Gutted, I heard we were on the back foot since the goal. Bray will have to be 3 points now.
The ony good news is that harps are 2 down to Sligo. There are only 3 points seperating the bottom 4 now. It's going to be some battle!
1-1,Matt Gregg just scored 4 mins into injury time

We control by attitudes positive mental attitudes not by rules.
strange one to see johnny meade and kenny coleman dropped , they were our two best players against pats, coleman was captain, dont see why you change the back four when they were playin well together![]()

thats 4 points we lost to ucd or should say gregg. with his peno save in the 1st game and his goal last nite. fair dues to him, good player for ucd to have.
Matt Gregg relives his heroics here
I find this quote particularly disturbing:
"All the lads tried to rugby tackle me but all I thought about was getting back to my goal", he said afterwards. "I just attacked it. I don't know what happened. I wasn't challenged. I just headed it and saw the net was empty. I didn't know what to do, it's not as if I practice my celebrations!"

LESS OF THE BULL NOW!
Had a good laugh reading through this thread, thanks for that! This was one of the best...
Optimism is admirable and all that, but reality really is needed. Cobh were the worst team to visit Belfield all season (we don't count obviously). Youz were given a debatable penalty (opinion was divided as to whether Gregg got the ball first), put ten men behind the ball, lost possession twice as quicly as we did and created nothing for the remainder of the game. Looking forward to seeing the chance on the stroke of half time again - talking to someone behind the goal who said the defender saved with his hands, which obviously would be a peno and a straight red.
Our front line were horrific again - about the only thing youz predicted right - but with goalscoring keepers, we can even get over that if we have to!
I like Cobh as a club, and the away game was one of my favourite of the season, but I can't see any way out of the bottom three for youz - simply not good enough. If it weren't that there were four unusually poor teams, you'd have sunk without trace a long time ago.
Was it the two John's who came on?
McCarthy, Carey, Lally, Murray, Guthrie, O'Halloran (Kearney 79), O'Brien, D O'Neill, O'Shea (Coleman 74), Gaynor, Kavanagh (Meade 86)
Am I missing something why was John Meade a sub?? Carey is having a nightmare run and john doesnt start. Did he have a knock??
he must have been injured cos he played very well against pats thought it was a strange one alright him and kenny not starting
Given this team I do actually worry has our Manager lost the plot.
Kenny and John had great games against Pats why make such changes for a game we needed to win!!
Bilko keeping was a joke. Crazy

Have to agree it was an appalling effort from bilco he wud wanna be ashamed of himself,cost us the game no doubt about it.If we had a replacement we wouldnt be so bad but were stuck with him.....He needs to be thought to stay away from crosses he only catches an average of 40/50% just not good enough.Watever is up wit Hendo and this little rotation policy he seems to have started he better drop it fast before the doubters start to voice their concerns fxxk loyalty carey needs to be dropped fast.
a discipline problem is what is being rumoured?

they couldnt see gregg he is only 6 foot 7 blond hair and wearing an all red kit. bilco looked like he was comin out to shake his hand he certainly wasnt going for the cross. we looked so negative on mns footage not really what you want to see when you are playin ucd

[quote=ramsfan;985946]a discipline problem is what is being rumoured?[/quote]
Is this why Hendo was thinkering with the starting line-up?. Was very surprised wen i saw the line-up. John Meade has been the most consistent player ive seen this year and wasnt he also player of the year last year. Cant understand why he would be dropped unless it was for other reasons as you are hinting at. Kenny played a stormer last game and den get dropped for UCD . . . wats going on der???.
Have to say Hendo's messing around with the team amy be costly come November. U play your strongest eleven ALWAY's!.
If there is some discipline then fine a player or run his ass off in training dont banish him from the team, especially if thay are our better players.
From watching MNS the commentator summed us up in on line -''and after the penalty that was the end of Cobh's attacking''.
FCUK sake why did we go back to 4-5-1, we had UCD on the back foot, just scored, they were shakey, and wat do we do.
Change formation and play back into UCD's hands . . . NO!, the U-10's Rams know this . . . you get at them again straight away and try build on your advantage!!!.
It was like we were shutting up shop!-we cant play this way.
Rico made referenece to it previously, ''Cobh seem to go out and pack the midfield and try stop teams scoring, but when they do score, Cobh dont appear to have a plan B.
Its about time now we stopped worrying about other teams scoring and went out and did it ourselves, after all the idea of the game is to outscore the other team, BY GETTING THE BALL INTO THE 24'x8'(goals).
