Feast of football in 4 days

Don't know about the rest of you but I can't wait for the next few days.
Two big games, under lights, big crowds etc... It's a throw back to the good old days.
After all the crap about messing us around with gate reciepts etc we should all make the atmosphere as intimidating as possible for the "muck savages" from the north west.

They deserve nothing better - remember the last time we met in the cup?

As for Friday - I think if we were both bottom of the 1st Division there would still be an interest in this one.
The talk around my workplace is pointing at a hugh crowd for this one!!!!
Even people who havn't been for a few years are coming back for this one.

Harps and Rovers - welcome to hell and the southern San Siro!!!!

I hope we'll make Harps fans feel as welcome in Cork as they made us in Ballybofey. I don't think I've met nicer and more hospitable hosts on my travels in quite some time. Forget the shenanigans at board level.

This isn't about any messing off the pitch. We have too good a reputation to **** that up.

I'm talking about noise - and plenty off it to get behind the Team and frighten the bejasus out of the opposition.

Remember the deafening racket we made a few years ago when Pat's were in town for that telivised game on the Saturday?

I remember my ears ready to burst with the din we made in the Shed that day.

We've been critisized in the past few years for letting the atmosphere slide - we have a chance now to rectify that so let's just go and do it.

I also remember playing Harps in a league game a few years ago and on a wet Sunday we gave their keeper such a doing in the first half he dropped 2 corners in front of the Shed and we scored both times - anyone remember that?

Couldnt agree more, they treated us very well and we should treat them just as well. However lets hope those Mister Men go home really disappointed after recieving a thrashing at the hands of the HUGE club.

Lets create a great atmosphere tomorrow and Friday- Flags, scarves, confetti bring them all. Im off to rip up some newspapers now.

Well, I would have to complement the gang at the Bohs game. They never stopped all through the match, and if we could get the same enthusiasm from the whole ground tonight and on Friday, twould be heard in Tallaght.....
