Ah shut up, it's a nonsense argument.

We've all had terrible days in Europe over the years, having a smallest penis competition doesn't need to be done.

There has been so many bad ones that inevitably leads itself to be a spectrum. From Thor to Belgrade, say.

5-1:)

When was the last time Pats drew or won away in Europe - Krylya Sovetov Samara - was that 3-2 or 3-3.

celtictiger32 · 13-07-2012 4:09am

well done pats at least your in the next round could have done with better results though boost the coefficients and all that.

He asked one of the local reporters in the box something but he didn't get a reply (that time)

"Fúck yis anyway... fúckin' Icelanders"

Also...

"Ah for fúck sake Stevo (or whoever it was) if yer fúckin injured roll onto the fúckin pitch and fúckin roll around for fúck sake"

And... a lad he was talkin shyte about in the box turned out not to be a local, but an Englishman. :cool:

Good entertainment. There was something every couple of minutes. Have to say though, fairplay to him for doing it.

Pride Fighter · 13-07-2012 9:09am

Pat's have played 22 games in Europe since 2007, the next 2 will mean at least 24. They truly have been Ireland's best club in Europe over the past 5 years. Does any other team have such a good record ever? I cannot remember myself. Maybe Shels in the early 2000's.

Dundalk went five years unbeaten at home. Drawing with PSV, Porto, Spurs, Celtic, Linfield and beating Hadjuk Split, Hibernians of Malta and Fram.

Porto, Spurs and Celtic only went through by a single goal.

legendary.xix · 13-07-2012 9:42am

Well done to Pat's.

Bohs yet again have disappointed when representing our country and our league in Europe. I don't want to be too critical they do have a young squad. When Derry were refused entry the writing was on the wall. We need our better teams in Europe. Pat's have been great at getting through rounds in Europe in recent years. Bohs sadly have not.

Forgot about that great Dundalk team of the late 70's early 80's.

Shame an Irish team will probably never make the last 16 of the European Cup ever again.

dsmythy · 13-07-2012 9:52am

Say Pats be gone against the Bosnians. One problem with summer football is the team who qualified for Europe the year previous is often a completely different team come the qualifiers. Bohs an extreme case this time.

Different era lad, would the current Rovers side be able to pull off results against sides like I've listed above? Whole different kettle of fish to going through on away goals against a team from Estonia.

That's not knocking Rovers achievement and hopefully the same can be done again this year.

Sorry wasnt talking about Dundalk, was referring to the claim that Pats playing 22 times in Europe in 5 years makes them Irelands best club in European competition over that period. If Rovers get past Ekranas we will be at 22 games in two years.

*Also, the current Rovers side will struggle against the current Dundalk side tonight, which tells you all you need to know

That_Guy · 13-07-2012 10:35am

Didn't see the Bohs game last night unfortunately. Anyone care to explain what the fúck happened?

First half hour Bohs did very well apparently, 1-0 up. Then either just before or after the 2nd half, we conceded a bad goal, then after about 50 mins another bad one (an own goal no less) and after that the lads probably lost spirit. Good luck to the Icelandic team, must be cool to be in Div 2 and going on to another round in the Europa.

I don't mind so much we are out of Europe, though going out 5-1 is a bit harsh but that's football. Finishing in the upper half of the league and a good cup run is more important. I just hope we keep the same manager for next season and the young squad we have can build up some experience and begin to gel together.

Easily the best irish euro club ever, its not even close tbh. Unbeaten in Richmond in our last 10 games in Europe is some record.

Pats have played 14 in the last 2 years, including the recent 2 and more in the last 5 years. They have consistently been the most consistent Irish club side for the past 5 years. How can anyone dispute that? The results speak for themselves.

While finishing as high as possible in the league is important, this would have been a big pay day for the club had they gone through. Bohs were never gonna get to the group stages but 100K is nothing to be sniffed at.

Best of luck to Thor though. Their (7) fans were brilliant at Dalymount last week.

Alias G · 13-07-2012 11:25am

Pats manage to sneak through against Icelandic opposition on away goals after extra time. Irelands european club for sure.

Get a hold of yourself.

You said they were the best, now they are the most consistent, which is it? They are consistent because their recent results have come in the early rounds of the EL and fair play to them for that. But to suggest they have achieved anything like the success of SRFC in Europe (or in any competition for that matter) is laughable.

They arent even "Dublins European team"

Losing two games against Icelandic opposition has to be considered a poor return.

Pats beat Olimps and Valletta 1-0 away in 2008 and 2009 respectively – not a great return. It’s the very good home record that’s been winning ties.

dsmythy wrote: »

I don’t know about that – the Bosnian league is a similar standard to the LOI. Pats haven’t played terribly well since the break – hopefully they’ll hit some form in time for the next round.

CiaranC wrote: »

And lost how many of those? Qualifying for the group stages last year was a great achievement, but their performances in the group stage were generally poor.

Started well. Controlled the game for the first 30 minutes and got the away goal. Comedy of errors ensued.

To be fair, the gulf in class is absolutely massive. You can only learn from such an experience.

Remember, Bohs beat BATE Borisov 10 years ago in a qualifier. Borisov made the CL groups last year.

Generally poor my arse, its a slight step up from scoring last minute goals in Iceland to stay in the competition at the first qualifying round stage to playing against teams who bring on a sub whose transfer fee would run the entire LOI for ten years

Same old Pats nonsense, pick some irrelevant obscure fact to champion to pretend they arent very much the junior club behind Rovers, Bohs and Shels.

Oh from March 2005 to April 2005 we were unbeaten on days starting with "W", only team in HISTORY to do it. Never relegated only reelected. Etc.

Dont know why you have a chip on your shoulder. Pats are the best Irish club in Europe. Won more games, played more games and if it was not for us Rovers would not have been seeded the past few years and been knocked out sooner. Your achievement of making the first round proper is a good one, similar to what Pats done a few years ago in playing Hertha Berlin in the first round proper.

I have done nothing but state facts. As have others on this thread. Dont get your anger at all.

Pats in Europe have played 40, won 11 drawn 6 and lost 23. Seems to me they have a better win percentage than any Dublin club.
