How Prospect did not score is amazing on another day they could have had at least 5 but it's all about taking chances . Shannons weakness is there defense they will eventually leak goals midfield is good got a few pacy players.

were you at the game???

first goal came from a neat bit of play between two of the lads and a fine shot into the corner of the net...there was no hoofing in that....one was a penalty...and the other was a cross into the box which ended up being a headed goal...so in fact none of our goals came directly from "hoofing" as you put it.

Has there been any upsets in the first round games?

Ya i was and the first goal came from a long kick out by the keeper which was headed into the path of the on running eventual scorer who in fairness finished very well. And the other goal came from along throw in which was flicked on and ye eventually scored from a header ,the game was over at that stage anyway. Only for the ref gifting ye that peno would have been a different game. All ye were doing all day was launching the ball from the keeper to the centre forwards all day. But Prospect in fairness tore your defense apart with some great football which on another day would have accounted for a few goals.

i agree with that to a point but when they did create an oppertunity they seemed to pass it off rather than taking the shot on....

Who asked you for an opinion bud and with words like those ..... the words looking for an argument come to mind .....And whats this 'ye' about i was watching this game as a neutral and was just giving my view of the game so just take the bit of criticism and get on with it.

Lads, the man is entitled to express his opinions, thats the whole point of this website..... its about "opinions".............some may agree with them, others may not, but thats life, so get over it.

That said.

Credit to Shannon (however they got their victory), the main thing is, that they are through to the next round, and have now played 3 games in all competitions this season scoring 9 goals and conceeding 0, so they must be doing something wright!!!!

They beat Croom 5-0 at home (the same Croom that ****ed 1B)
They beat Balla "B" away 0-1 (always tough away to any Balla team)
They beat Prospect 3-0 (Prospect are a decent side)

So credit where its due, they're 3 good results.....
