I surprised you actually managed totype that out while w*nking off at the thoughts of being 4th in the table.
Thrilled I am for you all, it must be such a buzz for you lot to rise slightly above your mid-table mediocrity.

Btw, A big HOORAH for getting up to 4th for a while....:D

This year we're challenging for the UEFA Cup, FAI Cup and eircom Premier League. We lose our second game of the season and you boys are on here pretending to have some knowledge of what we're going through and trying to create jibes about us failing somehow.
Know your place!

We've lost one of our last 14 or 15 domestic games I wouldn't call that concentrating totally on the cup. Ridiculous logic that because you're not challenging for the title winning other trophies is invalidated. Why don't we just pull out of all competitions except the league. By the way we played 51 games last year, more than any other club so I may as well use your excuse and say we had to compete on too many fronts and our league form suffered
.I'm not pretending to know what you're going through, i don't really care, I'm just defending my own club.

If Chelsea or Arsenal focused totally on the Champions League, I'm sure they would win it too. Instead they had domestic league and cup commitments which drew their focus.
The only way to ensure you're in the Champions League is to qualify through your domestic league. Unless of course you're Liverpool and you get the rules changed just to suit you. :rolleyes:
Pathetic and further devaluation of the competition.

You haven't won any cup yet this season.
Lets see what happens at the end of the season.

Using the appropriate level of respect means i'll let you off this time. They as long as you know your place. ;)

I was going to put some of Cop On's posts in the Rubbish section but I actually feel sorry for these poor deluded Longford fans.

They'll be forever jealous of the big clubs and they're ambition will never exceed a mid table finish in the league and the odd cup run which qualifies them for another oppurtunity to embarass the league in Europe.

You'll probably have to play your 'home' games in Wales in a few years time when you've exhausted the goodwill of every other club in the land.

No Im pointing out the fact that your club has been a disgrace to the league when playing in Europe. Im not talking about Rovers or its proud history at all.
