It was an early sign of where our season was to end up going. No team with genuine title aspirations should be getting beaten 4:0 by a team in the division below - friendly or not, away or not. Hence why i drew a parallel with Bohs low score at home against a team much, much weaker than Dundalk.

Now who's for No.6 then.....?

As they say in all the best pub conversations, everything's relative...
I'm just pleased that, even a year on, my taking up the point along with a whole four other people has allowed you to take some comfort from being tanked by First Division opposition. :p
I may be wrong, and there's always the cup, but I don't think anyone from Bohs will be posting in February 2009 about how we miraculously turned over Monaghan in 2008.

Im saying nothing, i remember 4/5 years ago getting beat by Londonderry Institute in a pre-season friendly, dont want to tempt fate as we play them tomorrow night again. By far a bigger humiliation than the thumping by Dundalk......

Im in agreement with Steve though, friendly results may not be taken too seriously but from past experience they can show potential or indeed a lack of it...btw that year we were beaten by Stute was also one i dont want to remember too well.

Finally a UCD fan I agree with :D

Very valid point though, surely Dessie Bryne is a left back. Hes just a hoofer.

Also where is Ndo these days?

Heard Derry were really good last night, Salmon had a good game upfront and Grey showed up really well last night as well. Was anybody else at the match. Heard tousand Derry fans showed up and Kenny got a great reception.

An account of the game and a small anecdote from last night's game courtesty of BohSelecta:

Quote:

I went up the road to this - Nil apiece. Cork looked not that good, actually, especially when you consider that their starting front six was Behan, Mooney, Kearney, Gamble, Healy and O'Callaghan. Shels well worth their draw and it wasn't a bad night out at all, especially when Keely, having watched a Cork sub sky the ball over the bar, turned to the Corkies and shouted

"He should be playing for the GAA team you don't have"

:D

Shels were the better team last night. 0-0 it ended but for about the first 60 minutes Shels were the better team and also had the best chance of the match. Changing our whole team turned the game into a bit of a mess but we still had chances in the last 30mins.
Any Cork fan that was there care to comment on the football??

Even if Cork claim their best eleven were not trying !! it's still great to see a Shels team hold their own with the current cup winners and all their 'rich' stars...

Roll on March 7th

Tbh I thought we were comfortably on top in the first half. Created a few chances, some good moves, but very little end product. Mooney have a few chances he will hopefully bury with a few more games under his belt

Thought ye defended well and were well up for it as well as having a few chances on the break in that half. Bisto(??) should have done better.

Ye were on top for a good bit of the second half alright, but for the last 25 minutes or so I couldn't name half our players so tbh wasn't too bothered about the football. None of them bar Billy and Mick will be anywhere near the team.

Was a good work out for us, and ye didn't hold back which is great for the lads so early. We have a lot to work on but I thought it was positive enough for us with Gamble looking especially good and the players looking fitter than they have this early in the season for a while.

Ye look a strong,fit well drilled outfit with a couple of skillful players. I'd expect ye to do well this year, if ye keep improving on a preseason game like you'd expect.

I couldnt name half our starting eleven!! nevermind the second eleven who finished the game :)

Your subs didnt come off that quick either! Murray was on for a good 80 minutes I thought. Devine played the full 90 too. I'm not sure where Keely got the players from! but we finished with a few trial players and still looked ok.

Kearney is one amazing piece of muck by the way!! easily the worst player on the pitch last night.

Bisto is Anto Flood. My tip for top scorer in the First Division this year, assuming he's not snapped up by a premier club at some point.

:D A very strong 11 started for us alright, but we werent very interested in getting physical. When ye starting putting in the hard tackles we stood off a bit, fear of injury so early I guess.

For us I think it was more about getting the first touch working,a dn a bit of movement and interplay going which happened.

For ye, I guess a lot of them would have been playing to impress if ye didnt know them. Ye can only be pleased with that.

Yeah the second batch were a bit later alright, not that late though.

The last few minutes were a bit of an all out, underage like, game. Players playing for contracts, flying in to tackles and the like.
