    Rovers 1-1 Galway

    Raging.

    Think we edged it slightly, Galway came to life after we scored though and could easily have won it in the end, although so could we, McT with a great chance. Anything less than 3 points next week and we can forget about 4th imo.

    We should have been ahead at half time,missed a few good chances,especially headers. Twas dissappointing to let them back into it. Raf was superb but i think we would have won it had boco been there. Mcdaid isn't quite good enough yet. Feeney added an extra dimension when he came on. Mct should have scored at the end.

    Yep, disappointed with the draw. We had enough good chances to win the game. A stunning goal by Raf, he is having a great season. Boco would certainly made a difference tonight.

    Another cracking display by the Forza guys, well done again.

    This was posted on another forum by one of the Forza Rovers lads.

    Last week our manager asked supporters to keep the faith with his team. So we made a portrait two stick of each player and the manager with the banner "SEMPER FIDELIS" (always faithful)

    Cretaro is player of the season, but Coleman is player of the decade.

    Yes but in fairness ye could have nicked it.
    I know this may be a controversial view with a lot of yous. But tonight i felt bad tactical desicions lost us the three points. Cooke had 3 strickers on the bench. And it wasn't til 10mins to go until one was brought on. When clearly Mcdaid was poor and not going to score a blind man would have told ya that Mct should have been on. Instead he leaves it with 3mins to go. And in those 3mins Mct creates the chance of the game. But he didn't have long enough to create any more. Also when it was so evident we needed a stricker on the pitch he leaves it until 80th minute to make a change.
    Very dissapointed last night.

    On another note fair play to the lads who done that banner! Brilliant stuff.

    Have to say absolute fair play Sean and his brothers on the banners.

    Absolutely different class.

    Maybe not, that'd be them minus 10. Still would have to catch Cork though*.

    *I know we still may get into Europe without 4th if/when Cork are punished further next season but still.

    Take the point and run could make the difference to you in the end , performance of the year from Raf and a great game from Coleman as well , pity we couldn't get the second goal to finish off the game , mcdaid looked a bit lightweight and wasn't getting into positions in the box surprised McT wasn't brought on earlier , I didn't get a good view of the penalty but their were few complaints from the players so must of been one , the penalty came from an imaginary free kick after a galway player lost his footing when peers was at least a yard away from him. Great crowd at the game and a lot for away fans plenty of enterainment should get people back again for the next few home games , one of the most hardworking and talented rovers teams ever which is a credit to the manager and players given all thats happened this season of the field.

    i was a long way away from the penalty incident and did not see who committed the foul but did see one of our players jumping in two footed in the box which was immediately followed by the referees whistle for a penalty.
    i have been told subsequently that it was once again danny ventre.
    his discipline is seriously questionable and i think cookie will offload him at the end of the year to bring in someone better.

    great performances from seamie and raf - i thought judge deserved a run as well as we were too small up front.

    give credit to galway for their battling qualities.

    a wonderful display from forza rovers, it was class stuff.

    i thought raf was outstanding & some goal. galway were decent going forward but very ropey at the back. if we had taken our chances the game would have been long over as a contest before half time. it was a must win game for them (the way other results went on friday night) & they did well to salvage a draw.

    Out of interest, has Brush ever saved a penalty for us? He got close this time, just can't remember him ever saving one.

    Yeah he saved a penalty on the 4th minute against Derry City last season at the Showgrounds, match ended in a 2-0 loss though.
    Coleman for Ireland

    That's harsh on Danny. He's a limited player, but he gives his all and fills in wherever he's needed. To my mind, he's a mini Carragher. Obviously not quite as good, though.
