Anyone know what that 'partnership' involved ?Quote:

I remember Rovers had a Maltese international with them a couple of years ago so maybe they got him from them:confused:
The nicknames are "The Greens" and "The Irish", the first for obvious reasons, the second because the Royal Dublin Fusiliers were based in Floriana and gave them a set of kit, which was green and white, and such was the friendship that they said they'd always play in them.Quote:

While googling this I found that Roddy had a Maltese player while at Carlisle. Wonder if there's any connection between that and this job?
Roddy to live and work in Malta.
Won't be going there on my holidays now:(
No, and you probably won't be going to Sunderland either since the great Irish Messiah quit ! Ipswich is it then? ;)Quote:

he'll have to get louis copeland to fly the suits / big long brown coats out to him...:D
He is a huge loss, he spoke his mind, Bohs do play such boring football and hes come out time and time again saying this and slating Fenlon for this. He also had great things to say about Dundalk and always argued with some of the other clowns(Rico) on MNS re the artificial surface at Oriel, he was in favour of it and said its keeping the club going which it is. He also told Mickey Daly to not join Fingal and to come to us! And hes been one of our best players to date.
A large part of the problem, I often found.Quote:
