Murphy's a pro at rolling around with his hands on his face when he's been barely touched, goes out of his way everytime to get other players sent off. Shels player barely touched Anto "big girls blouse" Murphy.
Good oul Philly !!
Get in!!!
Comical defending there from Pats but Shels deserved that goal. Will be an interesting finish now
Pats have done what Rovers did against Bohs the other week. Come out after half time thinking they had the game won and they haven't been able to match the other team's intensity despite having an extra man.
Excellent from Paiso.
Shels coming home with a wet sail .
Da silva on for cheesesteak.
4 min injury time
Fair play to Shels,stuck to the task well :D
All over.1-1. See Ye on Monday in Inchicore.
Well done Shels with 10 men for over half the game.
Great second half.
No bottle tonight.
Great game.
That performance should give Shels the boost they need for the league regardless of how the replay goes. Should take care of Harps and Salthill and then a draw would do against Cork wouldn't it (in terms of winning the league)?
Not if Monaghan beat Limerick and Athlone
Heroic performance from 10 against 12. That was probably Collie's biggest contribution since joining the club. Waste of oxygen.
What was the attendance there tonight?
EDIT: just saw 2,538 official on Extratime. Which isn't overly amazing given the rivalry and the occasion.
2538, close enough to most peoples predictions.
Arse. Murphy was climbing all over Collie like some kind of monkey then the ponce hits the deck and starts simulating. Assh0le deserved a boot up the hole (not in the head) for cheating. Galling to see James sent off when there should have been a free in his favour.
T'was the way i seen it btbw.Is there a vid of it ?? Have a look again,i defo thought it was a straight red anyway.Regardless of what happened leading up to it,he had intent when he lashed out when they tangled on the ground.
He clearly had a couple of goes in the general direction of his face. Amazing anybody would say he didn't deserve to be sent off.
From what I remember Murphy hopped up on Calamity's back and crashed down on top of him. Then he wouldn't move off him. Jesus, yeah, if he lashed out (and that wasn't clear from where I was sitting) it's a card, but given how obvious Murphy's foul and his play acting was, James was definitely at least as sinned against as sinning. Yellow card would have been a better call.
Anyway, I'm not that adept at reading 'intent' so maybe James intended to kick him in the face. Trouble is, I don't know if a ref can be any better at reading intent than I am. Still a straight red for Collie covered up the fact that he made a total blunder in not calling for a free against Pat's for Murphy's acrobatic assault on James. He could just as easily have booked Murphy.
Does it make that much difference anyway? I just want to get back to the league with David Cassidy and Philly Hughes uninjured.
Just had a look at the thing on RTE player. Not a chance that it was a fair sending off. Murphy did a kung fu move up on his back and there is zero lashing out and absolutely no contact by James in response. Murphy grabs his face like a little girl - shameful.
Playing against pansies like that used to drive me mental. James may have a lot of faults but he is not a dirty player.
Looked like it. Very impressed with the lads tonight. Dying for Monday to come already. Gonna be class.
On the sending off; I would have sent him off if I was the ref, but I had the benefit of a digibox and I rewound it and on several viewings I would have reversed the decision.
Buttimer didn't have that option. Murphy was all over James when that ball came in and it was definitely a free to us. But these things happen. I wasn't at all bitter about the red to be fair. I knew AM would send them out all guns blazing iun the second half. Cheesesteak was great as well tonight. I know I have been critical of him after the debacle v Sheriff, but he's shut me up tonight. Gonna be a great month.
Argh damn Pats as my tasty double with Bristol Rovers implodes. Pats should have had this game wrapped up early in the second half, my god such an effort from them, and what was North doing out on wing!!!!A lot of passengers on the pats team (mcfaul, murphy) and kavangh would be some player if he had an end project. Man how bad have Pats ended up since i have seen them at start of season.:mad:
I didnt see the last 20 mins but well done Shels.
Good game and huge occassion for Shels, Pats will definitely win the replay though
I wouldn't say huge occasion for us. If anything Pats were the side that looked nervous last night. Our main focus is the league whereas Pats season is sort of resting on Monday night now.
I thought we deserved a draw out of the game and was very pleased with how we reacted to going a goal and a man down. I haven't seen any replays but my initial reaction was that it deserved a red.
I reckon Pats will beat us on Monday but we might as well give it a go anyway.
Are rte gona show Mondays replay?
looks like a decent crowd in Dayler.
don't agree with Rico that that was a penalty though. His hand was by his side, it wasn't sticking out
