Really poor result for Bohs and the league .
One of our only professional sides getting beaten by part timers in the Welsh league in their pre season is bad enough, but to lose 4-0 i'm sorry but that's just disgraceful.
People across europe will think the league here is worse than it actually is/
Credit to TNS in winning their first ever european tie.
Really bad night for the League of Ireland
Like us or not but it may now be a good reason to come out in droves to help Sporting Fingal get past Maritimo on thursday ( Kids go free )
TNS are a full time proffessional side.Quote:

On the bright side the Bohs players are now available for Irish football's most important night of the season in the Aviva on the 4th.
Well, that's the final straw, I can't support LOI anymore. I'm off to hang myself because a team that I don't follow lost in Europe. I just can't take the embarrassment of facing barstoolers who won't even be aware of the result.
I mean, some of the comments on here are crazy. Bohs lost. Yes, it's embarrassing for them, and it's embarrassing to a lesser extent for the league. But so what? It's happened before, and will again. Any barstoolers who will have a laugh about it were never in a million years going to visit a LOI ground anyway.
My only real concern would be that this unexpected exit from Europe hits Bohs seemingly already precarious finances, but I hope not.
Otherwise I'll be at Limerick vs Monaghan on Friday with as much deluded optimism and enthusiasm as usual, and for me at least, the result will be forgotten.
Im scared now after the backlash Bohs are getting.:excruciating: :wink:
I pity the team they play at the weekend.
Some of the comments in this thread are hilarious!
And Bohs fans, there's absolutely no shame in getting a good hammering from a Welsh team in Europe, it happens the best of teams.
I wouldn't like to be a Bray fan at the weekend. Well, at any time really, but especially this weekend
Spare a thought for us Northerners, we suffer total humiliation like this season in season out :cool:
They deserve all they got..
Letting Ndo go shocked me!
Signing Quigley was an even bigger shock!!
But telling Crowe to get lost has to be the biggest joke of them all
we where hammered, levski where always going to beat us
bohs got humilated, just expected to turn up
I'd hope "Frank" aka "Irish Football Fan" comes on to Oriel web and has a large slice of humble pie
pmsl
And look what happened to you lot over the following years:eek:Quote:

Dundalk fans; Sofia, totally forgotten
Rovers fans; obviously
Shels fans; Obviously
Derry fans; LOL @ nutsy
Fingal fans; last remaining northside dublin club in europe
I'm sure there's a few others too. How can anyone say its a bad result for the league when at least a quarter of the league are delighted by it
Without the money that was expected to be coming into the Bohs coffers from tonights game, I'm pretty sure ye could be down here with us fairly sharpish. :)Quote:
