Bohs were touted as relegation candidates and they are four points ahead of you, Harps were another candidate and they are 2 points ahead of you, Drogheda are level with you on points. You'll probably be fine for relegation, but Europe looks like a tough ask at this point. You've only scored 7 goals, that has to be worrying, especially as you are creating so few chances.

Loving all this , wil remind you later....its Corks title to lose .. : )

The club right from the chairman down is riddled with an arrogance and condescending attitude that really irritates. While not all supporters are culpable, the majority are difficult to have any social contact with (either because of this patronising attitude or thuggish behaviour). The current manager is simply carrying on the tradition of delusions of grandeur that is cultivated and fostered within the club.

I have no doubt that Rovers will improve on their current 8th place (especially with Harps, Drogheda and Sligo being the next 3 matches) - but it is always good fun watching the soap opera unfold.

Whereas Cork fans are humble and Dundalk fans don't get carried away ??? Do you remember the "is this the greatest team ever debate?"
Rovers are just Irelands version of the ABU's in the EPL its a compliment to the club , the ABR's just don't get it

Rovers will be grand. They'll get something out of their games with Sligo and Drogheda.

**Nah Nah Nah Nah** · 27/03/2017, 11:50 AM

If they can't get anything out of their game with us they'll be in serious trouble

You should book yourself and a few mates into the 1899 suite Nigel, few beers and a meal and the banter was good last week with a few of the Cork lads.

They brought in same sex marriage there last year but I think interclub marriages are a step to far : )
I'll stick with the missus who is even more fanatical then me about the biggest club in Ireland.

Will you have any shots on target during this battering? Or will it be like your last battering?

You are welcome to, won't change the fact that your season is over (bar a relegation battle) and it isn't April yet. Whether we win or lose the title we will be in the title hunt. Rovers meanwhile? I suppose you can book your summer holidays for 2018 now, get a good deal.

Bitterness is a terrible thing...let it go.

Did you make it to Turners Cross on Saturday? That was a nice one to get to if you did!

On the Rovers point. I did find it amusing when the hyperbole started before the start of the season. I find it less amusing now though. Maybe I'm getting soft.

**El-Pietro** · 27/03/2017, 2:09 PM

Not bitter at all, I'm enjoying the impending Rovers meltdown!

**Ezeikial** · 27/03/2017, 2:10 PM

It must be very exciting for Harps fans, getting to a cup final so early in the season

**sulywaterfordfc** · 27/03/2017, 2:58 PM

Highlights from Waterfords 2-0 win over Wexford. Which saw Waterford extend our unbeaten run to four games. https://youtu.be/MeTR2aUVEBo

I did indeed get there and have the country tan to show for it.
Thought Cork were deserved winners and kilduffs lack of a first touch that led to a goal for McMillen led to a degree of panic from Cork that kind of showed how much they needed/wanted the win considering how comfortable Cork looked up to that point.
Was delighted for Shep he was always one of my favourite players when he was at Rovers, always thought he should score more goals but he gives a lot for the team always.
Don't worry about Rovers we will come back, life is a rollercoaster nothing surer
