Saw a good few posters around today. Similar size to last one but way less attention grabbing. A4 ones doing the rounds too. Great to see them though
Season tickets arent valid so bigger queues anticipated...get there early in other words.

i'll go for 2-0 rovers, edgy first half but our class to show in the 2nd half and we'll pull away.....

rovers clean bill of health , like RT i'd say its gonna be tough and we will need to be full strength
Should win. Waterford are muck but at the same time we can't let our guard down or they could sneak one. They'll probably be hoping for penalties.
Anyone know if it's golden goal in extra time or are both halves played?
I think golden goal was scrapped its just 2 normal halvesQuote:

make no mistake about it this is going to be another dogfight we will have to be at our best to win. fully focussed and up for it . this game is a one off a cup game all this talk about 3 nil and 4 nil wins is stupid. complacency from supporters can rub off on the players. we must support the team as if our lives depended on it . waterford have nothing to lose as i said before we are a better footballing side and we will get chances but we must take these chances. a lot of people are going to the game tomorrow night expecting a win. this can be dangerous as a complacent crowd wont rise the team and when things start going wrong they get on the teams back therefore it is imperative that we the supporters are very vocal supporting the bit o red. encourage them and they will deliver . make it a carnival atmosphere with flags etc. yee lads in the blue stand sing and shout exactly the way yee did against shams and bray. yee are the vital cog and the connection with the team. the crowd in the main stand are always expectant(i go there myself cause i have 2 young lads with me. i used to be a shed head years ago) so i know what its like to be passionate about the rovers. do the business lads. gather the troups and sing your hearts out for the lads. if we can win thiss game i see a great finish to the season. best of luck
Prediction: 3-1 to Rovers. Rovers take the lead but then Waterford equalise and then we pull away. Curran with one of the goals.
prediction: 2-1 to rovers, faz and boyd with the goals
IMO if we are to win this game, we must score first. We saw what happened last Friday in Waterford when they scored. Everyone behind the ball and then give us no time or opportunitys to pass.
If we score first they have to come out and play football. That's when we are at our best. We have space to move the ball at pace.
1-nil to Rovers will do fine, but it will be nail biting.
What happens if the score is level at full time? Is there extra time or penalties?
Extra time then penalties.Quote:

Have backed Rovers -1 tonight.
We haven't got a single full-time pro these days. All of them were back in work on Wednesday. After scoring the winning penalty, Robbie Hedderman was in work at 9 o'clock on Wednesday morning. Pat Flynn, our man-of-the-match had pulled sickies on Monday and Tuesday (do his employers not read the paper??). Gareth Cronin could only join the squad at 3pm on Tuesday after a morning's work in Dublin. But they get no praise for it. As one of the lads said, they could walk down the street in Waterford and not be recognised, but if you put a hurl in their hand, people would be lauding them for their dedication to the sport.Quote:
