,
Gamble: 8/10.. making the position his own
George: 8/10 what can u say that hasnt been said before
Kearney: 9/10 2nd best player in the league
Doyler: 9/10 best player in the league..if dolan ever goes i wanna personally thank him for doyler
O'Fynn: 8/10 hes back. 2 in 2
The Corner I think that you will have to came down a small bit with us winning the league.
I think that we will go on a good run but we will have one or to draws.
Shels will have to keep it going but I say they will drop points as we have to play them up in dublin in two weeks time.
That will be the big one and the league will be won that night.???
As for the match Last night it was a good result for us and as for that rat all I can do is hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah thanks be to god he got sent off. hahahahahahahaha wa----. 4-1 too the cork city.

God it was an exhilerating performance - Kearney and Doyler were scintilating!! :D
Yippeee - it was a great performance from them all and great support behind the team......... never stopped singing! I have no bloody voice left this morning though!
And the waaaaahurrrfffffuuuur fans? What about them? They're crap!
"Longford Sunday week - I'm Longford Sunday week.....!!"
"Inbreds, Inbreds - what's the score?!"
As for Reynolds?? SCUM!
Even the Irish Times has mentioned the possibilty. Malone in his report of the $hels/Bohs game said:
"The draw means that Cork City now look the most serious threat to their ($hels) ambitions although Pat Dolan's side would need to win their two games in hand and their clash with Shelbourne in Dublin to slash their rivals' current lead to just one point."
At the very least, 2nd place is ours to lose.
Hate to be pessimistic, but it would be typical of City to f*ck up last nights result by dropping points to Longford and/or SPA.....:(
I know I should be more confident, but.........

Ok Ruairi, maybe a tad over exhuberant...or maybe just too many pints......:o
Or maybe Benno already told Ruairí that he could have his children and he's getting jeallous?
Thought Greg had a poor-ish first half but did very very well in the second half. I'd have Danny in before him though.
Kearney is a wizard. The Rat had Carey on to double mark him but even that didnt work and when Carey was taken off Kearney had even more fun with the poor Waterford right back. The fella must be very dizzy this morning when he woke up.
Gamble and Georgie work very very well as a centre midfield partnership, agree that Georgie has become more of a team player at one stage he was back clearing a ball off the line after Devine was beaten.

Forgot to say
The ref last night IMO was very very poor. He let Waterford away with their thug play but seemed to call Doyler up ever time he looked at a Waterford player.

Are you being a bit kind to Billy? I thought he was not in the game for quite a few periods, and then gave away a lot of ball. I think he might be dropped except for the wisdom of not changing a winning side.
Highlights for me were:
1. Decision to play Greg, even though it meant leaving Danny on the bench. The guy not only played well, his work rate was outstanding. 110% commitment like that must give the players around him a real lift. And when you can keep the best LB in the EL on the bench, that must count for something for the guy after an iffy relationship with Dolan this season.
2. Devine's save 10 minutes from time when we were lifting that kid from the front to the back of the stand. Waterford have a horrible belief in themselves even when they look well beaten. If that shot was not stopped, I think my heart would have.
3. The sight of Greg pushing the ref, and Georgie pulling him at the same time, (in a friendly sort of way like) trying to tell on Reynolds after he hit Behan.
4. The ref looking for his officials to escort him off the pitch at half time just after he ignored a foul on Doyler on the edge of the box. The Blues centre back deserved a card, we deserved a free kick, and the latch waved Play On. Actually scratch that, that was not a highlight, it just made the city players and supporters mad, so this incident is a highlight in retrospect. It seemed to drive the City team to do their talking on the pitch at a time when the ref gave a run of strange decisions against us.
5. O'Flynn. He was everywhere. He was awesome. HE IS BACK.
6. The ref allowing us poor enough advantage when it should have been a penalty. I bet he got the shock of his career when we actually went on to score. (4th goal, I think).
7. Gamble looking like City's next captain.

