for the last 25 mins i should have but if turner was not playing that day we would have won 3-1 possibly more and we all be raving that there was a new horizon comin. the last 25 mins i still believe were down to a nieve cook who thought they would keep scoring and when went to 3-3 couldnt go defensive and ulitmatially cost us the game. hopefully cook will have learned a valuable lesson
If's and but's. If we had Peers, if they didn't have Turner. Oh, but they did......Quote:

But we live with it and move on.
My team for tonight
Brush
Keane - Martin - Ventre - Kendricks
Morrison - Doyle - Boco- McGrath
Blinkhorn - Raf
Bench:Conor,Ryan,Turner, Kizzy,Marshall,Cash, Kelly
Boco will give us that bit of pace and energy to chase the game and always a problem for defences when running at them.
Morriosn maybe contentious but in the last 2 home games he has improved and watch when he gets the ball agaisnt Derry, last time 2-3 players were on him and this leaves gaps so lets hope Cookie spots this.
Is it me or has nayone else noticed Brushy is a bit susceptiple from distance, I mean as reaction saves go there none better but from distance sems to be abut weaker (Dundalk, Vlazznia twice)
I'd put Doyle on the wing, although you probably meant that Alan! I'd then have the following:Quote:

Maybe O'Grady does need a rest but McGrath must prove his worth now because he let us down the last day in my eyes. Even more so than Conor.
As for Brush, I can see your point but I'd say we allow teams to get shots in from distance more than any team in the league so it follows that he might let in a few more. We have to close down much earlier.
I'd hate to be critical of Brushy as he saves us so often. The game in the league v Bohs in Dalymount we could have been trounced by six or seven were it not for him.
Boco is on international duty and O'Grady is injured according to the star.
I see on the club website, Peers is fighting to be fit for this evening's game....
Benin are playing a friendly against Gabon today alright...I assumed we wouldn't have released him for a meaningless friendly when we're in the middle of crucial games though. Disappointing if true.Quote:

7.45pm kick off
big loss with boco out, defence probably keane, ventre, camano, kendrick now.
think the criticism of ogrady is harsh, imo turner done nothing all game until he scored his 2nd. conor nicked the ball off him loads of times and kept him quiet for most of the game.
hopefully the two boys up top can continue scoring
Missing Boco is a huge loss.
But we could sneak this 2-1.
I still think we have enough quality to get out of the trouble we are in,
infact i think we are only short 1 or 2 players in crucial areas to be a top side
Im sure everyone in the squad will have learned from the mistakes made over the last while and move on up the table
We need a little bit of luck to go our way and the lads to believe in themselves and stay focused for 90 minutes.
Keep the faith
Not hopeful for this one. Few tough games coming up, we need to start grinding out results.
8pm would suit me better. Can you please change it.Quote:

Tbh I will be disappointed with anything less than a win, as we are at home to a side with only one point form their last 5 games, but for some reason I can see it ending in a draw.
getting closer to kick off, cant wait now, nothing like a midweek game to try and evenge for saturday night. im sure the players are better off playing games to try and sort it out than training.
we'll win tonight
