    the curse of rico

    I think the curse of Rico is about to strike soon!Rico doesnt do championships
    If Shels win there two games in hand and beat Cork the smell
    of **** coming from Rico will be wafting all the way to Dublin!
    Am i the only on that thinks Cork will bottle it?

    On the contrary, Roddy doesn't. He jumps ship before it happens.

    fair point, I'm sure Rovers will find someone to go down with the ship though

    I think its funny the way some Rovers fans have got all cocky again now that club saved from collapse.

    After losing so many players the Rovers team doesn't strike fear into any side now:

    Shamrock Rovers: Murphy, Sweetman, Shelly, McDonnell, Doyle, O’Connor (Roche, 50), Kenny, McDonagh, Rutherford, Manley (Sheridan, 59), Molloy.

    To be fair, with Murphy in goal you're always gonna have a chance!

    I'm hoping the orignal post reigns supreme, but I'm not gonna tempt fate with it!

    eh, we lost 3!
    one of whom we were delighted to see the back of, one a young striker and one a winger we will miss, but if you are going to lose someone, let it be a wide man. the spine of the team remains the same. selly in for gavin (big improvement), manly/sherro in for mooney (no real change) and o'connor in for mccourt (not an improvment, not o'c was mom in bray)

    and we were always cocky.

    I thought you lost Gough, Gavin, Mooney, McCourt from a thin enough squad already.

    To be honest, I don't think that there is any possibility of Rovers going down. I would love to see it happening, but it won't.

    As for Rico, he may well feel the pressure. I think one of two things will happen to Shelbourne, they will either fall apart or laucnh a spectacular run of form. I don't see any in-between for them. If it is the latter, then Cork will feel the pressure, and the league is never won at Christmas (or in Summer Soccer terms July!).

    forgot gough, easily done.... not a footballing loss, beach will more than compensate in set pieces.

    only mccourt is missed. gavin was on huge bucks, happy he is off the wage bill and shelly has been solid and composed. mooney never lived up to initial promise, and is already pining to come back!

    the team has a better balance now believe it or not.

    Yes probably. Cork will win it. They are the best side by far this season. Shels will rally - may finish 2nd. Rovers will escape relegation and the playoffs too.

    I don't think we will bottle it, but a combination of
    a few suspensions for crucial games,
    tiredness (some of players looked exhausted the other night) especially for the big games around our European travels,
    and our current drop in form,
    may be costly.

    Derry are looking extremely good at this point in time, I'd be worried that they could just get the better of us.
    Big pub are out of contention, I think, after Saturday night, so only 3 teams realistically left in it.
    If we suffer a collapse in form, we could be looking at third...

    If Shels and Derry both beat Cork it will be very very difficult to call. Those are the two biggest games of the season so far.

    I've a feeling it'll goto the last day and Cork will win, karma for Rico.

    As Kevin Keegan would say, "I would love it" if Bohemians beat Shelbourne on the last day of the season to give Cork the title. I would love it.

    So would I

    Anyway, if anyone knows how to stop Shels winning the league its Rico
    As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.
