So Harps have played 2 games, had 8 goals, 3 red cards, 2 players taken to hospital and a partridge in a pear tree. Well not the last one but great entertainment value.
Great having this season underway, bring on Waterford.

We were **** going forward yes, but Bray were a lot better in that game than I saw them all last season, which was about 6 times. They saw exactly what we were doing from the start, one dimensional football and snuffed us out. Blinks hardly touched the ball all game, nor did Raf when he came on.Quote:

Jesus what a complete ****. Your team has a slow start to the season and already your coming up with crap like this. you had a poor night and Bray worked their socks off and got a well deserved point, and dont presume when you play BRAY, GALWAY, or DROGS that you only have to turn up to get the points,it dont work like that.Quote:

IMO we should be scoring and beating teams like bray and galway if we are to get into the top positions . bray were relegated twice and stayed up so surely you agree that doesnt look good . would you think bray will be fighting for top 3 this year ? Stop taking s**t so personaly its football . take a look at the predictions for the game , all were rovers 2 bray 0 .
PS rocket i never mentioned DROGS so what are you saying about them .
Is Joe up to his old tricks again I wonder :rolleyes:Quote:

first football related thing you said , well done . whats more youre correct . who are ye playing next ? think ye will win ? just curious .
jesus harley chill the beanos if football was as predictable as you imply it should be it would be a sorry sport .dont come over all shams expecting people to tug their forlock when you play them, the result says to me that the gap is not as big as in some peoples minds
Except it's laced with opinion...the main default being that Sligo are contenders. You become contenders by getting results, not getting results by being contendersQuote:

sorry i beleive i said supposed contenders . this is not my opinion but is a fact backed up by the bookies no less ." laced with opinion",
please feel free to point it out . Rovers were expected by most to win the game . To do this they would have to score a goal . WTF is your problem if I want to criticise my teams lack of ability to score a goal . I made a statement that it not a good sign for us if we cant even score a goal against a team that had conceded 2.5 goals per game up til then . Sligo Rovers were tipped by most if not all as the closest chalangers to shams for the league . They have so far not lived up to that . Good result in Derry even if lucky (thats how you win leagues) , bad loss in Sligo against shams and a team to chalange for honours would have come out after that and (while facing one of the SUPPOSED weaker teams got all 3 points . Saying bray played better only supports my point of Rovers not being good enough . Last week it was said well it was shams and they are SUPPOSED to win the league so what now bray are to be second . We have not scored goals and have not even looked like we could . This is my problem with our team . I DONT BEGRUDGE BRAY ANYTHING . I would have expected rovers to have taken at least 7 of the 9 points from the 3 games after shams but the draw would have been DROGS not bray , now i see them losing the next 2 . I hope to be wrong . It appears that BOHS are the only contenders but dfx that is only my opinion .
Now you know what we put up with every time we beat them.Quote:

Oh yes btw football is very predictable if you can't score . Im upset that MY team isn't scoring and I said so why the F**k are you and the space cadet , I mean rocket feeling so bothered . I see nothing wrong with me expecting to beat bray either , in fact the majority on here thought they would . I now however have great concerns about us staying up due to the fact that we CANT SCORE .THIS SEEMS LOGICAL TO ME . perhaps you can enlighten me without insulting me .
Understandably.Quote:

Relax your head harley. The season has just started, we have played 3 games and conceded only one goal (which was a gift) against three decent teams. We might not be scoring but were creating good chances, give it time instead of ranting from New York about games that you havent even seen.
There is no easy way to say this but you are turning into our equivilant of Mypost.Quote:

If you think that its ok that we cant score then thats ok but if I dont agree then surely thats allowed too ? Please dont have the cheek to bring up my location in the world as a slag as Im pretty sure I would have been in the Showgrounds long before you were aware of where they were . My son made his first visit at 4 weeks old . Support your team ,love your team and voice your opinions , thats how it is supposed to be . To Rasputin OUR LACK OF GOALS SHOULD BE YOUR CONCERN NOT MY DRIVEL . Also if my concern for my team is drivel to you I'd say you would be more of an embarressment to our club than me .
I never insulted you harley all Im saying is that the season is young, we are notorioulsy bad starters and the season is long. Give it time. I did addreess our goal scoring abilities - we are creating chances which is important, it will come. (Another night against Shams if our chances went in we could have beat them by 3 goals).Quote:

And what your son or how long you have been in the Showgrounds has got to do it, well I dont know.

Jeez lads take it to pms. At the moment I'd be more worried about our mid field I didn't see to much to inspire against Bray.
There is no point in you two fighting with each other. What you need to do is turn your frustration and anger on the players. Let them know how you feel. They are the ones causing the mess.Quote:
