    Sligo Rovers 1:1 Dublin City

    Sligo Rovers 1:1 Dublin City

    What a great game of football, we played with passion and spirit and I think we could have snatched the win. Rovers had a full house but hardly made a sound, I was suprised how quiet so many people can be. Anyway not the win we wanted but we are still above Ramblers on goal difference.

    Thanks, but to be honest when we got to the ground we thought we were going to be silenced by the full house, but as I said already I could not believe how quite so many Sligo people could be. I would say that all in all I enjoye dmyself but I have a few complaints that I will start a thread about in the EL section. I would also like to add that Rovers would be a good edition to the Premier with such a following, although if you stay so quiet then I'm not so sure, maybe you were quiet because you did not expect us to play so well. If we had played with that amount of passion in all our games then who knows???.

    Near enough to you in the first half and then standing behind the Dublin goal in the second

    Was it in the first or second half when the incident happened?

    Second half, I heard the first comment which was bad but I could live with, the mouthpiece got a laugh from his pals and then there was no stopping it.

    2nd half...good to get the goal...both teams had chances but we were singing at the end..says alot...we really have to choke now to lose it...i pray it wont happen

    Wink Reds v Blues 1~1

    Still anybody's for the taking after this result... Rovers at home with a crowd like that should have beaten the best of them never mind the mighty Vikings.

    Havin said that ya could hear pins drop when we stopped for a breather. Think that was also the same times when the noice from my vibrating phone in my pocket was giving me a headache...
