Galway away 11/7/08

[deecay]

GUFC have called a press conference for Wednesday and many predict that is when they announce some departures.We should win after two great preformances and Galway having a poor defence

[Rovers Maniac]

Galway to rise their game and snatch a win because of this, our boys will probably sit back all i know is that they still will have dangerous players.

[sligofan4ever]

Can see us winning 2-0 Anto and Boco to score, anyone know if Coleman will be able to play ?

[Red&White Rover]

Coleman could be doubtful for this game

GUFC have lost alot of players,so who they have left should be mad up for Friday

Entry fee back to €15

[sligofan4ever]

Do Galway United have a keeper for this one ? Rouse is suspended and Gary Rodgers is supposed to have joined Sporting Fingal.

Rodgers not gone so he will be in goals

[Rovers Maniac]

All the talk of Galway in crisis i'd say we have lost more players than them of late. I think they have lost 3 we could have lost as many as 5 by the time this match comes around nearly double what they have lost.

[redobit]

They may be short of money, but hats off to them they sure have a fine web site. Puts ours to shame.

[brianw82]

From Galway's statement:


In an effort to encourage fans to support the team, admission prices will be reduced to €15 for all remaining home matches.

What were the admission prices before that? I thought €15 was the generally accepted standard PD admission price for all clubs.

at the start of the season it was €20 to get into terryland

Aye but it's not things like nice websites and fancy DVD's that get teams promoted etc.

Oh wait...

Hi all, on a related note for Galway match our club are bringing up a team of U-10's to play on the pitch at half time. Our colours are red and white stripes so if any of ye are going ye might give them a cheer.:D

[avvenalaf]

[deecay]

Alan Kellys ref,he hasnt been ref in one of our games in ages

[Rovers1]

Alan Kellys ref,he hasnt been ref in one of our games in ages

all for the TV i suspect, he'll have his hair lovely for it.

[Mr Maroon]

all for the TV i suspect, he'll have his hair lovely for it.
He hasn't got any anymore.

[Red4Eva]

all for the TV i suspect, he'll have his hair lovely for it.

you'll get a surprise tomorrow night if you think is hairy is still lovely. everyone on foot.ie says he's a poor ref but he's never had a bad game that i've been at. although his new hairstyle might bring him down to the level of the other bald p***ks like tuite and mckeon

[sligofan4ever]

unless Anto's playing his last game on friday or already has, it will be tougher for Cookie on players who can go forward and score and with seamie only having a 50/50 chance of playng I can see McKenzie in his place if he dosent play. whats your team for this one ? would go for a 4-4-1-1.

Brush
Coleman (if fit) Peers Almeida Butler
Raff O' Grady Ventre Doherty
Anto (unless hes already gone to Bohs)
Boco

Subs:
Jennings
Cash
Creane
Feeney
Judge

agreed on kelly being a good ref and has never done us wrong in the past.
his father is an arrogant pr**k though.

this will be a tough game but i think boco and peers should be the key players in a narrow rovers victory.

we as supporters have to give our all as galway will fight for their lives and we need to become a 12th man.

i feel an air of complacency and we cant afford that.

come on the bitored

[Rovers Maniac]

This game is nicley coming to the boil, if our lads play to their max then we have nothing to fear at all.

[Only1Rovers]

wan - wan, a disappointment

[Rovers Maniac]

Considering we were 1 down i thought the boys fought back well and showed who is the boss of Connacht in terms of football ;):)

[sligofan4ever]

Unlucky in the end that we didnt come out with all 3 points, Boco missed a very good chance in the 2nd half but still put on a very good peformance and Peersy probably saved us when he cleared the ball off an open goal.

[Rovers Maniac]

Peers is simply an animal class player that was best stop ever, i thought Mauro and Butler were also very good, i thought Doherty did ok at times lots of football in him, Brush also did well, O'grady was so so same as Ventre. The rest were in and out of the game way too much including the last two named.

[Rovers1]

1-1 was a fair result,Kelly made the game all about him though. Worried about Rommys finishing though, he just hacks it and never looks up. Benny had objects thrown at him from the "old" stand, wonder did the cameras pick it up?

Exactly why everyone loves him makes world class tackles, stops etc...
Boco worked his @ss again but failed to score. Gary Rodgers was very good in the game to be fair, was sure Boco would add a second, and only if Sean Doherty was on target it would of topped off a good match for him, hes improving in each game. unless we beat Finn Harps and Shamrock Rovers then Cook can forget about Europe but its important we finish with as many points as possible.

[redtildead]

Dont know how anyone can say O'Grady was so-so. He was immense tonight from being at the game surely it would show just as well on the tele. I would have given Peers motm ahead of Mauro, Peers was just quality.

[lowroadrover]

We were out of shape in the first half with Anto up front . Far better in the second half but we should have beaten them , they are awful

we must be the only team in the world that dose not have a striker
2 midfielders up front will struggle to score goals
boco is a link man not a striker

[sligoman]

Disappointed we can't beat a terrible Galway side. Ventre is useless, waste playing him. Mauro, Peers and Conor played very well. Doherty has a bit of skill but his crossing was poor. Butler looked dangerous going forward. We should have enough to beat Harps anyway as they're even worse than Galway imo.

O'Grady worked ahrd as always but that is all you will get from him! Any time he got the ball he lost it! We have 2 hard workers in centre midfield and unfortunately we are going no where wit that partnership!

[Rovers Maniac]

That was some pass from Danny Ventre to Doherty in the second half. I honestly don't think there is a huge amount of difference between the two of them and actually thought Ventre finished the stronger of the pair.

What about his simple pass to Cretaro at the end that went 10 yards behind him?

I hear you, not saying for a second he is a good passer i was just pointing it out that he was so unlike him :D

But O'Grady is a poor passer i think people get carried away a little with him at times, both players are just the same type of player in my book with very little between them.

i agree with you both cant pass a ball good at chasing and breaking down play
but we need someone to get on the ball and give a killer pass.with them in the team we are hard to beat but struggle to win games
