Big game for the lads. Conor Sinnott suspended I believe. Will be interesting to see the shape of the midfield without him, considering he's played every minute of every game.
They will have the memories of a good result the last home game against Cobh to spur them on, and they'll need all the encouragement they can get against a team in form.
I'd home to take a surprise point from this one, with a good performance and a goal from open play (not asking a lot am I

). 2-2 would be a very good result.

2 goals for the Youths?????? We don't even score that many in the warm-up!

**passinginterest** · 18/07/2007, 1:47 PM

I did say I wasn't asking a lot!

**Sunny Jim** · 18/07/2007, 2:14 PM

We'll do very well to get a draw from this one, and a clean sheet would be nice. So, 0-0 it is then. I'd be happy with that.

**kopite** · 19/07/2007, 9:37 AM

who knows,maybe with sinny out,the ball might move faster from the middle,of course that means we need someone up front,that should be no problem,D.B. our new centre forward can,t move anyway,sorry if his feet moved as fast as his mouth? i'm going for 1-1 if we score first,if we conceed first 8-0.a.m.t.g.b.w.s.

**passinginterest** · 19/07/2007, 9:56 AM

I think I might be down Saturday for the game. I just hope it's not 8-0

**wexman** · 19/07/2007, 10:04 AM

it wont b 8 - 0. barcelona would'nt beat us eight nil with the way we play. we need a top class striker and we havent got one. ill say 2 or 3 nil defeat

**brokenstar** · 20/07/2007, 6:39 AM

I'm looking forward to seeing us play without Sinnott to be honest. Like Kopite said, maybe the ball won't get mired down in midfield and we'll push on a bit more. Taking nothing away from the lad, he's a good player but the timing of his passes and taking too much out of the ball can be bloody frustrating. I'll be there Sat too... Come on the Youths!

Well 0-0 have to be pleased with the result. I got 2 reports one from my Dad and one from a mate, who was at his first home game (he came to the Shels match in Dublin with me).
According to my Dad it was one of the best performances so far. He said Cobh players didn't really look up for it and Wexford were more than a match for most of the game. Only about 20 mins in the second half when Cobh really looked dangerous.
My mate reckoned we played for 0-0 from the start and had 11 men behind the ball most of the time. According to him Joey Wadding had the only real chance with a header. He was hugely impressed by O'Loughlin (my Da said he had a great game too) and reckons he'd make it in England. Oh ya he thinks Marty Kelly is wasting his time and could be making a name for himself with the hurlers

**bellavistaman** · 23/07/2007, 11:02 AM

heard the same bout the men behind the ball, bit disapointing to hear that but it worked so how bad, mick Wallace was in cobh sundasy for 21s and i have to say what a legend, everything hes doing for wexford and his non-******** behaviour on the sideline didnt see him **** a player out of it all game.All smiles and jokes,and his celbrations when they got the 3rd had to begrudginly laugh and applaud. The hole wexford thing is brilliant to see even the support at 21s was very good. Well done all.

**wexman** · 23/07/2007, 11:06 AM

best performance from us so far even though 0 - 0. didnt miss sinnott one bit. o loughlin was far better in midfield gettin the chance to run at their back line. we still need a striker. looks like we are cobhs boogey team. its a long time since a home win & we just dont look like we are ever going 2 score. wallace raised his fist to the fans after the game as if we had won. If not gettin beat at home is a result in his eyes we will b in the new bottom tier nxt year or yr after

**bellavistaman** · 23/07/2007, 11:09 AM

for a club who doesnt pay its players, first year in league, drawing with 2nd who are unbeaten in 18 is a good result IMO.

**wexman** · 23/07/2007, 11:14 AM

cobh were v poor the other nite is it true ye were missin four or five players??

**bellavistaman** · 23/07/2007, 11:20 AM

didnt see the line-up, but our best player so far john Kearney was out, massive loss. John Meade got injured in the warm up i heard, hes been in top form. And davin o neill was suspended who is on his day possibly one of the best players i the league, but Wexford away isnt the sort of game he shines in. Definitly 3 out, will check it out.

We must have been good, that's half a positive quote, if only you could have kept it going

.

Unfortunately my plans changed and I didn't make it down, but I like the Saturday evening kick offs and I should make one soon.

Any estimates of attendance? My Da said about 500.

**wexman** · 23/07/2007, 11:29 AM

its hard 2 know with attendance. a lot of empty seats but a lot standin & behind the goals i would say 400 - 500 is close. tough couple of games ahead with athlone away & limerick at home hopefully we can gain some points

**wexfordseagull** · 23/07/2007, 10:30 PM

official attendance 366.we also had an excellent chance to score in 1st half with a header and had one kicked off the line near the end,best i've seen all season.
