Great crowd.
I’m really hoping someone can put a stop to the Rovers 5 in a row campaign this year. As a Dundalk fan, it definitely won’t be us, unfortunately. Even though they were well bet last night, my money is on Pats to be Rovers’ nearest challengers this season. Can’t wait for the new season to kick off.
