Just think back to the home game versus Drogheda Galway Girl ;)
Amazing stuff last night.
2 goals out of nowhere....largely thanks to their keeper.
Having said that we deserved nothing out of the game.gufct had the tinted glasses on again it seems.
Rogers was outstanding and that's why we weren't 4/5 -0 down come the end.
O Flynn's elbow on your man was downright stupid.It ensured we effectively had no strikers at all for the 2nd half.You could sense their goal coming....we stayed behind the ball for the enitire 2nd half and something was bound to give.
The positive is that will be a big confidence boost and hopefully the kickstart for us getting away from the relegation zone.
Yes. sure didn't they show the goals from the Helsibourgs (spelling??) game on both TV3 and RTE news last week. and that was within a shorter time frame. fair enough if they couldn't be bothered but to say they didn't have time doesn't hold water.Quote:

They had the goals from the UCD game on their news programme the last week I know its a bit closer to get the tape to the but that was within an hour of the final whistle been blown! Id say it could be down to whoever records the game though in fairness
Tinted Glasses .We get a draw with 10 men away against the runaway league leaders after being 2 nil down and your still not happy.:rolleyes:
i assume (and feel free to shoot me down if ye think that i'm wrong) that we are past the days of driving a VHS tape to the studio to put it into the video machine and show the highlights.Quote:

personally i stayed up well past bedtime hoping to see the highlights and was disappointed when they weren't on. i was delighted when i saw the result on aertel and wanted to see the goals.
In fairness he didn't say he wasn't happy. Just pointed out that ye didn't deserve anything from the game.Quote:

It might not be deserved, but show me one fan who is not delighted with the point? 2 completely different things
perhaps just plain obvious that it was 2 old time united boys that got us out of jail. Not the daft signings that tcs nearest and dearest have been monitoring, signing, and letting loose on an unsuspecting too bloody nice galway public
Crucial point Geezer a point that has gone completely unnoticed in fact. I hope that these lads can rub off the new boys. I think that the new boys will get into it once we start winning again and it would be good to see them earn their stripes.
Well thats a joke with most posters on here lambasting Murphs for his performances this season. Rogers,Fitzgerald,Lester,Alan Keane & O'Halloran worked their asses off last night to get a result.Its very easy for people to put up stupid posts when they werent even at the game.Quote:

He was unlucky with injuries to Armstrong and Mensah so we'll never know about them, and O'Halloran is doing a job in defence and midfield, he is obviously a short-term solution.
New boys have hit 12 league goals, the old brigade 6 . . what is your point again?
I don't think Fagan or James were daft signings either, maybe letting James go to Longford was daft,why should we help improve the squad of fellow relegation rivals? Fagan has impressed me at times. He's not exactly setting the league alight but he's not too bad either. One or two players who were kept on last season have proven to be daft signings.
Very true Saigon, and not keeping others were also head-scratchers. Philip Reilly better than Nigel Keady? Barry Moran better than David O'Dowd? Dave Cooke better than, well, anyone?
I didnt lambast Murph in fact I said he started the season quite well. Yes he has tailed off recently but what player doesnt. I just think that it is an interesting point that it happened to be 2 players from last season that done the business on Monday night nothing wrong with that. It was a general comment not based on the match on Moday night.Quote:

do say stupid things on this from time to time. But I do believe TC and his assistant have lost the plot, is a rookie and the players themselves will be the ones to come up trumps. Still i do very much hope he proves me wrong. I do think we will stay up, and in fairness to tc he is learning harsh lessons at GUFC i wish he would learn them at Kilkenny, Limerick with a 1st division team. I would sincerely doubt he is a fenlon,kenny in the making and I would like to see us cut our ties with him at seasons end. To be fair as well you couldnt argue much if we achieve the original objective to stay up and the MGMT decide to retain his services. Its just my opinion im a footie fan and results will change opinions not blind loyalty
