It will take a back seat with alot of people because the rugby will be on
Foyzers the only inury doubt

well i would say the players are finding it hard to get motivated for this one as realistically there isn't anything to play for. europe is a bit out of reach and thankfully we are not going to be relegated.
if anything we should be gunning for a bit of revenge for the cup defeat that really took the wind out of our sails for this season.
but what will be annoying is that we will probably hammer them which will be all the more galling.
I'm predicting a ****e match but us to win 3-1. If he's playing, Foy with a free-kick for one of the goals.You obviously weren't at the Q and A last night then as Gerry Carr told us what he said to them to motivate them for this;) :DQuote:

ya but he is afraid that if he does play them we will lose and obviously he wants to win every gameQuote:

any rugby match shouldnt affect a crowd going to a football match in their local area. if anyone stays at home to watch that i hope they never call themselves a fan of sligo rovers
Agree, especially considering it's England Vs. South Africa. Nothing to do with Ireland.Quote:

P.S. best of luck, relegate them for knocking ye out of the cup !! ;) :D
id say we're strong favourites, waterford probably around 4/1?

We had nothing to play for.
Waterford had everything to play for.
And that was the difference.
As for Ventre, he is a decent footballer and was having a good game, but that takcle was shocking. He was'nt even close to the ball.
Ref poor as usual. He never lets the game flow, over fussy, books players over any little thing. I try not to criticize refs as everyone loves to hate them, but I hate to see this guy in the showgrounds. He allways makes it a poor game, and this one was never going to be that good to start with.
I don't for one minute believe this crap that we don't have anything to play for. Pride, we have pride to play for. We have a club to play for, a jersey, a crest, supporters, players themselves.
Tonight too many of our players just didn't give a damn. They have no pride in the jersey, no loyalty to the supporters.
Venture is a disgrace. He should be sent packing. He's no good to us sitting out suspensions and that's where this guy will send most of his time. He has no control over his little demon and because of this he'll always have a problem staying on the pitch.
The way I feel after this 'performance' I could have a swipe at nine of our starting eleven but I'll pull in my horns.
Bitterly disappointed on a bitterly cold night.
Terrible performance, in the 2nd half mainly. Tommy is such a liability in goals, too dramatic with easy saves. I just want this season to end to be honest because the players lately just don't seem to give a ****. In saying that, the ref tonight was shocking. Ventre's red card was justified and again, he's another liability in defence, hope he's gone for next season. Bring on shams:o.
the lads have no motivation, however there are fans paying to watch these games and the effort simply isn't being put in. The fans nearly deserved a refund after that! Poor crowd but i can see why.
ah i wouldn't really agree with that.i thought he did ok,couldn't be faulted foe the goals and in all honesty is distribution of the ball was actually better than brushie's.wouldn't have any problem having him as back-up at all.Quote:

Disgusting performance, was disgracefull. No heart, no effort. Granted the players didnt have any league goal to strive for but surely they could have respected the fans that turned up on the night, cause I certainly didnt go to watch that kind of sh!te. The players let the fans down big time last night, they werent fit to wear the club colours. Every game this season ive sang the players off but last night was different, the players just didnt care. Simple as that. And as for Ventre, at least he tried, there are alot bigger wasters on that pitch last night. Judge comes to mind.
Said it before, but Rovers have no need for two full time goal-keepers on the books. We don't have cover for other positions so why 2 full time keepers as its something we can't afford.Quote:

very disappointed with yer result lads. thats us fecked for survival now... oh well will have to aim for the cup final and maybe do a dundalk!
suppose ye can still beat bray tomorrow and bring it to 2 points, and get at least 3 points from the last 2 games and hope waterford lose all 3Quote:

Felt sorry for Faz, thought he really tried but cookie was giving him a hard time which seemed to be getting to him what with his frustrated demeanorwith some of the Waterford players.
The Ref was an idiot, spoils every game he is involved in bloody drama queen always wanting to be the centre of attention.
As for anybody who stayed at home to watch the rugby....SHAME ON YOU!!!
or a certain ex-member of this forum who left early:rolleyes:Quote:

is it my good friend ye're talking about?
I thought Judge was pathetic
awful
he doesnt tackle at all - rarely challenges at all - especially in the air
If ever there was a player I honestly thought was not at all trying - then its Judge vs waterford
the one and only(go on feo hit him!!)Quote:
