I thought the Bohs match was in belfield? Might actually make it to dalymount now.

GLaDOS

It is in Belfield.

After 3 promising opening games, we've been atrocious the last 2, hope we see a turnaround friday.

iregk

That Sligo Pats game has some potential...

Can't see Bray causing us too many problems at home. Away to them is a different kettle of ballparks all together but at home in fortress Tallaght! No.

Hmm, will be interesting to see what Bohs amount to first hand.

Don't be too quick to judge the Bohs team on a viewing this week, the "begind the scenes" stuff is still affecting the team.

Me thinks its gonna be a tough one one to maintain that sparkling 100% away record now...but ya never know :cool:

Richie Ryan is gonna need a neckbrace after saturday.

Id welcome a draw, fingers crossed.

Wouldnt be so confident...they are very much our bogy team, home and away. 20 games unbeaten...bray come in and outplay us in tallaght.

stovelid

Hoperfully we have too much for Bray but if any team can put a spanner in the works.

Turner and Sives still out with SOD likely not to be fit so Finn and Rice again which is good.

I see we'll (1000) be in the shed for the Bohs game next week. That's the Connaught finished for good so.

What has happened to Pats this season as you did occasionally try and play football last year. Is it the loss of Kenna?

stovelid

They just can't hold their own in the brave new dawn of LOI tiki-taka. :pac:

gustavo

It's gonna be tough without Keane and Peers but I'd still expect a strong enough line up

Clarke

---

Doyle-McGuinness-Foran-Davoren

Dillon

Ryan---Ndo----Greene

Russell

Blinkhorn

Maybe Kirby for Ndo

We should be looking for a win away to Drogheda. We've a few imjury doubts though.

Gary Curran - Broken metatarsal (4-5 weeks)
Alan Murphy - Groin strain (Doubtful)
Steve Feeney - Still not fully fit after his recent ankle injury (Doubtful)
Enda Curran - Groin strain (Doubtful)

If none of them make it, it leaves us very short of numbers in central midfield.

Drogheda are very poor.

Rovers should beat Bray comfortably.

If anyone wants to continue the discussion on a LOI subforum, start a thread in the LOI group. Anyone who hasnt been invited PM me for access.

Anything happen to Turner? I thought he was dropped...

I really would prefer to see Billy given a few games on the bench, but the goal last week will probably buy him more time

Injured supposedly.

Same.

We have a good few out.
"Goalkeeper Murphy will be joined on the sidelines by Ollie Cahill (hamstring) and Lee Dixon (calf) but Killian Brennan may make Friday’s clash with UCD despite suffering bruised ribs. Christy Fagan (hamstring) remains out, as do long-term injuries Chris O’Connor (shoulder) and Glenn Cronin (knee)."

Hopefully we can get a win, UCD look poor aswell. We really suffer without Fagan in the team, and if anything happens to Flood we are f*cked.

Gavin "shels"

Should be a handy 3 points in Athlone on Saturday tbh. Grand National then onto a bus to Lisseywollen, fine aul Saturday.

Surely many of the issues will rumble on for much of the season? i.e. much of the things that Fenlon are unhappy about can't be fixed at this juncture.

Well if Fenlon leaves it'll solve that particular problem.

Kenna being out and Mulcahy in at CB means mc faul and bradley have noone to protect them from the big bad footballers. I would take a chance on Shortall at CB and play Mulcahy Mc Faul and Bradley in the middle.

We will click eventually just need kenna back to provide a calming influcence.

Patron Saints paid for this today, so far nothing has been added

Dr.Winston O'Boogie

Can't see Bray causing many problems for Rovers, and as for bogey team....Rovers are unbeaten in the past 6 against the Seagulls!

For Bohs? Aye. Getting my ticket tomorrow. Great to be in the shed.

Ill be in the Jodi. Im bringin the better half to her first match. Thought this would be a good one. A baptism by fire, if you like. I suppose you're just glad your health isn't being put at risk this time around.

Her Dad took her to a few Poznan Gdansk matches when she was growing up. She'll probably think we're all panzies

It means less worry. Plus it's great to be behind the goal. Pity the tramway is gone.

How many does the shed end seat? I cant see 1,000 leaving much area to be cordoned off.

Holds about 1450, Rovers getting 3 and a half/4 blocks out of the 5. Most of us wanted Rovers in the shed anyway, makes for better atmosphere, even if the Guards are against it.
