Season kick off?

**sligoman** · 18/12/2005, 11:00 PM

Who do ye want to get for the first game of the new season? I'd love a home game against Cork, Derry or Shels

.

Worst one, for me, would be home/away to the Dubs

.

Anyway, as long as we're at home first, I dont really mind.

Home tie with Cork would be great

Also wouldnt mind home to Longford

**Redtop** · 19/12/2005, 5:05 PM

home vs dublin

**feo123** · 19/12/2005, 5:07 PM

home Vs. Dublin City.......the easiest out of the lot(probably)

**gustavo** · 19/12/2005, 5:53 PM

ah no lads , no disrespect to Dublin City but we need one of the bigger teams of the division first so we can start the season off with a big crowd and hopefully build on that momentum

**The Stars** · 19/12/2005, 6:04 PM

Away to Longford.....

**redrov2005** · 19/12/2005, 6:06 PM

Agree with Gus ! Ye need a big home one to get the floaters along.

I'd be happy with home to any of the following-Cork,Derry,Shels or Bohs.

And a win would be great !

it'd be good to get a big name at home but i'd far rather points on the board. preferably some1 from dub city, bray or longford. no fans, no pressure hopefully

It's getting close now lads, next Monday the fixtures are out

. It's so exciting

.

**Rory H** · 09/02/2006, 12:01 PM

bray away is my prediction

**sligoman** · 09/02/2006, 12:02 PM

I hope we get Longford away, cos that'll be handy to get to for me

.

**Rory H** · 09/02/2006, 12:04 PM

that would be sweet alright

**The Stars** · 09/02/2006, 4:48 PM

home to Shels or Drogheda.

**Red4Eva** · 10/02/2006, 2:54 PM

i guessed last year's 1st fixture right but i can't make who i want 1st this year.hopefully it's a crowd puller that we could possibly win, bohs perhaps.wud lov it if longford was our 1st away game, guaranteed a huge travelling support&hopefully ppl will get a taste for the away games then

**Rovers1** · 10/02/2006, 8:09 PM

im always way more interested in the last 7-8 games,see who we might win the league against...i can always dream!!

**marktis** · 12/02/2006, 3:26 AM

To be honest, i could not care as long sa rovers give a good account of themselves in the premier division

Handy from your new leitrim home base

**red_away** · 13/02/2006, 12:39 PM

I think the first few games will be vital in the premiership - If the BOR can get a few good results together in fron of hopefully larger crowds the bandwagon might start to roll or inversely start badly and the crowds will drop off and people will start to be negative about the reds - the sligo public is a fickle master as we have witnessed - they love a winner!!! so I dont understand why they still follow the gaelic team as that would be tough going!
