Danny O'Connor sent off tonight, suspended for this game.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Yeah I Fancy a win for us and I expect a big crowd for our Dublin rivals btw anyone know the score from tonight in st pats vs shams My TV reception is bad and so is the PC (sort of) and I can't get the score, also i know this is off topic but do those red and black balloons and posters got anything to do with the match because they say theres an invasion onMarch the 3rd and maybe its a little fun thing meaning theres a load of shams fans coming up

This Week on Foot.ie - Sligo Rovers v Shamrock Rovers
Featuring:
MIDWEEK
* Shams fan surfaces on Sligo section - "You're not our rivals. We don't care about small clubs like you."
* Young Bit o' Red fan responds with volley of mis-spelt abuse
* Spotting potential weakness, Shams fan uses his other login - "You're named after us."
* Sligo tyro fires back - "I know for an absolute fact that's wrong. I think I read it somewhere once".
* Shams fan, enjoying exchange, inserts dig including the words "check" , "history" and "sonny". Takes mild, condescending offence at word "Shams", claiming it's only used in Sligo, despite it being common in Cork, Athlone and various other spots.
TOWARD THE WEEKEND
*Don't miss this week's Sun, with special extended whinge from Scully. Key points will include the words "fair play from refs", "terrible pitch", "physical" and "young players . . . bullied down there last season".
* Sun hack loses tape of interview. When found, it's played backwards to reveal strange hidden messages "apenaltywouldbenoharmref" and "godImbuggeredifweloseagain".
MATCHDAY
* Dublin referee gives Shams penalty, sends off Danny Ventre for having put a brick in his handbag before wading into 22-player row.
* Scully responds to Shams' 2-1 loss - "We played all the football. They never threatened. We deserved to win that game. We got no breaks. We ............" Confused RTE technician checks to see if he's got last year's tapes in by accident.
"Even if the wind stops to blow
Even if the sea ceases to flow
Even if the sun ceases to rise
The name of Sligo Rovers will shine and shine forever like the morning star glittering in the sky."
Great post there, you should include a section for what'll happen here next week. A highly charged keyboard warrior debate about who's fans were louder, how many Shams fans were actually here and how many people were at the game in total. There will also be some minor incident (bit of banter between fans) blown way out of proportion. . . .
"he tries his best.... but I was a proper player".
POTM
I would have, but I was busy listening to the Sun tape again. Interestingly, the bit where Scully says "I hope the ref has the courage to protect our young lads", played backwards, sounds something like "Jaysusyou'renotthinkingofgivingmyjobtoSeanConnor? "
"Even if the wind stops to blow
Even if the sea ceases to flow
Even if the sun ceases to rise
The name of Sligo Rovers will shine and shine forever like the morning star glittering in the sky."
For the older generation maybe,
as for the fans I know, a total exageration.
Don'y judge people by there age to know that Shamrock Rovers are like our old Firm not just the "older fans" would know that there somewhat of a rival to us
Coleman for Ireland
sorry I was typing fastwhat I mean is people believe that only older fans would know that Shamrock Rovers would be dublin rivals for us but im a younger fan and i know well that Shamrock Rovers are our rivals so don't say that all the younger fans wouldn't think this is a big match for us
Coleman for Ireland

WHATS Haul ? (Never heard the wordGood man. You're obviously in for the long haul.
