That sums it up well. Poor at the back and poor in attack.

Terrible stuff.

Whats wrong with big Shane? Is he injured as well?

He was on the bench. Todd is left footed which is presumably why he was preferred. Same as Sligo away

We're not going to win many games without Duffy, Fats, Patching, Diallo and Dummigan in the starting team no matter who we play this season.

Still early days. If we can't keep the majority of those fellas fit, we won't stand a chance

We had total dominance out there But we played with 9 players. Kelly and Mullan were embarrassing Mc Mullan tried his best but cannot deliver the final ball esp from wide I like his energy and enthusiasm , but his set pieces 8 I counted ….were shocking. mc Iniff ?? Invisible
This tinkering is absurd Coll is a natural L back And excellent too play him there Shane never lets us down, but never mind that drop him …… I smell favouritism here .
I have one theory play your best players. For Kelly and Mullan to play 70 mins was shocking. Castigated by suggesting perhaps the last 35 mins of Waterford game could have been used to eg give Patton a wee run He certainly looked on his shorty shift to night eminently better that the two mentioned. We have A great defence Todd included. I do not hold his mistake against him Shane there great Dunnicam great O Reilly superb Hoban class Then add PODs money and no interferences we should be so good but I suspect a lack of “real know how “in the coaching??? department. Set pieces. large numbers of them EG 12 tonight PRODUCE NOTHING Apart from our Right Back ,a total lack of shooting ability and apart from Duffy who is top class. The CROSSES. if you could call them CROSSES are Great GOD pathetic

No getting away from it but last night was poor from us. Bohs had no great threat other than Dylan Connolly. And the defensive errors are no cover for the overall performance. Don’t understand why we can’t start with the ‘intensity’ the manager often talks about that we need to win games and also don’t understand why Fats & Patching we’re on the bench if fit with a free 2 weeks ahead of us. Disappointing night and we need to do a lot better.

This feels so much like last season, lack of intensity in our play and the only consistency is our inconsistency.

Poor performance. Seemed to be a lack of urgency even when behind. At times the team feel like they are just too conditioned to play any other way.

McEneff not really able to influence a game and might be best as an impact sub.

Looked like a penalty from the stand but Connolly probably made too much of it. Feel sorry for Todd for goal, he struggled after that at times

I like McMullan a lot but his final ball wasn't there last night.

Think Higgins got the lineup wrong. Even after Todd went off, McJannet still seemed to be playing left back.

Its one defeat lads... we wont win every game and Hoban wont score in every game...

We missed Duffy most of all last night for his width and pace on what is a big pitch... I dont know whats wrong with Dan Kelly, as he hasnt really hit the ground running with us... I forgot Danny Mullen was on the pitch until he got subbed... McEneff is a good player but as already mentioned had no impact last night...
No harm but Bohs were rudderless last night and were there for the taking. Forget all this new manager shite talk... we just didnt know how to take it and they capitalised on it... Akintunde forgot himself for a split second after scoring his goal

There will be ups and downs all season... its not over yet...

Your right it is only one defeat but in a season when there will be few soft touches the frustrating thing is that the game last night was there for the taking and if we are serious about winning the league we have to go after these types of games from the start. We were so poor in the first half yet had two of the most creative players in the league sitting on the bench…….

Devine appointed caretaker at Glentoran.

Easy to say its one game... but our performances haven't been great.

There's a few players that just arn't up to the task and the manager needs to find a way to fix that.

Always felt injuries would be our undoing this season and if anything were to happen Hoban then we're done.

Simple I think Coaching if we can call it that is crap

Decky's teams always show early promise. His problem has always been longer term. This job (only until the end of the season) is perfect for him.

Devine is a perfect fit for Finn Harps or Institute. Give it time...

Isn't football management great.
Always a job around the corner, no matter how crap you were previously.

Alan Reynolds for Bohs apparently.
