LTID will tell you he's fan of Limerick and not the LOI, while I agree with a lot of what he says I do however wish Rovers the best of Luck, as I would any Irish team playing in Europe.Quote:

There's not one but TWO fairly light hearted ones off the top of my head in the last 24 hours. I couldn't be anused looking for more.
"Oh noes, someones doesn't luv da rovers, dey must be mentals." :bulgy:
I just opined on an opinion forum that I genuinely couldn't give one and that I struggle to understand the mentality of anyone who could unless they have a connection with the club or a bet on. Judging by the reaction to the post I'm not the only one. (not that I'd care if I was mind.)
I really, really, wouldn't worry about it too much if I was one of ye. :hug:
You need to get over yourself man. Speaking as someone who has always followed an English club, and attends a handful of LOI matches every season, I don't know of anyone that would love to see Rovers getting beaten, never mind hammered. Granted there's always a few that'll smirk if things turn out that way but it's certainly not the prevailing mood AFAIK. I remember a chap in work racing around the corner to Buswell's Hotel in 2004 or so to hand over his £2k to keep the club going. It'll be him I'm thinking of while watching the match. Best of luck to them.Quote:

Overall, fair comment tho.
I'm up for Juve.
I remember flicking between TV channels a few years ago watching Shels and Pat's in Europe. I hated Pat's for taking a bunch of Galway natives to the Club and i hated Shels for their cheque book method of building a Club. Yet still, I cheered when Shels went 3 goals up against Rangers and roared encouragement at the Saints as they held Celtic scoreless at Parkhead. Same when Cork beat Gothernburg and Sligo beat the Maltesers.
Tonight, my dislike for Rovers will not be forgotten but I really would love to see them thrash Juve 10 - 0.
It's a bit f**ked up, I know.
Come on Rovers, ye dirty freeloading Dubs.
se saltelli, muore Michael O'Neill.
Shamrock merda:D
Probably goes back further that mypost. Its more that its been handed down from generation to generation imo.Quote:

The fact that Shams were probably the team to beat those days made them easier to 'hate', and its just continued from there id say. Football fans can be a fickle old bunch.
That some Shams supporters think that they have a monopoly on the word 'Rovers' dosent add to it either.
I hope Rovers lose. (edited to acceptable foot.ie standards)
Predictable but brilliantly simple. (how can anyone say they hate them but want them to win - ridiculous).
Any other streams?
rte's is a bit... meh!
Fuuck it anyway!
yes Rovers fans, we were watching. :D :D
Very poor goal to give away. Your man Amauri couldn't have been any slower getting to the ball and still had acres.
Why is Cissokho being booed?
Had a laugh at that one myselfQuote:
