Good Luck Bohs though, I'll be shouting for them tomorrow.

Bohs don't need to hit them on the break. All they need to do is sit back and defend which Fenlon in charge is very likely.

Home team in Uefa Champions League first leg attacks more and has more clear cut chances and misses them against away side shocker!!!

Salzburg are better than Bohs but its not a giant leap between each side. A few Bohs players would be well at home in the Salzburg team I reckon.

I'm so nervous right now.

i thought the performance in Salzburg was so mature and professional that it gives us a great chance to put one over RBS tomorrow. Sure, we gave away chances but nothing unexpected - Salzburg are a good team with good players, they were bound to create a few decent chances. But they didnt take them. We took ours and we had almost equal possession. Tomorrow is a different kettle of fish - playing on a grass pitch, missing two of their key players from the last game and in front of a hostile partisan crowd. (NBB have been drinking lemon and honey all week in preperation :D )

I read their coaches comments on extratime.ie and he is arrogantly dismissing our chances again, already. I think he is playing a dangerous game and hopefully he will be eating his words tomorrow evening.

Fenlon is a good coach and will have the team well drilled again for tomorrow. Fenlon's Shels team beat Hajduk Split 2-0 at home a few year back after losing 3-2 in Croatia. I trust him to get the same performance out of this (arguably a lot better) Bohs team.

It could yet go either way but i am slightly more than hopeful of progression.

CMON BOHS!!!

I saw that. It must be a positive for Bohs, hopefully anyway.

The quote attributed to him on extratime is:

Quote:

Speaking through an interpreter, he said: "We respect all opponents but we really need to come away with a win. In the last game Bohemians played very well but we had a lot of chances and we will be looking to take up all the chances that we missed in that game. Salzburg is a very good team, as are Bohemians, but I very much expect that we will come out on top. When you see the chances that we gave away and all the mistakes that we made, of course it was 1-1, but we need to bring the chances in and win in the second leg."

Dunno how anyone could find fault with that tbh.

according to the reporter, Mr. Stevens poured scorn over our chances.

Poured scorn goddammit! :mad:

;)

Stevens expressed concerns over the surface at Dalymount, which he said was "curved" and much different "to the flat fields we are used to in Austria"

You gotta love that.. Although, he didn't say 'Bent' to his credit..

No seriously, Bohs sit back at as rule but are usually quite clinical and percise when they do go forward that I see them scoring a goal.. And as I see Red Bull also scoring we could be looking at Penos...

Bohs - Derry being replayed on Setanta now, for any night-owls in need of a LOI fix.

I hasten to add, I'm not actually watching it. Beer, custard creams and Mock the Week are more adequate 2am fare.

What brand are the custard creams? I fancied some earlier but Tesco only had own-brand ones and I didn't like the look of them. Although how anyone can eat them without tea is beyond me.

They should put First Division games on at 3 a.m. with ambient music in the background. Could become a cult hit.

"Lidl Custard Cream Biscuits." Yes, most were broken, and yes, I live like the student I recently was. To sample them with Dutch Gold is to be living on the bohemian edge of life.

Agree with the FD 3am idea, although I might substitite the music for excitable Japanese commentary. Now, that would be a cult hit.

And some "Banzai" style betting! Only problem is I would never get any sleep just waiting to see us.
