Think back now about what Rico ACTUALLY said.

**higgins** · 03/07/2006, 3:15 PM

**higgins** · 03/07/2006, 3:21 PM

Kinda out of context now though isn't .... and you're still saying its true .... and you are avoiding the point about what Rico actually said, but sure who's worried higgins ... not you anyway obviously.

Something along the lines of being ridden rock solid was it

ok ok way before that ....

Probably just before the riding bagan around the time Dublin was feeling you up maybe

He went high and mighty and said it was a form of cheating did he not?

EDIT!!!
Give us a chance A Face!

Thats what i'm on about ... did you misinterpret what he was saying ??

During his last stint with us he questioned why monaghan were in the league. After friday I echo his sentiments.........

I dont think so ?

Was he not saying it clubs were spending money they dont have and ruining the well run clubs like Cork from competing on a level playing field ?

seems Shels were not the only ones going around with "Historic" debt !

How is that having a go .... that is blantantly obvious. Thats an observation, not having a go. And if i recall he was referred to that point while being interviewed, its not like he was having a pop off Shels, infact (i could be wrong here) did he even mention Shels in that interview??

Well we wont be the last anyway .... RC are out for a few more clubs in the league now aswell. We have Rovers to thank for that ....... genuinely, it had to be call ashore sometime and Rovers ~~club~~ fans were instrumental in doing that.

For as long as i have been supporting this league, fans have always said that that is where we need to be (properly run clubs, paying tax etc.) .... we might be getting to a stage where that might be the case.

Controversy is a sign of greatness. Proves the point you should be in junior football.

Controversy is a sign of greatness.

That makes Roddy Collins, Ronan Seery and Ollie Byrne all true greats so....

Honestly dont think anyone would notice if you had. No away fans, shirt sponsors from Dublin which wasnt even on some of your jersies, no chance of competing ever. What's the point? As mentioned junior ball or the new A league is where you belong along with CHF.

forgive me if i dont take advice from a club who ran headlong into s**T and no hope on horizan , get you infrastructure right first then chase the glory,

It is not so long that this team with no chance of competing, managed to gain promotion to the top-tier i.e one above the league Rovers currently find themselves in.

I dont think so. I asked what's the point and its turned into a typical slagging match.

Yes they got promoted but their fan base did not increase when they did. Like CHF if you have no fans you shouldnt be in the league. If the new league proposals excludes these 2 clubs I'm all for it. We've got to stop kidding ourselves here. These clubs have no future in the league and would be better served in junior ball.
