And it is cyclical.

I know it is, whether it's been Celtic, Liverpool, City, all of that stuff, you always come back to the pack.

I genuinely believe Rovers in transition at the moment.

And that's the scary part.

I think when you look at, yes, they're good young players, but when you look at the amount of young players that are blooding at the moment, being able to take Victor out of the sides, because his form's gone up and down, Michael Nuland's come back out, because that's what happens to young players.

Your form goes up and then down when you're coming into the side.

Corey O'Sullivan's back in around the team again.

You look at a bench full of kids here today.

We talk about we're always looking later.

That'll be a concern later on in the season.

you know people you know teams can lay a glove on them yeah but it's still six points clear despite of all of that and you'd expect a young team in the rebuild below Steve-O still six points clear despite all of that or eight clear of St Patrick's Athletic

Yeah, yeah, I get that.

Yeah, yeah.

And to be fair, Pats next four games, 4-0-6, I think Stephen touched on it.

I was looking at Pats next couple of weeks' fixtures and they're very favourable.

But actually, ironically, outside of Rovers, Pats' biggest problem has been, you go back a few weeks ago, that double weekend, I think it was Sligo and Galway on the Monday, where they drew both games and dropped, you know, four points.

and that's what i mean about not laying a glove on them you know nobody's putting and i'm not going to repeat what i've said because people go he's saying the same thing nobody's putting them under pressure if you were appointed to a head of rovers and he lost those two games in a row then it's pressure then the next game all of a sudden you're panicking remember when rovers lost and don't talk you walk into the dressing room players take out their phones what's your scores well pat's lost great we're still three points clear

They're not being tested.

Yeah, so then if I can clarify my comments very clearly, covers in transition are there, they're vulnerable.

They're vulnerable to be got at.
