The FAI have really served the league well tonight! They should be ashamed.

Mission accomplished for Delaney as well, seeing his favorite team lift a trophy in his shiny new stadium while ruining whatever shred of respect our league had before tonight. Dunno who voted him back in.

If I was a United fan, that "trophy" would be the excuse for me to go out on the batter tonight.

Mister men

Just got a text from a friend at the game. Said the stadium was devoid of any atmosphere for the entire match. Was it the game or is the new stadium a flop?

Wonder if the FAi will release a commemorative DVD of tonights game...

Well I'd imagine most of the people there weren't exactly used to going to games so I'd say that was a massive factor.

No. Just that the team wasn't up to much and there was nothing to shout about. Wait till next week when theres proper teams there.

Oghhh jaysus. Pure Fr. Ted. I don't think we'll get much English out of him....

The legendary hero, Dave Mulcahy, is now the only player to score in the last match at the old Lansdowne and in the first match of the new Lansdowne Rd.

Call him up, Trap.

Jaysus, Powell had a complete disaster against Valencia. Some of these replays are fierce damning!!

Ah here, I'm not even trying to make that sort of point. I'm not blaming him or belittling the challenge he faced. Just interesting to see a player get so badly beaten by his immediate opponent. That's all.

dsmythy

You won't see Rovers whacked 7-1 by Juventus. Not even on aggregate. You might see Bohs thumped by a Welsh team though. I don't know. It depends on the game and the day that it is I guess.

Bohs fans reckon hes been **** all season since he didnt get his move across the water.

i just want a left footed player we are top of the league and dont have a left footed player playing regularly

Could he play left mid? He looks comfortable on the ball, pacey, all that stuff. I remember watching him closely in the Red Bull Salzburg game last year and he was great going forward but was targeted a bit when Bohs didn't have it.

You said (accurately) earlier in the thread that most LOI clubs would struggle in the Championship. Why then do you expect a player like Powell to keep a player at the one of the best clubs in the world in his pocket?

Didn't catch the game but will have a gander at the player tomorrow.

@dreamers75: are youse in for Powell?

Wonder will MNS show it? Or even have Rico on the panel.
