Cork Away

[fieldofmarkets]

Can't agree with the above on Gamble, thought he was quite good tonight and in the previous games. Certainly would not look to him over the lost points. Defensive blunders cost us tonight, which is a shame as we're normally better than that. Scoring 3 was fantastic, did not expect it. Match report said Behan gave away the penalty...but I thought it was Corrie. Scully has been using him to fill in everywhere recently, but a right footed player is always a potential danger playing left back. Bhandarkar should have been selected if available. What happenned with their 2nd? Looked like our keeper just sat down...but might have been the angle I was at. O'Neill should never have gotten a shot off for their 3rd. Was praying for Gaffney to pull the trigger at the death but he took it on too much and the chance was gone. Overall the performance was better than I expected and was gutted we didn't get the win....chance was there and I think we had to have it. Silver lining is maybe Monaghan are running out of steam.

Barry Ryan slipped for their second. Thought Gamble and O'Leary where good although a little slow at times in attack. It took Scully the bones of 40 minutes to realise though that his left winger was on the right and vice versa. Bhandarkar did alright there the last day and I really felt Corrie was put up against it tonight. Gaffney should have won it but Cork had loads of chances to win it too so I'd take the draw. Good to see Behan getting another goal also.

Hopefully playing Mons and Shels away may actually work in our favour though. We need to do the business against Longford next first though.

Gamble has been largely decent and at times superb, wouldn't blame him for tonight by any stretch eventhough he wasn't great.

Fantastic header by Behan for the third goal was my highlight, I'd love to see Gaffney play a game where he's not selected as winger/throw in circus freak, he doesn't seem to be really enjoying the wide role.

The penalty was an absolute shocker, the ref in general was terrible, handing out cards to our lads like snuff at a wake when there wasn't a bad tackle in the game.

Having said that giving up the lead twice the way we did is fairly unforgivable so can't really blame the ref.

I don't know how to feel. On the one hand a draw probably isn't good enough but on the otherhand that Cork team was again looked very ordinary and Monaghan could hopefully be running out of gas.

The one thing I will say for Cork though is they are very dangerous in attack and always looked a threat. Defensively I feel if we got at them more they can be shakey and prone to some errors which we didn't do enough.

Cheers for that. A slip makes sense, the shot was well hit but should have been saved. Makes the dropped points even harder to take.

Well done Harps!

Hopefully the start of a rut for Roddy and Mons.

Hopefully. It would be great to see City and Limerick get 2nd and 3rd. And you'd have to assume that 3rd would go up.

joe gamble cost limerick 3 points tonight what a waster...as for barry ryan he should have been taken off when he made those jestures to his own fans...

and what about the people/person who abused barry Ryan after he slipped, they /he should hang his head in shame, Barry slipped for the 2nd goal and he gets unjustified abuse, noitice I didnt use the word supporter because who ever abuse barry can not call themselves a supporter.

Also in fairness Barry and the supporter both apologised to each other at half time and Barry called him down to shake hands and said they'd put it behind them which was fair enough.

On the Mons thing hopefully the pressure will get to them. If they pick up injuries anything like we have it may cost them big time in the run in. We showed in glimpses last night how dangerous we can be. Hopefully we can get Frosty back ASAP and keep everyone else injury free.

Based on most games he's played. Total waste of money. The sooner we get rid of him and our so called manager the better.

im going to agree with you on this one since he has signed all he has done is picked up stupid bookings he also was red carded for a needless tackle he needs to step up he is on massive wages. at least behan is working hard and now he is scoring in every game gamble needs to pull his finger out. big reputation needs to play like it

naill on the head thomas72,he's only there for the handy money. he could'nt give a toss about limerick...as for barry ryan his sapposed to be an experianced keeper getting caught like that for the 2nd goal is a joke,its not the 1st time he's been shown up this season,as for giving the finger to his own fans that's totally unaccessable...

You seem to be ignoring the fact Ryan slipped and also apologised at half time which I said above.

Seems to be ignoring a lot in fairness.

so what he apologised,fact is he turned on his own fans when a bit of banter was thrown at him ,instead of just getting on with it..

Heat of the moment from both Barry and the fans though and I see nothing wrong if he was big enough to realise it and apologise. You blame him for the goal as well though because it shouldn't be happening an experienced keeper. A slip can happen anyone at anytime. You seem to forget he closed down the angle well and saved a one on one about 5 minutes before that.

the reason he gave the fingers to the people behind him is because they gave him some terrible abuse, it was shameful to listen to that, again notice I didnt use the word supporter because anyone that supports a team would not have abused a team member like that. real shameful comments indeed, people were disgusted to hear the comment that were thrown at Barry Ryan,

[Lim till i die]

This is one of the problems with foot.ie, stuff like this tends to fester on for decades needlessly (i know more than most )

It happened. It was wrong. Let's all move on.

On Joe Gamble, in fairness to the guy yesterday he played a large part in setting up the excellent third goal, chasing down a nothing ball from Gaffney from Gaffney across the box before laying it back for Sean Kelly.

I genuinely think he has at times stepped up to the plate when needed, like he was superb in Ballybofey.

On Barry Ryan, he's obviously a bit eccentrice, one minute he'll pull off a world class save, the next minute he'll do something a little bit mad. Tear your hair out stuff at times but overall he's obviously one of the better keepers in the division and a lot better than anything Cork have.

Some of the people supporting the team are not worthy of being called supporters.. Just go to a home match and go near the stand and listen to the abuse the players get.. It's a joke .. Only a matter of time before one of the players turn around and get involved ..
