Good thing we're heading into the mid-season break, I don't think my heart could take another match like that for at least another month!
To be honest, I though Skippy was going to walk for that challenge. My heart nearly stopped when I saw the ref going for his pocket, especially seeing as I wasn't sure if we'd used up a substitution on Foran (He looked like he was okay when we was walking in front of the stand during the game, hopefully he'll be back soon). Great save from the penalty though, and another fantastic one later on. I think as a shot-stopper he's one of the best I've seen, he just needs to work on coming for crosses, and cutting out the odd mistake he makes. Then again, if he could do that he'd probably be playing for Arsenal or somebody.

All you zombies tweet tweet tweet.
It would have been very different if he'd been sent off like he probably should have been!
I think McCabe had a great game, decent distribution, loads of running, and that time he tackled that Bluebell player into the dugout! I thought Jake Kelly was having a decent game as well, until he went off.
MOTM was picked by the journos at the match. There was about seven people who voted in it. The vote was taken just after the peno save so it could be announced before the end of the match, that's probably why he got it.

1st thing is first, Bray are very very lucky to be in the next round of the cup, Bluebell deserved at least a draw from the game....
But in saying that Richie Winter should be ashemed of himself for some of his decisions he made during the match. Firstly Shields shouldnot have been sent off. He was absolutely smashed out of it, the Bluebell player only had eyes to damage Sheilds (which has has done, he was taken to hospital with a dislocated hip !!!! the scumbag didn't even get a yellow card for his tackle), As Shields was writhing around in pain on the ground, the Blubell player was getting to his feet and stood on Shields to who in turn kick out to get the Bluebell player off him. Form Winter to give Shields a red card while he was being strechered off was disgraceful.
We can have no complaints about the peno, terrible back pass and why skippy came out on his knees i'll never know, but he made up for it with a teriffic save. All i can assume is that he wasdn't shown a red card because the player looked like he lost control of the ball and he was going well away from goal. A lot of other refs would have shown Skippy a red card so i think we got lucky with that call.
McCabe was singled out for some attention by the Bluebell lads as well, the only thing is that McCabe got revenge with a fairly robust tackle himself.
No many positives to take form the match, apart from winning i suppose. Byrne was a good target man, won pretty much everythying in the air and scored a lovely goal as well as winning a peno.
