Its really not that complicated!!!
where the hell was the interview with a Rovers official!! ****in RTE Shams love in!!
its called pitch management -because there are so many games played there the pitch is in a different position during the winter months and is moved back for the league of ireland season with dug outs on other side of pitch gives new goal areas,lineman runs etc
Waiting for it to be put online.

Yeah I wonder why they did that?! Can't think of anything that went on down Rovers way this week.
Are you a bit slow?
mervue reckon that they will be back playing up in fahys field by the end of April, IIRC.
I'm watching this and they've covered 2 games so far. No replays of the goals or sending off. The commentary is just a news report. At least watching motd you can get a good idea of how a match went, who played well, etc. With this show we're just going on what people are saying. We might as well be reading match reports in the paper.

slow? yes quite possibly.
But it was still 11 v 11...2 teams, and they only got the views of the game from the Shamrock side, we never got a mention at all!
email them and let them know, or contact the fanscope hotline and let them know what you think.slow? yes quite possibly.

The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
aye, i did last night.
The league of ireland is a bitter place, but Sligo Rovers fans on here have to be the most bitter, which is really saying something.slow? yes quite possibly.

Do you really think the viewing public would have preferred an in-depth treatise on that full back sh!tting himself every time the ball came to him, or a look at the newest infrastructure in the league and the biggest story to hit the LoI in a long time, a stadium two decades in the making for the biggest and perhaps biggest draw in the league.
MSN and RTÉ don't owe some duty to you or your club meaning they have to get a fascinating quote from Paul Cook illuminating to the general public that 'at the end of the day it was a game of two halves and he's delighted with the effort put in but its time to cut out the silly mistakes and I dont mean to criticise the referee, but at the end of the day...'
Quite clearly the story wasn't about Sligo that day, either on or off the pitch. I don't think MNS will be destraught at your email whining about not getting a soundbite from a player/manager in one of the 30 odd episodes this season.
what a rant!!!
My point simply was asking why there was no Sligo Rovers official/players view.
Little time to be at nothin' ha?
Because the entire piece was clearly about the opening of a new stadium which off the pitch had nothing to do with Sligo. On the pitch, Sligo were hardly in the game. The viewing public wouldn't have really given a toss about what Sligo officials had to say about an ocassion not really about them, and so they quite rightly spent extra time showing the new stadium and the people affected by it.
But instead you email in a complaint because you didn't get to hear Cook say the stadium was lovely and best of luck to Shamrock Rovers.
Well in fairness, if it was the other way round and it was Shamrock who were the off form side on the night, i would like to know what Mr. O Neill had to say about it
But hey, im slow, what do i know
never mind that sligo nonsense, what was that car crash tv with the karaoeke ?

I worry about some people on here, Jicked come on like! 1 game, 2 teams. Whatever about all the pre-match stuff showing Shams but not to have an interview with someone from Rovers was a joke.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
The only joke is the massive chip on Sligo fans shoulders. Everything from your refusal to even refer to them as "Shamrock Rovers" to some fans on here wanting the hoops to lose their gaa case, seemingly because they both share the term 'rovers' is cringeworthy.
The game wasn't about Sligo in the end, it wasn't an ordinary league meeting between the two in the great scheme of things, and even more unordinary if you're the producers of a TV show trying to look for the odd "angle" to make your show look fresh. If you want Cook's opinion check your website.
If at the end of the season Shamrock Rovers are playing the champions elect in a dead rubber of a game, and afterwards MNS decide to focus on the presentation of a trophy, celebrations of the champions or a recap of their season I can't see any Rovers suffering from such an inferiority complex that they complain about not hearing their manager's comments on how delighted he is for team x to have won the league.
How DARE we not call them Rovers. The bare faced cheek of us to call our own team "Rovers" and point blank REFUSE to call another team by the same name.
We are just ungrateful.
Lads - relax - we're not making a Western over here (Junior Soprano series 1). By the way, has anybody noticed that Jackie's 60 is gone and replaced by some karaoke nonsense ?
