probally only 1-2 but they would only be used as cover if a team needed them .. and it looks like they dont need them

**shelbourne1904** · 12/10/2007, 1:44 PM

Much more likely to come from the Youths/17s team

Wardy would probably be the best of the B-team, he also has played with the A-team in the past. He is as fast as any Premier player but has only come back from a few years absence.

Interesting comment, considering both sides missed 3 good chances to win the game, I think we did very well. We finished very strongly and were unlucky with a chance at the end of normal time. For the record, Glin had to turn their jersey's inside out due to a clash of colours (some laugh considering last weeks incident

) and their pitch was a disgrace, never played in grass as long as it was yesterday. One of their players got badly injured in the 3rd minute, broke his leg in 3 places and the game was delayed for nearly 90 minutes. Our spotters were excellent with Darren Whelan pulling off one save and they blazed one over. All in all, a win on the road in the FAI is always hard fought against other premier teams.

Spoke to one of your lads this morning, he tells me Terry Duggan ran the show from midlle of park, bad injury for the Glin player, surprised the referee didn't abandon the game! Ye look like being very strong from now on with John Coen, Brian Donellan, and Stephen Monaghan coming in to the team.

any win away from home is a good result.. what is your take on bad injury delayed game for 90 mins// after such a bad injury it would be extremly hard for both teams to get up for game ,, would ref have been better off caling match off..

**devilfish** · 15/10/2007, 10:40 AM

Ya, Terry played very well but was wrecked going into the last 15 mins (think the stamp of the Knights on his hand had something to do with it!!

) Himself and glynno dominated the middle for most of the game. Richie Lillis was outstanding in defence, won every ball that came his way. The injury was a strange one, I think it was the way he fell or his studs got caught in the horrible long grass. It happened after only 3 mins. He was unable to move and refused to be carried (can't blame him in fairness). Both teams then stood around waiting for an ambulance. However, while it was en route from Limerick, it got re-directed to a car crash and had to bring the injured to the hospital and then drive back to Glin. The game re-started at approx. 4.15pm. The ref was asked about the ruling as we were under the impression the game had to be abandoned if an ambulance was called but he insisted it had to be played. Overall, a decent game under the circumstances.

A handy 3 points? Wouldn't think so now. I've seen this Rineanna team a few times so far and they will be right up for the derby with Shannon FC

on Sunday.They are as dogged as any in the league and despite having no major stars and being missing some lads, they havnt been easy for any team to beat really this year so I don't see how it's going to be so easy for Bunratty,like they haven't shown anything special this season to date
