May as well use this thread for tonight's game at CCS. I am amazed to see St.Kevin's @12/1 with the bookies, if I wasnt a Town fan I'd take that as we will surely rotate big time with such a massive game coming up on Saturday. Gona be an optimist though and say Town to win on penalties

Any updates on this game??
Just seen we're 1 down at ht!! Presuming we're resting a good few?? Hopefully!!
Town XI: Hunt; Brilly, Deans, McCarthy, Tyrrell; Doyle, Gillespie, O'Neill, Purdy; Shaw, O'Hanlon.
Starting team
Delighted that Gillespie played in this. He needs to up his fitness bigtime.

Very glad we got out of that with a win, its handy to have these few extra games to keep the fringe lads sharp, and yeknow cup runs are always good.
A win is a win, wasn't there myself but teams like Kevin's are no mugs. As said, handy to have the squad players playing a few games to get fit/keep fit. I'd say O'Hanlon is raging he got pulled down when it sounds like he was about to score against his old team.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
I've done a report on the game so thatl be online later but in a quick summary we were extremely lucky not to lose last bight, St.Kevin's outplayed us and played it on the deck all night it was a treat to see. We played our usual hoofball rubbish and our back 4 was absolutely awful apart from young Aaron Brilly was was fantastic.
Gillespie worked really hard and made 1 crucial block while David O'Neill was shocking again he must have misplaced every pass, Gavin Doyle worked hard as did O'Hanlon and Shaw.
They scored from a long throw (awful defending), they hit the crossbar and forced Hunt into a great reaction save so could have been 3-0 up but then a long ball by Hunt was ran onto by O'Hanlon who was hacked down and Salmo who came on for Gillespie at HT scored and their man was sent off.
Nkolo and Sully came on and won us the game as Nkolo left 2 men for dead and rolled it to Salmo who smashed it in with 3 minutes to go. Kevins were sick after as they should have had a clear penalty in the first half and it wouldve been a red card possibly too so we really could have been 3 or 4-0 down at certain stages had they taken the chances I mentioned.
That was our first LSC game at home in 7 or 8 years so nice to win it they we id should give the lads a boost.

The last time we played at home in the LSC before last nite was in the 2000/01 season when we lost 1-0 to Kilkenny City which was Jan 01. this was our first win in LSC since 98-99 season when we beat Shamrock Rovers at home 2-1 and got knocked out by Dundalk in the Q finals!

A certain Sean Prunty made his first or first home start that night if memory serves me.

Cracking player he was. Lovely fella too.

Gentleman. Never heard anyone have a bad word to say about him on or off the pitch.
