SHAMROCK ROVERS AT HOME THIS FRIDAY, When the two teams met last at turners cross there was a great crowd and athmosphere with the ****** song at half time ect..
Do you think the crowd disturbances of the second half of the game could have an affect on the attendance this friday night with families opting to stay away.
Still this is a really big game for city with 3 points a must for city. Cant wait till friday.
no. maybe some lads wont bring their kids, but theres always the family enclosure.Quote:

lot of the corner on holidays this week
I am GUTTED, GUTTED to be missing this again, my favourite game of the season and i wont be able to go, already missed the previous home rovers game because of a stag night. ****ed right off.
RE: crowds away.
Thtas definately not attributable to the Rovers fans or any of that malarky, sunshine supporters don't take kindly to draws and defeats. Chances are the 1nil win over dumpland city passed them by.

I think if we win on Friday all the doom and gloom will be gone and we can be optimistic for the final 1/3 of the season. UEFA place would be good.
I would say 3 points are a formality rather than a must :)
They even made dublin look good! :eek:
It might be better for the club if we did NOT qualify for Europe next year. The Inter-toto was a blast but our season collapsed after it. I would trade a cup or EL title for two good years of good runs in Europe.Quote:

Playing in Europe for any player is a bonus and one of the selling points of the club to any would be City player.
The team just needs a good kick in the áss and drop all the politics and bullshít that we've had to put up with.
every club needs to play in europe..
i wouldnt use intertoto as an excuse of not doing well in the league,,
not doing well in the league is down to the players and the managers and the current standard that cork coty are at ...
nothing got to do with europe
Not to go on about shels agian
but deportivo one week dublin city the next
and i dont think were doing so bad in the league :D
Not a chance.Quote:

It's rubbish to say that the inter-toto is to blame for us not winning the league. Shels have played more European games and it hasn't had an adverse effect on them so there's no reason to say it has anything to do with our league position.
We weren't in Europe at all last season and we still only finished third, yet we're still in with an excellent chance of finishing second this season.
I can't believe that anyone would prefer if the club didn't qualify for Europe. It's where we should want to be every season, the experience the players gain from it, the money a good run generates, the enjoyment the fans derive from the away trips, the media coverage it gets us, we can't afford to give up any of that.
I know people who never took City seriously before we beat Malmo and NEC but now they try to get to as many games as possible and always speak about the club in a good light. Europe puts us on the map and that's where we need to be.
So, do you Corkie Boys promise to be on your best behavior on Friday night for the visit of your idols? :cool:
I'm with Fair play boy on this one i reckon we dont need europe. as regards rovers being idols, huh more like billy idol.
Graham
the club needs europe simple as dat. for both commercial and player reasons. but also if we dont qualify for europe this season it means weve gone backwards frm last season when this season should have been about progresssion to 2nd or 1st place.

Cant wait for the Rovers game Frday night. I think last weeks low key win over Dublin City was just what the team needed. There was less publicity than most other games this season and then we nicked a late winner(although after watching it on Chorus, we could have scored 1 or 2 more in that last 10 minute spell), which should boost the morale. Hopefully the lack of recent home games will add a bit of excitment to the game and build a good atmosphere for Friday night. (Also the sister is gone on holiday so her Season ticket passes to me :D )
well are you saying he's tired, worn out, smells like heroin and has a strange tendency to glass people?Quote:
