Let one in in the last minute, just in case we'd spoil our 100% record against them.
Bloody hell, only two teams beat us three times in the league - Cork and UCD. :eek:

ffs the poxy *******s:mad:.
Only one good thing has come out of tonight so, the spineless rat Sean Connor has officially left after months of pimping himself to other clubs:)
Thank fcuk he is finally gone.....wonder what kind of reception he got from the fans tonight?
Failed to score now from five of the last six games. Pats are starting to creep up. Team confidence must be very low.
Connor unprofessional....team suffered>
Attendance was 270. There was no reaction that I heard of any sort from anyone in the ground except for the goal at the end. It was too cold to move. You were pretty bad. We had a goal ruled out for offside, no idea if it was, but we had a fair few chances. I wouldn't say we deserved a total rout but a win was deserved.Quote:

I was reading the aertel report and it makes the game sound a lot more even than it was. Faz did hit the bar alright but it was one of those "Ah, sure I'll leave it, it's flying over" then take a late dip and smacks the bar. Our goal was really scrappy. Our lad dives and gets toe onto your backpass to nip it past the keeper. Manager to rush to his feet and slide at it again to roll it over the line. It's a weird one, you look bad every time you play us yet you've had a better and more exciting season.
PS, any idea who was in defence for us? Apart from Foy that is!
Sorry, Sligoman, I never took the team down or even heard the announcement. Don't even remember what any of them looked like. They weren't too sharp though.Quote:

Mulligan and McKenzie in the middle, Coleman and Fatso on the flanks.
Chances are they were U-21's as we had a lot of defensive problems due to injuries/suspensions tonight.Quote:

What was our midfield and who was up front?
Sligo Rovers: Brush; Coleman, McKenzie, Mulligan, Foy; Kudozovic, O'Grady, Hughes (Aisien 68), Curran, Singh; McTiernan (Mansaram 58).
Cheers... How did Choice play when he came on anyone know?
Did nothing of note to the best of my memory. Is it really true that Willie McStay wished to bring him into Celtic's youth fold?:confused:Quote:

All top players make it look so easy and Choice is a fine example of this..bit of a Kanu stlye of play,only he can take people on aswell.
Good..I hope he gets a fair share of it! He is also a Nigerian U-21 International player which means he must be a good player..:)
How in the name of Jaysus are Sligo fifth in the table? Delighted to see a promoted regional side do so well like, but you've been muck the three times against us and I just don't understand it at all?!?!
Seems to be part of a longstanding club tradition. :o Stu, can you remember the last time Rovers played well against UCD?Quote:

None of the back 4 who started against derry were playing so we were always gonna struggle at the back and there was a lot of mistakes. Started with one up front, presumably so the 5 in midfield could help the inexperienced back 4 but as always when we play one up front it doesnt go to well. Yet another loss to UCD and we deserved nothing less. There was no sign of Sean to appear out during the warm up but he did appear for the game!Quote:

Was pretty poor stuff indeed and bitterly cold. One of those games that you were just willing for the ref to blow for full time.
As mentioned above, Rovers only had one decent chance - when Faz hit the bar.
Not too many fans down as it. We were on the opposite side to Connor and he didn`t come near us. A few were at the fence on the far side when he was heading back into the changing rooms, but not too sure what sort of reception they gave him.
That was me and Red&White Rover at the fence we just shook hands with him at the end
faz, singh, foy were poor. coleman was a bit nervy lookin but did ok. choice and mansaram were poor mctiernan was probably our best player
we were on top for 1st 20 mins or so and had half chances but nothin more
