“I don’t think it was to bad a performance. The goal we conceded was rather silly. The ball was knocked in and it was not cleared. Fair play to Jason Byrne for the manner in which he took the goal but he got far to much space.
“Dan Connor was superb for us tonight, he really was. We had chances during the course of the game but unfortunately we just could not take them. Shelbourne are a good side and we must take the positive approach by remembering that we created quiet a few good chances against them and that’s good.
“On another night we possibly would have put those chances away but sadly on this occasion it was not to be. It is vital now that the boy’s settle during the course of the coming week and be mentally prepared for the game with Derry City, something I am sure they will do. We need a win against Derry just to get out spirit back if anything. As I said we did not play badly here tonight and I have no doubt that the lad’s will go out with all guns blazing at our place next Friday’’.
When McGrath gets drunk he's drunk for weeks, if not months. He doesn't go on one nighters and suddenly turn up for work the next morning.
