Only because we fielded the youngsters in the second half and let them back into it. Overall though we hammered them.
Ah well, I'm sure GU made a good few quid.
The main thing.Quote:

thanks for that! galway must've had the kids out if virgo was able to score.
So much for Celtic bringing over a "strong squad":rolleyes:
Celtic are into their season now. You'd hardly expect them to be bringing the likes of Naka and Brown over. It is a strong squad. Sno, Gravesen, O'Dea, Pressley, Caldwell and Balde are all first team squad players. I was expecting a reserve squad at best.Quote:

Our midfield were out to lunch and as for Barry well I was happy when he dropped back to right back which says it all .
If I was pushed I would say Wes did quite well while he was on but to pick a player of the match for Gayway I would go for Robson who looked good at the back and added a bit of much needed steel in midfiled after half time .
As for the guy on trial Hughes I would say not much better than we have at the moment in the squad .
Roll on Friday night .:cool:;):cool:
Harps team:
Cullen, Holmes, McLaughlin, Boyle, Roddy, O'Loughlin, McGowan, Sheilds, Divin, Gethins, Friel.

Celtic team:
Fox, Virgo, O'Dea, Caldwell, Pressley, Balde, Caddis, Sno, O'Brien, Gravesen, McGowan.

We truely would have hit 5/6 easily had we stuck with our 1st half team. We had bundles of chances after 3-0 and even in the second half with a virtually new team out we could have scored more.
Only 3000 at the game? :eek: We had Over 5000 and could have sold more tickets had we a bigger ground.
How many did ye have at yere game versus Sunderland last week?
A million.
Now Aidan it was more like 900,000 the place wasnt completely full :pQuote:

Id say we will break even or better this season after the revenue generated around the 2 events.The Sunderland game was a serious money spinner with 2 additional fundraisers ran in conjunction with it.
The only problem was the amount of work involved which has left most people involved wrecked but it was well worth it.As for the results next friday nights game is far more important hence nearly all the first team was rested last night.
Celtic fans on KDS forum full of praise for the stadium and also saying the pitch was in superb condition.
thats good to hear eirebhoy
Yer i must admit the pitch is really A1 , I was speaking one of our lads and a Sunderland fan said to him that he has seen worse pitches in England at the very start of the season and found it hard to believe we are half way into our season .:)
they might have brought them over for the harps game but gravesen and balde were'nt even on the bench against us.....i think sligomans point stands it was a mickey mouse team they fielded against us!!Quote:
