He was still calling Cork "we" on Setanta last Tuesday.

It kinda like we have two managers now aswell !! :D

In fairness, he always said ... "I love Cork" .... and i mean, who could blame him. Afterall everyone does, it just that some people dont know it yet !! ;) :cool:

Poor fcukers ;)

I know ... but it is only a matter of time before they see the light ... eventually, they all see the light and will in turn become better rounded people for it. They can all be saved. The world would be such a better place if it were full of Cork people. Like i said .... its only a matter of time !! ;)

City were very good, should really have scored 5 or 6 IMO. Flynny looked a bit off the pace, but he'll be fine in a few games. Man of the Match for me was Gamble- I thought he was outstanding. Doyler, George and Kearney all very good too, and the defence was mostly very solid. Dan Murray looked more like his old self. Not gonna get carried away just yet, but it was an excellent start

The last time I was up there was the play-off a few years ago and the pitch was like a meadow :D

Yeah ... fair play to all that travelled. Seems like the away support just picked up from where they left off, loads of noise, colour and atmosphere.

Great stuff and looking forward to the season.
Bring on Bray !!

What a great trip!! Cork fans easily outsang the Harps supporters, it's just a shame that a few Harps idiots couldn't stand being beaten!! The ground was an absolute joke though, how they got a licence is beyond me!

I would like to congratulate the Cork supporters.They were excellent and a credit to your club.A word of warning,it was the first game of the season against an under strenght inexperienced Harps side. Thought Joe Gamble was excellent. Hope ye enjoyed the trip and see yez in the Cross in a few months. ;)

We got a licence thanks to our new ground plans - for which planning permission was granted last week, and on which work will start in the next month or so! There will be various bits and pieces of work carried out to Finn Park in the next couple of weeks, but it hardly makes sense to go spending a heap of money on FP with us moving.

Do elaborate on the few idiots that couldn't stand a beating...

BTW, Pat Dolan is a shareholder in Harps so that may explain why he was present on Saturday night

Will ye be building a wall for the Gents again or will ye actually go to whole 9 yards and get a toilet?

I think that Colblimp is talking about a few young uns that were annoying us just after we scored and your stewards who werent very good.

Interesting that Dolan is a shareholder. Surely there would be a conflict of interest if he were to manage a team against Harps?

The plot thickens :p

Seriously though (if it's true), guys should take this into account before saying how great he was to go up supporting City.

The following are the arrangements for travelling Shamrock Rovers fans for the Finn Harps match.

Finn Harps have informed us that match tickets will be on sale at the Junction 15 bar which is not far from the ground. Our entrance is known as the Back Gate on Navanway Street.No flag poles will be allowed inside the ground, but plenty of space exists for flags and banners.

The Garda will operate stop and search barriers some distance from the ground. Drink will be confiscated and anyone drinking on the street will be arrested and held overnight then charged under the Public Order Act.

We are specifically asked to mention a no flares policy exists because they cause a serious problem for the sea rescue helicopter service which is close by. Local stewards will wear blue rain jackets with steward across the back. I would ask you to co-operate fully with all instructions given on the night.

Finally I would ask all our fans to be as vocal as possible to cheer the boys on, and drive safely home, we want to see you all at our next home game.

John Noonan, Head of Security

mmmmm..... you wonder is this as a result of the rebel army creating a good match day atmosphere on the opening day of the season, some one should tell them that not all premier divison clubs travel the lenght and breath of the country in such numbers. Rovers will probably lucky to have 50 at the match but i supose with there reputation you cant be too carefull.

As for John Noonan if that is the tool with the glasses god help him if there is trouble.

To be fair to Rovers fans, they would have a pretty good travelling support.

Blimey, is that really him?!?! He's about as much use as an handbrake in a canoe... As far as I can remember, when the 'trouble' started, he was nowhere to be seen. :rolleyes:

The clue was in the fact that he used the terms 'we' and 'ours' when talking about rovers :rolleyes:

I'm saying to kevin cronin that it was obviously a Rovers guy who wrote that warning letter (cos he referes in the letter to Rovers fans as 'our fans')
