    Positives

    so we all talking about where we going wrong and all the faults this year but surely there are some positives, our european adventure, players playing well this year, new signings, setanta cup, cork cup game. im sure everyone has something. maybe us like the team need to start thinking positively and with positivity things may improve. far too much complaining this weather(me included) and for all the rovers downfalls we have all had some positive experience this season surely ???

    we've added some quality to the squad in the summer
    seem to finally have an out and out striker
    still time to turn it around
    still in the cup
    still have the setanta cup
    2 wins in the space of 4 days could turn our season around (2 defeats could ruin it)
    steadying the ship financially (vincent nally)

    probably one or two more, cant think of them now though, plenty of negatives i can think of aswell

    Obviously it's been a depressing season, but the league cup run was enjoyable, despite the defeat against bohs (however one positive from the bohs game was the support. There was a huge crowd and we were very vocal. Why can't everyone join in at other away games though?!). We're still in the fai cup and the setanta cup and staying in the premier division is still in our hands. Yes, it has been tough season, but there's a long, long way to go. The trips to cork (in the cup) and derry away were top notch and will live long in my memory. The trip to albania has also provided many memories, despite the bad result. The home win against cork in the cup, well that's why we support the rovers, isn't it?

    I think Blinkhorn is an excellent signing, and can turn our season. He is exactly what we needed, and will work well with raf. I must say, and I always thought it, Boco has been fantastic this season. People say peersie is underrated, but I think rommy can also be taken for granted at times. He's our best player imho, and works so hard for the team.

    Keep the faith is my motto

    The first one(when we were winning with about 2 mins to go) was the best but I don't have a video of it. This is the one when we were 4-2 down:

    A positive is Rovers always responds when backed into a corner and we have to stay with them. We've faced a lot harder things off the pitch over the last year and a bit to start whining now, lot of digs at Cookie and the players recently, whether or not they are fair doesn't matter, this is the squad we have and the manager so lets stay positive.

    They know the pressure is on them, lets see if they react tomorrow night and the next dozen or so games. They do look a team with a fear in them, but looking through the expected starting line-up tomorrow, bar Martin Camano cos have only seen him play 55 mins, everyone of the players are top quality. They are playing for their futures, if they go down their full-time contracts go with them, you'd like to think we're all pulling in the same direction so lets keep it that way.

    To celebrate R&W Rover's coming of age gathering in Jimmy's from 5.30....he might not be there but sure it is the thought that counts. Forza Sligoman.

    Very ambitious considering the trouble we were in last summer. Hopefully it happen's and it all pays off, will do wonders for the club and will, as said in the Champion, "make it look like one of the finest grounds in the league". After losing the shed and now the original Jinks Avenue stand possibly going, where will the Forza Lads go then ? atleast until its done up until if it goes ahead.

    well no harm in thinking big it can only help us as a club, as long as we realise the limits financially.

    Hate positives as it always means you have just lost a game. Love to bet the house on Rovers winning tonight but all the positives have put me off.
