Joanne Cantwell prefaced her report on Waterford-Pat's with a vox pop attempting to establish that hurling is the number one "sport" in Waterford, before referring to Utd as a "soccer team." Gah ****s like that shouldn't be allowed near the show.

He actually looked slimmer in person though admittedly it was dark when I saw him!. Must be true what they say about the camera adding ten pounds.

Did I head Rico saying 'Fingal County' as opposed to Sporting Fingal?

Freudian slip perhaps given their close relationship with their local authority.

I thought Rico had a brilliant set of reasons for Cork loosing.......friendly against Celtic......long journey.......no overnight stay.......the pitch......the lateness of the goal.......

Of course it could not be as simple as being beaten by a better team on the night!

Yeah it did, apart from the shockingly bad crowd at it.:( The fact that everyone is so spaced out in both stands makes it look even worse.

Nice piece about us in the cup, tubby spoke very well. Some strike form wjk too :)

that ex waterford player, or waterford fan whoever he was, said 'soccer' a few times. should be shot.

dont know why they had to use soccer in the name of the show either!

Well it's a fact that a lot of people in Ireland refer to 'association football' as 'soccer'. No big deal in my opinion - after living down the country for over 3 years I know that if you say 'soccer' people think you are talking about GAA football. Have no problem with it.

Okay, no the pats fans looked quite well, and fair play to them, nice crowd of them.

I was waiting for that comment :D

If i asked someone down here if they were going to the football match, they'd immediately thing of gaa, mostly referred to soccer down here. Get slated in college in dublin for calling it soccer though.

Rico did say that didnt he ?

PS anyone know why Pats wore a 'snazzy' all green kit in the 1980 cup final, seems odd as Waterford wore their changed all white, even if they wore all blue it seems an odd colour for Pats, never heard of them in green before ?

Dodge ?

I'd have to check. He may well have said 'indubitively'. :p We all sat around trying to say it after him. No one could.

Especially if like me he was listening to Dundalk FM last Saturday night.

Just getting the chance to see it now. Nice to see Section O getting a mention! Some great memories now. Only small thing with that piece was the Cup being photographed outside Celtic Supporters bar with Celtic shirt wearing person in background... but great piece Eamon!

It was our away kit that year, we had to wear it in the semi's against Bohs and won so they kept it as a good luck charm, but clearly didnt work:( we had a green away jersey a few years back aswell(after the merge with St Francis)

Dlk FM is primarily a pirate station, like lsitening to 2 old guys downt he pub - you`re right it is hillarious.

My fav line so far this year was in the cup replay v Bohs, the boys were obviously sitting in the stand amongst the fans, not content with telling some people to 'move otta that will ya' one of the commentators says, with one min to go in extra time

'ah ref will ya blow up the fxxx'
