Well done..

crackin result Sligeach fair play.

great game tonight, again the team showed great spirit after losing an early goal to come back and perform the way they did. jusge and faz turned the game on its head, fantastic control and threw ball from judge for the first, good coolness in the box from faz, and for the 2nd great turn and shot from judge. o'grady was brilliant in the middle, coleman excellent again. shouldn't really single many out though.
well done lads, and all supporters again, great to see the rovers having such a good support on the road again.
hope the keeper will be okay!!

You deserved your win as you were the best side on the night, best of luck in future rounds of the FAI Cup and fair play for applauding Barry Murphy.

Any word on Murphy?

Fantastic result. Bring on the Bohs.

**Midgit** · 17/06/2007, 11:13 AM

Brilliant atmosphere from us all throughout. We never stopped singing and we really were the 12th man........ fair play to all!

**sligoman** · 17/06/2007, 11:27 AM

Great performance. Hope Murphy is ok for them, looked pretty serious neck injury. Thoroughly deserved the win. Despite been under pressure for last 10 minutes or so, we dominated the game really.

Any photos or videos from last nights game? Great atmosphere it's like the old days the last two games

Ragin i missed this, but oh well....its hard to explain to all the gah-heads why Rovers beating shams is so much more important than Dublin meath!

C'mon the bitored!

Fantastic display. Everybody gave 100% + and you can not ask for more than that.

Delighted to see Faz getting MOTM - well deserved.

The Rovers crowd were were worth an extra man. I have rarely seen them as supportive and they never faultered even when we went a goal down.

Baz has no serious damage and will be back in 3 weeks, according to Scully.

Unfortunately, that's not long enough to keep out Galway next week.

I wouldn't say we dominated, Sligoman, I thought possession was 50/50. Shams didn't trouble Brush too much though.

Great result and great to see Fahrudin putting in such a game. Great atmosphere there aswell.

Chant of the match!!!

"Millstreet's fully of horses" to him was hilarious

Definitely the worst attendance I have ever witnessed at a Shams- Rovers cup game and I have seen all the ties since 1983. It was a great win last night and fully deserved.
