what are yer thoughts on this one lads?i think we will win 1-0
Unfortunately, I expect a poor crowd & another draw, 0-0 or 1-1
Vital game,we really need a win in this one,moore even said it on MNS we need a win just to get our season up and running. Hopefully the weather is good too because when there was less rain before the bohs game the pitch wasn't as bad and also bad weather scares away sunshiners. I hope rovers can win with any scoreline,it would be nice to see boco get on the scoresheet too.
Cookie Monster says Peers and Butler are fit for Cobh.
Thank the lord!!
5/6 with bet365 is looking extremely tempting nowQuote:

I see a win but only by a goal though 1-0 i'd say and is after Moores great chance in UCD match does anyone think he'll get startin in Showgies ? and are peers and butler fit again ? if so hers my team if they are
Brush
Seamie Almeida Peers Butler
Cretaro Boco Moore Anto (or cash if fit)
Judge Faz
anyone else suggest putting in different players ?
If Moore does play it won't be in place of O'Grady anyway .
keep dreaming:rolleyes: moore isnt playing in on the pitch and leaving o'grady out he was the best player on the pitch on FridayQuote:

i keep saying that o'grady is very valuable to our team. he'd be one of the first names on my teamsheet. i think he's very good at what he does
There seemed to be more interest in ps2 football and liverpool legends than the beloved sligo rovers on this forum for the last week.
I hate to be negative but our manager and players would need to put 3 points on the board this weekend. no offence to cobh ramblers but this is the type of game we were winning fairly comfortably until the last 10 games of last season.
boco has flattered to decieve so far
faz and judge would want to pull their fingers out.
i feel the decision to take off anto murphy in the bohs game was hard to understand because his throws were causing pandemonium in the bohs defence.
before anyone says that you cant leave a player on for his throws alone , it was at the time our most potent weapon.
cookie(who i greatly admire as a person ) but i feel that he is at times very lenient on players who are not giving 100% eg taking off raf and putting on doherty while leaving faz and judge to sulk when things are not going their way.
i like to think that paul cook will be given every support for the full season and that he is the man to lead us to great glories
this weekends result is huge because a win will put us into mid table and an acceptable start but a loss or draw will define our season as a relegation struggle
agree with pretty much all of that. its a must win. and they ****ing better to put it frankly!
people are already getting on judges back and he's only started once. he played well when he came on against drogs and bohs, scored a hat-trick in the cup and is putting in the effort on his own with extra training.
judge is the best striker we have . what is he doing on the bench feo. its no good putting in extra training and not giving his all in matches. would cookie not play him if he thought his attitude was right.
there were times last year when he was unstoppable and i hope he refinds that form soon because we are going to struggle for goals if he doesnt.
the thing is he does put in effort, they all do. different types of players play differently, he wont go into many challenges, hes not like that i know it may sound wrong to some people but theres players like that, ronaldo dosnt like going into tackles either. its just their way of playing, ya maybe their not hard enough like but thats just the way it is. i hate going into tackles when iim playing nd theres players liken that on every team. he's brilliant on the ball and a threat for any defence
Heard Feeney supposed to be starting and Faz on the bench for Saturday night.

does anyone know what happened Faz?

Faz Kudozivic picked up an ankle injury in last weeks game against UCD
Agree with this. In all honesty we need to be beating Cobh. After the first 3 tough games and a poor run out against UCD, this has to represent a proper chance of getting the win. If we dont win, alot of questions will need to be asked - Anything less than 3 points from this fixture is not good enough.Quote:

The teams first competitive game and bar the seven minutes where we completely lost shape, we put in quite a good performance. (Not to mention the ****-up prior to kick-off). Granted, not a good result, but not the sort of performance you could be to critical of all things considered.
Game two, and you couldn’t complain about the result. Drogs haven’t had the greatest start but they will be there or there about at the business end of the season.
We were desperately unlucky against Bohs. If we had any luck, Almedia’s goal would have been allowed and we may have won the game.
As for the game against UCD; yes it was poor. The management acknowledged the performance was not up to scratch.
So we’ve had one bad performance this year, not including the Pat’s game because the opposition has a cohesion which could not be expected from Rovers.
So basically your insinuating “that serious questions” need to be asked should we have two poor games. If Almedia’s goal stood and we won that game, I’d imagine our start to the season wouldn’t have been all that bad.
Give me a break and get of Cook’s back and support the team.
What serious questions need to be asked?????
Your quick to forget what he did last season.
:ball:
Pony and trap firmly backed upQuote:

2-1 up so far Almeida with the first Danny Ventre (pelt it venrure on aertel) hopefully they can push on for the win
3-1 to Sligo Rovers now Boco with the 3rd
Good result. NOt the best performance of all time, but excellent none the less.
Conor, Seamie and Raff all once again outstanding. BUtler is getting more and more into it. Rommy is improving every game and delighted for him to score tonight! Hopefully a few more to come! Roll on 3 points in the Brandywell...
On another note, nice to see the wee piece in the programme: "in a clash of two of foot.ie's most well known Sligo Rovers posters Feo took on Fitzo with Feo winning 1-0 courtesy of an own goal which is impressive in it's own rght as it's hard to do in FIFA".
THanks for the name check Keith, but was the own goal bit necessary:D;)
its the first time i studied the league table.
i find that i avoid looking at the table unless we win.
excellent result, sloppy goals and ok performance.
the text message gave moore to start instead of raf- did he get injured?
Moore broke his fingure just before kick-off.Quote:

Not a great performance but tbh i couldn't care,we needed a win to get the confidence going and it was nice to see rommy score as well. I really thought we took the foot of the pedal in the 2nd half for about 20 mins(I know the wind was a factor). Feeney made a nuisance of himself and seamie was great as usual. I was delighted with judge he tried hard and won a few headers that somebody should have gotten on the end of and he nearly scored a lovely goal. I hate that when faz or judge make a slight mistake everybody goes OTT. However I'm not sure about Cash. I know we probably shouldn't be criticizing players but his touch was poor tonight. There definitely is a good player in him(he isn't a manson!!) but he just needs a bit of confidence. Hopefully butler and moore will be fit for derry and 6 points out of the next 9 should be the target.
Feeney was centre foward tonight, am I missing something! Dont think it will work against Derry.
What might you be missing?Quote:

Cobh's goal came from us going asleep on a free kick allowing their two players to play the ball to one another and get a decent cross in. I thought we were then worth our 2-1 lead at half time, but Cobh bossed the second half. I still think we are looking like a 45 minute team.
