Wexford Yuffs 1-1 Shelbourne

**legendz** · 22/08/2010, 9:14 PM

It was a good weekend for Shamrock and Derry in their respective divisions. I hope Shamrock won't suffer the faith of past champions should they go on and win. I was disappointed to see Limerick lose, I'd like to see them do well. Derry are a cut above the rest in Division One though, be good for the league for them and Cork to get back. On Cork, bad loss to Waterford when they seemed to be catching up with the top 3. Good on Waterford though, I like to see Munster teams do well.

Jeez that first yellow card for the Dundalk player was incredibly harsh!

**Dunny** · 23/08/2010, 6:30 PM

Dunno how the hell Maher got the first yellow card. To me our dissalowed goal was onside.(not 100% sure though)

Bastid officials.

Shamrock Rovers 4:1 UCD
Full Moon. we didn't ourselves any favours tonight. First goal was gifted to Bradley from a midfield error, worked hard and after some close calls Killer stuck the equaliser past Mannus, for Kilduff's tenth Airtricity League goal. Dennehy's goal came from a UCD throw-in at the home sides corner flag, the winger broke away and sent in a shot from out wide which beat Barron. Sending off didn't help. we had players out f position and once again Paul O'Conor is played at right-back, but with no one on the right side of midfield, the pressure came from there, Twigg and Murray rose highest in the box for the other goals.
But UCD raised themselves up in that second half and alot of hard work was done by Boyle tidying up in defence, Ward and Bolger trying to keep Kilduff in the game, who hit the crossbar in the second half

There's nine games to go, UCD still playing the football.

To your credit you are. Bad tackle for the red card.

Bit of funny ending to the report for the game:

Massive win for us tonight, another good game to watch after the Sligo game on Friday, Delighted

**Lamper.sffc** · 24/08/2010, 12:54 AM

Worst defeat of the season for us tonight. So disappointed. It was a great game and could have gone either way, but its a hard defeat to take. Some great goals tonight. How close was Ronan Finns effort when it was two all.

On a side note. It seems Drogheda are not the only team to have in house fighting

and how good was that cowbell

Roll on next week and the FAI Cup game against Limerick. Need something to take my mind off tonights defeat

Not that close actually. About a yard wide. I'd imagine we had a better angle than you in fairness. How good is Finn btw? If I could sign any player in the league it'd be him. Still thought McAllister was the best player on the park. His goal showed everything a midfielder needs. Wins the ball, runs 50 yards with it, plays it through, continues his run, collects a poor enough ball back and buries it with his supposed weaker foot.

Great feeling walking out of the ground last night. Any nuetral watching would've been happy to see two good teams give eveything too

Was watching the replay after with Rusty and a couple of the players. General consensus was that it looked worse than it was. Went in for a 30/70 after a bad touch by the Rovers player, didn't make the ball, turned sideways - maybe to pull out of the tackle or protect himself? Clumsy anyway - and the Rovers player went flying over him. Maybe a different angle will show it up differently though. That said, Shorty was never one to shirk out of a challenge and maybe another player would have pulled out sooner. Shame for us as it really ended the game; we'd been doing ok if still second best. Four points from ten games now; badly badly need wins against Bray and Drogheda to get out of the relegation mire. Don't know how it's come to this given how well we were doing after beating Fingal last time out.

His close control and turn of pace is as good as anything I've seen in this league anyway. There's a great clip in our game against Longford last year (It's up on our YouTube) where there's eight Longford players and just Finn on screen; he still turns away from two or three of them and threads a pass through for Killer. Sublime stuff. Really belongs in a better league. May be comfortable here though.
