Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Are all our home games the day after every other team plays ?
March 14th will be a big game, also looking forward to 4th April .
Coleman for Ireland
Ironic that we played Shamrock Rovers in the last ever competitive game on their old ground at Milltown and now we play them again in the first competitive match at their new ground in Tallagh.
cant wait to play shams in tallagh
You might have to. All indications are that the ground won't be ready
54,321 sold - wws will never die - ***

LOI section on balls.ie - http://balls.ie/league-of-ireland/
Having gone by the ground at the weekend seems alot of tidying up / finishing work needs to be done yet but you never know.
As for the coincidence of Rovers (of Sligo) being the first team to visit Shams (well possibly depending on the ongoing works) to visit Tallgaht is quiet a coincidence indeed!!
Fair play to the FAI....I mean imagine having such luck as to pull that one out on the computer fixture list programme.
You know the newspaper articles and TV coverage will be full of the last game at Milltown first game at Tallaght Stadium link when the game comes around.
Even Con Murphy of MNS mentioned what a great occasion and coincidence it would be in his interview with TBORST website back in November.
Absolutely gutted that I won't be able to make that first game at Tallaght but flights to Dublin for that weekend (with it being close to Paddy's Day) are just criminal.
Just booked my flights for my first game of the season though - Dundalk away on Friday 29th May. Ages away yet but can't wait - hope it doesn't get pp for any reason!!!
Keep on keepin' on.
The game won't be in tallaght because the floodlights won't be ready. They have to undergo 3 tests before they can be used in a LOI match. Sorry to blow the bubble but we'll be playing Shams in Tolka.
At least we can keep the "Homeless" jibe going for another while!!

Please God.
Only 3,000? I was thinking there would be a bigger crowd than that for this game.

We could obviously sell way more tickets than this for the first game as could any other club in similar circumstances, but to be honest the council are very nervous about safety etc especially as there prob wont even be a dry run under age match in the ground beforehand. Id say there might be a few 100 terrace tkts for behind either goal maybe released in the week before hand, but again the council are very nervous about safety
There are already over 1000 season tkts sold, I say final figure will be about 1500 so obviously tkts for the first game wont be easy to come by out of whats left over after the season tkt holders.
