Chance for us to get over the horror show last week and nothing less than a win is good enough imo.
With the squad we have we should be doing better than drawing with PAts from 2-1 and losing to Bohs from 2-0.
We need to be winning matches against title rvals or we risk another year of being there or there abouts in a league where no one pushes on....rant over.
Another week where every match is impoertant in this crazy league.
I think you're being slightly demanding with that. A draw would hardly be a surprise, though I do think you'll win.Quote:

We need to be take it to teams we are so passive at the start of games go for the throat attack attack attack, leave Daniel on the bench please, he is tired and play the young fellas.
Be interesting to watch the midfield battle in the Shamrocks v Shelbourne game on tv. Hope for a capacity crowd and an entertaining match.
The first goal will be vital in the game in Galway (hopefully it is the home size). The recent rain should help with the condition of the pitches which I am sure are not that bad really. Crowds should be up on last Friday with the decent weather today.
Bray 2 up after 11 against Kerry. Kerry have made 3 subs in 16, 17 and 20 min.
That's bizarre. Can't remember ever seeing anything like that. Has to be a mix of injury and tactical you'd imagine?
Rovers take the lead in the live game. Kearns really won't be happy with that - close to howler territory
Didnt see any deflection poor.
Cobh far too good for us in the first half.....
Rovers should have been 2 up, up the other end 1-1. Shels had been miles off it. Game on now.
Pretty much damage limitation already by that stage - the way Kerry have been playing in recent games, if the new squad is falling flat, might as well go back to the local lads.Quote:

Dyer is some signing.

Did the players remember how to celebrate?Quote:

Rovers poor again. Best squad I the league and I doubt I'd get much argument, underachieving big time.
An entertaining game, but a lot of basic errors for the last two champions I thought, from Kearns for the opening goal to the daft backpass to let Mipo in in the 90th. Caffrey should have buried his second half chance and asked questions later (was there a handball shout when the ball was on the ground? Looked it, but no real call for it) and Kearns also got away with a big fumble in the first half.Quote:

Love the drone shots of the match on VM.
Shocking again from rovers. We can kid ourselves but it's just not good enough.
Club with the biggest budget by miles looking very average. It would be in.possible to have this squad not tipping around the top of this division. 2 points from 3 matches. I'm gutted but not surprised
If anything sums up the abject level of performance from this group it is that 7th place is 3 points off the top.
Something wrong for this group to be so bad
....another corner and back on track... 3 points off the top! 20.20, 20. 19, 19, 17,16 - GLITWQuote:
