Today FM Poll

[Redie]

The Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show is running a poll for the 'Best Moments of 2008' and one of the categories is best sporting moment. Wouldn't it be a good one if a
League of Ireland moment topped that poll. it is an on-line poll on the Today FM Website/Breakfast Show.

Could we organise something

[pixiehead]

Id be up for it. I dont listen to today FM and i think they have their heads buried in the premiership :mad:
What "moment" had ya in mind

[Mr A]

So for something completely random, like Monaghan's 5-1 hammering of Longford :)

Ya, great idea. If we could nominate one League Of Ireland moment (for example Bohs winning the double) and everyone on here texted in that moment then maybe it might make the poll.

:( :(

[Magicme]

I like that Mr A or how about our dying seconds equaliser against Dundalk in the 2-2 game at KCP??

We'd need something teh majority would agree on....

So I nominate Limericks last minute equaliser to keep Shels down ;)

That was a memorable one alright. ;)

[EAFC_rdfl]

thats the one to go with (limerick equalizer). It should be put at the top of foot.ie for a while so everyone see's it. its an online form with 17 questions about the year gone by, bit tedious having to do them all but would be worth it. sicken dempsey, mcmullen and paul collins anyway!!!!

[tiktok]

I'll vote for that. :D

[Magicme]

I wont vote for that, I think it has been over celebrated already.

[L37Ultra]

I'll vote for that, but can't see many Shels fans voting for it :D

Would love to hear Paul Collin's reaction :)

[Réiteoir]

How about Glen Crowe swearing live on National TV?

They'd then be obliged to play said clip :D

[Sam_Heggy]

Drogheda coming close to knocking out Kiev in the champions league.

Bohs superb season.

A classic game of ball in the cup final

The steady improvement in the quality of football in the league

Pats beating Elfsborg in UEFA cup

A fair few could be used, Id say the steady improvement in the quality of football (not at Harps obviously but in the league in general) Players the likes of Coleman, O'Shea, Fahey, McGinn, McCourt, Kalounas and many more being touted for top SPL and Championship sides is testement to how the league is improving. The fact also that the transfer fees received from English clubs seems much higher than they used to be (ie. Doyle and Long €127k to McCourt circa €500k) means the league must be viewed/ rated higher than before by other leagues.

Yeah that was memorable, the roar that went up was deafening! :D

yes, would be brilliant :rolleyes: have yis nothing better to be doing? do you really think that even an attempted rigging of the poll by this forum will get enough votes to surpass the likes of our olympic medals, kilkennys all-ireland or tyrones all-ireland? i doubt you'd reach a 3 digit figure of votes

Cobh Ramblers 0-0 UCD.

[EAFC_rdfl]

[Black and White]

[Réiteoir]

Jeez - chill out fella :rolleyes:

[L37Ultra]

I can see the headlines now.

League Of Ireland in yet another fixing scam. :D :D

[fergalr]

have yis nothing better to be doing?
Personally? No.

I'll vote for the Limerick equaliser.

[EAFC_rdfl]

Jeez - chill out fella :rolleyes:
thanks, i resisted the urge to reply to that one;)

Essentially the same incident but 50km apart!

[Karl Phillips]

Wont be voting for it, in fact I would vote for anything else!!!!

[sadloserkid]

Spoilsport. Now I know how you must have felt after the goal... :(

[Monkfish]

I wont vote for that, I think it has been over celebrated already.

You bitter bitter woman! :D

Count me in! :)

[GalwayRed]

couldnt vote for that not the goal itself.........if you turn it into the reaction of the dundalk players at station road it would surely get more votes though...........still wouldnt vote for it but it would probably get more votes:o

[finnpark]

I suggest St Pats win over Elfsborg. :) If we choose Limerick or other they will skew the voting anyway so lets go for something that deserves to get the award. :)

[cheifo]

Anything other than "the brillant FAI cup final" would look like it was a gimmick imo.

[Ram72]

How about the classic game of the 1st series, game 8:

Get a life. That game is best forgotten.:mad:

[finnpark]

Anything other than "the brillant FAI cup final" would look like it was a gimmick imo.

Yes, that would be a worthy winner :)

[Redie]

Personally I would prefer go for "This Year's FAI Cup Final".

A bit of Credibility.

[gspain]

As a Limerick fan who was behind the goal when Colin Scanlon scored I'd still go for Pats v Elfsborg. Much as I am proud of our team and their performances in the title race (including a win at Oriel Park) St Pats v Elfsborg was a special night. Pats did our league and country proud.

[elroy]

I think Pats at home at Elfsborg has to be it. Or from a cork point of view, the Setanta cup victory but somehow i get the feeling not many would be keen on voting for Cork this year.

God how sweet would it be to hear Paul "Bainesteoir nothing else but the gaa matters" Collins having to read out that a LOI moment was voted sporting moment of the year!!

[Mr A]

I say we just have a debate that goes around in circles, then do nothing.

Then do the same next year.

[wexledge]

how bout Wexford's lack of lighting, one of the most talked bout stories!! :p

[oldyouth]

There was no 'lack of lighting'. If there was, L37 would have won their appeal.

Anyway, it was a bad day for LOI football from both sides and should be forgotten

[HarpoJoyce]

Forgotten? or later to be served cold with a dribble of Virgin Olive Oil?

This year I'd vote for something representative of league. Pat's/ Elfsborg (2nd game), Bohs double, one of the Cup Finals.

[holidaysong]

Pat's - Elfsborg should probably be it alright. One of the most enjoyable games that I've attended as a neutral..

Yes, that had more flinging of poo.

That poll probably gets tens of thousands of votes for the winner. I doubt we could swing it, even if we got every LoI fan active on the internet to vote.

My vote is that we arrange a fight between Paul Collins and a monkey instead. We could make money off that idea.

[gael353]

There was no 'lack of lighting'. If there was, L37 would have won their appeal.



its funny you should mention that, cos although limerick appealed due to the lack of lighting on the training pitch which led to it being unsafe etc it wasnt even mentioned by the fai in both their judgements. You see, if Mick Wallace had shot Mike Kerley dead, the fai wouldnt punish him, as he has more money to run tru the courts to throw against them.

[John83]

...You see, if Mick Wallace had shot Mike Kerley dead, the fai wouldnt punish him...
Nah. Ollie Byrne did that once and they got him with "bringing the game into disrepute," which is fair really, given that Kerley grew back.
