You should know by now that the over reliance on cards by refs in this league is an absolute joke.Mannus, Rovers keeper is booked in 90+1 - what the hell is going on?

There were 13 yellow cards in the Finn Harps vs Galway game last weekend and dosent include the red for Caulfield as he's not a player on the pitch so I don't count his cards. 11 in the Bohs game tonight plus all the ones in Drogheda. There were 5 at the Brandwell but the one given to Derry CB Connolly was absolutely ridiculous.
There were 10 games last week and 715 booking pts (10 pts for YC, 25 for RC) that's an average of 71 or 7 YC a game, that's absolutely insane and we haven't seen Tomney yet this season
RTE aren't showing it, next game they are showing is Derrys home game on Paddy's dayThe clubs need to present a united front to protest to the League about this.
The supporters are paying good money to see footballers not to see megalomaniacs waving cards around.
Rovers v Derry next week - I have my ticket but already I am dreading another "" look at me - I am the most important person on the pitch" idiot seeking all the attention. A good chance RTE will show it live which makes that likelihood even more probable.
No chance of travelling on a Monday night or a Friday either tbh so will be loitv for meHitting the road shortly for Tallaght and Rovers v Derry City.
Really going to be a major challenge - Derry very good side at any time - tonight Rovers have three central defenders suspended.
The crowd are going to be hugely important to roar on the lads. I am hopeful but quite worried about losing more ground so early in the season.

@NeroCeasar Mrs BR and I will be on a short break in Brugge on Monday so I won't be able to be there obvs, Are you travelling?
Really poor start from Rovers which makes me think the longer we stay in the game the more angsty the home crowd will become and we may have a chance of taking somethingFT1

Rovers very disappointing 2nd half. Derry took their two chances while Rovers have huffed and puffed.
In fairness the crowd didn't get on to their backs last night.Really poor start from Rovers which makes me think the longer we stay in the game the more angsty the home crowd will become and we may have a chance of taking something
