    Is there anywhere else besides Eir where I could stream the match..? tia

    This has been a bad start. With the wind as well. Very open defensively.

    Absolutely brutal.

    Awful tripe.

    When you see your keeper hesitating with restarts you know theres very little coaching going on.

    Saw nothing under Joyce last year so suggest we were going to make any sort of improvements.

    Going to get struggle to win a single game in 2021 based on this 15mins.

    Another huge embarrassment....

    This is bloody awful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Moynihan again standing in 10 yards of free space for the 2nd time. They get the goal this time.

    Anyone fancy marking anyone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,027 ✭✭✭ShamNNspace


    Hard listening to this


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,415 ✭✭✭h2005


    Maybe Kevin Walsh wasn’t that bad after all. This is woeful. Men against boys.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Should have been 3rd goal there. Kerry with free players everywhere.

    Kick a ball into the 45, and risk losing it only to recycle it back outside the 45.

    The balls being kicked into the corners would remind you of hurling, and they'd be decent balls as you can pop them over easy but in football they're a waste of time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Should have been 4 goals. Kerry miss another sitter. Moynihan again in acres of space.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Galway lucky to only be 10 down at the break to be honest. Kerry have missed at least 3 great goal chances.

    Farcical how much space they are giving Kerry.

    Difference between a team training for months and one training 2 weeks though

    Bernie's kickouts giving me pure Vietnam flashbacks

    It has nothing to do with training.

    No difference to last year and the issues are structural and not physical.

    Even if you trained one night youd hardly expect to get ran over from the first minute.

    Galway must have tired themselves out after all those months training. Kerry coming in nice and frest after 2 weeks. Fair play to em


  • Posts: 6,581 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Nice one, the ref has issues with his equipment. Hopefully this kills 5 or 10 mins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,027 ✭✭✭ShamNNspace


    A depressing listen, a long time since ive been so despondent over a galway performance .. I wont be watching it later


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Embarrassing to be honest. Galway have approached this with less intensity than a challenge match in early January to open a ground. Kerry players picking off scores with nobody within an asses roar of them. Zero pressure on the ball. Zero tackling.

    Joyce in the build up to this match complained about the lack of training and preparation they have done for this upcoming league campaign.

    No way are Kerry this fit from just 4 weeks of training

    Nothing stopping Galway players from training on their own. They don't even look remotely fit. So many things wrong they're impossible to count. Not a hope, I mean not even a sniff they'll beat Rossies in July. Shocking.

    I don't care how fit they are. Or how unfit Galway are. The game was over before ever anyone had chance to get tired.

    They’ve spent all winter training on their own.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    No exaggeration to say Kerry could easily have had 9 maybe 10 goals today.

    Most division 4 sides wouldn’t be that bad and I’m not joking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,961 ✭✭✭BENDYBINN


    Joyce should seriously consider his position tonight........it’s just a joke now.

    Galway making a habit of losing by 20 points to the top teams like Kerry and Mayo in the league.

    Absolutely. When you think of it the loss to Mayo was even worse given their status as a second tier team. Shocking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,893 ✭✭✭Happyilylost


    Happy for Power. Not his biggest fan but the amount of times I seen him hop the wall in Loughgeorge over the last number of months with a couple of footballs I'm happy he put in a performance. Rest isn't worth talking about. Next week tells it all.
