did the sporting game finish 0 v 2

Is there a prize for understatement of the month????Quote:

Not sour grapes we had no signs of actually getting a goal until Jason Molloy had a flash of brilliance fair play to the young lad he got his chance to come on and took it well talent for the future it appears.
GuisaSaigon put it perfectly when he said CCFC had one shot on goal but still scored twice in the first half

Did Matthews play 4-3-3 again, or did he bow to the shed team selection comma-tee?
Just back. Missed the first twenty minutes so just came in to see Bohs' disallowed goal, a header at the far post given offside by a linesman who proceeded to get every single offside decision wrong for both teams for the rest of the match, so I can't say whether that one was right. Wouldn't dream of extrapolating.
The penno we got in the second half was soft. As in never in a million years. And half of the Bray players got booked for moaning.
Played okay in the first half, some good passing and worked a couple of nice openings but nothing really clear-cut; played some really, really bad football in the second half and Bray could have nicked it at the end after having offered nothing much. Maybe deserved to after that penalty decision.
The linesman was a total chancer; he gave decisions on two occasions where I was watching him and he was looking at the ball being played from midfield and he turned and gave the forward offside when he received the ball even though he had run from a clear onside position. Happened against Joxer in the first half and, inexplicably, on the far side against Bray in the second half.
Some of the lack of imagination from Bohs in the second half was ingenious, especially after Crowe went off.
You should have a look at the league table! :D Cheerio! :D:pQuote:

our last four games in the brandywell.
why wouldn't they be happy with the score, they played very very well, clean sheet, very good performance from us tonight, when almost everyone expected us to get trounced
still if ireland got a 0-0 against Italy I would'nt evenbe celebrating
If our penalty at home to UCD last week was soft Bohs one tonight was criminal. On TV3 looked like defender clearly got the ball before the man ran into him. No replay but some referees would give a free out. :eek:
I don't think we were actively celebrating though to be fair , granted we were happy with the result but celebrating is a bit strong I didn't notice anyone breaking into tears of joy or threatening a pitch invasion , sure there was chanting but that was going on all game anyway
Can I just point out that that was Alan Mahon's first goal in 241 league appearances for us?Quote:

Four points between sixth and seventh already. Four points the bottom six have taken from the top six. Wouldn't be surprised to see that trend continue along the season.
Was at Shels and Longford...it was a good game for the first half hour - ball on the ground and chances at both ends.
Very debatable penalty for 1-0. Don't think it was deliberate enough, but can see why it was given and it was game over from then as Shels dominated and put the second in.
Rutherford still has it.

Cheers
Most likely the usual 352 with the wide men not tracking back quite as much as normal. Although commentators do tend to get these things wrong, i was a few mins late for the Shels game and Spratt or whatever he's called on SE said it was 442 when its was obviously 352, or 532 whatever way you look at it.Quote:

Galway wee very poor, especially in the second half. Te worst team Ive seen so far.
We should have had 3 more. Mooney missed a sitter of a header in the first half, Cillian Lordan missed another in the first half(dunno what game you were watching Tir O).
Wed gotten the goals so were cruising. Went to sleep for there goal but responded well.
Flynny should ahve squared the ball for another tap in for Mooney in the second half and Alan O Connor missed a sitter from 6 yards out.
I dunno if it was suspensions or injuries or what but Galway needf to improve and start picking up points soon.
Also, why was you manager sent off?
Easiest win in the EL, harps are the worst team i have ever seen. Some of their defending was comical. We looked like a team with width Guy played on the right and did well gave fahey options when he had the ball.
Would like to say we were brilliant but harps are really really bad.

I was up in Block A of the Jodi, so my vieew was crap, but I thought the defender got the ball and followed through on the attacker due to momentum. I thought our peno was very soft too. It looked like our player (Kav?) went down very easily.Quote:

Another joke of a penalty at Drogheda Ucd, Garto clearly got the ball only for the player to fall over after he had taken the ball on the trailing leg of the sliding tackle, absolute joke
From my view it was a defo peno. The player hit it by Garto and Garto slid right thru him.Quote:

Random stat which came up last night - the "bottom six" have taken four points off the "top six". I'd say you oculd almost stay up with 30 points this year, even with three going down.
I missed Drogs' penalty as well.Quote:

One of our committee came up at half time and asked if I had WYMC or Im too sexy for my shirt to play for your lads.........:D
He was also off side. Plus what was our goal disallowed for? Looked alright to me but then again I was down in F so wouldn't have had the best of views.Quote:

As for the Bohs peno, well how Hugo gave it i'll never know, i was 100 yards away and could even see that Cronin won the ball fair and square, it was actually a superb tackle. Shocking decision.
Bohs had there chances to score but O'Connor was excellent (apart from bhis kicking), i thought it was probably his best game in a Bray jersey.
We caught Bohs 3 times on the break in the last few minutes and how we didn't put at least 2 of them away i'll never know?
Before the matc i would have been happy with a draw but on reflection i'm gutted and thin k we were hard done by. Very encouraging preformace by the lads and Eddie's subs were great and very well timed.