Waterford United 1-4 Cork City
Cork may have failed to win any of their first six Premier Division Munster derbies after Waterford’s promotion to the top flight two years ago, but this landslide victory at the RSC confirms their new-found superior in the direct battles of the south coast.
Waterford had taken three wins and three draws in those six derbies, but Cork reversed the trend with a 2-0 win at Turners Cross in July and this result, in the final derby of the season, will inflict plenty of pain upon the Suirsiders.
Nevertheless, while Cork have a Uefa Cup place to aim for, Waterford have the more pressing matter of an FA Ireland Carlsberg Cup decider against Longford Town to come next week, so both clubs can still achieve their ambitions for the season.
Waterford had two former Cork players within their ranks, and neither will remember this game especially fondly.
Alan Carey, the former City player, saw his backpass roll into his own net to give the visitors the lead after 18 minutes, and Waterford player/manager Alan Reynolds, who left Cork under a cloud 18 months ago, was dismissed by referee Dave McKeon in injury time to cap a miserable night for the home side.
Willie Bruton, who had come within a whisker of joining Cork from Cobh Ramblers two seasons back, cancelled out Carey’s o.g. to haul Waterford level three minutes before the break, but that was as good as it got for the homers.
Kevin Doyle, the Irish under-21 forward, put Cork back in front from close range early in the second half and the game was effectively over as a contest when defender Alan Bennett popped up for City’s third on the hour, finishing off George O’Callaghan’s precise cross.
John O’Flynn made it 4-1 with 12 minutes remaining, reacting quickest to the loose ball after Blues keeper Dan Connor had saved from Doyle, and the Blues’ misery was completed when Reynolds saw red at the death.
Waterford United: Connor, Coleman, Frost (Waters, 80), Breen, Whelahan, Reynolds, Mulcahy, Carey (Sullivan, 68), Clifford (Quitongo, 68), Murphy, Bruton.
Cork City: Devine, Horgan, O’Halloran, Bennett, D. Murray, O’Callaghan, Gamble, Woods, Kearney, O’Flynn (Behan, 88), Doyle.
Referee: D. McKeon (Dublin).
What a win!
We played some great football, especially in the second half.
I thought Doyler and Benno were fantastic. Kearney was also impressive as were Hoggie and Greg.
Georgie and Gamble did well in midfield and Flynny seemed to have more confidence than he has had in recent times.
And not wanting to leave anyone out, Mick, Dan and Billy also did well. It was a great team performance in the face of Waterford's thuggery.
I think we've got to find some way of accomadating both Greg and Danny Murphy in the team as neither deserves to be left on the bench.
As for the support, I know we always have good support in Waterford but I think last night was the best yet. Waterford made sure not to oversell the stand this time and it was a pity that the fans had to be split up but in a way I think it probably helped the players having a large vocal support in the stand and behind the goal. The atmosphere was great, the chants, the smoke, the drums and everything else all added to the occasion and showed up how pathetic Waterford's "support" is!
As for Reynolds, he really is a stupid cnut. Firstly, when City had a corner in the second half he was mouthing off to the fans behind the goal, then he goes and needlessly gets himself sent off and then he tops it all off by sticking his fingers up at the City fans on his way off the pitch.
Dan Connor was also engaging in his usual thuggery but thats to be expected at this stage.

Shel's run in is easy enough.
The only tough game they have is against us, which is at Tolka park.
You'd really expect them to beat the rest easy enough;
Dublin City "Away"
City Home
Longford Away
Waterford Home

Doyler: 9/10 best player in the league . . . You got that one right. What a force to have in the side. We must appreciate what we've got while we still have them. We will look back on nights like this, and talk about their legendary performances. It is a privelege to be a witness when they play like they did last night. :ball:

Era we dont want anyone to take notice, better that way.
Suddenly they look over their shoulders and there is a big City shaped shadow looming over themSoc, you are a poet, boy. Brilliant line.
Devine :6/10 Couldn't do anything about the goal and had one or two dodgy moments, but generally very good.
Greg: 8/10 A few dodgy moments as well, early on in the first half, but was superb from then on. Murphy might be a better left back, but somtimes quality isn't everything. back to stay.
Dan: 7/10 a couple of poor clearances aside, he had a decent game.made some important interceptions.
Benno: 9/10 Will captain city some day. what a star, and he seems to like playing that shower too :)
Hoggie: 7/10 consistent as ever. very effective.
Billy: 6/10 brilliant at times, poor at times. We need to look for a more consistent player for the right wing
Gamble: 9/10 would have been man of the match for the 2nd time in a week but for kearney. He's got exactly what we need in centre-mid, steel, strength and quality.
George: 9/10 rolled up his sleevs, and fought, but still had time for a bit of show-boating near the end, just to rub it in.
Kearney: 9/10 always had the talent, now he's showing strength and intelligence on the ball as well. really turning on the style at the moment.
Doyler: 10/10 there isn't a better player in the league. are you watching brian kerr. thanks Pats :)
O'Flynn: 8/10 confidence is back, form improving. hopefully the old flynny is back to stay.
Doyler: 10/10 there isn't a better player in the league. are you watching brian kerr. thanks Pats :)
Actually Brian wasn't watching. He was at the St Pats v Dublin City game :rolleyes:
looking more possible by the minute. we've got better in each of the last 4 games, and we know from the european game that we can play even better than we did last night. I think we can do it.

Fcuking still can't believe the result,brilliant night overall.Sick as a small hospital this morning but it was definately worth it.Behind the goals for all the city goals and I had to keep looking at the linesman and the ref to make sure they were allowing them.
We we're awsome in the second half and practically lived in their half although we didn't create loads of clear cut chances the ones we did we stuck away and that cnut Connor had to go into his net four times to get the ball.Loved it. :D
Nice one Carey for the first goal,we know you're heart is still with city. ;) :D
And Mr reynolds,ya fcukin dirty piece of sh!t,you really made our night by just being yourself and kissing the waterford crest,what a joke. :The pr!ck should definately be suspened for more games for his stupid gestures at the end of the game after being sent off. :mad:
