5-3 Shels
Full Time
Shels - Longford games are the ones for goals obviously!
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
The tackle occurreed at 70.01, he got up at 70.46. And again, why should I give a sh*t about Sullivan? I don't know him, he doesn;t play for my team, I don't care, and how that makes me a ***** in your eyes says more about your Utopian view of life than anything else. Are you having sleepless nights worrying about whether or not Alan Murphy will get the all clear from the scan on his knee? Or whether Nigel Keady will be able to pvercome injury and appear for Mervue United this season?Well, to be frank, that makes you a *****. No football fan likes to see someone out for a season regardless of who he plays for, it can mess up the guys livelihood and career.
Also, I never suggested a foul is required for the ball to be put out of play. But there's no need to put the ball out of play when a player pretends to be injured in order to stop the attack of the opposition. You're actually arguing that if a player wants to, the game should be stopped if he lies on the floor. In this situation the referee saw the tackle and for some reason thought the player might be overreacting some what.
I wonder what would have given him that impression
70:26 writhing in pain
Three seconds later at 70:29 after the referee says to get up as he's not getting anything
"Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins."
"Homer Simpson, smiling politely."
Maybe it put it badly - I did not mean you personally. Fans who let off flares or fireworks end up costing the club they profess to "support" in the fines that the FAi impose, irrespective of whether it is at home or away.why did ya say that?? its not like i let them off.......................
Town Match... Great game for goals, not for football. Shels are a good side and will do well. Longford were poor. Shels keeper should have been sent off. There was a certain shout for a second peno for Longford when McEvoy was tripped inside the box, as it stopped a shooting opportunity. Shels manager is mental. I also loved the wee chats with the fourth official and a coach from Shels throughout the match. Town were too sloppy at the back.
Sporting F*ck All!
This is true but pot and kettle surely?
Lets redefine what it means to heal
I would disagree with that. Well we were poor, especially defensively and Lester needs to start in the midfield in future, but I don't think Shels are that good tbh. We gifted them pretty much all their goals except their 3rd, which was well worked in fairness. On that showing last night, I honestly don't think they're too far ahead of us, our defenders just need to start defending. We might be ok then.
Can you really criticise a side who've just banged 5 goals past you? Granted, we didn't defend amazingly. But 2 of our first choice back 4 were out injured, and another was forced to play with an injury as a result of having no other centre back to replace him. On the run of play we walked all over yous to be honest, especially in midfield.

mons go 1 up in Wexford through Barry Clancy. There will be a delay in updates as am having to get them from text messages from people at the game as there is no electricity in the ground for our reporter to plug in her laptop to update here or anywhere else live.
I know micks feelimg financial pressure but the esb bill is a must pay
I wish i did not know then what I dont know now
Maybe this is why the game is on a Sunday afternoon this time around!
HT Wexford Youths 0-1 Monaghan United
Aertel dont even have the game as kicked off yet!
I'm not criticising ye, I just don't think ye were anything special. I didn't know that about your defence being injured etc. Agreed that ye walked over us in midfield, that's why I suggested that John Lester has to start for us coz our midfield was a lot stronger in the 2nd half when he came on.
The designated press box / media room is in the clubhouse which is well back at an angle to a corner of the pitch. Not much of a view.
There's a couple of benches at the back of the stand which apparently were put in on a temporary basis when they had the League Final there a couple of years ago. There's a trailing power lead on the floor - but it's not connected anymore.
My laptop battery just about lasted for our game there 2 weeks ago - thanks to Wexford's supporters shop who allowed me to to get a quick re-charge at half time.
A transient, horrible, fantastic dream,

FT Wexford Youths 0-1 Monaghan United.
Thankfully thats the first league win under the belt. Onwards and upwards I hope!
No, but I don't take pleasue in seeing opposition players get seriously injured as you did. And yes for me and a lot of other football fans that makes you a bit of a ****.
