Firstly let me start by saying excellent point and with results below, even better...
To the game, couldn't fault anyone for effort, everyone gave there all,
We played some very neat football in the first half at times, great layoff by bannan for goal and two outstanding touches by Ireland in particular, both these players battled very hard today, honourable mention for gabby who I've criticised lately,,
Defence was excellent, with exception of huttton who wasn't terrible.
Tactics, very poor after goal was conceded but thought his options were limited as midfielders ball retention is so poor,
Thought he did v well today but i have to criticise him again, too many wrong choices on a whole, I feel he played a large part in there goal, we were on the break, Ireland had made a driving run off him and no doubt would of pinned them further back but bannan never released, lost it, lay on the ground.. I know the goal wasn't conceded in their half and there were other chances to clear it but at 1 nil and sitting, ball retention is most important,,, this really frustrated me,
Thought we could of nicked it at the end with a 3 on 2 but for a poor cross field pass...
Happy with result considering the battering taken
