At least we'll have an extra couple of fans if we're in Dublin and you convince yer mates to go
Agreed DeTown, Bray would be a nightmare
One of the guys has already said he would. Still may make A HOME GAME ON the Saturday depending on what time busses run Sunday our flight leave dublin at 4pm, but bus timetable only valid to march 16th

It will have happened in the Setanta Cup by then anyway though.

Well we got Cork away last year so I wouldn't be surprised if we got Cobh away :rolleyes:
Although my official guess would be Monaghan away.

In the words of Martin Luther King or was that Noel King (unlikely) 'I had a dream'.
Standing at the gates of United Park so we'll be meeting Drogheda United.

Yeah. We were away to Kildare.
So we'll probably start at The Showgrounds this time.

Before sligoman corrects me ;) again I meant Galway was our first home. Dundalk away was our first game :cool:

We'll probably get one of Longford, Drogheda, or Waterford first.
Dear FAI NL fixture computer,
May we have 2 away trips to Finn Harps, Longford, and Bray please?
And just the 1 trip only to Shels, Pats, UCD, Waterford, and especially Cork and Derry, though we'll probably have to travel to at least one of them twice. :(
Don't mind about the other clubs.
And can you throw in our last game to be at home too? Home advantage may prove decisive in the 33rd league game of the season.
Thanks. :)
:D

in fairness to shels there numbers are growin.
i am not tryin to be funny but is what is the story with the bohs numbers droppin?i noticed it at dalyer last year when there was a lot of empty seats in the jodi when we played yiz and very empty when i have seen highlights on eircom league weekly.
Are fans gettin fed up with the problems at the club
Sorry -- took my eye off the ball there for a week or two.
I don't think it's finances etc. IMHO most (oops -- nearly said 'real' there) fans go for football and don't want to think about balance sheets, profit and loss, and all that baloney, until we're talking out-and-out bankruptcy or Hoops-like status. Other than members, who are probably going to have to stump up more, only amateur blazers and sad anoraks obsess about accounts.
But numbers went down all right when the mood dipped, and there was a weird vibe. Some of the players deserved a roasting and got it, but it was more than that. Sort of confused, directionless feel that didn't really go away with Kenny. Little empathy between team and support -- at times it felt like we were playing a grudge match with each other! Horrrible.
I think Gareth Farrelly is/could be a really good manager -- tactically, he showed that, and the stats reflect it, but it wasn't a dramatic impact that you could feel in your gut. He doesn't do that Roddy feel-good-for-a-season stuff.
I'm hoping a fresh start. (By all accounts some of our players are fresh from the Rotunda).
At home to Waterford!....maybe, Hopefully! :o
I'm so ahead of the game!! well done me! :p

So what did the computer come up with? It wasn't too kind to Rovers this year.
2 away trips to Bohs, Pats, UCD, Drogheda, and Derry to come, with just one trip to Longford, and Bray. On the plus side, we travel to Donegal twice, while there are 2 home games with Shels, and Cork to look forward to. Both our first and last games are away, like last season. Hopefully UCD - Rovers won't be a survival six-pointer clash at Belfield in Game 33 in mid-November. :cool:
