couldn't get out of work on time to get down, what was the team and how did we play ???

**boots** · 12/05/2004, 11:31 AM

Dempsey, Murphy, Dillion, Ferguson, Prunty, Vinny, Sheridan, Keogh, Barrett, Keegan, Lavine.
4-3-3 in that order..
Pretty much a non-event last night. Kildare battled hard and were very physical. Their no. 6 won every header in the middle of the park. The town lads didnt seem all that interested, probably having one eye on saturday, no point picking up any injuries.
Seemed like a strong team but when you look at it we only had 4 or 5 of the strongest 11 starting. Highlights the strenght of the squad at the moment.
Lavine showed some great touches and looked like our best striker. Unfortunately his finishing was deplorable as was keegans.
Darragh Sheridan actually impressed but Vinny had a forgettable night. he kinda lost the plot when he was taken off, kicking the dugout seats and heading straight for the dressing room

Centre midfield remains a huge problem. Comprehensively outplayed there by kildare for most of the game last night.
Back 4 were rock solid except for the goal which had a strong suspision of offside..

Lavine always had nice touches... How was he attitude? Whats the story with Barrett?

Agree with most of the above match report with one or 2 adjustments.It is obvious that 4-3-3 dosen't suit us as we had no width at all.Vinny was shocking, his worst performance ever for the Town.I thought his little episode after he was taken off was bad form and Matthews should have a word with him.I'm sure it was just his frustration at being taken off.Keegan was very poor as usual so no surprise there.He spends more time on his arse than a sit down protester and i stand by my opinion of him being a bad and unnecessary signing.Darragh was crap.He can't pass a ball, he can't head a ball, he complains all the time and he gives away to many free kicks.I counted 12 or 13 last night and yet he wasn't booked i think.Barrett done ok and Lavine played well although he missed 2 very good chances but hopefully he is on his way back.Sean Prunty was excellent again.Solid at the back although he had no outlet which he could pass to which was down to the 4-3-3 sh1t but when he pushed up to left side midfield he gave good width, whipped in a couple of decent crosses and scored an excellent goal.Maybe he's an option for that position again with Paiso dropping back to left full and Brian Byrne keeping Keego entertained on the side line.My team v Dublin City
Dempsey ( cos Digger is suspended )
Murph, Barry, Dillo, Paiso
Martyn, Kirby, Vinny, Prunty
Baker, Francis/Lavine

Not a bad side.

I'd plump for

Dempsey,
Dillon, Ferguson, Paisley, Prunty
Martin, Kirby, Murph, Byrne,
Francis, Baker.

if Lavine has got his attitude and appetite right I'd stick him in the midfield. I'd have to take a chance. Love it if it worked

**max power** · 12/05/2004, 1:14 PM

i'd agree with xlex team, strongest we have at the mo with mcgovern injured.....but i'd like to see barrett and baker get at least a half up front together

Lavine was useless and proved why Matthews leaves him in the stand week in week out!! as for his attitude he went straight to the dug out and Matthews went over patted him on the back and he didnt so much as acknowledge him! darragh (i feel pretty) sheridan was also crap da usual pull out if tackles and den started mouthin when something else was goin on! Vinny had a bad game but i think his outburst was more to do with playing bad rather than bein takin off!he didnt go to the dressing room but went down and was stretchin and stuff with the other lads! as for prunty he was outstanding and a well deserved goal

**Maz** · 12/05/2004, 2:17 PM

I was trying to concentrate on the game but was distracted by some strange noise which happened to be the famous and freaky Max Power!! intrigued by your obsession with poor Vincent i couldnt help but listen to the rubbish falling from your mouth and to the frantic questions by those unfortunates sitting beside you wondering who you were and why you were talking to them!!

**max power** · 12/05/2004, 2:21 PM

my god what rubbish you speak, at a match you talk to fellow fans from the same team, don't you...or have been gettin it wrong for the last 15 years ????

maz once again how did you realise i was max.....i didn't have a name tag afterall.....but i did get a good laugh out of the little bohs fans in front of us !!!!

**Maz** · 12/05/2004, 2:27 PM

yes another thing they were all of 10years old and you fell for them hook line and sinker!! answering them back and fighting with them seriously!! as for talking to fans yes introduce yourself, talk about the team or the game but this thing of talking about vinny for 90 odd mins is a bit freaky!!!
i told you i know all................

**max power** · 12/05/2004, 2:29 PM

i was having a little fun with them....you know as you do at a match.....if someone introduced themself to me at a match, i'd run...the club colours say all you need to !!!!
