Must be one of the new recruits maybe:D, had ye full team out on tuesday against the boro spud.
We played the boro saturday,we had a strong team out yes but still missing 4 very good players,we were bit weak up front butler was on his own with the formation we started off with,if we had 1 of the lads who were missing.. up front with butts would of helped us alot. :ball:Quote:

No complaints, or excuses here lads, we were well beaten. 2 down before we even got started and had to take drastic step of taking off a player and bringing in Declan Considine to steady the midfield, ten minutes before half time, which he did well.
At 2-1 down we rallied a little, even hitting the bar, but in truth Coonagh always looked like they could up a gear and so they did killing off the game with twenty to go.
Without a doubt our worst performance so far and I myself was very poor on the night. But we'll pick ourselves up and get ready for Holycross Tuesday.
In fairness to the lads we've played three very good teams and hopefully our next few games might see us get that first win.
Well done Coonagh. Looking strong again and no doubt you'll get a run going after this result.
And thanks for the compliment on our new gear Larry. Fair play to the Club for supplying us with a top class gear for the season and now we just need to do it justice!!
yeah saturday i meant to say, interesting yer boss went for 5 in midfield with butts up front on his own. Did it work at all or did ye change it during the match. long shift up front by yourself no matter how good a player is.Quote:

Dont underestimate them. They still have 8 players who were in the squad promoted to 1A in 05/06 and finished 3rd in 1A 06/07.Quote:

That, and not being able to field their main starting 11 for a lot of matches (right full v Holycross was well into his forties).
Larry, Boro were good up front, Thomas Mc ( I think is his name) is a fine player. They are also strong at the back, quite physical and good in the air. The right winger is quick.Quote:

From reading the 1A thread last season though they were doing fine until Xmas and then went into freefall after a few players left and they havent come back from what I read on here. All in takes is 2 or 3 vital players to leave to make a huge difference to a team.Quote:
