btw I hope shels get knocked out in 1st round of CL this season. Shels progress last season has done nothing for CCFC or the rest of the eL. Shels got tv & media coverage not the league. Rivalry is part of football i couldn't care less who wishes CCFC the best or not in games.
I guess Pete, we don't think your significiant enough to waste our hate on :)
LOL, class quote! :D :DQuote:

Well 'don't care' has just got its second vote from me :rolleyes:

Where is the "None of the above" option?
Even with Linfield as the other option 40% of people won't support Shels. I'm sure numbers would be much greater if Glentoran were in the final. :eek:
I have no interest in sectarianism in football. I think Linfield manager David Jeffrey has been the personality of the Setanta Cup so far.
You expecting trouble from Shels fan Ultan....? :confused:Quote:

I wish I was as sure as you about this. The Garda don't have a great track record when it comes to crowd control and I'd be concerned about goings on away from the ground bth.Quote:

No, but I think other football fans, from certain eL regulars to the pride of the Seltic barstoolers, would. My post came from remarks here which seem to suggest the main reason for wanting $hels to win is down to the bigoted and unrurely element of the Linfield fans, as if they were the only team with that particular type of following...Quote:

Shels gaurenteed Longford and yourselves got seeded last season and the amount of matches shown on TV after the European run, including a Cork one, was alot down to the interest Shels created. The league benefitted alot from what Shelbourne did.Quote:

I would've supported Cork City or Longford had they reached the final against an IL side as I'd sooner see the money go to an eL club.
That has to be one of the worst posts ever??Quote:

I take it Pete you will be calling for cork to be put into the UNSEEDED pot for the 1st round draw? .... The fact you will now get at least 4 games in europe has nothing to do with Shels :mad:
Do you want UEFA's number so you can take your spot in the unseeded half?
