Clockwork Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I should have recognised it, I've been there. Maybe it's been redeveloped in the last 36 years... Barry Gray does a Frank Lampard and lambasts his players - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60821656 Not sure how that will pan out.Yep, it’s hardly a motivational approach eh? [emoji15]"Whether we turn out a good performance or not against Linfield it will still be irrelevant at this point to us."He’s right though, they’re doomed but they still need to stick together as a team (including the Manager), perhaps Gray knows his second stint at Milltown is coming to an end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coleraine fight back from 3-0 down and hit the woodwork 3 times but Glenavon prevail. Dungannon Swifts 2 Crusaders 4.

Clockwork Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Northern Ireland 0 Hungary 1 Decent turnout and game at Windsor tonight. A number of very good chances spurned and one careless mistake proving costly though. Barraclough’s side is gradually starting to take shape though, after a succession of retirements amongst his predecessor’s old guard. Plenty of positives from his young team tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Glentoran 6 Carrick Rangers 2 - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60908939 Goals - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/60908940At least Carrick kept going despite going behind so early and then being 3-0 down at the interval I suppose. Their defensive frailties are there for all to see though. Decent finish from young Lloyd Anderson to briefly give the Ambers the smallest glint of hope. Crucial post-split games coming up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may well be an anomaly in the system that should have flagged up Crowe’s ineligibility, but Dundela were kicked out of the cup in Jan following their first round win over Ards in similar circumstances. Do they just redraw the whole competition? I can’t see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksgranda Posted April 2, 2022 Author Share Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) Cliftonville 1 Crusaders 2 in the semi-final. Not the rip roaring contest I hoped for, but a good game, nevertheless. Crusaders deserved it, although the Reds had a goal wrongly disallowed for offside in the first half. It was tight but wasn't offside. The earlier offside "goal" was offside, however. (Equally tight.) https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60962518 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/60962698 And Glentoran won't let go - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60953678 Edited April 2, 2022 by Jacksgranda Update 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballymena won’t have it all their own way at Mourneview but expect them to line up against Stephen Baxter’s side in the final and challenge his quest for a hat trick of Irish Cup wins as a Manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant be many Strikers in British League Football that can match his strike rate over his two spells with Cliftonville. A proper old fashioned forward, drags defenders all over the box, great to watch. Saturday’s teatime kick off at Solitude Vs Linfield should be a cracker!! 2) Can’t see how even an appointed arbitrator can help in unraveling the Glens Cup exit fiasco. If they are readmitted to the contest by replacing or replaying Newry, the completion has become a complete farce. They would need to replay to whole fixture list from the round one draw(as previously mentioned Dundela’s expulsion Vs Ards) to retain any credibility and integrity the competition has left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Two huge games tomorrow,[mention=22050]Jacksgranda[/mention] at Solitude in the Premiership, Cliftonville Vs Linfield and Annagh United Vs Newry City in the Championship. A double header for the top two. I’m going to go Cliftonville to beat Linfield 2-1 and a 1-1 draw at the BMG! Thoughts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 A draw at Solitude and Glentoran to close the gap! Newry to win in the Championship. Meanwhile, Coleraine's season dribbles away, 3-0 Larne. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/61048001 Goals - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/61039823 Bonis has certainly scored a few since his big money transfer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
