And we are back !!
Shels and Derry look strong and Jarvis is a real boost for Shels so we may have an exciting season ahead.
Decent test for Shels first up in Waterford.
Galway Drogs is a chance for one of them to get a decent start in a season where they both might struggle although Drogs are turning into a side that surprises.
Rovers should be looking to put a strong marker down agaisnt Dundalk, we cant afford to have a slow start this year with the strenghening of Shels and Derry.
Bohs v Pats is also going to be an interesting one, no real idea what to expect, will Pats be as bad as their supporters think? will bohs be a top half side and chalenging??

Must be a few question marks over pitch playability with the amount of rain in Tallaght. Would imagine Waterford could be in danger too. Hopefully the rest of the evening and tomorrow are not as bad as the warning suggests.

The pitch in Tallaght didn’t look great last week and all this rain won’t help. Any idea from Rovers supporters if this game could be called off? I’d guess with it being the opening night and it being on Virgin that they’ll try to keep it on.

Id say it will be touch and go depending (obviously) on the amoung of rain.
Be dissapointing if its cancelled after waiting so long for the season to start.
K assume the Aviva will ne good to go


Hearing there is an inspection at lunchtime tommorow.
