i see on the leeds web site that bray were winning 2 nil at half time.. who scored,, does anybody have the bray line ups. was there m,any changes made at half time cos leeds then scored 3 goals without us scoring again..
RTE says:
Bray Wanderers: Sava (Knight 82); Pender (Knight 80), Foran (Webster half time), Kenny, Cronin (Ivory half time); Coughlan (Whelan 51), Cawley, Robson, Duggan (Myler 73); O'Keefe (Onwubiko 65), Rowe (Dunphy 51).
Leeds United: Lucas; Gardner, Michalik, Marques (Bayly 64), Parker; Douglas, Prutton, Sweeney; Robinson (Howson 75), Haber (Showunmi 80), Johnson.
5,000 at it apparently. Goals by Robson from long range and Rowe.
we lost 3-2 but the 4 games in a week seriosuly took it toll.
Really proud of the lads today.
The woodwork leeds fans were brilliant. Just hope some will show their face at the bray games in the future. As for the travelling fans they were immaculate. Great day by all even if the result didnt go our way.
At least we got some goals. I take it, it was a great money-spinner for the club.

Couldn't face going down myself after Friday night. Here's the report from the club website:Originally Posted by tippex
In a highly entertaining friendly in ideal weather a capacity crowd saw the home side take the lead inside ten minutes.
Mark Duggan's sideline cut-back after interplay with Alan Cawley reached Daryl Robson 25m back. He took a touch and launched a stunning curling ball that initially looked like a cross but looped in to beat David Lucas at his far post.
If the visitors were non-plussed by that, worse was to follow on the half-hour when just after a David Prutton shot was well tipped over by Gabriel Sava for a Leeds corner, Peter Sweeney's flag-kick was cleared for a Bray counter-attack that led to Cawley putting Ger Rowe through in the middle, the latter coolly slotting home under Lucas's legs.
Friendlies are often a game of two halves - the first choice for the first half, and the managers' have-a-looks in the second, which frequently changes the game out of all recognition.
It is futile to speculate what might have happened had Eddie Gormley stuck with the initial selection and treated the match as seeking a result.
But Bray had certainly shown as much attacking ability as, and better defending than, the visitors in the first 45'.
The record has to show, however, that early in the second period an Andy Robinson cross was put out for a Leeds corner which Sweeney played short to Robinson, his cross this time reaching skipper Rui Marques for a devastating header at the far post.
Just another quarter of an hour in, and Bray's defence were caught napping when Prutton - always a danger - whipped in a cross from the end-line which found Marcus Haber unmarked in a position to finish off clinically.
Now back on level terms, and with Bray unsettled by a sequence of substitutions, the latest and most crucial perhaps Brian Kane for Sava in the Bray net just a minute earlier, a shot by Leeds substitute Enoch Showunmi rebounded to fellow newbie Jonny Howson who was clear to fire to the net when the new Bray keeper had barely finished adjusting his towel.
A high-octane stylish encounter before a crowd of 5,500 in unusually bright July weather during Bray's Festival week: apart from a win, what more could one ask?
