Waterford replay

Saw a good few posters around today. Similar size to last one but way less attention grabbing. A4 ones doing the rounds too. Great to see them though

Season tickets arent valid so bigger queues anticipated...get there early in other words.

No way RT. Away yes, but at home, anything other than victory is poor.

looking forward to it, should be a handy win but you never know in cup football, you never know in irish football really. they got a point off us at home in the league, so it won't be easy this time either, their a big and physical enough side! are they full time? i think their manager said they were...i thought they were part time!
i'll go for 2-0 rovers, edgy first half but our class to show in the 2nd half and we'll pull away.....

rovers clean bill of health , like RT i'd say its gonna be tough and we will need to be full strength

**sligoman** · 20/08/2007, 8:51 AM

Should win. Waterford are muck but at the same time we can't let our guard down or they could sneak one. They'll probably be hoping for penalties.

Anyone know if it's golden goal in extra time or are both halves played?

RT, at home, we should be more than capable of beating them handily. Away to the RSC is tough, but at home, with them coming up on the day as well, i'll be shocked if we don't win.

There not AFAIK. Part time team, players need to get off work, all this came from the mouth of their chairman.

My sources....well AFAIK that's what their Chairman said, that they wouldn't be up for an overnight as their players are part time, and there not in a financial position to afford it really..

We've beaten them twice without any bother. Going on what I've seen of Waterford this season Sligo will win 3/4 nil if ye play your best.

**life long red** · 20/08/2007, 1:19 PM

i,ll put my house on it that rvs will beat waterford

rvs hammered cork 4-i

have to agree with RT wont be an easy victory at all, i would take a scrappy 1-0 win any day of the week.

**Red&White Rover** · 20/08/2007, 5:34 PM

In fairness that was Cookie's first game and things was very different...

Well on Tuesday preferably.

**sligoman** · 20/08/2007, 6:22 PM

Just after watching game again and Cronin said they're gonna travel up Monday night.

**red arrow** · 20/08/2007, 8:53 PM

make no mistake about it this is going to be another dogfight we will have to be at our best to win. fully focussed and up for it . this game is a one off a cup game all this talk about 3 nil and 4 nil wins is stupid. complacency from supporters can rub off on the players. we must support the team as if our lives depended on it . waterford have nothing to lose as i said before we are a better footballing side and we will get chances but we must take these chances. a lot of people are going to the game tomorrow night expecting a win. this can be dangerous as a complacent crowd wont rise the team and when things start going wrong they get on the teams back therefore it is imperative that we the supporters are very vocal supporting the bit o red. encourage them and they will deliver . make it a carnival atmosphere with flags etc. yee lads in the blue stand sing and shout exactly the way yee did against shams and bray. yee are the vital cog and the connection with the team. the crowd in the main stand are always expectant(i go there myself cause i have 2 young lads with me. i used to be a shed head years ago) so i know what its like to be passionate about the rovers. do the business lads. gather the troups and sing your hearts out for the lads. if we can win thiss game i see a great finish to the season. best of luck
