Very sloppy defending for their goal

Good point re penalty RF. It reminded me of the Conor O'Grady/Marcus Hallows incident in Cork a number of years back. It was a crazy situation and should not happen at this level of football.

As I saw it Foy and Faz tussled for the ball with Foy getting it. Hughes then took it from Foy and gave it to Faz who then gave it back to Foy. As you said Faz did not celebrate the goal and did not go near Foy after he scored. I would also agree with you that Faz's performance deteriorated after this

On a positive note I felt it was a very good display with most playing well and all giving 100%. We could have won more easily with plenty of chances created.

Foy is our main(and best imo) penalty taker. He was right to take it. Faz had only been taking them because Foy had been dropped.

missed v dublin city in 2005, awful penalty. got lucky v bray
. faz tries to be smart by havin a quick glance to the wrong side when he's taking it. i prefer foyzer's method but letting faz take em is good for his confidence although faz should grow up and stop whinging.

another week, another player...judge last week, faz now. stop complaining. if ye know what its like to be a striker wanting to score, then say what you want. otherwise dont bother saying faz should 'grow up'.

wtf feo?! it's great that faz's hungry for goals and wants to take penalties but do you think it's good that faz won't celebrate with his TEAMmates when the TEAM takes a 2 goal lead?

sure he was in a huff over it. i know how it would have felt. he played well on saturday. i couldnt give a **** whether he celebrated or not.

in a way its good that both players are eager to take penos, faz wants to carry on what has been a great season with another goal while foyzer is eager to make his mark after getting into the team for the last few games, easy way to solve the schoolyard arguments- decide before game who is on penos!

We've more injuries at the moment than I remember in recent times. Tony Mac, Ian Bermingham, Alan McNally, Paul Byrne, Paul Crowley and Shane Fitzgerald - all would have been in the squad, and the first four would have been in the team. Derek Doyle as well now. 2-1's not a bad result under those circumstances.

wtf are you on about feo. im not complaining about faz, i thought he played well but i just pointed out what i noticed what i saw, and i wasnt the only one either. now feo this is a public forum and we should be allowed to post our views without you running down our throats saying we are criticising the team.

feo, i think your slightly over defensive of players...

nah, not really. just know what its like to be a footballer at a way lower quality level than the rovers players, its much harder and more pressure on them. just dont like when people give out about them. every player goes out and does their best. no one goes out to give anything less than that, thats a fact!!
just think some people are too easily annoyed when it comes to player performances
