Stu, can you remember the last time Rovers played well against UCD?
How in the name of Jaysus are Sligo fifth in the table? Delighted to see a promoted regional side do so well like, but you've been muck the three times against us and I just don't understand it at all?!?!

Even if the sea ceases to flow

The name of Sligo Rovers will shine and shine forever like the morning star glittering in the sky."
There was maybe 50 Rovers fans so no one was gonna shout at Sean. It was one terrible game,Faz hit the bar early on and i dont think UCD keeper had a save to make for the rest. None of the back 4 who started against derry were playing so we were always gonna struggle at the back and there was a lot of mistakes. Started with one up front, presumably so the 5 in midfield could help the inexperienced back 4 but as always when we play one up front it doesnt go to well. Yet another loss to UCD and we deserved nothing less. There was no sign of Sean to appear out during the warm up but he did appear for the game!
"he tries his best.... but I was a proper player".
Nope. That's seven wins in a row for us against youz. I think that equals our record winning streak against anyone, along with our current streak against Limerick. Couldn't even beat Monaghan or Kilkenny seven times in a row. Really wierd!Seems to be part of a longstanding club tradition.
Edit - I tell a lie. We've beaten Monaghan, Kilkenny and Limerick seven times in a row. All those runs were ended in 2004 though.

Was pretty poor stuff indeed and bitterly cold. One of those games that you were just willing for the ref to blow for full time.
As mentioned above, Rovers only had one decent chance - when Faz hit the bar.
Not too many fans down as it. We were on the opposite side to Connor and he didn`t come near us. A few were at the fence on the far side when he was heading back into the changing rooms, but not too sure what sort of reception they gave him.
That was me and Red&White Rover at the fence we just shook hands with him at the end
faz, singh, foy were poor. coleman was a bit nervy lookin but did ok. choice and mansaram were poor mctiernan was probably our best player
we were on top for 1st 20 mins or so and had half chances but nothin more
