Shels v Sporting Fingal Playoff

If I ever see Anto Flood in a Reds jersey again I will puke. His lack of discipline has cost us a huge amount of potential points in games he's played, and his mouth is the reason we had no first choice striker available when we dropped 2 points at home to Athlone.
I love Peter Hynes. There, I said it. I've been saying it all year, the man is fantastic for us, and brings the midfield into our attacking play. His first touch is excellent, and he gets on with the job in hand without turning into the Incredible Sulk if things aren't going his way.
I think Dermot will walk, which is fair enough, it has to happen at some stage. If he does, much credit and thanks to the man for all he has done for us over the years.
Players I'd kill to see remain at the club; Deano, McAllister, Hynes, Synnott (currently on loan, no chance), Nipper.
As for Giller, I heard he was on the team sheet to be starting, and never turned up.
I'm shocked Darren Quigley was allowed to play, but it wouldn't have mattered, the only thing he had to do all night was face a penalty. We didn't test him all night, for all our early posession we never worked him, while Fingal hit the post and worked Deano when they broke. The difference in quality was really shown up tonight.
As for Gary O'Neill, quite literally my favourite player at Shels when he was with us, I loved his work ethic and admired his skill, but I was disgusted by what he reduced himself to tonight. Beyond that, I'm disgusted at myself for ever having felt anything but seething hatred and disgust for the player.0 -

Hynes will never score 20 goals a year, you're probably looking at about 7 or 8 tops, but he will create tonnes of chances for his team mates. Quite how he gets stick for this I'll never know!The stick he gets is unreal. Put him beside a good striker and you'd see how effective his passing really is. Also his goal in Santry was sublime.Paulw wrote:He was cleared by the FAI to play in the game. Any potential issues there relating to Derry were sorted long before the game tonight. He was never in any risk of not playing.
Aye, I reckoned Fingal had done their homework by the time he took to the pitch, but still!

Awful decisions? Like not booking the Fingal player who gave away the penalty, as he'd been booked earlier?antomorro-sei wrote: »Eh. He gave you lot a peno, for something that happened outside the box. Along with an awful lot of other decisions. 'Nuff said.
Really? And why must have I been there?
I'm not saying that changed anything, just saying he was shocking overall, and ridiculously poor for both sides. How many yards could Fingal steal with every bleedin' throw? :eek:

It was a second yellow anyway. But from where I was sitting it seemed very inocuous, Bisto was doing what any player would do, getting the ball back to the centre as quick as possible to get on with the game, and whether he pushed the keeper or not Quigley was still being a fool for getting in the way, and the defender who booted the ball towards the stands was just as bad, so from that perspective it was harsh, unless Bisto did actually strike rather than push?antomorro-sei wrote: »Haha in fairness, Bisto milled the Fingal keeper.
Was it a straight red or second yellow? I didn't notice

Yeah, I dunno like from where I was it look like he hit him rather than pushed. But I dunno, suppose we'll see if there's highlights.
Once Bisto got sent off though, yous were fooked. Silly thing to do in such a big game!0 -

He resigned as CEO. He's on the Board of Directors still.
In what way am I wumming? :rolleyes:
You said "group of morons" and "shambolic fans" or something along them lines, not me. I went to the game, came home, and posted my opinion of it on here and just because you don't agree... I'm wumming :rolleyes:0 -

Same old Shelbourne always cheating
I thought the ref had a shels shirt on and the lineswoman wasnt any better. He was the worst ref ive seen and hadnt clue. The pitch was in bits, groundsman didnt get paid or what?
I knew that the ref would give shels a penalty if a Fingal player came within a yard of a shels player near the box. It wasnt even a foul and it was outside the box.
On a happier note, im glad it was Sporting Fingal that beat Shelbourne in their last match at tolka Thats a nice one for the history books.
We have won nothing yet but barring a nightmare against Bray i think we should win over the 2 legs.
What is the deal with the real football real fans banner?
You dont play real football and your fans are glory hunters. Not much glory for them for a while yet.0 -

Ah come on, the officials were just shocking all round, not biased towards either side. There were some disgraceful decisions given to both sides, for example the ref bottled giving Paisley a second yellow for the penalty decision and some of those free kicks Zayed was winning 20 yards out were highly questionable!
The weather of late had effected the pitch, I'll try to ignore your childish comment that followed and not take the bait.
The banner read "Real football club, real fans", for the record. It hopefully won't need explaining.
Glory hunters? Yeah, that's why we all still turn up week in week out, home and away, in the graveyard division, watching the tripe served up to us. I'm pretty sure we've had more up in Ballybofey than your own club has had at some home games this season - a little bit of perspective would go a long way. We may not have the largest fan group, but our fans our loyal and passionate.
It's nice to see that grace in victory is alive and well, :rolleyes:.0 -
It was an advertisement for a real Football Club even the most faithful Shels fan will admit we play hoofball.pokerface_me wrote: »Real footbal fans banner:D
If that was an advertisment for real football last night well i'll eat my hat, i've seen better football in my local park and actually i've seen better pitches in my local park too:cool:
How bad was Brennan again last night, we where outplayed by a better team. Hopefully the club can stay together over the winter and we come back fighting again next year with a new manager at the reigns.
I for one hope Franchise get promoted.0 -

Jesus, stay classy.
And labelling Shels fans still there singing on their team after two years of Division 1 "glory hunters" is beyond lol. Just a horrendous post.0 -
In fairness our fans only show up for the glamor of LOI first division football. Take away the fairytale trips to Athlone and who'd still be around? Be honest now
cymro you are another reason I dislike your franchise, and as for the ref correct me if I'm wrong but he was the one who gave Finn Harps the phantom peno in ballybofey in the summer which robbed us of 2 points.0 -
