Sadly second best in all aspects of the game.
Poor too many men penalty. Sloppy passing in our d zone. Poor back checking by forwards.
No variety and outworked.
Can't say that the scoreline so far was unexpected. Going to take a big effort to turn this game around.

Oh boy!

Well that was awful.

Our aging squad is creaking and taking on huge amounts of water.

Vallerad is blowing already.
Dowd is running on fumes.
Rok has had a mare.

Don't get me started on Armstrong.

I think if these games were 2/3 months ago we would probably win more than we'd lose. As it is now, I don't think we will win more than 1 of the 5.

My expectations were low but holy hell.

This team has been under performing for so long now. It was only a matter of time before we were eventually found out.

Game, set, Match, league title Belfast, poor show Belfast doing a great job of keeping us to the outside you can clearly see the quality difference between Rok and Besko, the first goal was shocking from the outside through the 5 hole. Weve had some chances just not clinical enough a lot of huff and puff from Armstrong amounting to nothing. I’ve turned it off because knowingly the commentator is rather annoying screeching down the mic and to go 3 nil down in an important championship game is pathetic!

We are really missing some dogged, no nonsense players. It's all samey samey, just let it happen.

I would’ve thought the priority for all concerned in this match was not to concede first. Our priority at the moment is not entertainment nor even to plan how to win it’s simply not to lose in regulation and I fear they’ve already failed.

We’re not on a slippery slope, we’re on the canvas and the count is on 9. I wouldn’t have expected it from this side even through our difficulties.

Underway in the 2nd.

Belfast lead 3-0.
