There are more then one Rugby match, so its putting seats in, taking them out remarking the pitch twice etc. etc. as for the Croke Park issue, was/ will a formal application be made???
I assume not as there's no point.Quote:

Damn straight. Wear an Ireland jersey to an Ireland match. Keep the Celtic one at home for your armchair.Quote:

The Evening Hearld, aren't the the crowd who have to give away their paper every now and again.
AND I agree with everything Peadar has said here
I was at the Cyprus game and the fans gave it socks and the team were a disgrace.They didnt deserve support after that performance.I was embarrased going back to the resort.Cypriots were the better team.And as for Don Given the man has to go.I met a few of the under 21s on friday night i wont mention names but they have no respect for him at all.Why should they with the team they have they got 5 points and a brutal display on friday.The players i talked to were apologetic to us.
:rolleyes: I'll think you'll find it does.:cool:Quote:

Had this game not been played in a decent stadium under the auspices of the World Cup qualifying programme it might have enlivened a Sunday morning in the Phoenix Park. We might have paused and watched for a while, grinning at the comic ineptitude of the defending. Then we would have walked on to see what was happening elsewhere. http://www.ireland.com/newspaper/spo...S1SOCTOMM.html
Yeah its dead right there was plenty of celtic jerseys in the crowd. No disgrace though.Quote:
