10 euro hes part of their "travel club" :rolleyes: hope he gets Delaney all the same though :D
Apprently it's John "Jesús" Gill. You know that junket to San Marino all the league managers are going on? Well someone told Gill the only seat left was on the same flight as the foot.ie Ireland international forum members trip. :eek:
no messin, it was on newstalk this guy seemed to be known to John Gill who referred to him as "Maxi".
Maxi was then brought away in a squad car not a taxi !
I think he is angry he did not get the Promotions position & is trying to prove he can get publicity for the league. Next week he will be threatening to jump off Liberty Hall.
Ireland.com
gotta love this thread! nearly wetting myself here!
they just had a recording of part of his "statement" on the news all I could make out was "it was a farce" in a heavy Louth accent then somebody shouting "maxi" probably John Gill

Gardai investigate incident at FAI headquarters
Gardai are at the scene following an incident at FAI headquarters in Merrion Square in Dublin.
An eyewitness told ireland.com that a man had entered the building and had doused himself in petrol and was threatening to set himself alight.
A banner has also been tied to the railings outside the headquarters purporting to be from Dundalk Football Club supporters demanding answers to the decision by the FAI on Monday night to promote Galway United FC to the premier division in the club's place.
One side of Merrion Square has been sealed off and both gardai and the fire services are at the scene.
Makes me want to burn down the ITs new shiny HQ!!!
He's name is Maxi, well that's what John Gill was calling him.

Confirms that the guy is called Maxi McAllister
here he's a (former?) sponsor
Maxi McAllister, what a quality name, if anyone ever doubted that the eL and its fans are the Simpsons of European football, then there you go.
Mind you, it wouldn't be like breakingnews to have a news story up that turns out to be totally false. Like the night a couple of months back that Fenlon had resigned from Shels straight after the match at 9:45, but then by 10:15 he was still Shels manager :rolleyes:
Lads, Are ye sure this isn't our esteemed Minister for Foreign Affairs, Dermot Ahearn??? Apparently he was "outraged" about Monday's events. In his role, you'd think maybe Sellafield, Northern Ireland or rendition flights in and out of Shannon might merit a bit of outrage? But 'NO' - there's an election next year and he wanted the Oriel supporters to know where he stood (usually with the prawn sandwich brigade lads;) )
This is the same muppet whom our revered Taoiseach sent to London to investigate corrupt party colleagues, and who found (you guessed it) NOTHING! Subsequently, the guy he was investigating and whose shoes he now fills (more karma) went to jail.
I wouldn't worry about not getting into the premier league if I was him. He was always in a league of his own:rolleyes:
Seriously though, fair play to Giller for talking the madman out of there but surely himself and to a lesser extent Dermot Ahern should take some responsibility for this. After all Giller was ranting and raving on national media, Ahern was "outraged" and yet both of them were 100% wrong in their assertions. Can't blame the fans for following this up.
Apologies for the semi-serious post, back to the pish taking....
KOH
Ah compliment for Giller :eek:
Get a grip will ya :rolleyes:Quote:

It was one so called fan, not fans, this is completely condemed by Dundalk fans, you just have to go over to our forum to see that, now stop stirring sh!tQuote:

what about joeraki? He was Maxi all along!
It was Tony O'Donoghue in disguise.
Apparently Delaney saved the day by convening an emergency meeting of the IAG to consider Maxi's protest. It was rejected on the grounds that his petrol wasn't of the requisite quality. They did give him a couple of matches, but both turned out to be pointless.
Pictures just in of John Delaney effigy...
Maxi
He looks a bit mad alright.
Quick, someone give Limerick their licence. They won't bother finding out where HQ is, they'll just nuke the capital.
Up next on the Right Hook, on newstalk "when football fans go too far"
Isnt Gerry McDERMOTT from Dundalk?
this is a well crafted PR stunt
and the new dawn starts with a bang!
Kudos
Kudos
I don't think Gill had anything to do with talking him out of there. I heard the Gardai chased him until he ran out of petrol.....
Apparently yer man McAllister is just an old flame of Delaney's.....
.
Only one person talking through their backsides here WAR, your full of SH!T
Well he must of gone to the Shamrock Rovers School of Football Holaganism for fans, hear their very full though, hard to get a placeQuote:
Obviously sane fans knew this but we're talking about Dundalk here. ;)
they had the recording of maxi on the radio there he was saying that "the people from galway united rang his club to say it was a farce"
then he said "do ye want to see something?" to which all the journalists replied no! no! they thought he was going to light himself.
Bizarre stuff!
to me.gill just happened to be there at a fans protest!!!????and he rode in and saved the day and then rode off into the sunset.:)
btw,"sheridan",excellent post.this whole thread has been so funny:) .
Comical !
I can picture it being just like the stoning in the Life of Brian where the guy goes "Are there any women here...!?!"
Coicidentally, I was thinking the other day that there'd be plenty of material to hold a Comedy Revue of the Eircom League at the end of every season. This incident would just be the icing on the explosive cake....
Sportsfile have pics up on their web site already, including one of 2 Gardaí carrying out the Christmas tree.:D
Is that a training course for putting in Halogen lamps? Or for using 3D hologram pictures?
After todays events and the last 2 times we were in oriel taking lectures from dundalk people is beautiful in its irony:D What's next? CHF fans slagging off Rovers owners? Oh wait.............
