Countless teams have found it easy to counteract us at this level it's not hard when we do the same thing over and over and over again with no results at all.Quote:

It was fustrating to watch that's for sure , it's gas reading people's comments we have gone from being top 4 contenders to relegation candidates in one bad performance at the start of the season . We just gave the league champions a very good game 3 days ago taught some of them looked tired and flat tonight for some reason which was a real shame considering that was a good crowd for a Monday night and it would have been great to keep the momentum going at home with a 2pm kick off to Finn harps next Saturday will we get 1k at it after tonight. Bohs were the better team overall but we had enough chances to score , goalkeeper motm must have been for his first half display as he had **** all to do second half . Lee j poor Duggan shocker can't remember him being as bad , ogbene plenty of power and pace lacks end product which is why he struggled to get his place in corks team week in week out last season .
It was one bad result.
After a great night against Sligo and a decent night against Dundalk.
Frustrating to watch, but at least there is another home game to get over it. Unfortunately, it's against Harps, whose manager completely out-managed ours two seasons ago. And we still have the same two wingers for him to defend wide against and deep too.
I think it is the contrast from Friday to tonight that is really bothering people that and the fact that like our play tonight its so utterly predicated with us to do this kinda thing. Doesnt mean anything in terms of the season but the chance to have a serious buzz going into Saturday lost.
Feel way more meh today.
Just typical.
Everyone's knows the problems.
There are some really, really, good, players in that squad. And a few absolute charlatans.
We are spending at least twice what bohs are spending.
It's a results business at the end of the day. Good performance in oriel my hole. Played 3 Points 3 that's what matters.
Another big game now Saturday. Knock a 1 off the front of the 1700 I'd say....
Fcuk lads we weren't that bad bar some very sloppy passing 2nd half, it was 2 mistakes that cost us the goal. Its only the 3rd game for a newly promoted team, we had an off night bohs keeper had a great night but we need to cut out the stupidity of playing the ball across our own goal.
Personally think Supple is being made out to be way better than he actually was.
Definitely. He was decent and pulled off some good saves but in the second half bar maybe one chance when mulhall just came on he actually had nothing really to do. His defence did all the hard work.Quote:

As do I but he did keep them in the game with a few great saves. Strange he got motm since he did nothing 2nd half. Anyway hopefully 3pts v harps on SaturdayQuote:

Fans need to get over the fact that we're not in the first division anymore. We will loose plenty of games this year and if we start getting on the backs of players we'll struggle.
Supple was excellent,Bohs game plan carried out really well.early days but important ones.
So Saturday already feels like a big one we have to win it if we are serious about pushing top half or top four even. I know its very early days but you can't be losing to teams like these and Bohs if you're serious.
If we lose Saturday I personally hope Russell is gone by Sunday what do ye think?
If we lose Saturday that will be three times Russell has been outcoached by a gorse bush impersonating a man. finn harps have less quality than tv3.
I think our next four games will go beat harps respectable defeat in buncrana nine goal free for all in bray and an absolute show made of us against cork.
Teams for Saturday?
I'd go:
Clarke
Our only four defenders.
Hery
Duggan
Lynch
Ogbene
Tosi
Clarke
'Gorse bush impersonating a man' just made me laugh quite loudly there.
I don't expect Harps to get anything out of the game on Saturday, but we've a little bit more quality than TV3.
Dropping Freddy or just giving Clarke a run?
A bit of both.Quote:

If Pat o Sullivan didn't sack Russell when we got relegated he never will especially when we went about 15 to 20 games without a win Russell will be going nowhere anytime soon.
Fair enough. I am usually happy to have Freddy in goal but would be interesting to see what Clarke is like, I can't remember seeing him for Pat's. Is there any concern if it would have an impact on back four (positive or negative)?Quote:

You would have had a point if that is actually what happened but although I can see why people may have thought that its not what happened at all.Quote:

People looking for something to be outraged about sometimes.Quote:

Now fair enough it was probably because Tosi' number didn't go up that people jeered rather than because it was Turners but it did sound like it was for Turner due to the timing. I remember cause that's exactly what I was thinking at the time.
I can understand why some people thought it was that anyone around it could hear the conversation going with it though which made it obvious what it was. Some of our fans have a weird thing too of completely making things up to make it look worse like a few saying Turner was booed all the way off the pitch and boos continued after he was on the bench which is absolute nonsense.
Anyway away from that stuff what do people think of the timing of tomorrows game? Personally think its an awful time to have it.
Do you guys have the BWIN cameras set up in Markets Field?
If not will there be any coverage of the game even on radio?
Don't have the cameras but game will be in full on Live95 fm.Quote:

Should have just done it tonight or went up against the rugby. Is there really gonna be any better of a crowd early the day after Paddys day then there would be if we just went at our usual 6.30 tomorrow or at 7.45 tonight?
What price are limerick tomorrow, I think they will win comfortably, need a big game from Duggan and lee jay
8/15 on Paddy Power.Quote:

Today's weather is going to effect the attendance big time. The club will be doing well to even sell out the stand i reckon.
Any doubts over the pitch being playable today??
I'd say the pitch will be playable alright. I reckon attendance of around 1,100.
1,000 of that will be Harps fans too.Quote:
