True that. A mate of mine in the Riverside Stand confirmed the punch last night cheers PS.
The gulf in class between Casso and the rest of the team sometimes is breathtaking.
I'm just glad we're not in the FD anymore. That says it all about this season.

The most disappointing thing about last night is not that we lost but that Bohs deserved to win.

After the Quigley epilepsy fiasco earlier in the season and now this Bray would really want to realise that they aren't going to win an Oscar this year.
It was quite amazing that even though there wasn't a bad tackle in the game, we still ended up with 9 men.

Maybe thats all Bray have got to go on, cheating? They didn't offer much else to be fair .... this is their clutching at straws

That's awful face, leave the poetry to the experts.

You could be onto something there ..... and there's loads to write about; "He got it so wrong, that referee McKell. Used the whistle so much, he'd have done better with a bell !!!"

Just looking at some of our season stats make for a disappointing read. If you want a laugh, go to www.sportsfile.com and search for "Stephen Kenny" and try find a photo of him looking happy/not stressed

Ha ha, thats true actually, and its only getting worse for him.

**Charlie Darwin** · 11/09/2012, 1:36 PM

Kenny is clueless.

The period before he took McCabe off was the only part of the game where Rovers were creating chances, and they were doing so with ease. Then he sticks Tommy Stewart on the wing, the team loses all shape and cue 30 minutes of aimless hoofball. Bohs played well and should have scored more. On the plus side, Shane O'Connor looks like a great signing. Ten times the player Powell is.

Would Derry fans be happy to take him back?

Why? You looking to drive him up? Just try it, the citizens of Derry have some form in making sure certain people can't get in.

Probably my favourite non-Pats player in the league. he is a class act. We were rumoured to be signing him last season, would love him playing for us.

...hes from Cork...

**Charlie Darwin** · 11/09/2012, 2:48 PM

I meant the club. That's why I said "at Cork" not "in Cork".

Was probably Rovers best player on the night. I though McCabe should have been taken off 10 minutes earlier. Twice in the space of a couple of minutes he was waiting for balls to come to him and defenders just jumped in ahead of him. Showed a terrible lack of concentration, although he was probably the most creative player for Rovers when he was switched on, he's very frustrating to watch because he clearly has bags of ability.

Bohs were very comfortable, madness just humping long balls onto McGuinness' head for long spells of the game, despite hitting the bar twice Rovers never really did enough to say they deserved to score. Despite a blunder for the goal Jansson made a few great saves, and it could have been more for Bohs, the one on one early in the second half should have been buried.

I just don't understand how Rovers always manage to look like a team lacking confidence, and it's not just a new thing in the Stephen Kenny era, they were like that under O'Neill too, they'd play some nice football, make one mistake and start humping the ball long and looking like rabbits in the headlights, the only real difference was that O'Neill's team was set up better defensively so they didn't get punished quite so often.
