QuoteThe busses dont run to often when rovers fans finish work. Most only hang up their crowbar and gloves at 4amOriginally Posted by GavinZac
we've sent one or two buses to every regular game, including the ones up north. i would wager we've done the most traveling this year, actually. its all well and good when your bus is going across town after work
you dont mind waiting in the bus then? thanks
We obviously don't run buses to games across town
I'd be surprised if you've brought more fans than us to any away game this season. You had very few against us in Tolka and I'm sure quite a few who were there live in Dublin.
I've regularly gone to watch other clubs play in european games over the years so a chance to go to a game and have a few beers with lads who looked after us is hardly sinister. I'm sure any reasonable City fan would welcome the extre revenue.

In fairness Rovers would usually have the biggest away support at the cross especially when you consider league position.Pity ye cant fill a bus for your own away games
Sad
ehh, Pete, I think you'll find that this is foot.ie and nobody cares about fairness. Or facts. Or logic.
If Cork do get through to Utrecht when would that be on? Might base a holiday round that. Obviously they'd have to get through the next round first. Utrecht is a beautiful city
These days its gotten so bad that Rovers are the only team that bring any decent support to Cork
Few years ago we beat Nijmagen in the intertoto, Utrecht would be quite similar but we need to play 100% to get pasted Hammerby first
Oh no not them again
I think all the three Inter Toto rounds are succesive weekends so we would be playing Utrecht on the weekends of 22nd & 29th July
I'm what? I'm ants at a picnic?
Last qualifying round of the UEFa Cup I think
I'm what? I'm ants at a picnic?
That is correct. Not sure if we would be home or away first though...
I think we'd be at home first and the away leg would be the 29th.
I don't see any problem with a few Rovers lads coming down on Saturday.
I'm sure they'll all be on their best behaviour
Do these Hammarby contingent consist of any female members?

Known as the Hammarshes
anyone know if this round is on TV?
It won't be.
And here was I thinking that Irish fans supported Irish teams in EuropeBus full of Rovers and Hammarby coming from Dublin.

Don't know where you got that from. Why would I support our rivals in Europe? Typical Irish minnowism.And here was I thinking that Irish fans supported Irish teams in Europe

And would that typical Irish minnowism include fans of a Dublin club coming down to Cork on a Saturday night to support a swedish team in the inter two bob cup?
Cork City FC
If certain Rovers' fans want to support Hammarby that's their business.
As for the match itself, I expect Cork to record a comfortable victory.
.........as opposed to supporting random European teams who play in green?
Eh? I've watched and supported plenty of sides in Europe and only one wears green and that was hardly 'random'.

Whats your point? That Football fans are parochial about their own team! Shock horror. That Rovers supporters are somehow the cosmopolitan darlings of the football world? What? That Rovers are the only set of fans that have links with supporters from abroad?
Now lets get back to your original comment on typical Irish minnowism and does this include fans from Rovers travelling down to Cork on a Saturday night to support a Swedish team in Europe?
