Not only did the players look disinterested, I thought Cook & Carr did too.....They never ventrued out of the dug-out to manage the players.

A blind man could have seen that we were constantly playing high balls to the forwards, who were up against the tallest donkey of a centre half inthe league and against a gale force wind. Did the manager not notice this?

Has he already given up on some of the players and is counting down the clock to July?

Oh by the way Paul a little acknowledgement at the end of the game to the supporters who travelled wouldn't go a miss either.

I know he'll be gone in July but don't know if he's officially gone yet. Was at the U-21's match yesterday.

Well at least you can remember his name because I wont bother to. Besides his five minutes against Longford he was largely forgettable.

This was the worst preformance all season! That preformance was unacceptable and not one player deserves his wages this week bar Cretaro who at least tried his hardest for the cause.
There was no effort shown on Friday night at all from the players. If the players played with as much heart shown by the supporters we would win alot more games.
A good gesture to sing the lads off the pitch (i joined in) but frankly they didn't deserve it.
After the game it was not the result that worried me most it was the effort shown by the players made me feal even more angry.

And as for the point made by showgies..... i mentioned it to a mate during the game that Cook didn't seem too trying at all(appart from the very odd shout).
I have not been impressed at all with the new manager so far.He doesn't seem to give a toss about the fans and takes us for granted. After the win over Cork he didn't give us a wave he walked straight down the tunnel. (Does anyone remember pats manager McDonald give the pats fans the fist after their 4-0 drubbing of us???? That is the kind of thing fans like to see).

Well, anyone going to play a football match in Bray should have allowed five hours to get there from Sligo. Have they never heard of the M50?

i was told on friday evening approx 3pm that a bus arrived at the showgrounds to collect players and when the manager saw the state of it he immediately told the players not to get on it as it was a total disgrace. as a result cars had to be arranged to get players to game. from what i know the guy who arrived with the bus has a contract with rovers but is owed for two trips by the club so as a result he decided not to supply them with the best bus he has. i also believe that the supporters trust have forked out on two occasions for a bus. in the circumstances you would have to say that this was not a great situation for the players having to drive up to the game. however lets not make to many excuses for them they are professionals who played bray (part timers). lets hope the cookie monster can impose himself you cant expect instant success over night but the players should always be playing for the club and the supporters.clets hope that we can get a performance out of them like the cork game against pats. if any players read these posts (as i have heard mentioned on the bulletin board) lads dont give up if yee apply yourselves there are better times ahead. yee can play football as yee have proved now go and believe in your ability

its true the supporters trust[its on the website] have paid for buses but not because the club cant pay for them,its because its beneficial to the club

also your reasoning for the poor quality bus is also false.
