the decision by the FAI on Monday night to promote Galway United FC to the premier division in the club's place.
Makes me want to burn down the ITs new shiny HQ!!!
Yeah, talk about inaccuracies! Surely it was in place of Waterford that they were promoted :D

Maxi McAllister, what a quality name, if anyone ever doubted that the eL and its fans are the Simpsons of European football, then there you go.
Mind you, it wouldn't be like breakingnews to have a news story up that turns out to be totally false. Like the night a couple of months back that Fenlon had resigned from Shels straight after the match at 9:45, but then by 10:15 he was still Shels manager :rolleyes:

Maybe John Gill was calling for a Joe Maxi...?

Lads, Are ye sure this isn't our esteemed Minister for Foreign Affairs, Dermot Ahearn??? Apparently he was "outraged" about Monday's events. In his role, you'd think maybe Sellafield, Northern Ireland or rendition flights in and out of Shannon might merit a bit of outrage? But 'NO' - there's an election next year and he wanted the Oriel supporters to know where he stood (usually with the prawn sandwich brigade lads;) )
This is the same muppet whom our revered Taoiseach sent to London to investigate corrupt party colleagues, and who found (you guessed it) NOTHING! Subsequently, the guy he was investigating and whose shoes he now fills (more karma) went to jail.
I wouldn't worry about not getting into the premier league if I was him. He was always in a league of his own:rolleyes:

Seriously though, fair play to Giller for talking the madman out of there but surely himself and to a lesser extent Dermot Ahern should take some responsibility for this. After all Giller was ranting and raving on national media, Ahern was "outraged" and yet both of them were 100% wrong in their assertions. Can't blame the fans for following this up.
Apologies for the semi-serious post, back to the pish taking....

Some laugh if it was the fella from the late late show, hijacking the Dundalk bandwagon !
John Delaney, you're a censor, you and Oscar Wilde, you're a pair of arse-holes, you're a SHíT
Brendan O'Connor was unavailable for comment, possibly because his mascara melted when Maxi lit his lighter

what about joeraki? He was Maxi all along!
It was Tony O'Donoghue in disguise.

Apparently Delaney saved the day by convening an emergency meeting of the IAG to consider Maxi's protest. It was rejected on the grounds that his petrol wasn't of the requisite quality. They did give him a couple of matches, but both turned out to be pointless.
Pictures just in of John Delaney effigy...

Giller and Ahern were talking through their respective backsides, Giller in particular was spouting absolute nonsense. Obviously sane fans knew this but we're talking about Dundalk here. ;)

they had the recording of maxi on the radio there he was saying that "the people from galway united rang his club to say it was a farce"
then he said "do ye want to see something?" to which all the journalists replied no! no! they thought he was going to light himself.
Bizarre stuff!

I can picture it being just like the stoning in the Life of Brian where the guy goes "Are there any women here...!?!"
Coicidentally, I was thinking the other day that there'd be plenty of material to hold a Comedy Revue of the Eircom League at the end of every season. This incident would just be the icing on the explosive cake....

Yeah, the residents of a small co. louth town north of Drogheda keep taking them all, they specialised this season at leaving grounds early to gather ammunition for throwing at opposing fans as they leave the ground!! Second time round they had improved their tactics considerably, must be a decent school so!

It escaped from the town center in Westport and has been taken into custody. It's being held under the 'offenses against real Christmas trees act' of 1939. When asked to respond to said charges, it opined that it just wanted to branch out into different area's of the Country and the charges of treeson were false and that the truth, in due course, wood come out. The co-conspirator in this case , however, has admitted that he was just there to holly Byrne.

After the incident, staff opened the windows of the building to allow..... fumes to escape.
