Haven't met anyone off here yet!!
Don't think I really want to reading the storys from the meet ups..... :rolleyes: There are a few odd and very scary characters about here as well :eek:
I think I'll be keeping my real Identity a secret ;) for a while anyway!!
Only by your hair...Quote:

Met most of the Longford fans at some stage
Got a cheap rail ticket off Schumi after a question on here (think he was happy he off loaded a one way ticket to Longford for a tenner as well :) )
Met some of the homeless folk through Nightdub
I honestly don't know Gerrit, Bowie fan maybe, Ziggy Stardust? Nah, that was 1970s. He was very popular though with everybody and was a normal everyday bloke - just liked the bit of eyeliner, lipstick etc. Good luck to him. Maybe he was a Bauhaus fan, weren't they the first real Goth group and gigging in the early 80s????Quote:

Definitely Marty's most annoying trait is calling people by their web handle the whole time. Doesn't bother me, as it's my nickname, but know it's annoyed others that would prefer to keep a lower profile in real life :DQuote:

Mind you, I think Cosmo is the new JC...
Has anyone had a serious argument when they met? :mad:Quote:

I'm getting mentioned here a disturbing number of times! Met a good few of the Cork and Longford guys and one or two Derry guys as well as people mentioned here already.
Hadn't noticed that he had any (although I was a little tipsy!) but I don't think anyone else would have! :eek:Quote:

It had the helpful side-effect that I don't remember too much about the game. :DQuote:

Gerret & Sir H, if it was the 80's maybe the guy was into The Cure (if it was just eyeliner). Im sure that would explain his popularity with the lady-folk.
Ive met a few from Cork, who I would have happily ignored otherwise and the odd one or two elsewhere. I think I would have known the UCD guys (or atleast Aberdeen Stu & Schumi) anyway, so maybe that fits in with the "Oh, I didnt know you were on foot.ie too" question.
We had 10 ish at the irish fanzine meeting a few weeks ago and will hopefully have another meeting in the next week or 2 so maybe we will beat that number :)
Peader accosted me in Hampden at the friendly against Scotland a few years back with the words
"A Derry fan in Hampden, you wouldn't be Maribor would ye?" :D
I have met a few posters from each club at some stage or another, like Macy met more when I was living in Dublin and inhabiting JW's site
Gees everyone seems to have met Peadar!!Quote:

Then we started meeting people in real life and had to explain that we were only joking. Actually met a load of people at the Ireland U21 game in Nijmegen.
You make it sound like something sinister! :(Quote:

Students, Cork and the Pats lads. Couple of Bohs and Rovers heads.
Vetern of one MB game and BillyG completely done me... never forget it.
Probably know more of the others than I do the Town fans these days. It helps them stay down and behave the way they do...
I'm probably the one who hates Marty calling me by my web handle more than anyone.
And just to add, just so she doesn't give grief ;).... I'm going out with Sinead and I'm sure it isn't me she taught how to kiss.... :p
Started off as an addict but I'm much more calmer now, only let loose when ****ed (off).....
Bring back the message board game.
Users I most like to meet are SLK, Colm and Aface. Just to put a person behind the name. Oh and Macy to odd time for a home game!
I was there and seen that guy aswell... Im the Rooney lad!!!! ;)Quote:
