1-1.Giving away too many free kicks on the edge of the box again. Could Doherty be playing by any chance?

[Nobby 2]

Oh crud. Really need to put on a display in the second half.

Please try....

The bloody awful Andy Hughes is still in the team  - it says a lot - what do we really expect?

in fact the doc, hughes, thorne, Robinson, etuhu - all poor all playing lots of games - its not a surprise we are in such decline.

as i said earlier this week, i was happy with grants appointment but i am not now. he is way out of his depth, his team selections are crazy and his substitutions are bloody bizarre. league one here we come.

[Citizen Journalist Foghorn 0]

we can do this, come on city!!

[Bongo Boy 0]

PG has to do lewis for earnie soon!..what is there left??.ffs......

[nutty nigel 7,534]

Surely the substitution was made to enable Dublin to play up front?

yes but we have totally dominated over the last 10 mins so something positive has happened, but we have played OK so we need to keep improving.

not that bad according to the comentators. OK a defeat is bad but is sounds like a decent second half performance with lot''s of effort, things won''t be perfect overnight but surely this is better than some of the dross over recent weeks.
