Looking out at the p1ssing rain tonight, I felt like reliving the atmosphere of that brilliant evening in July when we had "the first victory by an Irish soccer team against a Dutch XI on Irish soil". (Irish Times)Quote:

Eoin Hand was still the manager but I can't remember if it was the 1980 Euro qualifiers or the 1982 World Cup Qualifying campaign (when we also memorably beat an amazing French side 3-2 at Lansdowne Road). Well I'm off for my afternoon nap now!
thought we won that dutch game 3-2..or was it a draw...ah my brain is frazzled at the mo...guinness can't be good for ya...
