Article in today's star about Ollie's plans to charge Bohs fans 30 in to tomorrow night's game. Apart from the total unworkableness of it (and yeha its a real word!) it just shows what the Mr. "For the integrity of the game" actually thinks about the league as a whole...
Why is he charging this ?? .... what are his reasons ?? Are Shels going to do a Drogs on it now ??
dealt with already

2 days of talks between the clubs, Gardai and the league, shels have relented in their bid to charge visiting fans 30.
However shels are resisting the directive to put bohs fans in the riverside and want to accomdate them in the ballybough end
so basically a non story concocted by ollie to wind up bohs fans and get a decent gate?
and let's face it, it's not exactly hard to wind up fans of the big pub, is it?Quote:

I want to tell you a fairy story....
There once was a small and weedy warrior with a mighty keyboard. He was a man who was astounded by his own cleverness. He loved the way he could tie his opponents up into knots with his witticisms and bon mot. If anybody tried to argue with him then, likedy-split, he would post a passage of such eloquence and with such mellifluous smilies that his opponent would be biting his own elbows in frustration. Then he would laugh to himself all day as he congratulated himself on being the best wind-up merchant in the land.
Then one day Corxey, for that was his name, asked his magic mirror.
"Mirror Mirror on the wall, who is the greatest wind-up merchant of them all?"
And the mirror thought for a while and said.
"Not you anyway, you're crap at it."
And Corxey was outraged
"What do you mean I'm a crap wind-up merchant. I have it in my signature for God's sake."
But the wise old mirror replied...
"All you do is repeat the same insults over and over again without variance or relent, put a few smilies in, and make sure you always reply to a thread. You might get one poor fool answering you but everybody else thinks you are tiresome. A wind-up has to show some cleverness, it needs to be inventive and take in more than one person to be considered any good at all. Even the people who see through it will say nothing as they consider it art and love the feeling of intelligence it gives them to enjoy the secret while others are taken in."
And Corxey was sad.
"But, I'm not smart enough to come up with such a thing"
And the mirror said
"I know you're not, so why don't you concentrate on your job instead. Those burgers aren't going to flip themselves you know."
And they all lived happily ever after.
Good stuffQuote:

Another pathetic Ollie-ism, but thanks for the compliment anyway. :D
See you tomorrow night. ;)
I predict this will be how the conversation goes in the week before all future games at Tolka:
Quote:
Ollie: Now you attended Tolka Park twice already this season?
Visiting Fan: That's right, and we paid you 15 each time.
Ollie: Well, that was under our old price structure. Under our new price structure, your bill comes to a total of 600. Now you've already paid me 30, so that's just 570 more that you owe me.
Visiting Fan: Get off our property!
i know Shels and ollie byrne get away with just about everything........but surely this wont happen?
It wont, and it couldn't happen even if he wanted it to happen, it would simply be impossible to implement.
merged
I doubt saying they are going to charge 30 euro into the game is going to make the gate better !?!Quote:
