tree hugging hippies hope the Police go all mayday party on them.

major bill

got an invite on facebook to head up to the protest outside the ground tommorrow...could be a messy one

dfx-

I don't think any Rovers fan cares if there's hugging hippies outside the ground, but inside the ground...

Hopeful for Rovers, I think (fear) that not conceding a goal will take precedence for MON

Be more worried about some stupid hippie getting onto the pitch to continue their protest.

They can be dangerous in large numbers!

Good luck tomorrow (today) lads, rivalries aside I hope yous do well, good for the league all round.

Any idea if SRFC TV are doing a stream of the game?

Yes, live pictures and audio

Lookin forward to slap a hippy day

stovelid

Fucking mongos.

Love it if one of them got thrown down the steps but it would just be bad publicity for the club.

super_furry

Absolute shower of idiots. Never been inside a League of Ireland ground in their life, but trying to hi-jack one of our biggest games for years. Just let them try to take out their banners inside the ground.

major bill

just a question could rovers recieve a fine if any protest does happen????

im sure a few rovers will have palestinian flags inside the ground but the hippy brigade could fcuk things up for you especially the away leg cos i heard that shower are nutters.

They could be banned from Europe, UEFA does not take kindly to this type of thing. Any actions by the hippies could seriously **** up Rovers in Europe.

Kinda ironic in a way.

But i do hate tree huggers more than Rovers fans

Edit: You drew Juventus

super_furry

Juve. Now there's an away trip worth going on.

iregk

Oh hell yeah. Here is hoping we get through in the away leg but its going to be very difficult. I can see another call to move this somewhere else now providing we make it.

If Rovers get through do you reckon ticket holders from the game last night would get priority?

Nah, it'd be members and season ticket holders.

iregk

Members and season ticket holders and rightly so. Whats left will go onsale at half time in a league match before it.

Hopefully in games like this, members and season ticket holders will take up their full ticket allocation and try and make sure the tickets get into the hands of Rovers-leaning or at least other LOI supporters.

All this is a bit academic. I think Thursday is a bridge too far. Would love to be proved wrong though.

Have to agree, cant see it happening. We can but dream.

iregk

I also sadly agree. Just can't see us doing it but have hope.

I close my eyes
Then I drift away
Into the magic night
I softly say
A silent prayer
Like dreamers do
Then I fall asleep to dream
My dreams of Juve

You'll need Google translator for the usual idiosyncratic translation.

Vid is in English btw

is the match on tv at all?

super_furry

Afraid not. I'm veering between bleak acceptance and wild optimism. If last week's game is anything to go on, we'll struggle - especially in the 30+ degree heat. But part of me still feels we can nick it.

It is on Satellite TV:

If its on TV its inevitable that there will be a stream somewhere on the net.

They are also showing it in the Maldron.

We're the better team here.

stovelid

Great chance there.

The Israeli football-viewing public are getting a crash course in Rovers songs anyway.

Rovers well in this. Weirdly enough, the slower pace of their game probably suits us in that heat.

3hn2givr7mx1sc

Solid performance in the first half, we definately have a chance of winning it.

digme

If the humidity is really low id say they're grand.

Manus is a ****ing superstar.

Stevens getting the run around on the left.

They're starting to turn it up now.

Yesss 1-0 Rovers, Stewart

1-0 Rovers!
