There has been as usual a very poor response from local businesses to our cup final appearance. Please name and shame here on this thread those local concerns who have not condescended to acknowledge it. I will start the ball rolling upper O Connell Street.
1. Easons
2. Wherlys Jewellers.
3. Hargadons Pub.
Not a good idea....posting stuff like that is hardly going to increase good will between the club and those businesses. They might or they might not support the club in the future but they certainly won't if people start naming them on the internet. Might be a better idea to name and give credit to the shops that are supporting us.
Yeah, I guess you are right Rovers Forever I was annoyed after coming home from town perhaps a mod might rename the thread name and acclaim. off the top of my head I seen.
1. Collerys
2. john Kent.
In fairness most shops have nothing up so no point naming them all. Just acknowledge the ones that have done something.
Keaneys, O'Heirs bakeries have stuff up. McHugh's have a cut-out of Raf in the window.
The Record Room has two red and white flags in the window
-they're for sale!!!! €6.99
Apart from these(GAA style) and whatever Rovers get next week, is there anywhere else selling. Looking for 1 half red the other white.
O' Heirs on gratton street have a very impressive window display. Tis nice to see.
Went through ballisodare tonight, fair play to them the have a big banner wishing the rovers well in the final, dont think to many clubs or towns will have that done.:ball:
What about red and white flags sticking out of all the top windows on O' Connell St ? Or even 1 side red and the other white. Would imagine O Connell Street would have ahd some sort of banner put up by now.
They had black and white bunting the last time the GAA were in something.Quote:

In 1994 the town was awash with red and white especially in the housing estates. Get it out the windows of yer houses.
so we're now a week away, is there anything planned for during the week? a build up to the game? think ocean fm are doing something?
seen a few signs and flags in tubbercurry the other day,
There'll be a Rovers jersey hanging on the window in a house in Rialto.
I have 2 big red and white flags (tifo size)...might be a bit too big for the window though.
Those flags in the window might help to keep the heat inQuote:

Considering half the squad have been living in the village during the course of the season we felt we should make an effort. Six of the players came down to the village on Saturday for a photo with a few of us from the club.Quote:

Seen that banner today, looks very well, musta cost a bob or two, lovely idea though.
Plenty of places in Castle street with window displays today. Record room, John Kents, O' Hehirs, Collerys, Aware menswear- think thats the name.
Cliffoney/Grange YFC have signs and flags up around Grange village.
Fair play to them, looks good
Foleys pub in Tubbercurry has a Rovers flag up.
the stars house in cartron has some vintage rovers shirts up
Penneys has a window with a Rovers kit and decorated in red and Rovers' items e.g Scarves.Quote:

heard a rumour detour in operation outside carrick roadworks could be still there sunday
That's not roadworks - it's flooding. 45 minutes to get through Carrick this evening but that's Friday and it shouldn't be too bad on Sunday.Quote:
