    The thing is skstu, this neo-anti-anybody-not-in-the EL Family stuff gets boring after a while. I am not anti EL at all, in fact I'd love to see it doing well. So lose that fast.

    stu, I meant because of his experience in Europe, maybe thats why he is so conservative, given he knows that 100% concentration and the rate with which errors are pounced upon he feels he has to be.

    EL teams should feel confident and an inner belief to beat these teams(beaten before they take to the field etc), otherwise they will never progress, after all winning breeds confidence.

    Finally, winning against latvian opposition will help bring in crowds i.e. winning against such opposition will eventually draw bigger clubs and help advertise the league. If this occurred year on year crowds would flock to the league.

    His experiences in Europe have largely been because of his conservative attitude. There's no magical aura in Europe which makes mid-table Latvian teams pounce on errors quicker.

    your constant ribbing of every negative of the Eircom League is just as tiring, believe you me. Not to mention the fact that most of your posts in this forum, when things go wrong, come across as some sort of strange gloating.

    What was your post supposed to mean then? "Eircom League teams you better start winning or else...." - its not like we and others arent trying or dont want to. Sometimes things dont go to plan. One things for sure, people like you dont help the cause of our domestic teams.

    How do you expect us to respect what you post when you come onto this forum not 5 minutes after the game is over and start this rubbish. I didnt see you come on to congratulate the league or Bohs when we put Rhyl away scoring a hatful in the process.

    Im not surprised as i have seen this crap from you before but maybe if you waited a while and read about the game you might have a slightly different opinion. Lets just say the "sportsmanship" of the Latvians from last week continued this week.

    Anyway, i dont expect you to care too much about the game itself as you have now got the attention you seem to desperately crave. Congratulations.

    I personally know that the Latvian League is no better than the League of Ireland, for the top teams in Ireland going out to teams from Latvia to me, is not doing the league justice, Bohs are much better than Riga, Bohs are suppose to best team in Ireland at the moment, and for them to get knocked out by slighly-above average team in Latvia, gives the league a bad name.

    They are not showing a stream of the game rather a 'Live Play' Market

    I thought Bohs were unlucky. The Riga team got the job done..but Bohs for me were the better side.

    Their number 19 looked good. Him and Kelly were the best on the pitch with the ball at their feet.

    They have a camera beside the game's betting odds and the match is listed on their live streaming page. However if RTE aren't showing the match I'm not too sure what camera they'll be using to stream the game.

    I think they're still sulking from quite rightly being told where to go by Drogheda when they wanted rights to their previous campaign gratis.
    A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
