Steaua v Shels 2nd Leg Official Thread

[pete]

Put your stuff here...

[crc]

Come on Shels!! Keep it tight and your chance will come along.

I'll be watching on Romanian International TV in France!

[TheOwl]

Really I hope I'm wrong but I reckon we will struggle tonight my prediction is 2-0 or 3-0 for Steaua.

Our best chance could be going into the final 15 mins or so 1-0 or 2-1 down. Then Steaua will have a decision to make as to whether they should try hold onto their lead.

[swinfordfc]

sorry lads 2-0 to steau

[holidaysong]

MAy the force be with ye.. :)

[sligoman]

Red Card-Dave Rogers is off

[Poor Student]

Red Card-Dave Rogers is off

Ah crap. What did he do?

Steaua to win in that case. :(

[dynamo kerry]

your having a laugh

[sligoman]

Alan Moore just yellow carded. He misses Rosenborg game if Shels get that far :(

[shedite]

gone after 5mns - why???

[Poor Student]

Poor discipline or necessary evil? :confused:

[RonnieB]

very dodgy decision.

[sligoman]

Ah crap. What did he do?

Steaua to win in that case. :(

Him and Dica(spelling?) had a bust up,off the ball incident. I've just found out that Dica was sent off too so both teams are down to 10 men. The ref didn't see it and he had to go to the linesman about it and he then decided to sent both off, very poor decision :mad:

[shedite]

Dave Rodgers - join the Longford grop of Irish embarassments in europe :mad:

[exile]

your man deca sent off too ? :confused:

[Poor Student]

That's a bit better then. What position is your man Dica?

[RonnieB]

seems so! they showed a red card against his name then it disapeared and I presumed he was still on the pitch... Love to hear the refs view of it after the game and why he sent both off

[sligoman]

Shelbourne nearly scored, cleared off the line.

[Poor Student]

Do Steaua have a big pitch? I'd imagine it will suit them as they'll be the possession team and be spreading the ball.

Damn RTE, again this is not on the internet. :mad:

[sligoman]

Do Steaua have a big pitch? I'd imagine it will suit them as they'll be the possession team and be spreading the ball.

Yeah, big pitch alright. Attendance is 8,000 with a small minority of them Shels fans. Stadium holds 28,000 so attendance is very poor

[Poor Student]

At least a small advantage lies in that Shels can afford to concede on goal as if they score an away goal will send them through, whereas Steaua cannot afford to concede.

[sligoman]

1-0 to Steua :(. 19 mins gone.

[bigmac]

can't believe some radio station doesn't have it - suppose with it on tv there's no point really.

[Stanley Chan]

Is it on any channel on sky?

C'mon Shels, dig in and get that vital away goal!!

[sligoman]

C'mon Shels, dig in and get that vital away goal!!

2-0 now. Terrible clearance by Crawley

[ger121]

Steaua cutting them apart now. They need Ndo and Hoolihan on asap coz they're creating nothing.

[ger121]

2-1 Byrne

[shedite]

Bact to the start so. Score one and they're through

[dancinpants]

Thats a bit better!!! ;)

[sligoman]

2-1 Byrne

Yep 2-1. Steau keeper should of saved that. Come on Shels-ye can do it!

[dynamo kerry]

c/mon shels. this can definitely be done. send on hooohan at half time

[sligoman]

2-1. Half time now!

[Buller]

Dolan; "its been a rollercoster ride of a first half" indeed!!! c'mon shels...

[Stanley Chan]

Is it on any tv channel?

[RonnieB]

aye rte2

[sligoman]

Is it on any tv channel?

Just RTE2 afaik

[ger121]

Strange half, Steaua look very strong going forward but when Shels get forward Steaua also look poor at the back. There's more goals in this game and it would not surprise me if Shels got another. The problem is I can see Steaua scoring again too. Very like the Shels/Hajuk away game last year.

[holidaysong]

Yeah it is very similar to the Shels/Hadjuk away match last year. They CANNOT allow them to score again. David Crawley's clearance was absolutely terrible! Where is that lad from...? :rolleyes: ;)

[thejollyrodger]

good point on the telly. any time shels put the ball in the peno area Steaua didnt deal with it very well. we can defintely score again but im not sure if we can stop more goals from going in

[exiled_gufc_fan]

[sligoman]

send on hooohan at half time

Fenlon has said that he is only fit enough to play for the last 20 minutes or so, so I dont think he'll be on too early

[macdermesser]

can't believe some radio station doesn't have it - suppose with it on tv there's no point really.

its on the steau page ... but in romanian obviously :o

[sligoman]

http://www.steauafc.com/nou/index.php?cat=main

Is that radio or tv? :confused:

[sligoman]

Shels really under pressure now, Steua are really attacking them. Curtis Fleming coming on for Crawley now

[sligoman]

3-1, Delaney made a massive mistake. He came out to clear the ball and slipped and missed it and it came to a Steua player and he hit it into an empty net. Shels are out now IMO :(

[dancinpants]

They can't let there heads drop now...otherwise they could get seriously spanked.

[Troy.McClure]

Ah cr@p, good night Shelbourne :(

[dancinpants]

Lads there's still 30mins to go!! If they grab a second in the next 15mins or so anything can happen.

[sligoman]

Hoolahan about to come on

[sligoman]

Lads there's still 30mins to go!! If they grab a second in the next 15mins or so anything can happen.

Are you watching the match though? They are'nt really attacking much. Maybe with Hoolahan on now they can do something, he's replaced Alan Moore
