Due to unplayable pitch.

It's not phrased too well-kinda like we found out by mistake.
Could we not play it at home as we definitely need a game.

Hope its a bit better phrased for you now , All i know is that the game has been cancelled no further details as yet.

They are probably too busy playing Bob the Builder in the Showgrounds, see what they can knock down next kind of thing. No time for playing football.

Defo think waterlogged pitch is a cover up as I heard a rumour that it was cancelled yesterday. No way would they have made a decision on the pitch that early

I think you're being a bit paranoid there. Our final game of last season was played in horrendous conditions and the pitch was left in a terrible state. It hasn't recovered yet and to play this game after another wet week would probably have done a lot more damage and may have endangered the Shels home game.

Rovers are playing in Dromard( or ballysadare) tomorrow against Harps( or it could be a local team.
Very vague I know but its on at about 3.

Losr 2-1. Started off very well and dominated for the first half but then Harps started to play a bit and came back into it. We went one up,Faz scored a tap in assisted by Hughes who started up front. Not sure who got Harps' first, Conor Gethins scored a pen to go ahead.

Arcaba
Peers, McKenzie, Vasas (spelling), Kelly
Turner, O'Grady, Kudozovic
Cretaro, Hughes, McCartney

There will be a report and reaction on the website

Assisted by the Harps goalkeeper more like. After Hughes went one on one with the keeper and hit a very lame shot only for the keeper to spill it and Faz to tap in.

Dont think Hughes is a striker tbh. Turner played well. Faz played well in the first half.

What's the story with Foy? Still injured ? And have we signed the Polish lad or not. Wasn't there so what's the verdict on Vasas. To me it looks like we're going to struggle to get goals. McKenzie isn't good enough to play centre of defence imo.

I can't understand how the season finished 3 months ago and we had a manager in place before the end of it and yet we haven't made enough signings. Any run of injuries and we're in trouble.

The decision to release McT and McNamara is coming back to haunt Rovers and it looks like the decision to get O'Grady back may well have been a face saving excercise.

Foy is dropped afaik. He has to win his spot back as Kelly has taken it. Bajdziak has signed yes. Vasas I thought did pretty well today. Great height for a defender and seems good enough in the air.

Funniest thing I heard today was Arcaba shouting at the other players, you could bearly hear what he was shouting, may aswell have been talking

**feo123** · 03/03/2007, 6:37 PM

he's not well in the head i hear, arcaba

McNamara was leaving the club either way and McTiernan was offered terms but decided to leave.

Didnt see all the game today but wasnt overly impressed with Badjak , good to see Chrissy Turner flying in with the tackles again. Vassas could be good as was mentioned. Still very short up front , where was Gino?
