Going to the Sportsgrounds is a bit like Mass:You stay until the players are off the pitch and never leave early!

The truth is the vast majority of teams don't take the Challange Cup very seriously if they happen to get to the knock out stage then they take it seriously, that's why we went out in the quarter final.
We were Champions two seasons ago, our demise is very sad, imo we are now in the Italian club standard, with all due respect to the Italian clubs who are improving while we have dropped down the pecking order.

The majority of Connacht fans I know (as well as myself) believe that we've gone drastically backwards this season and I, for one, have no confidence that if things stay the same, next season won't be much better. The fundamentals are not right financially and otherwise.
You might be happy winning 'second halves of matches' - good luck to you. But never forget that I have the right to say that what I have seen out of Connacht since basically Christmas has been a load of toss & you ain't gonna change my opinion on that me ol' mucker!!!

there was a lot more than nothing there n the 2nd half, we had them pinned n their half for most of it, if our season ended 4 months ago how were we n a challenge cup 1/4 final a few weeks back ? glasgow have 75 points n the table, we have 34 so losing 35 22 is not terrible in the circumstances

Our second half scores were more down to Glasgow turning off when they knew the game was won.
BTW, why hasn't Ili been involved in the match squad more often this season.

Not all good though, defense in open play was terrible, looked like they could score any time they got the ball. Decision making not brilliant either.
Something to build on anyway.
