Damien Duff rebuked his own player Shane Farrell following his red card against Shamrock Rovers.
Gavin Cooney DAMIEN DUFF ISSUED a stinging rebuke to one of his own players in the aftermath of Shelbourne ’s 0-0 draw at home to Shamrock Rovers.
Shels therefore played the last 20 minutes with 10 men, but held out for a point that keeps them top of the league, three points clear of Rovers, Derry, and Bohemians. “Here, I am always honest privately and in public”, said Duff about Farrell. “He knows he has let everyone down. I used to laugh about his diet in year one, the chicken fillet rolls, whatever. That time has passed now. How you live your life off the pitch and how you train usually gets shown up on a match night, and it did tonight.”
“I get he’s a fan’s favourite and what have you, but he hasn’t deserved to play”, said Duff. “Not one bit. Flashes. I could go on and give you a flash: I’m 45 and I can’t walk. It’s a hundred minute game nowadays, so flashes aren’t good enough for me.
