Thanks all, I can't remember a better night in my life, which is sad, but I could not care less:)

Thanks all, I can't remember a better night in my life, which is sad, but I could not care less:)
Looking forward to a repeat of the epic 2009 encounters next season! :)
Well done Shels. Had to happen some year; reckon ye've served enough of a penance.
If Cork come up in place of Galway, and possibly Mons or Limerick depending on how things go at Bohs, next years Premier has the potential to be very strong IMO
Congratulations to Shelbourne. Enjoy the celebrations, especially the players, They deserve a good few days on the lash. Just Turn up on time saturday....
Congrats Shels. A couple of seasons' frustration must make it all the sweeter.
Well done Shels. Pleased for Alan Mathews and the lads who were with him in Longford, Jacko Smyth, Shay Kelly. Paisley too, didn't leave us in the happiest of circumstances but he's a decent guy.
Heartening to see all the good will for us.
Ecstatic so I am.
Nice to see all the positive messages on here. It hasn't sunk in for me yet but a fantastic night all the same.
Congrats to Shels, the most consistent team for the 1st 2/3 of the season. It sets Saturday's game up very nicely for yourselves. Also, it's crazy to think that at full-time, both teams may be celebrating. Although a draw is the only result that constitutes that provided Monaghan win.
Looking forward to reigniting the aul Shels rivalry. Well done.
Congrats to Shels, well deserved and about time.
Which is ok enough for me after Roddy's comments about us on extratime.ie. I'd have no real problems with a draw sending up as Champs and hopefully dumping Roddy into a playoff and allow Galway do a Bray and discover how to play football for one night against the Mons.Quote:

Not so well but I think I could pick myself up from it. After 5 years down here the league title can't represent as much as last night did. Icing and cake are 2 very apt words.Quote:

I think that if we win the cup that the place for Europe goes to the league standings and not to Shels.Quote:

Well done Shels and well deserved.
Well done to Shels. About time. Hopefully a couple of nights in the Riverside to come.
Rovers' best night in 2006 was sealing top spot by beating Finn Harps 4-0 in the second last game in Tolka and it's worked out ok, so history may repeat itself...
We're good like that. Always for helping the clubs. Funnily enough we got Shamrock Rovers on their way financially with a bucket collection too when they were struggling. Pity the favour doesn't get returned ;PQuote:
