"Tickets issued by Shamrock Rovers FC - 16 leagues and 24 cups" :rolleyes: (15 or 16 not too sure). Is this normally on Rovers' tickets or just for this match I wonder?

Tickets will now be on sale outside the ground before the game.
The FAI backed down from their bizarre dictat and neutrals can now come along and watch us hammer the filth.
15 Leagues and 24 Cups.... :oQuote:

Though I'd take the most boring of matches if the result was right. Following on from backing Bohs to beat Shels 2-1 last Friday, I'm going for 2-0 for us ;)
TV money works out at €5k for the 'home' side and €2.5k for the away side to the best of my knowledge.
I'd be confident enough of a Bohs win after our win last week against Shels. As far as I can make out a lot of the Bohs players will have played in this derby before: Rice, Byrne, Caffo, Harkin, Ward etc. but a lot of the Rovers team are young and have maybe one or two who have played in this game before. This may stand against Rovers or the young team they have might be energised by the atmosphere.
Suffice to say it is a big derby match and the only opportunity we have of meeting each other this year so despite Rovers having a 1st Division side it could be close enough.
The Bohs side? I'm assuming that both McGuinness and Farrelly are suspended for this one and with Hunt out and presuming Leech isn't cup tied I'd say the team will look something like;
---------------------O'Brien--------------------
Rice--------Ferguson------Caffery------Byrne
Harkin------Joxer-------Heary----------Ward
-------------Devlin------Leech-----------------
Needless to say I can't Fücking wait for the match and at least common sense prevailed regarding the availability of tickets.
C'mon de Bohs!
:D Keep it coming.Quote:

Why won't Farrelly be playing? + Hunts back in full training!Quote:

apparently the fai have backed down and tickets are on sale on the night now
We beat $h€l$ without them both.Quote:

Nobody can predict the outcome of a Rovers-Bohs game, ever. You can't predict it in the league, so you certainly can't predict it in the cup in a car-crash style, one-off grudgematch.
dfx is right,they are expected to win as they are all full-time professionals in the premier and have just beaten this years champions but I think this will suit us as you couldn't blame them for being cockey especially against a first division team full of kids.As illustrated in the recent programs,our boys are up for this game and know the importance of it to the fans and if they go into the game with the right attitude I think we will win
