Yes, this is clearly the turning point in Irish football history.

The fact is that neither Rico with his selection nor the players with their performance did themselves an awful lot of justice.

Can't believe he even contemplated making Madden the lone frontman - he was physically dominated the whole night, while Sheppard caused them problems the whole time he was on.

Too many silly errors, trying to overplay when a simple pass was on (2 goals) and no marking on a corner (1). Couldn't do much about the goals on the break as at least we were being positive, but overall I think a lot of the players will be kicking themselves.

Mulcahy's goal was fantastic though. The man is a machine.

People here really need to get over the EPL and barstoolers. Tonight just highlighted the divide between customers and fans. The sooner you stop worrying about them the easier it is for our clubs to move forward.

Couldn't open the Media Player for some reason, and though I might regret this (or be able to list each and every given reason myself), could someone gimme a very quick rundown of what reasons FM104 gave?

Just got home from the game. I have to say in my naivety I didn't expect quite that much of the crowd to be made up of United fans. It was sad to see a bunch of players who've never played together before donning the shirt of a non-entity of a team to go out and be slaughted by a well oiled machine of top quality players. I'm not really one to get worked up about bar stoolers, I'll freely admit to the LOI cardinal sin of being a Celtic fan, but there was something so cringeworthy to watch so many Dubliners in unison chanting in a Mancunian accent like some sort of Pavlovian experiment and getting so working up at a missed Wayne Rooney chance in a friendly against an Airtricity XI.

**Dunny** · 04/08/2010, 9:56 PM

It's not great but it's funny to hear these eejit barstoolers on it sometimes, the young Bray fan is coming across well tbf.

Only in this country would you see the away team more supported than the home one .
Shame the game finished with such a comfertable Man Utd win, tonight was a lost oppertunity for the league to try and convince more people to head along to LOI matches .
The LOI is much better than what many people would have see for the first time of LOI players tonight.
Annoyed me seeing nearly everyone there for Man Utd with a mexican wave and chants of ole ole .

**dancinpants** · 04/08/2010, 10:00 PM

Ah man, the LOI sympathizer, a Bray fan, has just admitted that if the match was against Liverpool he'd have been there with his Pool top on shouting for Liverpool - and he could do that because there were no Bray players in the League Select. thats the mentality of it so far. Oh theres also been a Pats fan arguing in favour of the Utd fans at the Aviva - he hasn't been to Richmond park in 2 years mind you. Oh Lord - lol it ain't pretty man.
