Good luck with that. Madness to have the game competing with the Barstoolers' ultimate wet dream: Man U v Celtic in the Champions' League.
The half-and-half scarf brigade will be out in full force, trying to decide which one of "their" teams to cheer for*....Quote:

Getting back to your point, the barstool brigade wouldn't come out to watch an EL XI anyway regardless of what was on the box. They'd be in watching Plymouth v Doncaster in the Warm Sloppy Ale Cup or some overweight hasbeens pathetically trudging around a pitch ("Legends" I believe they call it)..
Lost 2-1, Belgians scored in the last minute.
I reckon over 1000 at this one. Bizarre "Kids attacking mascots" antics a feature.
Good goal for Belgium for the winner. A LOAD of kids at the game.
Aye,Quote:

Ireland battered them first half, Belgians were better in the second. They scored first, we equalised and then they blasted on in from about 25 yards for the winner.
Kenna got sent off with about 7 minutes to go.
Oh dear I hope our mascot is ok?? and I mean the costume not the person altho I hope he is ok too!Quote:

I didn't actually see the Sligo one but it was announced at half time that mascots were there from Sligo, Bohemians and Monaghan Utd..
What is it with that Monaghan mascot and conceding goals in the last minute of injury time?! :mad:
Most entertaining part of the evening for me was seeing that costume, holy god where did ye get it. The Bohs fella had his Denis the Menace head taken off but i think football head survived.Quote:

I was sitting just behind where he was standing in the second half. It was probably the funniest thing I've seen this year. There he was, in his fun getup, one hand on the barrier,one hand behind his back watching the game quite intently I might add.. Not really cheering, not getting the crows or kids involved, just standing, observing if you will. Every now and again he folded his arms but it was mainly the one hand on barrier, one and behind his back pose.Quote:

Just off the phone with our mascot and he loved it! Apart from the Dundalk game here he hadnt done it before and now feels a lot more confident and enjoyed the craic with the other 2 mascots.
As long as he doesn't get a big head..Quote:
