Matchday 5 - versus Laune Rovers

Cometh the hour, cometh the man.

A second half equaliser from @briantinnion earned TFK AFC a well deserved point against Laune Rovers in an entertaining 1-1 draw at a packed Sandymount Park tonight.

We remain unbeaten but those were our first dropped points of the season.

Squad:
@Bandage[/USER], @[USER=1]Rocko[/USER], @[USER=6]briantinnion[/USER], @[USER=4]Cesc4[/USER], @[USER=1408]Scrunchie[/USER], @[USER=44]spud[/USER] Beag, @[USER=123]Monkey Allen.

That match report doesn’t do that game justice at all. This game had everything.

A high pitched screaming hissy fit from @Rocko[/USER] when @[USER=1408]Scrunchie elected to shoot instead of pass.

A never seen before majestic nutmeg by @Monkey Allen on himself.

A thrilling counter attacking equaliser from @briantinnion

An almost immaculate time elapsing winner from @Rocko[/USER], with a last gasp length of the field attack reminiscent of Meath v Dublin 1991, only @[USER=1]Rocko is no Kevin Foley.

@Scrunchie[/USER], my report was intentionally brief. I was setting the stage for @[USER=6]briantinnion to regale us with an in depth description of his crucial strike.

Please use @taytomurphy93 instead of Spud Beag on future match reports.

There wasn’t much to my goal. Closed down the keeper, forced him into a poor clearance which fell to @Monkey Allen who skewed his shot, luckily it fell to me and I passed the ball into the open goal.

I was so far upfield that I knew I would be out of breath by the time I got back to my position so I immediately substituted myself for Rocko.

Dream of an unbeaten season stays alive.

Skewed shot? Last time I pass to you when I have a chance of a goal.

I may have skewed every other shot but that was a pass. Anyway wasn’t it actually the retreating defender that got the last touch?

I appreciate the proper shoutout @Rocko but Tayto will sufice . I feel honoured to have donned the green of TFKAFC

It’s tremendous to see our youth academy players starting to make inroads into the first team squad and therefore being given permission to post on the astro forum.

The average age of last night’s squad plunged to 32 and that spells trouble for every other team in the league.

You need either 5 first team appearances or 3 first team goals (whichever comes sooner) to post on this forum.

@Rocko[/USER], please delete @[USER=2418]taytomurphy93 's posts.

@Monkey Allen, please take the young man aside and give him a stern talking to.

I apologise for roaring at you @Scrunchie. It gets frustrating when other people don’t see the game laid out before them the way I do.

Trust me @Rocko, you are on a whole level of your own on that score

I don’t like to cause dressing room disharmony but it should be pointed out that @Cesc4 roared at you even louder than I did when you didn’t pass that ball.

My intention there was to let the opposition think I wouldn’t pass you the ball, which worked gloriously when I slipped you through in injury time only for you to just miss wide right.

I see the bigger picture and know the moves you make early in games are stored in the oppositions subconscious and then wham go against the grain and catch them out.

Moving to new thread…

There is a Goalkeepers Union thread that I set up a few months ago. Feel free to post your thoughts and questions in there

What I meant is that I moved my post to the Matchday 6 thread.

I saw that. Was just making you aware of the GK Union thread if you had any goalkeeping related comments, queries or anicdotes to share with the forum
