    I can safely say this is only time where Tallaght will be a more desirable place to be than Paris.

    Season ticket holders should definitley be given first preference. Don't want fellas who go to games week in week out not get a ticket because of some event junkie. With there "we" and "us"

    As Shiba said, sell them at the Drogheda game (1 ticket per person). The regulars will get them and you can give the scraps to the barstollers.
    Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
    Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
    Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!

    I think my season ticket idea is a runner.

    Can anyone confirm what the position is with players on yellow cards close to suspension?...Im fairly sure ogrady misses a game now..Hopfully not the final...

    well done to all players and fans who contributed to a great night...if we could even retain 10% of the sunshiners for next season would be big boost for club

    What I heard last night is O'Grady misses the final(as a result of picking up a yellow last night, his own fault btw, don't know why he did it) but Blinkhorn can appeal being suspended for the final.
    Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.

    Cant beleive O' Grady tought he'd get away with that handball. There was already talk of him missing the final, now he surely will, what are the chances he'll ever play in the Cup Final with his hometown team again ? That spoiled a great performance for him but i'd be more concerned if Blinkhorn misses the final, he was top notch all night for us.

    Ya but there's only 3 or 400 season ticket holders (i think), and we have averaged nearly 2000 at our home games this season. Sell an 'advanced ticket' or somthing like that at the Drogheda game.
    Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
    Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
    Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!

    Conor should appeal. It was a very harsh yellow. The handball provided no advantage, it wasn't devious and it practically played him!! Just look at the other 2 yellows 1 Waterford and the other Rovers. The other Rovers yellow was for passing a ball back so the free could be taken! The Waterford lad reacted as if a train had driven into his liathróidí! The Waterford yellow wasn't a yellow either. Conor should appeal and he'd win.

    Even though I'm not one season ticket holders should be given preference. Hopefully, everyone of us genuine fans will get a ticket. We will. Where there's a will there's a way!

    He should've told him it was Albert Straka And then you get fans calling Raff, Ralph as someone said on this thread. Just on the subject of sunshiners, I once heard someone shout "come on Dick Bush!" and he was convinced that was his name .

    Can anyone actually explain why the suspension list is being written up at the end of the month ? it could easily have been done weeks ago and we'd still have Conor(well, maybe) and Blinkhorn definately available for the final.

    Don't be ridiculous, It was a deliberate, stupid handball. Definite yellow.

    Join VHI. Go to Paris, fall ill there after the match, VHI will airlift you back to The Blackrock Clinic. Make a miraculous recovery on Saturday evening and discharge yourself. Head for Tallaght on Sunday and take Ryanair home on Sunday evening.
    Thank you and good night.

    PS. I'm here all week if you need anything else.

    Real pity if o'grady is out for the final. He deserves the chance to lead his home town team out for the final. Saying that it was a stupid yellow to get last night. I presume there is no chance of Brush being back in time, as he too has made a big contribution to this great cup run.

    IMO the FAI would not be having the final in Tallaght unless the temp seating was being installed similar to the real madrid game in the summer. Both teams should be offered an allocation of 5,000 and if Bray/Fingal don't take their full allocation we could possibly be offered more. I don't see any problem with regulars getting tickets.

    Why the panic!Cos its like always the sunshiners come along get their tickets and the genuine supporter losses out due to poor planning,But what the club has done right over the last few games is put them on sale at home games.I hope they stick to this procedure now.Cause next season the hardcore fans will be back and these sunshiners will run the club down as always.Just to point out even do I agreeabout season ticket holders should be gaunteed tickets not all regulars are.Also with the times that are in it a burdon should not be put on people to buy them next year some may not be able to afford them

    Not part of the Forza crew myself but love being in that part of the ground and making noise for the ninety minutes. Two of us couldn't get into the Jinks at first last night because of the sunshiners. If Forza get an area set aside can the details be posted up here.The atmosphere last night was unreal and fair play to the travelling support.
