Yeh your manager never said you would be in a title challenge! LOLLOLLOLLOL
 
So tell me exactly, where is "title challenge" in those statements?    Every team wants to challenge them, no point in being in the game if you don't want to. 
 
Every manager wants to "win the league", again if you don't, you're in the wrong game.   And did he say that was gonna happen this year?  No.  The intent is there, so it should be, doesn't mean he's saying we were gonna be title challenging and certainly not this year.
 
You demonstrate a fairly wild imagination and clear obsession with Rovers.   It's beyond tiresome at this stage. 
 
Rovers fans have had too many sh*tty years when Milltown went until we got a place to call home again, so your orgasmic glee at Rovers' current travails are water of a duck's back.   Off now back to your Fisher Price like a good lad.

Stephen Kenny said he wants to qualify for the Champions League group stages this year, When we don't (realistically we wont) can I say he must have meant he wants to dosnt mean he thought we could LOL
2 in a row and we won it in Tallaght

PM where am I deluded? I had no expectation of us winning the title. I expected progress and competitiveness, which we sadly haven't shown yet. Twoinarow bandies about silly assumptions in statements.

No Hoops fan (those with intelligence) can say the players aren't trying, it was clear in recent years too many weren't. Maybe some are trying too hard leading to indiscipline but Bradser needs help.

Bradley is struggling but he's not stupid and he certainly wasn't expecting to win a title in his first full season and neither were the fans.

You might not have but Bradley clearly did, read his comments pre-season where he is clearly talking of challenging. The poor lad is so far out of his depth that I would feel sorry for him if he was at any other club.

As  for Shams fans with intelligence, I really don't think it is possible. RTID being a perfect example, well capable of an intelligent statement or two , that is until you mention SRFC and trips his wires. I have often had debates in bars with fans of every LOI club, it is impossible with Shamrock fans due to the delusion. I have watched them play a home game in six different grounds and even that didn't bring reality home. I am sure there are intelligent people who "folly de Rovahs" until the club they support becomes relevant and the switch is tripped again.

Fair play, I must have watched the bones of a hundred at all age levels across a few different leagues. Did you ever get to see any West Cork league sides? You might have seen me as a hungover sub.

Like I said earlier I'd rather have a madly optimistic manager than a whinger (whine whine whine I'm 9 points behind give me a penelty ) now that's embarrassing,
Keep up with your obsession though it's reassuring how much you care.

The subtle difference is that, pre madonna, you've proved yourself to be an absolute fool when it comes to posts, so your opinion is hollow and baseless. What you say carries no merit whatsoever

Why when the majority of Shams fans get proven wrong, they resort to insults?

You can't deny Bradley was talking up a title challenge no matter what way u wanna mix his words.

Maybe he was talking about 1st Divison next year?

Hopefully ye get the result against Limerick on Friday just to keep the show on the road, for entertainment purposes alone having Bradders in the job is of the up most importance.

How is it resorting to insults to point out your manager is as capable of making an idiot of himself just as much as bradley can be overly optimistic.
Both are true.

Another club who hilariously overstated their credentials pre-season. More so than Shams even.

The only one mixing words is yourself lad.  Your last line is your usual lame attempt at humour.
 
Jog on with your embarrassing obsession.

Always find it bizarre, very seldom I go on other clubs threads.

Some fellas definitely are (twoinarow etc.), for me it was always more Shels, Waterford and even Drogs who I disliked. Shams just provide regular comedic moments that most find entertaining.
