Airtricity League 2023

Not good mate. Very happy with my mob.

So you should be, Bohs don't have the squad for it and Derry have, I'm convinced, a soft underbelly so once again, it is yours to win at a canter.
Looks like Colm Whealan has done his acl again, the night he got the 3rd in TX, at least I could console myself with the thought, well Whelan deserves that on his first night back

Oh Happy Day! Rovers win Bohs lose and we are back on top. KOH!!!

Absolutely destroyed again by referee . 1 up in 93rd minute and lose 2 1, 2 red cards, 1 absolute stonewall penalty not given when 1 up and that rat O Donnell reffing the game from the line all night. I'm absolutely done with this bs officiating, every week we are getting ridden rock.solid

Cork is too important to be down for long. Keep the faith mate.

It's a mental block. We haven’t beaten them in 5. Enough chances to easily win last night but couldn't.

Still hope to make TX on Friday but won't know until maybe Thursday. My br in law will travel if I go.

I presume you haven't made it down? If you have then unfortunately I have tickets for the lounge pre game so won't be around the pubs before the game. Hopefully next time

@NeroCeasar

I don't know what happened in the last post.

Anyway, no too much going on here to make it down. I will say nothing until I read your own learned view on that !!

For me Towell is a red card, he kicked out, granted didn't connect with Walkers face but he did kick out so I'm OK with red. Kenny came on like a lunatic, was rightly booked within 60 sec for abusing linesman, after that it was only a matter of time really but I'm not sure the one he gets the second yellow for is a yellow. Neither of Hoares are yellows imho but it's like I said with Matt Healy last week, when your on one don't give the ref a decision to make. Thought we were awful playing against 8 tbh, so slow and pedestrian but we got away with it. Cleary very lucky to get away with yellow and not red after Hoare sending off and Lopes, Finn and O Neill all have questions to answer at the final whistle, O Neill put his hands on the linesman.

Absolutely condemn the abuse aimed at Stephen Bradley afterwards and hopefully those who did it see the inside of a courtroom.

Rovers fans attacking random people in the streets post game should also get a mention

Fair comments.

There is no room for idiotic behaviour at any match, before, during or after. Probably just as well I didn't travel given how it turned out.

I feel, strangely, that this might be another turning point as it is nights like this that will really unite the team.

All to play for yet - might meet you later in the season mate.

Meanwhile we sit and wait for tomorrow!!
