From what I saw today, I was deeply disappointed.Roberts to me and Craney to a point, were showboating and losing the ball every time. I have said this before, they should keep it simple and stop trying to beat the opposition on their own.Yes we started like we meant business, but after conceding a soft goal, the team went to sleep and allowed 'Dale the upper hand for the next 40 minutes or so. Then we came awake again when Mangan and Doherty came on and looked more purposeful leading up to the penalty and there-on until the end of the match. The referee in my book truly spoiled the game by not knowing the rules. Unfortunately it wasn't Mullin who was offside, it was the player who passed him the ball who was off (Mangan?). Agree with others who have said we need a proven goalscorer to help the team out.
My team for Friday would be Dunbavin, Edwards, Richardson, Welch, Rocky (not a fan of his, but he is playing well at the moment) Brown, Cavanagh, Proctor, Doherty, Mangan and Mullin - subs Roberts, Harris, Craney, Foyle and hopefully Elliot or Ventre if Robbie not fit.
