The first goal was his fault. 100%. He should have went back to his line. Had absolutely no business going where he went.

I thought the only real difference on Saturday night was that we took our chances, and partly due to Doherty's brilliance and partly due to wastefulness, you didn't.

I don't think either sides defence is anywhere near good enough to go up.

[Longfordian]

Don't think anyone here is expecting to be challenging for promotion to be honest but if we can sort out the defence a top half finish would be an improvement.

He was totally wrong. The place he went to is more commonly known as No Mans Land. If he went back to his line where he should have been, he would have been able to save it with his mickey.

Not to mention there would have been more defenders close to him to block down his shot as a few had to track back onto the line

Exactly, if Shanahan went back onto his line there wouldn't have been a mix'em gather'em type situation where defenders were defending the line instead of the box, and the keeper trying to defend the penalty area instead of the line.

close down the shooter thats what good keepers do.. if he went backwards there he had no hope of saving the shot closing the striker down make him make a decision the defenders should have charged out at him!!!! savable thou as i said

as a defender it would be mental to see your keeper running like mad ahead of you... they were shocked. 100% the keepers fault!

[Tallanted]

he closed down the angle nothin more than he could do there, if you wanna pick a fault it would be with the cross he could have dealt with it better, infairness it was a good finish he couldnt put it any where else. There are plenty of faults with that goal as a team not just the keeper, why was he unmarked on the edge of the box? why was he not closed down quicker by a midfielder or defender, he got far too much space and time. Its done now we learn and improve on it and move on
