Life isn't all beer and football...some of us haven't touched a football in months
Linfield are a dirty b astards. 2 should of been sent off already
It started at 7.15 so it should be over at 9.00
Any news on the score ??
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
Longford 2 - 1 Linfield
two minutes left
All Over - Final score
Longford 2 - 1 Linfield
It was live on Setanta sports!!!
Poor game I thought. Defenders on both sides were really really poor Linfield in the first and Longford in the second. Not as many long balls as against Glentoran but still too many aimless hoofs.
I think Linfield were the better team overall but fair play to hanging on to the win. We cant let a team from the North win this one.
John Delaney!! GET OUT!!!

We defended reallt well I thoughtOriginally Posted by higgins
Dealt with nearly everything they threw at us.
We played some lovely football. Wasnt impressed with Linfield at all. Our problem was that we were letting them come onto us for the whole of the 2nd half.Originally Posted by higgins
Did'nt see the game - what was Mylers goal like?
Brilliant. Dessie swung a great ball in from the right and Myler volleyed it into the far bottom corner.Originally Posted by iceman
Neither side were impressive imo. Both teams had some very wayward passing and too much aimless stuff espically from Longford, but Linfields defence was hopeless whereas Longford, right back to the keeper, defended quite well. For all their pressure Linfield had very few clear cut chances.
The ref also seemed to give everything Linfields way including some blatantly obvious corner kick/goal kick decisions that were truly bizzare. A good game drama wise but lacking quality imo.
I thought Longford played excellent stuff at times. Myler's goal was class. Linfield put in some "dirty" challenges alright and should have had 2 players sent off.
Paisley scored for Longford against Linfield....who would have thought?
Nope, don't agree, thought we did enough to win it and the Linfield folk I met afterwards thought so too. I agree it wasn't a tremendous game but we put together some good stuff at times and the win meant everything to us, hence a bit of nervousness from us at two nil up. I believe their No. 16 (Duggan?) was caught on camera elbowing Barrett in the face, wonder if there's any come back on that?Originally Posted by higgins

It wasnt a brilliant game but I thought we were the better team certainly in 1st half granted when 2-0 up they started to plug away but the defence and Digger was great
Sean Prunty was unlucky in the 5th min could have got his name on the score sheet but it wasnt to be. Well done to Paisley with the header though.
Mylers goal was superb, great cross from Dessie and a wonderful finish.
There was a great atmosphere for once in Flancare Park, long may it continue and well done to all the Linfield supporters that travelled for the game
Ever get the feelin' you have been cheated?
I didn't think it was a great game quality wise but the atmosphere was quite tense and edgy.Linfield were terrible at the back but were very lively in midfield and tried to knock it about a bit.I don't think we played out of our skins but it was a marked improvement on previous performances but it was the result that was important last night.I have no doubt we can get out of the group but we need to step it up another gear.The referee was shocking and bottled to many decisions.The elbow on Barrett was a disgrace.His decision to award a throw in to Linfield after Sean Prunty was nearly killed was the funniest i have seen since John Stacey's decision to move the ball instead of the wall.I know Longford people whinge about referees alot but some of them defo have it in for Longford and i'm not imagining that.Generally the Linfield fans were great but i was under the impression that Union Jacks and St. Georges cross were banned from these games.The singing of god save the queen and rule britannia were not in the spirit of the game and racially abusing Eric Lavine is unacceptable.Those responcible only let themselves and their club down and are not wanted in football.
On a seperate note i don't think there was 650 Linfield fans at the match.If their was 200 or so were either hiding,out at the chipper van or in the toilet.

Saw last 15mins of 1st half & was entertaining enough. 2nd half was poor but also entertianing in its own way. Linfield defended poorly but once again northern team good attacking.
Weather was absolutely muck & pity ther Linfield fans out in it. Could see some sort of shankill union jack in 2nd half which didn't seem to be in the spirit of the games,
I think the Setanta Cup games have been great tv so far. Fair dues to Linfiedl managers comments on tv after the game.
Anybody else see Tom the Gom in the crowd?
Saw him about 15 minutes in. He was on the sideline to the right of the stand as you looked at it on TV.
Good to see him still making his trips around the country.
I'm what? I'm ants at a picnic?
He's been at all our games so far this season, he got a lift to Belfast with Pat Dolan.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
