A couple of your lads had refs whistles at the last game, i saw some people giving out to them and they got dogs abuse

any chance you could have a word as it:
WILL Get the club in trouble,
A rovers player could stop running when he hears a whistle/ cost us a goal
Its poor form in general

Cheers!

tough game tonight i think, id say cookie will definitely rest a few players with cork city game coming up, still think the squad is strong enough to cope though...i hope! Galway will also have something to prove after the hammering they got a few weeks ago and they got a very good result against derry, im going with rovers to get a 2-1 win:)

I'd hope we still do put out a strong team as the League cup is there to be won not sure if Peers is available

I'd go with
Jennings
Coleman McKenzie Ventre Foy
Cash O'Grady Murphy Moore
Faz Judge
with Boco , Butler Brushy Almeida and Raf on the bench

With all due respect, they sound like a great Ballroom Dancing team.

Where were you Saturday? There were no high heels to be seen! I was looking EVERYWHERE for you..... well, no I wasn't, I was following the wee man ALL around the Showgrounds! We ended up going home at half time (me and the wee man)due to sheer exhaustion on my *cough* I mean his part.....

Don’t know what you’re talking about but it had nothing to do with Forza Rovers if some individuals have whistles and use them it’s up to the stewards to remove them. We’re not going getting involved in policing/stewarding matters in the Showgrounds especially when it wasn’t organised by Forza Rovers

Was there not the odd whistle in Finn Park too?

there was one guy with a whisle and nobody paid any attention (players i mean) to that. a shame though coz he only used it when the sham had the ball. dont really think it does any harm. i was more anoyed with the guy telling people to sit down when they ran forward out of excitement. he was in the bit where every one is standing anyway. some people should stay home and watch the match from there!

what a horrible way to be knocked out on penalties, keith foy missed a penalty in last minute or two of regular time(awful game by the way), another 30 mins of uninspiring stuff in extra time and then the agony of penalties, good turnout from the mature ultras by the way:rolleyes:

so you were the only one then? We're going to cork though!

garth-marenghi

If an opposition player stops or uses the whistle as an excuse for a mistake THAT is when the club would get the trouble & serious at that, history of clubs/countries across world getting trouble for crowds using whistles.

And yes it does do harm, for reason above and its poor sportsmanship, it is a sport isnt it!?

Doesnt sound like the game was that great so maybe ye had a lucky escape!, Still must have been a serious downer after travelling that distance, The mature ultras can always make up for it at Bray Game on Saturday (if any turn up this time;))

garth-marenghi

happy days, shams in the cup:D, would have been nice to get them at home but the trips to dublin are usually good to say the least, if we get a game half as good as last years one il be happy, cmon the Bit O Red, Nice to see tardelli and trapatonni making the draw

tuppence

Well so whos going on Saturday?






And do we have to dress up!

I think the mature ultra who missed the cork game is thinking of resigning his membership of the group because of a lack of been mature enough and also after witnessing some shocking behaviour of other ultras on a recent away trip in the photo below, we are meant to be respectable fans:p

big game tonight, with a win we can go into 4th place ahead of teams like cork, drogs and shams, and i think if people were offered that before the start of the season we would have snapped their hands off, well done cookie and the lads:), am going for a 2-1 win for the Bit o red,

guinnessdrinker

I think 1 nil to Rovers with Almeida scoring from a corner.

tulipandthistle

Blurgh! I've eaten too much ice cream!:(
I wonder how they are getting on? Mr Tulips phone is on the blink so he can't keep me updated....... maybe one of the mature ultra international supporters should bring their laptops to the game to share the experience...?..

YeatsCounty

It's 2-0 to the Rovers atm, game's just about over.

tulipandthistle

Thanks! That is brilliant!!!

Are you there with your laptop?

Mint Sauce

not a bad result considering it wasn't a great performance, 3 - 0.

Hah, I wish!

I would have been at the game tonight except I'm in the middle of exam fever, where the only cure is revision.....plus I wokes up at 2:30 this morning to continue revising for a 9:30 AM exam, so I'm pretty out on my feet right now.


PS: I got my ticket to the legends match at the Galway League Cup tie. Boo yeah.

garth-marenghi

dont forget the pats game is on the friday night due to the game between ireland and serbia on saturday, really hope there is a huge crowd, would be a major disapointment if there isnt considering how well the team is doing so everyone make an effort to drag as many people as possible along on friday! would be happy with a point but Pats are missing a few key defenders so ya never know, am going with a 2-1 rovers win:)
