Relegation run-in

Shamrock Rovers Vs. Cobh Ramblers

**Da Real Rover** · 05/11/2005, 1:12 PM

I wouldnt be surprised if Cobh bet Shams as cobh are on a roll and shams are the opposite.

Rovers aren't in the playoffs just yet.

We have to play tonight - if we win, we will go within two points of them and they have Cork on Monday.

Three points tonight is a must and if we get them then it could go right down to the last game.

3) keep thinking that. there is no dangeer whatsoever of him getting a new/better offer from rovers. absolutley none whatsoever.
if a multi-millionaire wants to build you a stadium and put millions into the club, you will say no because roddy is involved?!? get real. the story ISNT coming from rod for once. be sure, mileson means business

1) Roddy won one double has has been in relegation trouble every other season of his managerial career. Oh, and he's a c*nt.
2) Agree, but someone on the Ultras forum was saying that he was actually banned from communicating with the bench last night, so I guess we'll have to lay the blame for the poor subs on Terry.
3) Personally, I don't think the Mileson to Pat's story will happen, but Roddy is trying.

UCD tonight, Drogheda away next weekend who are hopefully completely engrossed in being in the cup final and Bray at home. Realistically we need 9 points from these games. Drogs will be the tough one as we should beat UCD and Bray at home.

Rovers have Cork, Waterford and UCD.

**sligoman** · 05/11/2005, 1:41 PM

Realistically, I can see Harps getting 6, maybe 7 points out of those. While I can only see Shams getting 3 at most, so maybe ye'll manage the play-off

**fbtn** · 05/11/2005, 3:58 PM

I'd take the playoffs with both hands at this stage!

How the fuc-k do you see that... Don't know what UCD have done to you's but we've already beaten you lads twice!

Yeah, with Charles and Zayed. You've hardly won a game a since they left.

If we have to beat you to stay up, we will. Bray don't worry me at all.

**Dodge** · 05/11/2005, 5:54 PM

Bray are safe and have nothing to play for. Harps fighting for their lives... I'd back Haros

**pineapple stu** · 06/11/2005, 6:01 PM

UCD are all but mathematically safe now...Rovers and Waterford can both catch us, but because they've to play each other, it'd take a remarkable run of results for both to catch us.

Rovers v. Waterford on Friday should decide all. I still reckon that the Premier Division team will win as the First Division teams - Dublin City and Cobh - don't seem to be anything special and neither is on a particularly good run at the moment. They're just slightly better than the rest of the league, but not good enough for the Premier, I think.
