    Hate to be a party pooper but Rovers were outclassed by a team from Iceland in their attempts to get into Europe.
    Both at club & national level we are sliding down the UEFA rankings. Mr Delaney’s legacy is a deep one

    @Gerry Kelly: well if Irish football supporters would spend their money on Irish football rather than British football we would be in a much healthier position. You can buy an adult season ticket for any LOI team for less than most Irish based fans spend on a single home match trip to their English/ Scottish teams. We can’t just blame Delaney, we have to take responsibility too.

    @Gerry Kelly: Gerry you are obviously not a league of ireland fan, if you were, you’d know that the league is in the best place it’s ever been. With only 2 teams part time this season and attendances up at every club. Go and spout your Sh11 some where else

    @Paul Fahey: League of Ireland matches sellout these days. The stadiums aren’t big enough to cope with English club supporting fans.

    Deserved Champions in the end. Was a bit nervous in the run in. The win against Pats was a fantastic way to win it! Up the Hoops!!

    Three times the budget of everyone else, poach all the best players in the league and still only win it by 7pts. They should be blowing the 2nd placed club away by 25-30pts.

    @Andy Felthersnatch: A league title is a league title, no one remembers or cares about the points gap years down the road. It’s all about winning league titles at the end of it all. So wind your neck in your simpleton.

    @Alberto Balsam: Typical Rovers fan, whitewashing the way you were gift-wrapped the Covid League by the FAI. Rovers fans might forget how they inherited it but the rest of the LOI family won’t. It’ll always have an * after it.

    @Andy Felthersnatch: those stars are for 10 leagues each. So, if you took your lunacy as fact that it’s 3.5 leagues, then those 2 stars would still be valid. Anyone, rovers fans or otherwise, who believes that they are for European cups is troubled.If you don’t know that, well, have you came across google before??

    @Dec Mckenna: I knew you were talking schite so I checked, apparently Rovers awarded themselves those stars for qualifying for two group stages of the lesser European competitions.
    Jeez, everyone gets a medal these days just for taking part.

    @Leonard Gardner: Mentioning Rovers and credit in the same sentence is a bit of a stretch.
    The only ones who give them ‘credit’ are their knuckle dragging fans.
