The Model Club
Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
I have to say i am rooting for Rovers in this one !!
A hoop for a day !!![]()
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
Dublin City is a city, not a football club. In football terms, Dublin City = Home Farm (in a Carroll's plastic bag!!). Home Farm do indeed have a proud history, ...as an amateur club, who won the FAI Cup 30 years ago. They haven't come remotely close* to winning anything of any kind in senior football since then, not that they should be even playing senior football in the first place!!Originally Posted by Derek

Agreed. Bar Bohs, I would support anyone in a play-off against Home Farm. If we go down, there will be 11 Premier Division chairman sh-itting themselves at the prospect of gate receipts collapsing from hosting Home Farm next season. And if they're really unlucky, they might have to play them at home twice!Originally Posted by Peadar

Home Farm getting promoted, would ruin a great LOI season. It's up to us to ensure it doesn't happen.
*1st Division, and Leinster Senior/League Cup titles, do not count.
if you win you deserve to stay up, if you don't win you don't deserve to stay up, learn to live with it. You don't have a divine right to a place in premier division.![]()
Personally i couldnt give a flying f**k who tags along to support ICBINHF tonight and friday, if it was anyone else playing them i certainly wouldnt be bothered 'supporting' them or indeed any other team!! I support one team at the end of the day & one team only!
From another perspective though i hope loads of neutrals turn up tonight, their cash will be more than welcome!!
Ona more serious note I have to say I agree with a couple of the posts above, whoever wins over the two games deserves to be in the premier division, end of!! History (or lack therof) is irrelevant, as much as i dislike ICBINHF i can honestly say i dont have anything like as big a problem with them as i have with Bohs or Pats, all this ****e about them not deserving to be in the league is nonsense, they're here now & thats that, get over it & let them get on with it, if they beat us i'll have a reason for disliking them but thats as far as it goes! Thats football! People can whinge about how they came about and how new a club they are & whatever title they use but the simple fact is for whatever reasons they are good enough to be playing us this week & we have to deal with it, like it or not! The sooner the rest of the league accepts it the better!
May the best team win, & if thats not us well may the second best team win!![]()

Thomas Davis have said they will be the last man standing, they were WRONG!!
SRFC will NEVER die!!
100% agree.Originally Posted by Peadar
COME ON ROVERS.
Nothing personal against DCFC, or their few loyal fans, but DCFC have no ground, no support, and would bring absolutely nothing to the Premier division.
This league needs to have teams and clubs that have something to build on, and DCFC have shown that they are unable to attract any support of real consquence so far.
Rovers, $hels, SPA and Bohs all have the potential to attract/get back significant support, even UCD have a ground and a following, but DCFC are a nothing club, and until thy can show themselves to be something more substantial, I would prefer to see them in the 1st division.
If they beat Rovers they will have earned their place, but I hope that won't happen.
Up the Hoops!![]()
Who gives you the right to say who are a "nothing team"??
The whole "$hels" thing is getting childish at this stage, not to mention the fact that it makes no sense
Awww, a lickle tantrum from a little $hels fan, whatever next?Originally Posted by sfc red

That should read anyone that cares about the premier division should get out and support Rovers. The best thing for football in this country is for Rovers to lose and go down. That way all the First Division clubs will benefit from the massive crowds they bring all over the place with them.Originally Posted by Peadar

Patsh, last time I checked Rovers didn't have a ground either, so where's your point???
LFC in Exile has got a point, it really would help to enhance the media attention on the 1st Division and would indeed boost attendences as Rovers have great traveling support, every week, :P
But realisticly, does anyone see CHF beating Rovers? It would be a bit of a shock to say the least, wouldn't it???
Sitting pretty!!!
I hope Rovers absolutely hammer Dublin City.
Scumbag Seery's pathetic little franchise has no place in this league.
Champions!

If ya say we bring nothin to the Premier League & don't deserve to be in it coz we've nothin to build on.. how we gonna build on anythin if we don't start & have a chance?? Ya mentioned that we haven't been able to 'attract significant support so far'... SO FAR bein the key words.. so that's a bit promisin...Originally Posted by patsh

I am disappointed in people's attitude towards Dublin City. I can understand Seery has rubbed some people up the wrong way, particularly Cork fans however you must admire his drive and energy to push his club forward. City have existed what, 4 seasons now? They've pushed for promotion in their 3 years in the 1st division and tried to make a fist of it in the Premier. Yes they're built on the template of Home Farm but all joking and banter aside they are not Home Farm. It's like insisting Airdre United are in fact Clydebank or MK Dons and Wimbledon FC. It's a new entity with a new identity. DCFC are a different club who certainly have different ambitions to Home Farm. Surely to have a new, vibrant and innovative club is what we want in this league? As DCFC fans say ad nauseum, how many fans are they going to have starting from scratch? People point out that they're just another Dublin club cramming into an overcrowded market. Monaghan, Kilkenny and Kildare aren't Dublin clubs and their attendences are similarly poor. Kildare themselves are equally as much a franchise as Dub City and they get no hassle. We often berate the Irish public for showing an apathy to our league yet clubs like UCD and DCFC get slagged for having the temerity to have people who actually care about the clubs and have a passion for them.
