Any idea of Bohs traveling Figures
Didn't Gent do the exact same against Pat's a couple of years back?Originally Posted by jorge
Any idea of Bohs traveling Figures
@ Pineapple Stu:
Gent lost at Richmond Park 3-1 and won the home leg 2-0 then. That was in 2002 or 2003, probably a Pats fan can specify.
Too bad for Bohs, if they'd have pushed through the second round was a reasonable one as well (Czech or Belaruse club) and the third round meant a clash with Valencia. Imagine how many euro Bohs could have gotten from ticketsales and TV if they'd have played Valencia... And it would be great for Irish football, I bet many football fans that don't follow the EL may have turned up at Dalymount if a local side plays a giant like Valencia.
first EL team not to progress in the intertoto in 4 years.
well done bozos, made a show of the league in europe again.
best bit was they were already going to valencia on gyppo web, gent and the eastern europeans were a mere formality.![]()

I know that, but I think in Belgium, Gent scored inside the first minute and were 2-0 up after ten minutes as well.Originally Posted by Gerrit

We'll take care of the Euro show.
At home, you do it all by yourselves.
Yeah just like you did on saturday?!![]()
Whats worse is that they just started back in training.

General consensus between us all there was that there was something in the area of about 400 Bohs fans at the game.Originally Posted by D2 Red
Three big big defensive errors for the goals - the first one conceded after about 30 seconds really knocked the stuffing out of the team.
When we finally did decide to play (for about the last 20 minutes of the second half) - we dominated - as we did for big periods of the first leg.
Stonewall penalty not given when the Herpoel (the Gent keeper) took Grant out of it off the ball.
Missed an open goal from 6 yards three minutes from time (if anyone had got anything on it - it would have gone in - and we would have progressed).
Unlucky to lose out in the end - but a good time was had by all.
To all the decent fans on here (Shels, Athlone, Pats, Galway, Cork, etc.) who were cheering for us over both games - fair play - thanks for the support - which will be reciprocated in kind.
On the other hand - to all the Rovers fans on here having a go at us and sticking the boot in (who'd have thought eh, Rovers fans sticking the boot into someone) - enjoy your BIG overnighter away trip to Bray - bunch of minnows.
Hope you choke on your eviction notices
Kom Igen, FCK...
Oh dear, oh dear, I wasn't going to bother sticking the boot in but that bitter little rant is too much of an invitation.Originally Posted by Réiteoir
Two years running you've disgraced yourselves in Europe - and this time you don't even have Stephen Kenny to blame.![]()
BTW there was no eviction notice, there was a weasly half-hearted warning letter. Hilarious considering you need our money more than ever now.
And yes we will enjoy our little jolly-up to Bray, thanks for your best wishes. We'll send you a postcard as long as you promise to send one from Valencia.![]()

No One Likes Us, We Don't Care
Just three defensive howlers and a goalkeeper saving a soft one on the line that if anyone had have got anything onto it would have gone in and we would have progressed on away goals.Originally Posted by WeAreRovers
Yeah - I'll do that - I'm off to that part of Spain for a week in September anyway.
Now which stadium shall i post the card to? Better give me a list of ones you're yet to be thrown out of so I can post cards to each one.
Kom Igen, FCK...
In fairness, I don't see how losing to Gent - a team from the tenth-ranked league in Europe compared to our 42nd ranking - is a disgrace!Originally Posted by WeAreRovers
I'm disapointed that Bohs didn't get through, but they didn't disgrace the eL by any means. Obviously the Intertoto doesn't earn any co-efficient points, but Bohs did win a game (and it could have been a lot handier than 1-0).
In the CL and UEFA Cup, the eL teams need to win games, rather than scrape by with draws. Even one win in Europe is better than two draws and going through on the away goals rule (3 pts vs 2).
Have to agree, losing to Ghent isn't disgraceful. Unlucky not to win by more than the single goal at home, managed to score away, and if it wasn't for some "dodgy" defending they could have progressed comfortably. Disappointing but not disgraceful.
They gave me red cheeks though when i had to face my fellow Belgian expat colleagues on Monday(I was the only one chosing Bohs' side)

A win gets 1 point and a draw 0.5 points so it's all the same.Originally Posted by crc
