There would be a few more straight hand salutes if it were indeed Shams on the road.

Rovers got one result and you'd swear they were revolutionary to Irish soccer. Get over yourselves. Every bog has its day. You had yours. And that's all it was - a day.

aww, did the bold man hurt your feelings?


Your right we did get one result, a result that most top teams in europe would be more the happy with. And BTW , we've had plenty of great days over the past 3 years, something Shels have not. Try to see past your obvious bitterness and give credit were its due. My hatred of other clubs generally lasts for about 90+ minutes a week, you my friend seem to carry it around with you everyday.Sad.

By labelling the entire population of an area slow witted.

They'll be really offended once they eventually work it out.

Yep, standing outside LOI grounds with plastic buckets collecting coins is a far classier method of fund raising than having concerts - ask shams that have not just jumped on the bandwagon about it I'm sure they will recall.

Besides shouldn't that be rent a tent ? Sorry thinking of another club :)

Obviously never heard of the Marquee events in Cork each summer ? Marlay Park ? long history of top (and some not so top:)) class music in a tent in Ireland and much without a tent (its called open air)
besides, last years concert was in the Olympia and this years was in Vicar Street :rolleyes: Excellent method of fundraising and tremendous work by those involved.

Fund raising (of various means) is a familar event for most/all LOI fans and anyone assosiated with a club here, although I would not expect the glory, glory band wagon brigade to be too familiar with that
