Great game, we were solid in 1st half and weathered an onslaught all against the wind and some very good players, Joe came on and scored with his 1st touch to finish a great break.

2nd half we upped the tempo and scored 3 cracking goals to leave us 4-0 up with 15 to play. Andy (2) and jules with 3 really good goals. We finsihed well by giving them nothing our back four were awesome

Superb performance, everyone was in great form. Four great goals and a clean sheet, can't ask for any more. Bernard made some great saves to keep it at 0-0 which was crucial, and we managed to nick one against the wind, a great bit of skill by Andy and a super finish from Joe. Three more great goals with the wind in our backs in the second half and we completely outplayed them. Deserved win.

Wow. Wasn't expecting that well done and congrats hopefully you can keep it up.

Absolutely fantastic performance from everybody. Admittedly it looked early on that we weren't gonna get much from the game with the wind and their ability to pass the ball well but the defending was superb, as were Bernard's saves.

Second half we played to our strengths - getting the ball forward quickly and using Jules and Andy to hold the ball up. We killed them in every tackle and pressed them into making mistakes. The quality of goals was brilliant too.

Absolutely superb today, one and all.

Inspired substitution made it 1-0 for us in a first half in which our 'keeper (Bernie), back four(Anto - Cathal - Mark - Michael) and holding midfielder (Neil) did brilliantly to deny Mill FC a goal, there was some real pressure on early doors. With the wind against us for the first thirty minutes we did well to use the counter attack, and it came to fruition with the goal. One nil at half time was brilliant.

Second half we knew that with the wind hindering their play we could pressurise their defence, and it paid off - big time. Three well taken goals by our front two (Jules (1)- Andy(2)) made it four nil. I'm trying to foster a nice rivalry between the two, but they're too good natured for their own good!

Solid performances by our attacking midfielder (Simon) and wingers (John - Enda) ensured we had the best possible start we could have envisaged to the league.

First half substitute Joe scored with his first touch, then second half sub Mikie set up the well taken fourth. After an injury to Captain Neil, Jules pushed back into the midfield and Darragh came on to see out the last few minutes up front.

Our three months of preparation has really paid off, and we couldn't have asked for a better start.

Well done lads, and more of the same next week will go down a treat - it's my BIRTHDAY next Sunday.

Fantastic start to the league lads, well done!

Jesus, looking at the league table now, seems like Brompton didn't capitalise on their first half three nil lead, and Templeroan only scored one while playing with the wind.

BUT, even with Boca Plate gaining a 3-0 walkover for the no-show of Athletico Southside, we'll still be top on Goal Difference, which is absolutely fantastic with only eleven games to go

FORZA BOARDEAUX!

I've just put a small match report on the Wiki page.

great stuff last night lads. gutsy performance by all involved in defence in the first half, and we took our chances well when they came, twas pretty ruthless. great saves by bernie to keep it us in it early on gave us the platform to build from. If lads keep finishing like Joe and Andy did we'll be grand.

Haha, love the sarcasm!

"ref got it completely wrong"

Im planning on having a look around the web for the rules concerning keepers etc, when i find it im gonna print it out and hand them to my new fave ref before next weeks game

May aswell include the link to the rest of the rules so he can read them before making up new ones in the future

Gileadi

also whats with the fantasy football type page here http://astro.ie/LeaguePlayerValuations.asp?CompetitionAssociationID=1&CompetitionLocationID=1&CompetitionCategoryID=1&CompetitionID=1257&DivisionDetailsID=1

firstly phil is joint top of the points without being there

also im down as a defender i fully agree with me being the joint 2nd on the table and im wondering how and where do i go about cashing myself in for the 1 million euro?

emc2

I would also like to cash in on some of that. I would be interested in selling some of my image rights for say €250,000 if there a company/gang/mafia that would like in on this (it will cost them alot more if we win the league!).

In a totally unrelated matter on of the Mill Fc players stepped on my hand and it fairly swollen (but not to the size of anto's yet!).
