Charlie O'Connor TD is a Rovers fan as is Maureen O'Hara. Dermot Morgan RIP was a Hoop too.
Ken Doherty's first Rovers game was against Fram in the UEFA Cup in 1982.

was dermott morgan not a ucd fan - certainly seen him at belfield on a number of occasions at ucd-drogs matchesQuote:

Morgan was definitely a UCD fan
Kerr worked in UCD as a lab technician, but he's definitely a Pat's man.
Dave Fanning is a UCD fan. Jimmy Magee is often at games too. He said Belfield is his favourite ground.
Meaney is (a fairly big one too), Farrell's not (just because his Da played for you)
Loads here jsut saying random people who were at one or two games...
Oh and I forgot Con Houlihan for Pats. Love the chapter in his book about us.
I doubt you'll see her at the Brandywell any time soon, haven't you recently signed her ex-boyfriend?Quote:
- I'd love to believe that Nadine Coyle is a fan of the club
Tiernan is definately the funniest comic around.Quote:

Well one day when Mocrac are one of Irelands most famous bands Dublin City's ex support will be able to mention their famous fellow fan.
Aint that right Maynard??
irony definedQuote:

Tom Humphries is fond of the odd mention of his Bohsness. I've never seen him at a match.
There is a theory that he has been staying away from Dalymount, and indulging in an orgy of GAA, as part of an extremely subtle and sophisticated Farrelly Out protest.
Think he went there for his leaving cert (Tiernan) because he did so badly in his inter/got thrown out of St. Pats in Navan depending on which story is correct. At any rate he's great.Quote:

John Brutal was at some of our Euro games in the double year wearing a Bohs scarf.
Chris Kamara ;) is a proud bohs fan too! :D
LOL at the Derry and Harps fans fighting over Dana. :D
RTE Radio host Des Cahill, TD Liz McManus, TV3 Sports Presenter Dave Kelly, Phil Coulter can also be seen at a lot of our matches. Damien Duff as someone mentioned earlier.
Also any time Paul McShane, Darren Randolph, James and Kevin O'Connor, Clive Clarke, Barry Roche, Graham Ward and Paul Heffernan are back from from England they can be seen down in the Carlisle.
Shelbourne's very own Jason Byrne is also a very big bray supporter and is down there when ever he gets a chance.
Politicians don't count - they'd go to the opening of an envelope if it got their face in front of enough of a crowd.
Martin King. Definately seen him at a few games for the Bohs although not too many recently. Surprise, surprise. I've not seen to many people (full stop) at Dalyer recently!Quote:

And Dermot Morgan was a regular Hoop long before UCD were even a glint in the League's eye. Then there's the usual suspects - Maureen O'Hara, Colm Meaney and of course Rats from Paths to Freedom.
KOH
Anyway Rovers fans in general are famous.
Or should that be INFAMOUS?
:p
Aslan!!!
True enough but her and the ex-husband (if stories are to believed !) are down quite a bit and have done over the years....

That's as maybe but Jimmy is a nailed on Hoop and speaking of RTÉ's sports department - Con Murphy, Stephen Alkin and the legendary Phillip Green (and White) are all Hoops too.Quote:

Man Utd's John O'Shea attends Blues games occasionally (although he's more into the hurling). He was also one of a 300 strong Blues contingent in the Des Kelly stand for the crucial relegation-decider in Dalyer last November.
Several of the Waterford hurlers go to some of our home games - Dan Shanahan, John Mullane. Paul Flynn used to play for us.
ROFL :pQuote:

Fanning is a UCD fan, he's always going on about us on the radio. He was slagging some Rovers fan on Monday or Tuesday. He's regularly at games in Belfield too.Quote:

Alkins is a Pats man. 100% on this. his brother goes to every game. Magee doesn't follow anybody but has said he has a soft spot for Pats because of his son playing for us (said it at some after dinner thing I was at a few years ago (not football releted). Agree Green was a legendQuote:

Isn't Fiona Looney of the Gerry Ryan show a big Rovers fat. Remember her mentioning it on many occasions.
Jimmy would appear in a Leni Riefenstahl film if he thought it'd get him on the telly and appearing in a Bohs production is on a par with the Nazis. ;)Quote:
