Its probably cheaper,they'd have to pay for the production of them games whereas they can just link in a production from the other countries......Quote:

It's the hope.......it just kills you.
Would agree with most of that. No denying Pats were poor. Bit ropey defensively for the goals, and no real threat going forward. No reason to think we can’t turn it around though. The late goal was huge, and a good crowd at Richmond roaring the team on could be a factor. What we absolutely don’t want to do is concede first. Game over if that happens in my view. Big performance needed.Quote:

The iceland team are 6/5 with paddypower, has to be the best value bet ive seen in months.
No Byrne, no Farrugia, no Clarke, no pace , never been so pessimistic about a Rovers match, our form is beyond awful and we were lucky to only lose 1 nil in the first leg at home.
Pray for a Miracle
What's the story with Ferizaj?
Scored for the under 19s last weekend but doesnt seem to be getting a look in around first team....dont know why
Thought he was injured, no?
I think I see rumours either he or his dad were acting up about something and it didn’t go down well,it was on Twitter I seen so might be nonsense…..Quote:

2,500 for Richmond. Not sure if we’d have to move to Tallaght if we make the next round. That would obviously bring capacity well up.Quote:

We’ll that was a waste of a tenner one down and being ripped apart could be a very long night
And they are behind, Lopes awful there...
Rovers are getting ripped apart, no idea what they're at...
Rovers very poor at the back so far.
Well that’s the tie over in all likelihood. What a brutal showing from Rovers this year in the champions route.
The loudest cheer so far from the visiting Rovers fans was for a misplaced Breidablik pass.
Did people actually think Rovers were ever going to respond...Quote:

Rovers are honestly so bad its borderline laughable, how can any Rovers fan watch this and still support Bradley as a manager. This happens year in year out and still the same mistakes are being made.
A brutal showing in Europe is infinitely better than not being in Europe?Quote:

Rovers should try and get to the 3rd qualification round of the ECL and take the cash. If they will the league they can have a bash again next year. They most certainly need to strengthen the squad to have any hope.
Icelandics look way better on the ball. Quicker and more skilful. Rovers had some half chances. Not a great performance by any means, clumsy at times, but not as bad as last week.
Pohls follows up a great save with a howler,has to be dealing with that....
Shameful, embarrassing, and disgraceful performance.
Cant attack, cant defend and continue to play a system that doesnt suit the players Rovers have, trying to play a counter attack system with players as slow as **** and a XI with an average age of over 30 just sums up this club perfectly. Ties like this show up Bradley as a manager and this is what Rovers can expect for the foreseeable future in Europe as long as they stick by him. And no this is NOT trolling, its time many fans wake up and smell the coffee, this is not a good team Rovers are playing and Rovers have been made look a complete pub team by them.
Shocking by the VAR team that the ref was required to have a look. It was peno all day long.
But Rovers don’t play on the counter. Rovers for years now have been a team that plays a possession game, with patient passing, almost a Dutch style. In fact it’s been my main criticism of them especially away from home in Europe that they don’t play a more mixed game.Quote:

Lol “afew” this is a common occurrence, obviously even a broken clock is right twice a day but the only times it’s successful is when Rovers get to play a side in qualifying that is bad enough to lose (Hibernians/Shkupi).Quote:
