Flash missed a few chances but scored the winner so he is the hero again tonight.
Foy set up Hughes for the first after winning a tackle on the left.
Before the match Sean Connor was talking to some of the fans and was delighted with them coming.
Foyzer 4 Ireland was on show and foy got a good laugh out of it.
BTW,i wasnt there.....but did have a few € on us so happy days.
How many sligo fans travelled down,roughly?
No Comment.
well wild rover had a bus with about 15, he said at the match his crowd were one side and about 20 others,including shedheads who were behind one of the goals.
so 35,and there was probably a few in other places.say 40.
he said there was feck all bray fans there aswell.
BTW,he only decided to run a bus last night so he did well.
Fare-play,bray on a tuesday isn't nice!

3 pts... lads, i mansaram is a ledge. single handedly earning us 4 pts in less than a week
Got one of the scorers right anyway!.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
i changed my prediction to 2-1 yesterday,need them points.
How did we line out?
usual defense with foy back....usual midfield with turner back in midfield
o hara got what seemed to be a very serious injury,,,he was really brave trying to get the ball and got injured in the right leg..he tried to get up after about 3 mins on the ground but couldnt walk....strectchered off and in a lot of pain...think dick brush could be getting a run in the team....he made a really good save when he came on and could do nothing for the goal
1st half we played well in part but wes charles had flash as his bitch....flash couldnt get the better of him all night and he and judge missed loads of chances until flash final got by charles and scuffed in the winner...
for the 1st goal foy was legendary as per usual...he and his opponent were on the ground for about 8 seconds trying to dig the ball out...and foy won the battle of strength and put a class ball in for hughes....
their goal was pour on our part...brush called for the ball to collect but michael mc headed it and bray put a few passes together and scored....i really couldnt see us scoring another
players gave us a great reception at the end and it was another great display of determination.....
best players were turner and hughes...and when faz had the ball he did very well....harpel singh come on in the 90th min and did well in the 6mins he played up front!chased down and kept the ball in their half.....bring on cork!
Bray Wanderers 1 Sligo Rovers 2
Georgescu 82 Hughes 58
Mansaram 87
Sligo Rovers made it six wins in their last seven Premier Division games in the eircom League when a dramatic 87th minute winner from striker Darren Mansaram gave them a deserved victory over struggling Bray Wanderers at the Carlisle Grounds.
Mansaram produced an encore of Friday night's 89th minute winner against Waterford United when Sligo also won 2-1 at the RSC. Now it is all set up for the visit of champions Cork City before a bumper crowd at the Showgrounds on Saturday.
Bray 'keeper Chris O'Connor came to the rescue for the Seagulls on 17 minutes when he brilliantly pushed wide a rocket shot from striker Matt Judge after midfielder Chris Turner created the opening.
Little had been seen of Bray as an attacking force but they suddenly came to life on 21 minutes when a cross by Paul Caffrey on the right allowed Robbie Doyle to get in a close range effort gathered by 'keeper John O'Hara at the second attempt..
Whatever it was that manager Sean Connor said to his players at half-time it seemed to have an immediate effect with Sligo stepping up the pace at the start of the second half.
Mansaram, always a threat to the Bray defence, had one great run down the left and produced a perfect ball for fellow striker Matt Judge only to see his effort blocked by defender William Tyrell.
All that pressure was bound to tell with Sligo grabbing the lead on 58 minutes when Keith Foy battled through challenges from Stephen Gifford and Wes Charles on the left to cross for Adam Hughes to fire home at the far post for his third goal of the season.
But Bray were level on 82 minutes. Substitute Kieran 'Tarzan' O' Brien set up the chance for Andrei Georgescu and he raced past Hughes on the left before sweeping the ball past from O'Connor from 12 yards.
But Sligo were to have the final say with just three minutes remaining when Keith Foy and Judge created the opening for Mansaram and, showing perfect control, the striker was able to tuck the ball home from 12 yards into the corner of the net and seal a deserved victory.
Bray Wanderers: O'Connor; Gifford (Vint 68), Charles, McGovern, W.Tyrell (D.Tyrell 89); Caffrey, Tresson, Fox, Keogh (O'Brien 81); Doyle , Georgescu.
Sligo Rovers: O'Hara (Brush 70), Peers, McNamara, Burns, Foy; Hughes, O'Grady, Turner, Kudozovic; Mansaram, Judge (Singh 90).
Referee: Mr. P. Whelan (Dublin).
Yep agreed on the 40ish Sligo fans, but he had a gate inexcess of 800/900 last night, so not the worst home crowd by a long way considering it was a tuesday night and that it was'nt one of the so called big clubs.....
not one of the big teams?give it time.
ah no,900 wouldnt be too bad considering a tuesday and yer league position
Excellent turnout of Rovers fans at least a third if not half of the crowd were rovers fans not sure about 800/900 would of thought 500 total attendance , as per usual a lot of rovers fans scattered all over the place not a lot wearing colours myself included but I would of recognised a lot of faces , at least 200 rovers fans there including a lot of Dublin based fans , when the rovers goals were scored a lot of people were celebrating in the seats.
63.00
FACT - There was no were near 200 Sligo fans there last night, not by a long shot, but there was a bunch of scumbag dubs there who seemed like they were supporting Sligo ! very strange indeed.....
And yes the crowd was inexcess of 800
