The wind. It's less of a problem when the ball is on the ground. 

Horrible 

Yeah it's absolutely laughable and agree with you fully.

If anything your first touch and being able to keep the ball on the deck would be as good on 4G suface, again look at the state of the grass pitch in Georgia today.

Even with no wind, the ball still bounces more and moves faster on the astro turf pitch.

Then don't make it f**king  bounce! Short, simple passes, dominate the game and shoot from distance. What you shouldn't do is punt the ball aimlessly into the sky or play hopeful balls into the channels.

Shane Duffy should be banned kicking the ball, he is worse than useless. How a professional player is incapable of passing the ball in a straight line over 20 yards baffles me. Not even going to comment on his angry mate. Telling when Brady came on that Hourahane stayed on the frees until the final one despite Brady wanting to take them. Not a convincing win, but a win nontheless. Move on to Tuesday.

And do you think someone who plays football 6 days a week couldn't get to grips with that?

The wind is an excuse a junior team would make to convince themselves they didn't have to play ball. Keep the ball on the bloody ground and the wind is irrelevant 
They finally did it man... They killed my f**kin' car...

Yeah I was wondering that myself.
He took the goal well but was poor for most of the match.

If they had of scored from that chance I wonder if we had it in us to score 2....

As horrifically bad as that was, i do think we'll put in a performance on Tuesday night. I was happy to hear Mick come out after and basically say we were sh*te too

Maybe he was cupping his ear to ybig? He is a frustrating player, but the stick he gets on here is something else.
