I thought the title of this thread referred to a Chinese player joining the league! :eek:

Drogs 0-3 Us

Think it does. Not our fault they fielded a weakened side. We're also the only side to win up there this season, while the likes of Cork and Derry couldn't.

The ability to score a peno is the same in any league, be it here or Indonesia. For a gk, it requires you to save a shot from 12 yards. Murphy has done that every time.

We have gone to Cork, and Drogheda away twice this year, and kept clean sheets every time. How many other keepers have/will do that? He kept 23 clean sheets last season, saved all 4 penos he faced, and conceded 13 goals in 36 games. And unlike others, our keeper is part-time.

Ok, the rest of your post was pointless then.

I can't see anyone treating them as anything other than that. Who exactly is "under-rating" Rovers?

It's the lazy moron pundits I'm talking about not fans. If I hear "They're very well organised and will give the top sides a run for their money" one more time I'll turn violent.

This is the best side I've seen at Rovers in 20 years and it's the first Rovers team that I've genuinally loved in 20 years too. Guess I shouldn't let Osam, McGuinness, Gill, Stephen Finn etc bother me. :cool:

Didn't you hear the song:confused: NO-ONE likes them.

It's not as if the Shamrock fans care though.

Fenn and Mansaram are good players.
As far as i can tell, your strikers are a bit isolated with your direct style.

Obviously, you see more Bohs than me but somethings wrong if you're bringing someone in to do a job, for which you've already splashed big money out on 3 people to do already. Fenn, Crowe, Mansaram.

I agree, something is wrong.
Mansaram is a good target man, and he has been doing ok but he can't do what strikers are there for and that is score goals. Fenn is just plain lazy, no doubt he has talent but he isn't busting a gut to show it off.
Crowe on the other hand is working harder than I've ever seen him doing and isn't standing around sulking because the style of play isn't to his liking.

When we played in Dalymount this season Fenn looked like he didn't give a ****. Game only changed when Mansaram came on as he makes things very awkward for defenders under the high balls.

Mansaram does have the ability to hold the ball up well and feed in other players, but what Bohs really need is someone alongside Crowe who can score goals. Mans tends to work well off the bench. Fenn just hasn't shown anything that he is capable of. Put that togeter, we need another goalscorer.

I'd say everyone would be a winner if Fenn returned to the Cross.
Unsure if we'd pay the contract he's on now though.

From what Ive seen....

-------------------------- Ryan (St Pats) -----------------------

Heary (Bohs) ---- Gavin (Drogs) Cpt --- Gartland (Drogs)---- Webb (Drogs)


O'Donovan (Cork) --- Byrne (Drogs) --- Ndo (St Pats) --- O'Brien (Galway)


-------------------------- Zayed (Drogs) -------- Farren (Derry) ------------

SUBS

Murphy (Bohs) Glk
Feguson (Shamrock)
Shelly (Drogs)
Gamble (Cork)
Quigley (St Pats)

I dreamt last night Rico took over the Bohs managers job and Dolan was director of football, albeit a very skinny Dolan.

I must admit when I saw the title of this thread I thought someone'd signed a Malaysian international.:)
