    By jaysus, there's no covering that up. That was horrific.

    Worst match ever. Two shocking teams. LOI is so boring now.

    I see the Bohemians "Golden Goals" tickets now show dates instead of minutes.

    I'm even doubting your players ability to score an own goal if they had to.

    I can't disagree. I've seen continental drift move fast than yer man Scully.

    Bohs are a disgrace to the game. To call them sh!te would be an injustice to sh!te.


  • Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 23,228 Mod ✭✭✭✭GLaDOS


    We were shíte indeed, but Pats weren't particularly great either, can't remember McNulty making any significant saves

    I'm not even gonna get into the usual Boards tripe. Pat's were sh!t, but Bohs can quite frankly f*ck off and get relegated!!!

    Long ball, long throw! Long ball, long throw! Long ball, long throw! Jesus Christ, i'd ask for my money back, but it'd be like robbing a Trocaire box!

    Enjoy the season!!!

    Rather harsh on Bohs. Pats used the same long ball tactic throughout the game too. There best chance O'Flynn ballooned over from 3/4 yards out. It was harder to miss than score. I really hope it was just an off day for both teams.

    From what I thought was going to be a very tough 3 Dublin Derbys in a row for Rovers has me left feeling very optimistic now.

    Get out of that we're only 3 points behind you after a much more difficult start. I'd go as far as to say we've got the most difficult first 5 fixtures, and after those we should really be looking to put a run of wins together.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,170 ✭✭✭Hard Worker


    I'm not surprised about the hoofball. That pitch was in a shocking state.
    The worst game I've seen in years.

    You could say the exact same thing about Pat's style of play for the last few seasons under Mahon, can't remember too many of you on here complaining about it.

    Beware the Rovers-Bohs league placing/current form jinx.

    Ive seen poor lineups from both teams over the years cause a fair few problems for each other.

    Aye unfortunately its always unpredictable, even when we were relegation candidates we caused a few upsets, I expect the favour to be returned soon.

    When teams sit back and let us play "tip-tap" football is when we seem worse we no penetration.

    How are tickets selling btw?

    Pat's were getting results though. Theres a big difference there, though they were horrible to watch.

    Was going to say that. No way a result is guaranteed.

    Would be sweet though. :)

    They did have the 2 of the most exciting players in the country up front last year though.

    Bohs forward players were non existent today.

    6 hours without a goal. Can see that being 7 1/2 hrs. after the Rovers game.

    We were rubbish, dunno why Flynn started ahead of Fagan or why Forrester wasnt on at some point.

    Didnt have to defend much today.

    @ saint pats fans

    how has Stephen Flynn been for ye so far?

    played against him quiet bit when younger, he was smashing player, honestly thought he make more of himself in England. Nice lad though.

    O'Flynn?

    I havn't seen many games this season obviously, but watched the match today. He missed a chance from like 4 yards out... :o But he has scored for us, against Dundalk so presume he's been doing okay.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,296 ✭✭✭EdenHazard


    his tats are shocking, big bald headed white pale lad with tatoos!

    I actually like what i've seen of O' Flynn so far. Pat's fans seem to be divided on him. He's not going to be prolific, he's a right handful and works his socks off. As a Pat's fan, i'm glad he's in our squad!!

    Why weren't Pats playing the football they like to play under Buckley today? They didn't even try to :confused:

    If it is, then there must be something abouty playing Boez, they drag teams to their level. Happened to Shels for the first half against them.

    It actually is a serious post! I seen Pats a few weeks ago and they were determined to play it out from the back.

    Fair play Dreamers. You must be chuffed. My fear is that my sons will want to play Gah because my area is heavy into it. :(

    Move!!!!! :D

    Its the LOI that will only work when the other team lets you.

    4 games in and havent really played anyone decent yet. Still reckon a few more weeks and we should have a settled team.

    I think both teams gave up on it early in the game due to the state of the pitch.

    Wouldn't have happened back when you had 20-odd ground staff on the payroll, wha. :)

    The pitch being in tatters definitely didn't help anyway.

    Youths absolutely woeful tonight, 9 changes from the team that beat Finn Harps away on Saturday. We've a good first XI but absolutely no depth.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,965 ✭✭✭✭Gavin "shels"


    Shocking match in Tolka, witnessed by a tiny crowd. A win is a win though.

    We actually played really well the first half against Shels. We were all over you. In terms of dragging teams down a level, any team with Alan Matthews managing them will do that.
