Hard luck Pats but Stena are a good team. No shame in that result.
I don't think Kildare_Lad meant it like that lads.
You've misread me!Quote:

This seems to be the level for LOI teams at the moment. Although no shame in losing to Steaua, they looked a very good side and are always in european competitions at the turn of the year. The key is to be consistently hitting this level for a few years and hopefully a breakthrough will come. Pats and Drogs werent a million miles off last year.
in a way, I think Bohs were closer than any team has ever been despite going out really early, when you see Ventiplis(sp?) from Latvia assured of Europa Group stages despite being beaten 3-0 at home by Zurich, it really could have been us.
