    A lot of bottle showed by the players and unbeaten against two teams expected to be in the top half

    Plenty of improvement needed, but fair play to McCall for at least getting the best spirit in the team since he last left. And Watt looks a good signing

    Ridiculous refereeing, does double jeopardy not exist anymore for AOCs?
    Did he not see the blatant elbow on French?
    Embarrassing from their lad and the ref to send Paudie off for that.
    7 minutes of injury time?

    Was there any contact at all by Paudie with his head? If so, the only result from an appeal would be another match suspension.

    No it's not. The team Jackson assembled before he went was worse.

    There's a touch of irony there, because if you look at that performance, there were far more negatives than positives. A draw after 2 sending off, away from home? Anyone would take that. And we showed some spirit. But both sendings off were moronic, and more worringingly, both guilty parties are garbage players. We showed no quality going forward, we still defended just as badly from set pieces, and any half decent side would have tucked us away even before the red cards.

    This team, and this club, are bang in trouble.

    A great defensive display when we went down to 9 men, I'm not sure many expected any points today (including myself) but without Staunton mistake we would have had all 3.

    I'm amused by the sheer miserable nature of some fans, after two games unbeaten against teams expected to be in the top half, with one of them played with 9 men

    It's as though some (not saying you) want us to be rubbish, so they can prove their point

    I understand that with this terrible pandemic, everyone's a bit miserable - but christ, no-one should read these boards if they are feeling depressed

    Guthrie should have scored to have us 3-1 up.

    Basically he's only playing because Donaldson is unfit.

    The problem with our team is there's problems in every position.

    Defense
    Anthony O'Connor in constant reverse and no right back.

    Midfield
    Not enough central midfielders

    Forwards
    All the same type and don't score enough

    We don't even have a strong part unfortunately.

    No because he made no attempt to play the ball. Double jeopardy doesnt cover deliberate fouls

    Alright Andy, I've put up with your "you knows" , but to be chanting "Barmy Army" when your co-commentator is trying to talk us through a nerve wracking last seven minutes is too much. Also, disregarding their goal, and saying it's more worrying that we're gonna go down to eight men, when it's completely incorrect, is also annoying. Time to watch the game from the stands, or at home, or anywhere other than the commentary box.

    Listened to the home commentary and they seemed to think it was even game until the penalty. No way is the second a red card, I suspect that he barely touched the player. Also worked their socks off to defend with 9 men. Early days, and certainly nothing to justify some of the ridiculously pessimistic comments on here.

    And for a 2nd time we fall for their shithousery, we're unprofesional for not learning imo especially Paudie.
    It's what they do, typical Mark Cooper tictacs. Cooper is 2nd only in w@nker stakes to that 'orrible *@?$ that follows Pedo Evans around
