Its already on the ireland section.
Maybe discuss the Eircom league issues in this one and the Irish National Team issues in the other forum.
I was aware of that yeah. But this is about the EL part, that's why I mentioned it. Some EL fans don't have any interest in Ireland national team so wouldn't see it there.Quote:

I mostly definitely would be an outspoken critic of Delaney, not always fair at times, called it reactionary if you want, but i have to say he definitely held his own against the guy who interviewed him (who was it anyway?) and while its good that the interviewer doesn't shy away for the important questions that need to be asked, there definitely seemed to be a degree of badgering or goading in the style, even dismissive of the responses at times which helped devalue the interview itself.
There is a long way to go for the association and the league, there is no doubt about that, and i have always said that its the FAI that got us into this situation in the first place so its no harm they get us out of it.
Depends. According to the figures maintained here, we're looking at being up from 1,070 to 1,235 - a 15.4% increase. However, there are official figures reported to the FAI too. I doubt those are any higher though - if anything, clubs would have over reported crowds last year in fear of the IAG.Quote:
