    Robbed

    Simple as that, people who wernt at the game will say 3-1 that 1 goal didn't make a difference but we were all over them till then and it of course lead to us playing with 10 men.

    Anyone that was in tolka earlier this season will remember the women lino, how on earth does she get a game every week? it wasn't just the offside twice during the game a cork player booted the ball out but somehow ended up getting the throw?

    Anyway Shels next, gona be hard to pick the lads up but I'm sure theyl do us proud again.

    I cant comment on whether their second goal was offside or not, because I had a bad view of it, but I dont think we were robbed. Cork were by far the better team. Their no 9 was a constant thorn in our side the whole night and our defensive line left Deans exposed by him time and time again. Their first goal was an awful goal to give away, dreadful marking and they dominated until we got the penalty. As I said about their goal, cant comment on whether it was offside but Gary Cronin was stupid getting sent on. You would expect more from a player of his experience regardless of whether it was right or wrong. I thought Gillespie should have been left on, although it wasnt one of his better games, he was a mile better than Walsh who I though was very poor. We gifted them their 3rd goal and in truth they could have had one or two more. The lineswoman did make a bad call regarding a throw in but at the end of the day had no impact on the game, as cork were superior to us all over the pitch last night

    Dont agree with that ye were having by far the better of it at the start of the second half until she gave a goal that was a good 3 yards offside which made ye drop your heads and ended up with ye going down to 10 which was stupid from your player.
    But thats a fairly massive impact on a game there.

    Sorry, meant that the throw in had no impact in the game. Of course the goal had an impact, but I just thought cork were the better team last night and always looked liked they could lift it if they had to

    They were better in the 1st and after they got a 2nd but if the correct call was made for the 2nd who knows ye were definitely playing better then them at the start of the 2nd half.

    Was chatting to some of the cork lads after the game, they said he was at least 7/8 yards offside anyway
