... the players made a brief seond half flourish, but with ten minutes to go we gave up the ghost and Monaghan were unlucky not to score again.
Monaghan United are a joke. Several of their players are overweight, with the number 7 making Tony Folan look like Karen Carpenter. Their players bus arrived from Dublin at 7.05pm. This is the second time in a row that they have arrived late at a game against GUFC. This is the second time in a row that they have beaten us. However, they were far more committed than us, had a game plan, and stuck to it.
We may be making progress off the field, but football is played on the field. Players lack motivation and there seem to be no discernable tactics. Despite E10,000 a week being spent on the running of the club, and the best facilities being placed at our players disposal we continue with an amateur ethos.
At present, Galway United are unwatchable. We have won three, yes three, home games, this season. There will have to be changes to the playing and management staff, quickly, or the club will become like Monaghan and Athlone. Season tickets sale will plummet. The 300 plus who attended last night are the hardcore, many, like me, are on autopilot. We are immune to the torture inflicted on us.
