my. what a big spike that is.
nah, it is impressive (and I admit I thought it was going to be crap but I agreed that something had to be done). Now, can we still put gay byrne on top of it? 🙂
rita: we do play football, and we have fans as dedicated as any other country as well as a team with as great a potential as almost any other football nation – ok, not brazil, or argentina, or any south american team… or maybe most of europe…. 🙂
perhaps two consecutive draws with Portugal in the run up to the world cup springs to mind, hmmm?
However, both the scottish and the Irish fans have a great reputation for their huge support and very little trouble or violence.
I still think we should demand our money back from the taxes given to the GAA for Croke park.
I personally have never been to , and will never go to , a gaelic of hurling match in croke park and yet a portion of my money has been taken (without my permission) and given to the GAA. I’m not a soccer fan, but I’ll be damned if I’ll fund someones personal hobby at the expense of everyone else’s pleasure.
also, didn’t a GAA council member say “No gombeen politician is going to dictate to the gaa”. fine, no “gombeen” GAA councilman is going to make a living off my labour!
ps. I’m not anti GAA. I’m anti gaa attitude to non-gaelic games which to me smacks of racism and uber-nationalist b*ll*x.
Pity though, would have been nice to show europe that our stadiums aren’t limited to the rather minuscule and laughable Landsdowne road.
