Well ladies and gentlemen we have another contender for finest ever League of Ireland interview as Joe Gamble gave one of the strangest post match utterances I've ever heard. Was this a slip of the tongue or some bizarre Corkism?
It's got to be up there with Ridden Rock Solid and the Stuey Byrne title winning tirade.
I LOVE THIS LEAGUE :)
I haven't a clue what he's trying to say. Is he saying they were so good that they "raped" football as others would say?
it was a strange one alright. he was not a happy man during the interview!
I thought he said that but didn't want to comment in case he said something else and it raised a whole lot of other issues of why I imagined him saying it. :eek:Quote:

Didn't he also say that anyone who knows anything about football will know that Linfield didn't win the game? Can we expect Cork to take this up with FIFA and be allowed into the final on the basis that they would have won on points if football was judged like boxing:confused:
Just sounds a bit bitter to me. Understandably so but there's still a limit you know. He could at least be a bit more gracious in defeat.Quote:

Yeah, I had to play back the Sky+ a few times to make sure I heard it right!Quote:

What? That even though Linfield won the match they shouldn't be in the final?!Quote:

Typical Cork whinging, I saw one of the foot.ie regulars on the TV a few times, no doubt he's coming up with an excuse... One that could be used is "The players were confused by the different speed limits/traffic light systems on the way up to the match"
Gamble should realise these things happen.
Liverpool played Man Utd off the park the whole match then O'Shea came up with the winner.
It was exactly what happened last night. And that is the difference between a good team and a championship winning team.
If you have any ambitions of winning the league, you have to be able to win ugly and Linfield did just that.
Yeah but he should have some balls and get on with it. Instead of whinging on national telly.Quote:

It's a bit of a shambles alright giving the man of the match award to someone who just gave away the winning goal. I'd say Gamble felt like hopping the stupid trophy off Milo's permed barnet.Quote:

DJ's not a happy man.
Didnt see interview but saw him goading the Drogheda fans after scoring up there. Lacks a bit of class and cop on there.

Nah, will never happen.Quote:
