Early I know but a win down there would be great for the team and lift the confidence all round.

As a Rovers fan I would be devastated to lose Jack as he is the best I've seen here,I would love him to come to Stoke as I think he would do a serious job for us. For those asking he was a very promising teenager at Man City but just got frustrated with not getting a chance?bounced around a few clubs but never quite made it and started to get a rep of being a duck.As a last resort he decided to come home to his Mammy and signed for Rovers.The manager love bombed him and they haven't looked back since. It could be the first player to move from Rovers to Stoke in my 50 years following both although Max Murphy a promising young lad did move the other way last year.

We actually had them worried for a short spell after we equalised but backing off for that second goal was poor even though it was a very good shot. Then Collins played a unnecessary ball to Thompson and he ultimately made a hash of controlling it,which was duly punished by an excellent finish. Very disappointing first half but certainly better second. Spurs were robbed of a perfectly good goal which wasn't offside and but for 2 or 3 good saves from Lonergan it could have looked a lot worse. Bit harsh on Collins,he played a good ball to Thompson who fell asleep.

Varian is from Cork and is very highly thought of by any previous coaches.Would be great if he could step up.

Hes not a right back but he's still better there than any of our actual right backs.He could be very very good.

Davies - 5 Really hope he isn't out for long - I like his attitude a lot. Smith - 2 What strange choice to play him again, seriously what are our other options at right-back? He's so limited. Chester - 1 Fuck off. Souttar - 5.5 Looked to play clever balls again, probably the best of the bunch today but he got caught out twice Tymon.- 3 Awful - I didn't even know he was playing the first half hour. play him in midfield or not at all. McClean - 5 Brilliant attitude, probably the only one that gave a shit. What is MON's thinking? Not playing him all season then twice in 5 days? TOB - 2 - I just don't see it, he's nowhere near ready far too lightweight it was like playing with a man down in the first half and a lot of that was down to him. Mikel - 2 Bored of saying it, his legs have gone but he didnt manage the other side of that game today nor did we see any useful passes forward. Quite surprised to see such high scores for him. Vokes - 1 He's finished. Brown - 2 Again, what is his position? Today wasn't his position. Really poor. Fox - 3 Just not that good - not helped out by being played as a centre half in a 3 What was MON thinking... Campbell - 3 Shouldve started couldnt get into the game. Fletcher - 3 See above. Gunn - 3 Needed to be far more brave for the goal, I dont blame him for slipping but he shouldve found a way to fuck it off. MON - Minus 1 - clueless Regarding Tymon, I also didn't know he was playing as I don't think he touched the ball for the first half hour.

Add them all together and you wouldnt get 50.Line up looked shit before the match but we weren't even that good.

The main thing we need is patience,they will make mistakes but will learn. Its probably a help for them that there are no crowds.

I'm one of the few Shamrock Rovers Stokies.I got in to this evenings match as I have a fake media pass. Decent match Rovers gave their all but Pinnochio still has it all. .

Doubt it’ll be ROI any time soon as there is a 14 day mandatory quarantine in place from countries not on the green list. Maybe Northern Ireland?? In fairness no one is bothering their bollox implementing that.

Shamrock Rovers play in Tallaght in south Dublin which is very close to where I grew up. Would be great if MON old and new could play.They are about to resume the league where Rovers have won their first 5 matches and the league is only going to be 18 games.

We would have gotten 20 million for Butland a year ago now we wouldn't get 2.We have very few players who would attract PL interest so it could well be a clearout of the deadwood with very little return but its probably a price worth paying.

Just to give a perspective of someone living in Ireland;We have been gradually reopening but we have had to slow that down because of a rise in the R number in the last week.Mask are mandatory on public transport but that is pretty much unenforceable. We have the death rate down to 1 and 2s and the new cases averaging 15 a day.The real problem here is anyone from anywhere can fly in to the country and there are no real checks in the airport.
