Our game v bray failed a pitch inspection due to unplayable pitch. BTW I have never stayed over in Ballybofey at all yet. Is there much to do there?

None thread related but don�t want to start of fresh one for a small question.

I�ve never been to Rovers in Tallaght - is there a specific entrance for away fans?

Assuming you're wondering about the First Division team, there was in theory for the B team games in 2014 anyway.

I recall being a bit surprised there was segregation but in fairness it was just the other end of the stand so no big deal.

McLaughlin strikes again.

First time he has reffed rovers since he sent Lee grace off and gave a penalty for heading the ball against bohs last year. The guy is useless can't even do the basics

Nervy finish now!! for what i thought would be a straight forward game.

Cawley clearly dived for the peno(not his only one on the night) and the second came after a handball should have been given. However disappointing to lose two goals. Poor pitch again. A win is a win I suppose.

McLaughlin gives a peno that wasn't then allows a goal with a clear handball when he is looking straight at it ....unbelievable. I suppose we should be grateful he didn't send someone off.

All that matters are the points and getting past the scare, bad decisions or not.

True. I have no right to complain.
Fantastic start.

Rovers did enough to win, and got there in the end, but the coward in black is a stain on this league. 5 outta 5 ! On we go.

I hope said coward refs many of your games especially the head to head games with Dundalk!!

The standard of officiating is pretty dire on the whole unfortunately. We've had Sean Grant twice this season and he's already public enemy number 1 in Inchicore.

It's funny both Sligo goals wouldn't have happened if we had VAR but I'm still glad we don't have it.
Should be some sanction for the likes of McLaughlin though

Most grounds don’t have soap or jacks paper I think we are a bit off VAR in this league.

Yeah. Classic greatest league in the world moment last night when someone fecked a snackbox at greener as he celebrated the 3rd goal. Greener bent down took one out ate it and waved thanks at the crowd. :).

We only use molten brown or nothing in Richmond so on Friday it was the latter.

Don't worry, when your playing Shamrock Rovers II next season we'll make sure the dispensers are full in tallaght.

In that order?

There's plenty of the above, depending on personal tastes.

McLaughlin had a shocker but he's a good ref and young enough that he'll get better. If we dropped every ref who had a few bad games we'd have none left because they all have flaws. These lads all have day jobs as well so they're not exactly raking it in.

Noticed he's doing us v Pats on Friday.Depending on the outcome of said - i'll reserve any remarks on Mr.McLaughlin until after that match.:p

Agree on most of what you say on the post CD but the pen award for Sligo was just terrible.Coughlan was smiling as he lifted himself from the deck, after going down easier than a prozzy in Las Vegas ffs.

****ing myself laughing here at BTS talking about the penalty, "clattering", "flying in". You sure you watched the right match outspoken? Steps in front of Cawley and doesn't touch him. Even Cawley can't believe it was given.
