Games weekend 15th to 18th October

Last night's goal was not Gannon's fault, done on the break from Watts messing around in Bohs box. Entire defence out of position and Bohs broke at pace. He's been great since he moved into the back 3 while admittedly he never looked comfortable at RWB. He's first choice now on the right of the back 3 for a reason. Hoare is a squad player, nothing more.

Agree about the squad, McGinty, Whelan and a LWB and we're done IMO.

Did want to point out though that, contrary to one unrepresentative Rovers poster on here, Sean Gannon has been immense since moving to the right side of the back 3 and was just behind Chris McCann as our best player 2nd half last night.

Next season will probably be Cotter/Finn at RWB, Pico, Grace and Gannon back 3 and a new LWB to compete with Farrugia as poor Kavo sadly looks finished.

Agreed. I think Gannon's been good since moving to RCB even though he struggled at RWB and probably put a lot of people off. McCann also did well last night. Not sure where that level of performance has been from him but possibly that injury he picked up was restricting him. Hoare is a different story for me. Seems ok on the right side of the 3 and was solid in the middle last night after Pico saw red but some of our worst displays have involved him on the left. He was fantastic early on in the season but lost his way, oddly as the rest of the team got better. Not sure what to make of him.

Very sad to see Kavo go down again. Lovely footballer who I was hoping would be with us for a long time.

Fair enough will agree to disagree and great thing is that it’s a real case of a minor ‘ first world problem’ in the context of our current domination
