no worries - just on the off chance!
Shels 3 up at ht v Newbridge. 2 for Mulhall and 1 for Bermo.
I fully expect Bohs now to go and knock a couple of goals in as we've just put our less than trusty sub keeper in and thats putting it nicely. Town are after making 8 subs in total for second half with 2 names I'm not familiar with, Kevin Lynch and Stephen McCrossan.
McCrossan was with Monaghan for the past couple of years. Don't know who Lynch is nor Sean Skelly who also came on.
Weeve McCrossan was with us for last 3 seasons.
I'm assuming Sean Skelly should be Austin Skelly. But then again I could be wrong!
1-1 Traynor for Bohs
1-1 Stephen Traynor for Bohs
One sub brought on for Bohs, Ryan McEvoy who was on loan with us last season.
FT Bohs 1-1 Longford Town
ill take that for the first game of the season and such a young team.
Another useful work out, by the sounds of it Bohs had the better of it but we seem to be pretty solid in pre season thus far.
was at the game, town looked good in the first half but in the second they looked to tire a bit, bohs deserved the goal. free header from a corner! good work out for both teams id imagine.
Making 8 changes at half time would always disrupt things a bit but there's lots to be pleased with from our friendlies.
Howsyourtouch, was that Sean Skelly a mis-print or is he another trialist? How'd the two other trialists play?
Longfords tiny little left winger looked decent in the first half and made their goal. Fagan looked outstanding for us.
Institue 0-7 Derry, McDaid (4), Lafferty, Molloy and McGlynn scored. Good run out for Derry against an understrength Insitute team. Derry also had a weakened team with P McElehenney, S McElehenny, McClean, Zayed and Deery sitting in the stands. McCallion and McGlynn were also only 2nd half subs.
Jacques Morley. He's looked lively in all our games so far by all accounts. Fagan is a pretty experienced player at this stage he should do well for ye.Quote:

If anyones interested, the Shels team for the game against Newbridge tonight was:
Delany
Colm James Andy Boyle Dave McGill Baz Clancy
Chris Mulhall John Sullivan Kevin Dawson Brendan McGill
Karl Bermingham Tiarnan Mulvenna
Ray Scully, Gareth Kenna, Philly Hughes, Conan Byrne, David Cassidy, Sean Byrne, Paul Skinner, Dinny Corcoran and Alan O'Kane came on.
Garvan is a center half by trade. Played all the U20s games pushing between center half and center mid. Scully saw most of the games as he was assessing Paugie for the UEFA B License so he's been a long time admirer.Quote:

Fagan looked a very good player for Bohs (Longford number nine also very lively) and it will have done some of the younger players no harm to get a run. Mid table obscurity looking realistic !Quote:

Longfords 9 was Don Cowan, I thought Forrester on the right looked decent enough for Bohs, Fagan is a really good signing
Are Mervue United in the Algarve on pre-season or is it some kind of a sick joke?
"Mervue United play local Portuguese side, Quarteirense, tonight at 9pm before wrapping up their 5day pre-season training in the Algarve"
No they are actually over there there was pictures of them in their camp posted on twitter I didnt know they were playing any games though......that must be a pricey old tripQuote:

Nothing sick about it I'm sure they can afford it they're quite a well run club by all accounts. They don't pay their players or they pay very little so treating them well is good if they can afford it. Plenty of GAA clubs do it.
Did they get into Europe by default?Quote:

They must be making a bit off those cake sales and dinner dances. Genuinely thought it was a **** take...Quote:

They went last season too. Not sure about this year but last time I'm nearly sure the players part funded the trip themselves and sold club lotto's etc to cover costs.
Tonight:
Glenavon vs Galway Utd
Mourneview Park
KO: 7.45
How did McEvoy do last season? Has looked very impressive whenever Ive seen him.Quote:
