Question away of course …. But all you said is conjecture not fact based ( re strength and conditioning) unless you are privy to something ?Quote:

C’mon now. Rovers have that many injuries each season, you’d give Tallaght Hospital A&E a run for their money.Quote:

Looking at Rodger’s for Pats this evening what’s their 3rd choice keeper like?!?!
BADGES????? We don’t need no stinking badges?Quote:

It was a real huff n puff win but thats what was needed, thought Dan Cleary was poor again this evening with a lot of his medium range passing out going to the opposition. The strength and conditioning debate is interesting and has been a source of lots of debate amongst us elder lemons up at the back of the south stand my take on it is that there seems to be something in it but surely the Management team that are in place have recognised this and moved to address. It is also the case that some players are way more susceptible to getting injured if you have 2 or 3 in a squad it can be an issue. I Remember when Simon Power came to us we all said he will be injured most of the time, proven right.Quote:

Its on the low key side for a Duffer general rant which makes it all the more believable. No evidence but maybe some in the crowd could speak up. Ye cant legislate for individual idiots but the days of being almost alone on a terrace are past so someone else heard and I dont think Duff would go there unless there was something to it.

You’ll get idiots in every crowd. Some of the Pats fans around me are hard to listen to at times (though nothing racist or beyond the pale in terms of personal abuse I hasten to add.)Someone behind me was giving Duff some stick after the game (you’re only a mouthpiece etc) just stupidity more than anything else.Quote:

Can't agree that Bohs were brilliant, bar Connolly and Keta who had great games.Quote:

Horrendous stuff from Todd for the first. Nightmare performance from him. Hoban very quiet, as he got no service. Tones of the past few seasons there.
Less said about the game the better. Few weeks off, we should have a few lads back from injury.
More concerning to me is that we're boring. We have been for a time, but you'll get away with being boring as long as you're winning, but that's three aways in a row with no wins.
Bothered, we have scored ONE goal in 5 games, and that was a free kick !Quote:

Doesnt have to be a lifetime ban or anything like it, on this occasion an organised opportunity to apologise and maybe have him introduced to the diversity aspect of the club that there undoubtedly is from academy up. Thats being nice, ban him unless he gains some insight in to the impact of racism - Im sure there are plenty of groups that would only be too willing to help the chap make life less angry for him in future.Quote:

I really dont think you can make too much of such a 'small' incident when it isnt a witch hunt, and education is basis of atonement.
Yup there is ott and personal abuse of players, coaches and officials, its as distasteful at times, Bradley can attest to the Cork example. I do enjoy when a mouth in the crowd is told to wise up and the shock evident when they cop they considered an idiot!
Enjoyable, friendly atmosphere in terryland last night, with stewards and cops very relaxed - which makes a change. For that reason alone I sincerely hope Galway stay in the premier division,but I just cant see them surviving playing that kind of ball in this day and age- kick and rush won't get you enough points to survive, I think.
Less said about Rovers the better at this moment in time,we are not at 1/10th of our levels.
