Mad.

Where did any Sligo Rovers fan say that a large part of our crowd weren't sunshiners?
Do you honestly think if Shamrock Rovers had moved to Tallaght in 2005, ye'd be getting gates of 4k+? BTW, we're the exact same as is every club. Going up a division is always gonna improve attendances from both home and away crowds.

When we moved to Tallaght, we had sellouts instantly. With the second stand open, we get 4-5k+ regularly. There is huge appetite for senior football in the area, and we provide it.

im just glad you've finally found a community that wants you and yet you can all still be kept at a relatively safe distance. Congratulations. I believe its known as a win-win situation.

Why does every Thread on here end up in stupid slagging matches.

Because Nick Leeson is running GUFC and Sean Connor is managing the team;):msn_online::shake:

Probably because the regulars on here aren't really representative of the majority of their clubs supporters. Myposts insanity or hoopys arrogance is not in any way representative of how the majority of rovers fans think. And the sligo lot are so far removed from the real sligo fans i meet every year in sligo it's not even funny. Maybe they spout off their hundreds of posts of nonsense on here because in reality nobody would really take them seriously.

It's not a measuring tape competition, nor does it have to represent what people think. It's an opinion. A different opinion is not insanity. If you want insane opinions, Jim Corr is my suggestion.

I expected us to win the league last year. We won it. I therefore expect us to retain it this year with a much stronger squad available, and we're clear of the field already. That's expectancy, not insanity.

"I don't have expectations. Expectations in your life just lead to giant disappointments"
Michael Landon

Your expectations might well be met, but then again ask Bohs fans about how that can work out.

Optimism and hope tends to serve a fellow better. It also tends to dull the arrogance that often goes with expectation

In fairness, while most of us think mypost is insane, it's nothing to do with him reckoning Rovers will win the league this year.

Regardless of the outcome of mypost's sectioning, Not since The Leps "We're alright here folks" comments re Spingal last season have I laughed so much and caused so many people on one dart to consider my need for sectioning.

Huzzah and kudos to all involved

I'll read that post and add my observations to it when I've been up to the airport and back to pick up a mate flying in from the West.

Give me about 20 minutes or so...

Had to look twice at that bit, only thinking to myself "aren't most of his posts insane?"

..... stopping off for a pint Reiteoir ? :o

brilliant thread - especially as the irony of the "no direct bus to Phibsboro" theory coming from the same source as the "Sligo to Dublin for 35 euro - easy" and the poster does not even cop it ! :rolleyes: Truely a classic.

Once again it's arrogance to state what's looking you in the face:rolleyes:. There's not one Rovers fan alive(except you maybe) who doesn't expect to win the league this season so that statement is bull.

Sorry to bump this but on arrival back to Dublin Airport last night all I could think about was how long it takes to get from the runway to the arrivals hall.

With a delay of 8minutes when we landed it took 20 in total. That was at midnight.

5minutes Mehole.

Your rationality is not welcome here.
Take your logic and leave.
