goal, what the f*ck were Bohs at!

[MeathDrog]

True but sometimes when you realise that they're actually no better than you, it's too late.

1 0 Salzburg

Ouch. Sloppy, but arguably coming.

How remarkably prescient.

Murphy caught in no mans land just like last week. Rossiter obviously was partly at fault too.

Partly at fault .

The reason Murphy was in no mans land was because the header was so poor, awful from Rossiter

[paul_oshea]

how could the rest of them go in and not want to kill yer man rossiter.

The comemtator even said... 'Thanks to Mark Rossiter Salzburg are in next round'

[MeathDrog]

Fecking typical from Bohs. Salzburg were absolutely ****e but in a typical Irish manner Bohs just showed them respect and stood off them for 90 minutes. Then when they realise that they're actually no better than them, it's too late. A stupid, sloppy goal in the 87th minute is the difference.

History of Irish sport it seems...

[shep]

they can have no real complaints about outcome,they came up agonisingly short,but that is the risk you take when you try to simply defend a lead.

Unlucky Bohs,realisticly are they now fooked???

[pineapple stu]

There goes Bohs' business plan anyway.

Hard to argue that Salzburg didn't deserve it in the end. Arguably sums up Pat Fenlon's deficiencies as a manager too. Second half was almost one-way traffic, albeit one-dimensional, unimaginative one-way traffic. If Bohs had had a go, they could well have gone through. Two poor sides though; Zagreb must have enjoyed watching the game.

[Razors left peg]

Bohs looked absolutely knackered in the last half hour, crazy that they had to play on sunday

Harrington winning 3 majors
Bernard Dunne winning a world title.
Ireland beating England 88 and Italy 94

I could name a lot more success.


Salzburg are not much of a team, Bohs should have knocked them out, only a stupid error cost them, but in saying that, Bohs could have easily not been in that position, they were there to be taken and Bohs were not attacking enough.

[pól-dcfc]

I don't think it is Rossitters fault. Bohs were set up wrong tonight. They didn't make any effort to attack. Fenlon needs to stop going nuts there at the end at the Salzburg manager. It's his own fault that his team is out and probably ****ed financially. Salzburg are rubbish.

Perhaps should have narrowed that down to soccer but for every triumph we have, we have plenty more hard luck stories to match it.

[pineapple stu]

But sure the nature of sport is that for every triumph there is, there's a hard luck story to match it. Shels' win over Hajduk, for example, was a hard luck story for Hajduk.

You make your own luck in sport. In particular, you don't sit back playing for a draw against a poor enough team.
