We are playing U.C.D. tonight and no talk yet...Seamie and Rommy back, Mauro suspended. Ventre probably in centre back so. We should be able to beat UCD, although it'll probably end up 0-0 again:mad:. One plus is that it's our last trip to Dubland this season:)
Judgey might be available, according to rte.ie
Hate going to UCD. Graveyard of Irish football.
The sooner they go down the better. Hope we get a victory even more today because it would help send them down and obviously push us on.
1-0. Doherty to get on the scoresheet.
I think you guys will beat us tonight. We have a young, inexperienced team of old players who only come to Belfield to die, and we just can't compete with the likes of Sligo without taking on your business model of spending more money on player wages than we have, and then wailing to our fans that we desperately need hundreds of thousands of euro to stay afloat. It's no contest really.
An 'inexperienced team of OLD players' ?? What have they been doing all their lives?
I bet you giggled like a schoolgirl typing that?Quote:

I've read it 5 times and i still dont understand it.Quote:

Not a great game but three points in the bag. UCD look doomed, they have nothing up front.
It was a typical boring ucd game with no atmosphere. The first half was pretty good with a few chances created, UCD missed a sitter after two minutes but after that rovers were all over them. The second half was brutal with rovers playing way too deep. Thought Raf was the best player on the night, full of energy and got stuck in. Richie Ryan was pretty good, good passer of the ball. Judge didn't come on.
Finally we get a win! Good first half but we were very poor in the 2nd. One of Cash's worst performances of the season imo. O'Grady and Raf never gave up as usual. Not an exciting game but we got the three points and that's what matters!
Crap game as per usual but that doesn't matter. We were good in the 1st half,probably should have scored 1 or 2 more. In the 2nd half we were poor and were lucky that ucd were so bad going forward.
O'grady was immense,especially towards the end when a few others were tiring.
Hopefully we have helped relegate UCD and we won't have to suffer at that morgue anymore.
Tis a pity we were so unlucky this season,as we really could have pushed for a uefa cup spot,bearing in mind that we still have some of the "weaker" sides to play.
Was I the only one hoping we'd knick a second towards the end so this wouldn't come through?Quote:

Curious that if it were UCD who brought eight fans to an away game and spent the entire second half camped inside their own penalty box with no more ambition than to hoof clear and maybe create a chance on the counter, there'd be calls for us to be kicked out of the league. Strange how these things don't work in reverse.
We're screwed on the pitch; at least we're not screwed off it.
We all know from the attendances thread that you're not the best with figures but eight fans?:D. What was the attendance tonight? At least 3000 I'd say.Quote:

OK, maybe ten. Being generous.
How'd the team get home? Were they told it's OK to leave the box?
