Its going to be poor enough down here next year though. Kilkenny will be their usual ****e self, Monaghan solely exist to give Magicme an excuse to get out of the house, Kildare are Kildare, Wexford will hopefully realise that Italian teams actually do come out of their own half, Dundalk will still be depressed about last season, we will have our usual blinding start to the season before the chairman's evil twin comes back to unravel our empire Dynasty style, Waterford will think they will stroll it and so inevitably will finish 5th, Longford will play transition year students looking for work experience to cut costs, and who knows how far Athlones €20k a week budget will get them next year. So you never know what Shels could do
Judging by the notes in the match program it's not looking good for next season. Lot's of talk about budget cuts and the like. Will be hard to hold onto the few quality signings from this year. Great display from the supporters after the match. I just hope the FAI observer was gone home or the fine will be nice! Like the way ye switched the floodlights off when only Wallace was left on the pitch, he got a nice reminder from the Wexford supporters about his floodlight issues.
Only the one peno, we might even have scored another few. Shels really looked like they couldn't be bothered at times, in the second half the lads really came out of themselves, I'd swear at least 6 of them were in the Shels half at once. :D
It was a lovely way to finish off a tough season and will give them a big boost for next year. Who would have predicted Wexford Youths playing Shelbourne and beating them a year ago?
[QUOTE=Mental Man;811971]A few of us travelled up to Buckley Park last night to see the game between harps and Kilkenny and to be honest the 3 goals harps got was with the worst goalkeeping i have ever seen in football at any level, sweet jesus it was chronic to say the least and at times QUOTE]
That's because he wasn't a keeper. Keepers were out. AJ Murray injured and Noel byrne suspended. The lad that played in goal was called Robbie Ryan, a centre-half
A centre half in goal and Harps only scored 3?:eek:
Exactly, i was at the game and at times Kilkenny ran straight through ye, a few of your own supporters even said it to me during the match i was sitting with them, they could have scored another 1 or 2 goals against ye as well, for effort i thought Kilkenny were as good as ye, so anyway that explains why ye got 3 soft goals, now i am more confident for the playoffs :D.
Is this true:confused: And it could have been the reason Harps got promoted? :eek:
You'd think Ramblers could have offered their U-21 keeper on loan for the night. :) Aren't there special exemptions that can be granted in some cases if a team can't field a goalkeeper?
It is yeah, Robbie Quan was actually his name. I heard they tried to get someone but couldn't. I'm sure there must've been someone with goalkeeping experience, well perhaps not in kilkenny! Cobh would've been rightly ****ed, but they did score seven there so maybe they expected little in the form of favours
