    Things are bad when we're wondering when Judge will be back.
    Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.

    Don't underestimate Longford. I saw them against Pats and they were away better than Galway. Mooney up front is very useful and Rutherford still has a lot to offer but the centre of their defence is poor, especially on stuff coming from the wings - if we had a striker to get on the end of anything.

    no real cutting edge. never looked like scoring really. derry never created an awful lot either though! turner again was excellent, jamie done well i thought too! ogrady worked hard, his passing needs improvement though. manson looked ok on the ball, will take time to setlle fully, dont get on his back yet, id say he's the type that would go under if he started gettin stick! Faz done well at times, raf gave his usual display never gave up. choic and coleman done well when they came on also! just lacked something in the final third, cant fault them for commitment though

    Can`t believe nobody has mentioned the impact of the pitch on the game?

    New or otherwise it is an absolute joke & verged on being dangerous.

    Impossible to play the ball at pace on the deck.

    I counted the blocks of seating derry filled in the jinks avenue and id say it was nearly half full with 10 fellas down the railway end. Id say 350-400 wer down.

    Derry were far better, no comparison. We never once looked like we would score, nothing up front but still the lads gave alot of effort and did their best out there against 1 of the favourites for the league.

    the only thing about Turner is he tends to want to play too much football in defensive positions, he got caught once to twice agains Derry but it has been happening last season. Guess thats what you get for putting a midfielder in the full back position.
    I would prefer to see him in the midfield with Connor.

    yea Coleman should start left back. He looks like he could be a fantastic attacking left full for the future. Saw him against UCD in Belfield last season and was impressed by he looked great thudder day. It would allow Turner back into midfield with Conor. If Conor is suspended for Longford, Coleman will have to start. All things considered I was pleased with the performace on Satuday. Pictch is SHOCKING tho . How could it possibly be so bad!!!!!

    If the attendances go down we should up sticks and play in McSharry, at least the players will have an oppertunity to play football on a prober surface.
