Ramblers were shafted tonight by the one and only Mr. Jim O'Neill. Hill should not have been sent off, full stop. Vetinari ( my friend) might not like this , but this guy is the Elton John of EL refereeing. I'm just sick of that lad. Ramblers should have benn three up in the first ten minutes. Go on O'Leary,:D Cronin was really fired up for the game. A draw would have been a fair result. Cobh's subs looked really young. What about Rodger's Beckham like goal ;) ( Would'nt have happened only Cobh were going flat out for a goal, for a draw( 2-0 down) (10 v 11))):confused:
