Airtricity League of Ireland 2022

[Bluerover]

Rovers 0-0 in the second leg with Hibernians Malta. Riding our luck in terms of chances but some real rough arm tactics from the Maltese. Very much looking like they are playing for the draw......time for a Guinness

 

[Bluerover]

OK we did the business. Not attractive but that Hibernians team was the dirtiest I have seen since Atletico and Uruguay in 1974. Every tackle was horrible

6,393 souls in Turners Cross to see one of the worst games of ball ever played, anywhere. Galway were down to 10 after 25 min and we never caused them a serious issue tbh.

Went home for the Sligo Rovers match v Bala Town, to say Rovers were a disgrace would be an understatement, absolutely blessed to be going through, they can thank Ed McGinty and lady luck, fighting with myself about going up to Motherwell.

Just checking @Bluerover is OK? Unusual to see a number of Shams games go by without a report on proceedings.

Thanks Nero. I've been under the weather for a couple of weeks, but today feeling much better.

Waterford knock holders Pat's out of the Cup at Richmond Park - wow!

@NeroCeasar I see ye got through against Ramblers but this photo is frightening. St Colman's Park should not be used for fixtures until a full safety inspection is carried out.

Keating goal enough for Cork to claim derby spoils

Cork City progressed into the second round of the FAI Cup after this local derby win over Cobh Ramblers at St Colman's Park.

This is a better look at what happened. Tbf to Cobh they are saying that the barrier is meant to collapse under certain weight and that they are an FAI requirement. So if that's correct then as bad as it looks, it actually worked as it should. That then brings us to the question of overcrowding in the section

Good to hear you are feeling better, Wexford won in Sligo as well

 

[Bluerover]

I don't know whether to laugh or cry ffs. Rovers had to fly from Shannon to Malta and Pat's had to fly from Knock. "Evil"

A right shower of gobs***es this crowd.

Shkupi promise revenge over 'evil' Irish airport woes

Shamrock Rovers' Europa League opponents Shkupi have released an extraordinary statement condemning the "evil" decision to prevent them from flying into Dublin, with the North Macedonian side instead heading to Shannon Airport ahead of their Tallaght Stadium showdown tonight.

Pat's very solid in the first half away to CSKA Sofia. Comfortable 0-0 at HT.

Sligo not so good, 0-2 at HT at Viking.

 

[Bluerover]

Great goal by Atakayi, and richly deserved by Pat's. Really sets things up for the 2nd leg in Tallaght next week.

Sadly Sligo being thumped 0-5

 

[Bluerover]

Well done Pat's! Really well deserved 1-0 FT

Sligo pull one back, but surely it is curtains chasing a 4 goal deficit

Come on Rovers - do these whinging numptees

 

[dublinbluenose]

Rovers absolutely bossing this match - fantastic move for the 2nd
