If there was ever a time why you'd question why you support your own club it was last night, obviously not as good for Shels fans but i'd compare it to us losing in the Brandy last year 3:1 but what a game and atmosphere, the reception we got, the whole deal ... supporting your club !!![]()
Us eircom League fans, we're on to a good thing i tell ya !!![]()

David Crawley was nowhere near the foul that preceeded his red card. I can only assume it was for something he said. Silly boy if he did.Originally Posted by EnDai

I'd say the penalty with Stuart Byrne diving to the ground was favourable, the fact that the opportunity was spurned was neither here nor there.Originally Posted by EnDai

Fair summing up. Shels brought a big crowd for a monday night-fair play they kept singing til the very endOriginally Posted by EnDai
Sounds like a classic City Shels game. Unfortunatly Ive had to go to the Milan darby this weekend so couldnt make it, but am delighted at the win. Forza City!![]()
As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.

It's obvious he got sent off for what he said rather than what he did.
Having said that was it Crawley who was tearing the jersey off Behan seconds before that?
City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

A couple of things I thought about the game . . .
1. Shels played the high ball out of defence all night, effectively giving it to Dan Murray. They seem to miss Wes Hoolahan who built from midfield.
2. Kearney did not shine at all, despite getting some decent ball. He took the razzing well I thought.
3. Bad and all as the ref was, his assistant on the Derrynane side did him no favours at all. He missed a couple of obvious fouls by both sides.
4. Top of the class were Danny, Colin, Nults, Hoggie and Fenn.
5. A workmanlike performance from Benno, Murray, Georgie, Gamble.
6. I don't think Woods is able to play a full 90 minutes at this level. Rico needs a new left winger. Are any of the youngsters ready to step up?
7. Softic did alright when he came on.
8. I can't figure Behan out. Half the time he looks like his arse is full of lead, they he does something brilliant out of nothing.
9. The subs bench looked really fresh with Bryan McCarthy, Shane Guthrie, Jamie Nolan and Ray Lally there.
10. There was a small group of English lads sitting beside me in the Derrynane who had flown over from London that afternoon. They loved the game, and said even with the cost of their flight, they got a great night's value. I could say the same for the rest of the people who turned up last night. After that game, which had everything, I expect that average attendances will rise a good lot.

Can't argue with most of the points above.
I can understand the tactics of playing the long high ball. The pitch was very bobbly, and you could never guess when the bobble was going to come. It might explain Murray's errors and Crowe missing a sitter. Really can't understand why Rico didn't have the pitch watered. Yous are a good footballing side and it would surely be to your advantage to have a truer surface.
Wasn't as impressed by Murphy as everyone else here seems to be. Caught in possession a couple of times and made one horrendous clearance across his own area.

That was a strange one alright. I think he was trying to win a goal kick by hitting it off the shels' players legs. He's a solid player and his tackle on Jason Byrne in the first half was immense.Originally Posted by The Sheliban
Pitch was unbelievably bobbly, not really ideal for good football.
I believe a new sprinkler system is to be installed. However its the MFA who organising so maybe it'll be ready by the end of the summer.

I have to say on this point, I was sitting in the Derrynane (middle) and I thought it was a stonewall peno - a definite trip. I couldn't believe when Byrne missed. Then again it was one of those nights for Mark McNulty - I don't think he was ever going to let in one.Originally Posted by razor
