A Team

No excuse for not being able to field 11 players. I'd have driven the bus through the town and asked some young fellas if they wanted to play sooner than field 10 men!

Id say Saturday isnt a great day for travelling that distance.Then again we should be able to field 11 players
What day would you like to travel that distance on?!

[deecay]

What day would you like to travel that distance on?!

Oh deecay, you just got "eye-rolled". Talk about being put in your box.

I think what happened was that the change of date for the fixture caused havoc for Rovers. It was down for the Sunday from the start of the ‘A’ team season but informed on Thursday afternoon that the game had been changed to the Saturday. So they had to try to get the squad together in a short space of time and with work commitments of the players it proved difficult. They thought they had more than 11 players but three of them didn’t show up for the bus ( that is why it was late) and I understand they have been dealt with accordingly. Very disappointing to have the game changed at such short notice, I think the players did well when you consider the circumstances.

From what I heard the club were informed on Tuesday but the A team manager wasnt told till the Thursday.

I was talking to one of the players and he had only found out on Thursday that the game had been switched to Saturday

On a brighter note,I heard Niall Costello went in goals and had a few nice saves

Brian Dorrian (Technical Official, SligoRovers) suspended for FOUR (4) competitive matches as a result of being removed from the technical area v Shamrock Rovers (27.07.08).

For this four match suspension, Mr Dorrian is to remain away from the dressing room, technical area and pitch for at least two hours before the matches as well as during the matches and for one hour after the matches and must be seated in the stands. (A Championship)

Deering is a disgrace

What did he do that merited a four match suspension?

[avvenalaf]

Never mind what did he do - who the hell is he ?

He's the A team's manager.

Mervue United game changed to Saturday at 2

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

Mervue United game changed to Saturday at 2

Hope the change of kick off doesn't mean half the players can't make it

Good 'dig' at your own club

Well according to Sligo Rovers website,the A Team's next game is against Drogheda on the 10th August.
There's no mention of the game in this weeks Champion-new date or old date.
If the club cant be bothered to promote the game(it is a home game),it is very hard for the players to be too enthaustic about it.
Also according to the site,we're still playing St.Pats tomorrow night.

its a conspiracy :eek:

Rovers 3-0 Mervue. Bellew x 2 and Ciaran Greene. Three goals in final 12 mins.

[sligoman]

there was no sign of the visitors and they did not arrive until 2.40Fined 50euro for this, not too bad really, I thought it'd be more.
