No idea.

Karl Spain's been a fan of the club for a while, if he counts as a "celebrity" anymore.

[Dillonman]

stan "im the boss,im the gaffer" staunton has been at a lot of dfc games. hes also from town which helps. ex td dermott ahern is a season ti ket holder although he can do one.

[Longfordian]

Chris Kamara is a Town fan. Well he's probably not but he has a Town polo shirt so we'll claim him..until someone better comes along.

Yeah, our claim to fame is Stan and Dermot..

'kin hell. :shame:

[Dillonman]

you can add in jim corr there too if you want. have seen him at a few games but i wouldnt like to claim him cause he probably thinks the government are using the league to mind control the people.

[Longfordian]

Jim Corr?

Edit: proudly claimed by Dillonman there

[Charlie Darwin]

Dave Fanning is a UCD fan. I assume he chose them because they sound the most like U2.

[White Horse]

Seanie Fitzpatrick, Fingers Fingleton, and Satan are Shamrock Rovers fans apparently. ;)

[nigel-harps1954]

Daniel O'Donnell - Finn Harps. ;P

Keep them!

[SkStu]

Although Sam L. wins this thread, Irvine Welsh is also a Bohs fan. Attended Bohs games very regularly down the years.

[Martinho II]

never heard that story before about Kamara tell me more Longfordian?

[Longfordian]

Someone gave him a Town polo shirt a few years back. End of story :)

Anyone got the result of the Sligo Limerick match. Working in Castlebar and couldn't make the match. Not long off stage.

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

Does he not follow the Limerick FC Twitter page?

[bluewhitearmy]

No idea. Talking to one of the lads they were talking to him and say he is actually well clued up on what has been going on and how we have been doing last few years.

[Fivesilver]

So now we've got Westlife AND One Direction? In danger of collapsing under the weight of all the street cred.

[El-Pietro]

Surely they would be City fans, from Baltimore in West (VERRRY WEST) Cork.

yeah like she sounds like one!

[bullit]

Tommy Smyth ESPN is a big Dundalk supporter(not a celeb maybe but he has a huge Twitter following) .The late Dermot Morgan AKA Father Ted was a massive UCD and LOI fan.I think i read somewere that he also marched on or organised marches in support of KRAM(Keep Rovers At Milltown) back in the day?

[SkStu]

Tommy Smyth ESPN is a big Dundalk supporter .

Ahhhhh, that explains why I find him an insufferable pr!ck... ;) though I have noticed him mention LOI teams a few times during commentary so kudos there...

[DannyInvincible]

No doubt, fairly well-known, but John Hume, Eamonn McCann and Martin McGuinness are Derry City supporters. The Undertones too, and Phil Coulter, apparently. Maybe even Dana?!

Saw this on Twitter the other week, taken during Martin McGuinness' trip to São Paulo: https://twitter.com/M_McGuinness_SF/status/311761156144517120/photo/1

Define celebrity. I saw this chap on O'Connell street about a year ago and I got that 'oh fyck, there's someone famous' buzz:

By the way, why doesn't Johnny Logan follow Dundalk?

[PartySaint]

Tommy Smyth ESPN is a big Dundalk supporter(not a celeb maybe but he has a huge Twitter following)

Gives the LOI a good mention on twitter as well. Mentioned Pats and Dundalk on ESPN Press Pass at the end of last season as well.

[bullit]

que?
Pity he didnt follow Franchise.Right B2BW ?

[SkStu]

Logan is a Bohs fan... how bloody dare you all try to claim the cool ones.

[born2bwild]

que?

Fingal didn't have any celebrity fans.

Go on, I dare you: fix my post.

[born2bwild]

Logan is a Bohs fan... how bloody dare you all try to claim the cool ones.
I know he follows Bohs - but he's from Dundalk, isn't he?

EDIT: so he's not from Dundalk. according to this: http://www.johnnyloganfan.com/index.php/nice-to-know/facts-and-information
he went to school in Drogheda, though.

So,,what I meant was....why doesn't he follow Drogheda? I mean, given a choice between them and Bohs....sheesh....astoundingly his taste in football is worse than his taste in music.

[BonnieShels]

Fingal don't have any fans.

Go on, I dare you: fix my post.

Heh heh.

[born2bwild]

Heh heh.
You ********!

[BonnieShels]

I've fixed my fix.

[born2bwild]

Distressingly, I've learned from the Johnny Logan Website that:
The Dubliners came often in Johnny Logan's childhood home

On that, wasn't Luke Kelly supposed to be a Bohs fan?

[nigel-harps1954]

That is an awfully distressing statement indeed and made me cringe ever so slightly.

[markc1184]

Doesn't Johnny Logan live around the Ashbourne/Ratoath area so Bohs would probably be his local side.

[SkStu]

He definitely did live in Ashbourne, Mark, and he also went to Scoil Mhuire in Howth as a chisler so hes a devout northsider - therefore Bohs being the only true option.

[Charlie Darwin]

I happen to know that Johnny Logan is a boyhood Sporting Fingal fan, as were his pappy and grandpappy before him.

Poor Mammy Logan

[Nesta99]

We just didnt need a second Jonny Logan at the club...though one could have sang in the lounge while the other served the pints
