Fixtures for 07 season

[Rovers1]

i heard the provisional fixtures for the 07 season are out this friday, anybody know if this is true or not?

[Rory H]

according to the star there is a promise the release the fixtures within 24 hours of the shels hearing result...so hopefully before the weekend

the dream is

1st game..shams at home
2nd game...galway away
3rd game...ucd at home
4th game bohs away

unlikely but it would be nice!

[Rovers1]

its gonaa be something like last seasons fixtures reversed because the FAI are too ****ing lazy. we got Shams 2005 fixtures last season just reversed. so if this is the case this year we'll have bray home first and drogs away second. our last game of season will be longford at home. cant wait for bohs away!! :D :D

[Only1Rovers]

cant wait for bohs away!! :D :D

gonna be like cup final every time. Hopefully there'll be massive Rovers support in Dalyer! We should be aiming to outnumber the Bohs fans. Need some good chants for Seanie too!

[Rory H]

indeed...and bohs' crowds will go up by about 100% this year probably!

i really wonder what it will be like...the away game it will just be abusing sean for 90 mins..booing their players...and if we win[which i really cant see happening!] then ....well more abusing sean!i hope nothing stupid happens..im guessing there will be a lot of new people trying to get on the supporters bus for that game...perhaps a prior booking scheme may be in order!

the home game....dont know what the main stand brigade will be like....they didnt like him when he was our manager so he will probably get less abuse:p

it will be incredibly over hyped and its just another game....

[Only1Rovers]

Jesus Man catch yourself on where you up there last year when we played them ?

Standing just to the right of the press area in the main stand in Dayler and was sitting in font of press box in the showgies....:o ?

[Only1Rovers]

My point is we did not have too many with us but it was a good game ! ;) :D

As W Rovers says we'll be expectin a few more this time round.

[Bravo]

I hear the first games are on wend commencing 9th march?

[feo123]

yeah that was decided a good while ago i think?

[DonalE]

Apparently our first 3/4 home fixtures will be on a Sunday afternoon as the flood lights won't be re-erected for some time yet. Also the new turnstiles etc are well behind schedule. Hate watching game's on a Sunday afternoon,Saturday night is the only time for football in the Showgrounds.

[feo123]

youre really starting to annoy me SB

[feo123]

anyway, showgrounds is a kip at the minute! looks dreadful, have to start work again quick up there

[Soper]

It is a valid question!

Regardless, I am looking forward to the seasons start, and attending at least 4 or 5 matches.

[SligoBrewer]

youre really starting to annoy me SB

how?:confused:

[feo123]

ah never mind. even aday of voluntry help up there on a saturday would go a good way to cleaning it up a bit! its very poor and unprofessional looking up there at the minute anyone could see that!

what condition is the pitch in?

[Soper]

feo, you're right.I know it's all well me commenting whilst living in this dump, but the difference that can be made by a few amateur volunteers is immense (helped out the local rugby team in the Summer), it wasn't intensive or anything, just a few people.Scrubbed up well.

volunteer group anyone?

would be nice to get the place looking well before the open day..

[Rovers1]

what condition is the pitch in?

saw it on sunday, seems bumpy and slightly overgrown, but hopefully thatll be all sorted in the coming weeks. if not im sure Mr.Fenlon and friends will be commenting on it soon enough if its in the same state as it was at times last year!

[sligoman]

Wouldn't mind helping the club out with stuff if it was all arranged and a group got together.

[feo123]

was there yesterday and thought the pitch was looking very good! cut the grass and looks level enough! not sure how anyone can train on the training pitch.....its literally a swamp at the minute, there on it at least twice a day so cant really complain?! dont really use the omni grass too often i dont think!

[Rory H]

so the rumour is the opening round of fixtures will be derbies...galway away/home possibly....

[SeaniesRedArmy]

is that 3 or 4 home games

or 3 quarter

use your brain

[SligoBrewer]

use your brain

well...i wouldn't be suprised if it was 3 quarters to be honest

[DonalE]
