Leinster Final
Posted: Sun Dec 03, 2006 8:01 pm
On the back of this evenings fantasti victory by a Moorefield side which was superior in pretty much every position, I would like to wish the Rhode players well in their future footballing endevours.
With regard to an article posted here last week, written by a "know-nothing-hack" I have to say his comments were insulting and disparraging and were used in the Moorefield dressing room to undo Rhode. Comments like "when this game is dissected and stripped down to the bare bones, Rhode should win." stuck in the minds of our lads as we played controlled, diciplined and attractive football.
"Moorefield on the other hand came into this year’s Leinster campaign on the back of three lean years"
" Both sides can boast of a solid backbone of intercounty performers, but Rhode would be better endowed with “stars”, the McNamees in particular enjoying a level of celebrity not shared by any of their Moorefield counterparts."
What a laugh, where were these so called stars that were so much better than the Moorefiel dplayers? In fact whoever said they were better than our players?
The line that really proved this article was badly prepared and un researched was: "while Moorefield’s underage record has been unspectacular once they get past under 16."
I would like to educate you here. Every layer that played for us yesterday has won at least one Minor and U/21 championship in recent years. With Kevin O'Neill, Kenny Duane, Roli, Paddy Murray and Phil Wolfe winning 3 under 21 titles!
The final quote i will use today "From the heart of Ireland’s racing heartland, they may yet turn out to be that loveable type of thoroughbred that digs deep to just about edge out their opponent by a neck irrespective of how good or bad they are." by jaysus how that line has come back to haunt you. From the first to the final minute this evening, Moorefield were the best team who dominated this over rated Rhode side. We didnt just edge out Rhode, we buried them in the muck at O'Moore Park.
to the know nothing hack I hope you sleep well tonight knowing that your words were used to defeat Rhode today. Word of advise, next time you write a preview, maybe do some research!!
