Have to say I think he's really enjoying himself.
We tend to forget he's just a young lad up from the U-21's and having scored 2 goals in 2 games he must be on air - particularly tonight's hooser.
I thought he'd do a lap of honer when he was being substituted - brilliant.
The Shels players must have been really pi$$ed with him, winding the fans up etc.
Fair play to him.
He has a brilliant record for the U-21's and he's doing alright for the seniors ;) .
S. Ashton must be beaming with pride.

I dunno Adam, I didnt think that he played very well in a lot of respects. He had no first touch tonight, infact everything that went to his feet just bounced away. His heading though I thought was very good and he layed off some nice balls and as usual his committment to go in where it hurts was there (great to see him squaring up to Honker in the 1st half). I still think that he can improve and get a bit more involved in the game when he isnt getting service, but the guy knows how to finish! Id rather have a striker playing bad and scoring, than play well and not. He's really laying down the marker to O'Flynn now though, if he keeps on scoring form than JOF will find it hard to get back in! :)

I'd agree with that up until the scored the goal .... after that he really picked up, obviously more confident after scoring. The guy is in two games and scoring twice will do his confidence the world of good. If he keeps this up, and gets match fit, then i'd say the guy will be tearing the place up every week.
Remarkable improvement after the goal ..... handled it alot better fair play to him.

Behan was fairly crap until the goal I thought and not a patch on Doyler for skill and making runs with the ball but another wonder goal will only add to his growing confidence and he will only get better and better hopefully and prove the doubters wrong. :)
Behan IS crap but hard to argue with 2 goals in 2 games.
He was milking the crowd big time when substituted.

anyone who's watched denis at under 21 level knows what a fantastic talent he is. as for last nights goal, you wontsee better from anyone in the league this season. and as for milking the applause, fair play, he deserved it :)

Behan IS crap
That's rubbish, when he puts his mind to it he's far from 'crap'

Granted i only saw the u-21 semi & final (suppose they would be the better quality opposition though) last season & Shane Long impressed me a lot more than Behan.

Insane talk, wtf about the goals from Alan Murphy the first week? That goal against Waterford was a fluke anyway.

Wow you lot got a home draw with a penniless club who had to get almost an entire new squad for this season...for your small club, I guess thats a big deal to you....but it's good to see that you can retain a sense of humour during your season long hopeless fight against relegation....fair play to you....:D
wheres your Dolan gone?
Who? Is that the guy who LOVES SPA?
Rico's the MAN!.....:D

Isn't it brilliant to see players coming through from our under age teams.

Greg,
Behan,
Lordan,
Hoggie,
McNulty,
Long.
Best club in the country by a mile ......... and I'm not a bit biased ;) :D

3 in 3 for Behan,great goalscoring form.He's gonna be hard to move from the side at the moment flynny will have to wait for his chance when he's fit along with Fenn,because Doyler and Behan are def the first choice strikers at the mo. :ball:
