kildare lasr night

[max power]

well me first game of the season and what do i think, firstly as i thought we have no midfield--- vinny went off in the second half and i didn't even notice for 10 mins.

paddy looked very strong up front but he semed to lack fitness.

i really think we have a gem in gary murphy, his control on the ball, his crossing the works. get him into the gym and build him up !!!!!!!

Mcgovern is a big man and would suit centre back, i don't think right back suited him.

kirby looked good when he came on.

and i will leave my final word on the team for mr dempsey is goals.... put simpley WHAT A DONKEY, he can't even kick out a ball. kildare's goal came from a very poor kick out (from his hands ) which didn't even reach the half way line, this allowed hughes (i think) to gather the ball, run 10 yards and stick it in the back of the net.

just before the end of the first half silke with off with an injury which seemed to be causing him a great deal of pain.


all in all an average performance but the younger players played well. another thing vinny was captain but everyone was shouting and telling eachother what to do ( to many chiefs ).

nice goal by paddy after 2 mins, a cross bicycle kicked into the back of the kildare net, next it was the turn of silke who stuck a header from a corner over the goal line and finally foley witha long range shot which took a deflection and beat the keeper.
