Ya 10-1 to Lisnagry.
No Coonagh weren't missing any players. Was only 4 minutes to go when blown up cause i had it timed but Coonagh where well beaten. Never at the races today. Second to every ball and a lot of players doing silly things they never would and making silly mistakes they normally wouldn't. Lisnagry are the best team in the league.

I'm not here to slag off Coonagh as I'm a former player (and hopefully future one too) but there were plenty of times we went out for 21sts/other random things the night before and we never got hockeyed THAT badly, so best thing is for ye to have a game next weekend and get it out of the system, onwards and upwards hopefully :DQuote:

I reakon Lisnagry could have that desire and will be hard to beat coming up to the business end now.
Shels 0 - 2 Shannon Town.
Lisnagry fairly have the league walked alright....few teams playing for promotion I reckon though!
These lads have gone out on nights out a few times and put in performances. Just wasn't their day today and very harsh to critise them for what I'd consider a once off. Can't remember those lads every getting a beating like that. End of the day 1-0 or 10-1, it's only three points and up to the team to pick themselves up and moveQuote:

Going out and getting hammered the night before a match is a tradition that's followed a large part of the Coonagh squad since their earlier years at Caherdavin, and it's sad to see it still holding them back now.Quote:

I agree with pretty much all that. The only thing I'd disagree with is their actual preparation. They come out in big numbers for training and train hard. It's the attitude towards the nights out that they don't seem to change.Quote:
