Great start, well done to the lads. How did the overall fitness of the team look? If I recall correctly, we were well off the pace at the start of last season (for obvious reasons) so hopefully fitness won't be an issue this year!

First time I have ever seen a player get a yellow card for taking a kick in the hole!

This shot is taken from the Rovers facebook fans page. Stand looks like two thirds full even though the pic is from a fair distance off. 1200 main stand and a least another couple of hundred around the ground.
Nice to see that the RTE website can find space to report on Clarke Carlisle of Burnley winning on Countdown but not a mention of Rovers' victory over Cliftonville...
RTE are only interested in the domestic league when a club gets into financial troubleQuote:

I was checking Setanta listings for this coming week to see if they had a highlights programme and there is no sign of anything. They are more than likely low on funds so would not go the expense of it unfortunately. Pity, would like to have seen the goals again.
Setanta have never had a highlights programme. Even in the first year they didn't cover all games
I'm sure they would have been featured on The Hub, but that ended Friday night I think.Quote:

looks like us pats linfield and bohs (unless glentoran win or at least draw in dalymount).
seen as we are probably going to have the best record unless bohs thump glentoran by 5 goals , i wonder will that give us a seeding to play the best 2nd place team or a home 2nd leg.
Probably not knowing our luck
We'll get Bohs with the second leg at Dalyer, no doubt.
No seeding but they keep teams from the same group seperate.Quote:

tbh dodge when we were in the sc in 2005 all our games were shown but there would have being a goals roundup after the main game was finished.. it was a pity setanta got rid of that..Quote:

would anybody be able to help me and tell me if rovers had anybody booked in the game. want to try and do a database for the season, with appearences, bookings, goals etc
two legged semi final v st pats - at home in the second leg. happy days- a great chance to get to the final
Anyone know what dates and times are of semi legs?
1st semi is down for 29/3 and 17/4 with the other down for 3/4 and 19/4- would imagine evening kick offs to suit Setanta especially hope the Monday games are.
* Deleted *
raf has got off the mark with bohs scoring against the glens. fair play to him im glad he has found his scoring touch early with bohs.
Hope he loses it again for our game!!!!
Monday games usually at 8pm for TVQuote:
