Dublin City claim play-off spot
Dublin City claim play-off spot

Roddy Collins will have to plan for a play-off with former club Dublin City as he bids to ensure that Shamrock Rovers remain in the eircom Premier Division
Dublin City claimed a promotion play-off spot as they overcame Athlone by 3-1 at Golden Island Park this evening.
Robbie Hederman put the side from the capital a goal in front after sixteen minutes. David Freeman added another just after half-time before Austin Skelly grabbed one back for Athlone with just six minutes remaining in normal time.
Derek Pender put the result beyond doubt three minutes later to set up a play-off with Shamrock Rovers to see who will play in the eircom Premier division next year.
Roddy Collins will now take his Shamrock Rovers side to face the club he left in acrimonious circumstances before the end of last season.http://www.rte.ie/sport/2005/1119/dublincity.html

Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Sweet! These games are gonna be fantastic!
God
Roy Keane to sign an exclusive 2 match deal with DCFC for the play-offs?
We could have a whipround for it - 300 of us paying €100 each - €30,000 - nice little bonus for Roy
Kom Igen, FCK...
i'll go for that
Dublin City fans,what songs do youse sing,i'll practise them before the games
when the rod rod roody , goes bob bob bobing along.......
Where's your Roddy gone, wheres your Roddy gone.........far far away( we hope)
Presumably RTE have forgotten all the previous news reports about Alan O'Neill and Noel Synott being in charge of the first team matters??Originally Posted by Ringo

you couldnt write the script yourself
Not really, did Rovers not suspend Roddy for a week, and according to reports that week is up this weekend. So is he not back in charge for Tuesday?
I was just about to start a thread asking that question - anyone able to confirm if he'll be in charge on tuesday?
DAN CONNOR HATES CITY, HE HATES LANGERS
Yeah, we'll really be offended by that one
If you actually had enough fans to get the chant going we would, in all likelyhood, happily join in!
As for his so-called one week's suspension - what kind of planet are RTE on with that rubbish?
Ireland: Discovered!
follow the sequence yourself:I was just about to start a thread asking that question - anyone able to confirm if he'll be in charge on tuesday?
a written warning, a final written warning, then suspension pending inquiry.
this is often followed by dismissal.
just crossing the t's and dotting the i's so the case is legally watertight i would assume.
you dont seriously expect to see shoddy in a rovers dugout ever again do you?
so what will the CHF fans whine about now he is gone? imagine being idiotic enough to think we would somehow be offended by a song about roddy being gone?
I know the build-up to these matches started over a year ago. But it's a shame Rovers fans are dissappointed that the opposition don't see songs that insult them.
Its almost like hoops fans are annoyed they are not ridiculed.
Rovers fans seem to be very aware of dismissals, no doubt through their own employment history. ( no I don't believe all the rovers posters are employers).
It important to remind SRFC that Constructive dismissal is not the same as dismissal in the Construction industry.
" I'll go right up to here,
it can't possibly hurt.
All they will find is my
beer and my shirt."
Eh, they did themselves the favour by beating Cobh. They beat Athlone 3-1 so your result with Cobh didn't matter to Dublin CityLike i promised Cobh wouldn't beat us, good luck in the play-offs now, we did you the favour now its all up to you
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
As for Tuesday/Friday all of our songs are fairly easy to pick up, and we'll all be doing our best to sing our hearts out for the lads, they deserve it. We don't have anti-Rovers or anti-any other team songs/chants. We haven't been around long enough to become that bitter (yet) And any anti-Roddy chants will be just that, anti-Roddy full stop.
Hope both games are competitive and keenly fought, I'm sure they will be, and I hope that people will come out to watch the drama unfold.
C'mon City and Up the Dubs!
I might venture up for the game on friday night and i know i will be shouting for rovers i can tell ya.
No disrespect to CHF but they just dont do it for the league like what rovers do!
Good man Mental Man!
C'mon the ROVERS!!!
What's done is done... as ya say & can't now be undone. Remember this though, Roddy in charge (past) was bout 60% the reason why ya's are playin us... ya think?follow the sequence yourself:
a written warning, a final written warning, then suspension pending inquiry.

Well the rovers supporters obviously dont want it - so guaranteed he wont be in charge for the play off matches, yeah??
So whats the official line on it? Will they increase the suspension, sack him, etc or what?
Agree with ye though - just looking for the official line on it!!
