I have to say terry I dont know how you can call your self a supporter of anything. :confused:
All you are is a fool.
We all know the game was not great last night but we are stll joint 3rd in the table which is a huge improvement on where we were this time last season.
There are still 2 rounds to play and if the players are signed that we want then I think we will push hard for promotion.
It is sad when pepole knock the club when there is no need for it.
Things are a lot better this year then last so lets concentrate on that as far as I am concerned as long as we finish above where we were at the end of the last season we will have made progress.
The team is not settled , players are continually played out of position to accomodate injuries and suspensions. The defense has being very vulnerable as a result of continuous change. You need to have a set back four that understand each other, a keeper that will shout and roar at them and a midfield that will track runs made from midfield.
This team has great potential and have played, albeit rarely, some excellent football. With the new signings coming and if a constant 11 can be assembled then yes we can make a real challenge. Some of the results in this division have been bizarre ...... so I think it is still up for grabs... come on the Rams
the Vikings did everything to let us back in the game. They should have really pasted us in the game. At least 4 up at halftime. It was probably our worst performance that I have seen in a very long time.Quote:

Hendo needs to get the lads motivated both on the field and dressing room (didn't see or hear him shout 1 piece of advise or try change the formation during the game). No imagination or tactical sense. As bad as we were changes in the team should have being made after the first goal. It was obvious we didn't have the capability to trouble DFC with the team formation as it was. I don't mind losing as long as an effort is made to compete but I felt we were leaderless both on and off the pitch.
Lets hope the team incl management wake up sooner rather than later. :confused: :ball:
:mad:colin falvey is terrible j meade is no better brossy is crap!why'd he bother coming back??Quote:

Hear , hear.... back to playschool until you understand the game a bit better..... if you think a town with a pick from 14000 people can be evenly matched with a City of 1.5 Million then I think you misunderstand the situation a little bit. And to insult some of the players in the manner that you have on this posting for their time, efforts and hard work put in all week to entertain you on a Saturday is a disgrace which clearly proves the above point.Quote:

..if were going to support them after a preformace like that then they're not going to be botherd if they win lose or draw!Quote:
as they deserve
its people like you are the reason were rotting away in the first divsion,i'll tell you something if sligo rovers,cork city or any of the other teams that are doing well put on that performance they'd be booed of the pitch by their fans!!
booing shows passion and a will to win,the players arent going to give a **** how they do if the fans dont.
time for everyone to get there ass in gear now or else look forward to another year in this division. :mad:
I have to agree I think we should get behind the boys but it makes it laugh to see Terry 9 that you are most vocal when Ramblers dont do well. I think you enjoy knocking the Cobh lads and to be honest I think I will speak for most people when I say I am sick to death of your negitivity. Ramblers are still joint third which is a BIG improvement on previous years. But people like you are never happy. Of course there is room for improvement and I'm sure the managment know this and are working hard on it! I have been looking on other sites with defeats for their sides and surprsie surprise they do not knock their side when they under perform but get behind them perhaps we should take a leaf out of their book - have a look at support Limerick have win, lose or draw!
i strive for perfection.
Well said C&B. At least most of our fans seem to have realistic expectations with limited resources and probably the lowest budget for players in the 1st Division. To be in 3rd place and still in with a chance of going up is a great achievement by a very young bunch of players. To be ahead of Big City clubs like Limerick, Galway, Kilkenny and even Kildare with their support and money is a good achievement to date.Quote:

where's all our money from the roy keane game gone rambler 1??
and what about the couple of million we got from selling the kids pitch??
and oh wait..the grant from the FAI???
:confused: :mad:
were not as bad of financialy as you and many other fans let on my friend so stop using money as an excuse! :mad:
we have more than enough!
Em Daw...we didnt make that much from the Roy Keane deal and the rest was to pay off debts etc...if you were a season ticket holder you would of been told that at the AGM by our previous chairman! Rambler 1 is right we have the lowest budget in the first division! We all strive for perfection but with realistic goals!
after all that we still would have a lot of money,3 million for the pitch,where did that go to??
singing Carey i suppose.. :rolleyes:
R u for real boy 3 million your head is obviously in the clouds????Quote:

It doesn't matter I'm sure you will get to them :rolleyes: Look why don't we just keep our fingers crossed and think positive and hopefully the boys will bring us home three points at the weekend :) :)

I have to back Terry9 on this topic. We are fed up of just making up numbers in the first division... I think we're the longest serving team in the first division!! for the club to advance we have to have ambition ...aim for the stars and fall on the trees.
The club will have to use all its amenities to generate a sustainable income to cover player wages... everybody knows that nowadays it's money that dictates success on the pitch... like it or not. The club is remembered for two things..... the heroic feats of sniffer O'Neill and co. in the cup over twenty years ago and Roy Keane. Its now time for the club to get off its backside and attain success, it's the only way to get the crowds in.
Saying all of that, credit to the management and players for the job they do and for the money they get paid, but you have to be clinical in your appraisal of players and management .... also the committee has to perform financially to make the budget available to the manager.
Terry 9 your misunderstood!!!!

we have a very good team were just never ever consistint!!
the players have to put in the effort every week,were more than able to mix it with the big boys!!
Fair point but would you not agree that it must be hard to keep such a young team (with alot of potential, that we both agree on) who in my opinion are obviously eager to get on and yet they still have a lot to learn. They are quite young, I mean look how young Cork City were last year and everytime I picked up the paper, people were emphasing how young they were. Look at them 2nd in the league last year and look how well they have done this year. They needed experience and time to work together as a team, but I suppose it all takes time. I also think that we have a lot of young COBH lads in the squad who are working very hard and are also young, which is another reason why I think that we should support them and the management as ALL THE SQUAD are doing well and from what I hear are working very hard and I believe they can only get better !!!!
Which goes to show why I will be ignoring your posts from now on. BTW there is a small difference between 3 million and 700000 ...em... approx 2.3 million but I dont expect this little matter will stop ye slagging off everyone and anyone so enjoy yerself and have a good lashing ....I think everyone realises where your coming from now.Quote:

That does not even start to cover a league of Ireland teams expenses. We have to depend on tickets and bar income / functions to do that which does not leave a lot left over.Quote:
