    Last Thursday’s events at the UCD game was the latest in a number of incidents over the past three weeks, both at home and away matches, and the message from the club and its real supporters is clear to the people who have carried out these attacks on the name of our great club - we no longer want you attending games

    Let it go, you are embarrasing yourself.

    Hard luck Dundalk. Would have been poetic justice for you to get up. And a little more interesting than watching Finn Harps...

    No complaints about the result on friday. Just have to rebuild and try again next year. Great start to the season and really should have pushed on and won the league but being honest Cobh and Harps deserved to finish ahead of us. Clear out of players is required. Need to bring in some quality especially up front. Struggled for goals from about a third of the way through the season.
    Good luck Harps.

    and none of these matches are scheduled for live TV! :eek:

    And thank **** for that - no club associated with the first division or a game at the RSC should be allowed near the TV screens!

    ^ Agreed, the premier division is still hit or miss for live games on TV, so the 1st Division shouldn't be anywhere near TV. And also, the RSC should be levelled. Worst ground in the Premier Division by a mile, and I include Cobh Ramblers pit in that as well.

    Derry scraped past Cobh 2-1 last night to earn their spot in next years Setanta.

    Harps play Waterfird tonight. Im hoping Waterford can negotiate this better than last year, but doubt they have what it takes. They are an incredibly poor side.

    Going for a 1-0 win for Waterford, pity they'll be no Waterford fans there supporting them:D

    The Dundalk game on Friday was on Dundalk FM and some waterford fan kept texing in. The commentator got p!ssed off with him and said, "Waterford are a well supported team, with your 30 fans than made it to the playoff in Oriel last year. The playoff that you lost....":D:D (paraphrased a bit!)

    I love having biased commentators especially when they don't let objectivity get in the way of their broadcast.

    Finsihed 3-0 to Finn Harps, with Pat Fylnn being sent-off for Waterford. Cronin said after the game that he will resign before Friday if the Board want him to leave.

    I definitely agree the First Division should be censored from live TV, unquestionably bar the odd decent match it's a piss league but i would still have liked to see one of the play-off legs on the box, i recall the Dublin City/Rovers 2nd leg live a couple years back and it was actually an enthralling match to watch!

    anyway, hoping for a 4-0 Wahherford win on Friday, i hate Harps

    that was completely and utterly unprofessional of him to say that half-way through a two legged tie irrespective of what his emotions were after such a disappointing defeat

    i hope to god the rumours of him going to Shels aren't true :confused:

    Agreed.

    Keeley seems intent on a DOF role so you gonna need someone who can kick you out of that league, Cronin or Reynolds tbh.

    well in that case if we want to do kicking properly then Reynolds please :D

    many Waterford fans have been of the opinion all season that Cronin is a sh!t manager and his actions last night are not symbolic of the characteristics of a level headed and disciplined manager that you need to get out of the first division, talk about not having any confidence or even respect for your players when there was still 90 minutes to play and still the possibility of a tie to be won is absolutely shameful IMO

    i'd almost prefer Roddy :eek:

    he wouldnt take it, you cant be relegated till 2009 so maybe then.

    I actually was told about 2 weeks ago about him moving to Shels by a contact in Waterford. Hope to God it's not true.

    3-3 tonight. Harps are back in the Premeier Division. Cheerio RSC. Back to the graveyard where you belong.

    Congrats Harps.

    Tis a nice stadium, but I hate with a passion running tracks around pitchs.:D With no huge derbies (except the Kilkenny one who brought no fans to Tolka twice) how are they going to fill two stands now.:confused:
