Not just supporting Roddy for the obvious reasons, but I have to say I agreed with the note of caution he was sounding at half time. eL hater? Did you notice that he kept using the words "us" and "we" in relation to Shels? Struck me as very odd, that.

I personally felt Shels were going to concede in exactly the same circumstances that killed Bohs off against Rosenborg last year; players trying to work one-twos, underhitting the pass and then haring forward, thus taking two Shels players out of the game and leaving themselves vulnerable to a counter-attack. Fortuantely, they copped on and stopped doing it in the second half.

RTE always do better live coverage than TV3 but not hard.

Main problem last night was George Hamilton left on his own with no co-commentator to take over when George about to talk sh!te.

Could see Dolan straining at the leash to have a rant :D

And tonight was no exception, very professional except for George Hamiltons numerous guffs. 1) Said Shels were 11 pts clear in the league 2) Called Ollie Cahill, Pat Fenlon 3) and called Pat Fenlon, Fat Penlon :rolleyes: :D 4) Worst of all he used the expression danger here when Split were closing in on goal. did he want to jinx it or what?????
