At least you wont get gunmen from the RIRA attending your game.

On a side note, its a disgrace by the LOI appointing Neil Doyle as ref. A self confessed Shamrock Rovers fan, programme seller and was a paid up member of the 400 club. Beyond belief. Get Buttimer or some other clown to do it.

Amazing what people like to believe.

--Over 60% more yellow cards for Rovers than the opposition .
--50% more red cards for Rovers than the opposition
--4 times more penalties against Rovers than for Rovers. He hasn't awarded Rovers a penalty since 2009.

Lump on a red card or penalty when he's refereeing Rovers.

Rovers tickets available for the Connaught St end.

Some guy on our forum saying they're not for the Connaught.

One day till Rovers

Tickets can be bought on the day for anyone interested...

It'd be strange if it was the Connaught St end alright. Extra policing/turnstiles/stewards for 50-100 people.

Wonder if the pitch will make much impact. It didn't badly affect Rovers on Friday until Pats threw on about 25 midfielders and Chambers went off.

Shamrock Rovers fan - fact.
Programme seller RDS/Tolka - fact
Member of 400 club - fact.

Surely to avoid any hassle he'd be better off being allocated elsewhere.
I know the guy. Nice fella all the same.:rolleyes:

Performances in both games so far make me wary of a trip to Bray.

For me Tommy Dunne is not getting the best out of our talented midfield trio. Dunleavy is big miss at right back as well.

Well that would imply he's overcompensating so as not to be accused of being biased. Bottom line is that a Shamrock Rovers fan should not be refereeing a Shamrock Rovers match. Surely somebody else could do it?

Lovely Bloke

I know a young lad who's a Bohs fan who's moving up the referee ladder (has run the line in 1st Division, and 4th Official in Prem).

He's been told he can no longer attend Bohs matches, and I don't think he's been allocated Bohs matches to be 4th Official at.

There have been no posts deleted in this thread. Further back seat moderation, the discussion of and debating of moderation in thread will see warnings issued and associated bans where necessary.

BOHtox

Lads I have no idea if there was posts deleted or not but I hope there wasn't. It'd be a shame if the preview to the biggest game in Irish football was marred by heavy handed moderating :pac: Tomorrow, or today technically, will be a huge derby. It'll be the first time in a while where Rovers are coming in to Dalyer fearing nothing and Bohs are on form against Rovers and will also be fearing nothing. It will be the epitome of big games of Irish football. Huge crowd, great atmosphere, end to end football.



Hopefully at the end of the day we will be talking about the result not some idiot's, or idiots', actions during the game.

I think some Rovers fans went into the game too confident in 2011 where Finn got the 94th minute equaliser.

0-0 for me..

SantryRed

How much are student tickets for the game today?

SantryRed

And also,

Why the hell aren't all the games on today instead of tomorrow?

This is only an Irish bank holiday so there is no UK Sports on at all to keep people away. Such cluelessness by the FAI.

I guess having the games today would of been sensible thing to do something FAI can't do to save their life.

Paz-CCFC

At least they have afternoon games set for Easter Monday and the May Bank Holiday. Before, they used to have them played on the day immediately after or on the previous Tuesday.

Decided that due tp a lack of a hangover, I shall go to the match today. Should hopefully be fun!

Madworld

Off to the match now. Head says 4-0 Bohs, the heart says 6-4 Bohs.

applehunter

Strange line-up from Rovers.

No McCabe, Finn or Kilduff.

Why not play 3 of your best players?

markc1184

Bit off topic but what time does The Square in Tallaght open until for parking on match nights?

Tell that to the player stretchered off.
Would you be happy with a Bohs fan and club member reffing the game?

"Big" Dublin derby finished 0-0.

City's win on Friday looking better now.

What did Rovers fans think or their line-up?

Worst. Game. Ever.

Very disappointed not to win but I suppose a good point against supposed title challengers.

Match was fairly crap, neither team did anything of note. Rovers were comfortable even after the sending off and just wanted the draw. Bohs were fairly spineless. Didnt make for much entertainment. But sure good to go to.

GLaDOS

Also disappointed we didn't win. Thought we were the better side throughout. Some really late/clumsy tackles from Rovers, especially in the first half. Hope Lyons isn't out for too long. Scully is ****e.

I've seen some truly awful players play for Shels, especially in 2007, but I'm pretty sure Scully is the worst player I have ever seen. He ruined every half chance Bohs looked like creating today.

It was an awful match not helped by a very poor surface at Dalymount.

Quality wise, it wasn't the most spectacular of games to watch. Thought we looked the better side though. Pity we didn't make the most of the extra man when Rovers went down to ten but any sort of result I'll take as a positive.

Scully spear heading our attack is something I do not like though. He's utter shíte.

And that dive in the second half from Scully was an absolute disgrace. Hope AC tore strips out of him for that. Has the grace of a turnip. I'll take the point but Rovers were there to be beaten today.

Only saving grace was seeing Billy Dennehy predictably losing his sh*t as usual, never fails to make me happy!

That_Guy

Lyons needs to really cut that bollocks out of his game. Got booked in Cork for the same thing.

dsmythy

Bohs woeful in attack. Good defending though.

born2bwild

Went to Bohs match today - their young left full is a quality player - number 15; Luke something.
What a terrible team selection by Rovers - with management like that they're not going to get within an asses roar of the title.
And yeah, that number 12 for Bohs (Scully) is brutal.
