Bit of vinegar would sort that sand issue out.
The salty tears of our vanquished opponents more like.
I thought it looked in good nick Saturday night and will only get better as the season goes on. Its a sight Jinxy when our 'cabbage patch' is in better nick than your carpet in Oriel!!
Yeah but what flavours of crisps do ya have?
And are the minerals cadet or coca cola?
Why are you Dundalk boys fascinated with minerals and crisps??!!! I have to say ye have lost me on that one!
Assuming you are serious...One of the most pressing issues with the Longford fans and the away section in Oriel was the lack of sweet shop to buy crisps and coke, not the view or lack of toilets but having no Tayto on sale sacandalised us. Take a look in to the Dundalk pitch thread.
I checked out out that thread and the first mention of crisps was from a Rovers fan. Now if there was a gripe over crisps and minerals from Town fans, I can assure you I was not one of them. Therefore anytime I comment on here about Oriels pitch all the Dundalk fans (Nesta, I don't think you're one of them!) retaliate with crisps and minerals comments which have nothing got to do with me. In fact I have to say I get a good laugh out of them posting up that tripe. Off the top of my head, what I said about Oriel was, the pitch was crap, 1/4 of the pitch is non existant because of the stand cutting it out and also that there was no shop. No mention of crisps or minerals!! And just to let those funny boys know, I'm not a big fan of crisps and I don't drink fizzy drinks.......so I definately wasn't upset over the lack of those at Oriel Park!
now enough of the crisps and minerals debate and let's get the thread back on track :cool:
It was Martinho that was missing his crisps and minerals I believe! Can we have a Dundalk crisps and minerals thread as well?
Oh I should of known it was Marty! ;)
You won't like him when he's hungry.
They've stopped putting a burger van over the home side in the CCS since Marty started working nights and weekends.
Crisps and minerals will now be the standard response to all moaning from Longford fans so you'll see it quite a bit! An awful noisy bunch since getting back to the big time!
We'll look forward to it Mcgonigle! You won't see us getting upset over it like ye do over your precious sheet of plastic :cool:
Bit like people rustling crisp packets in a cinema?
Come on lads its all tongue in cheek (getting at the stuck chewed crisp gunk no doubt). We aint that precious about our pitch as some seem to think. I know we got our very own thread about it but only cause it a broken record from pundits rather than fans its has to be said. The pitch is muck, no pun intended. Its here to stay for at least the remainder of this season and damn all we can do about it. As I mentioned in the other thread, and my only defence of the Oriel pitch is that other pitches are hardly Wembley. Some people feel that a poor grass pitch is better than our surface I happen to feel that a bad pitch is a bad pitch no matter what - dodgey bounces, turning on ankles in divots, bare in patches, too sandy or rubbery, and so on so bar the divots feck all difference in complaints. Cant wait for the current pitch to go so as it cant be rolled out as reason for influencing results. This same damn pitch is the reason for the poor sight lines from both terraces on the stand side as when the new pitch went in it was moved closer to the stand, I presume to make room for future development Hiney Park side. This totally f*cked up the views Carrick Rd side and even caused the need for additional floodlighting to be installed under the canopy of the stand as the stand itself cast a shadow from the main floodlights which their focus was also now off with the pitch moved. For those that dont remember there was the width of a running track from the perimeter wall to the start of the grass area previous. Anyhow crisp jibes and being offered a snickers to moany posts will probably continue but no doubt will the magic carpet stuff too. We are an affible bunch that can laugh at ourselves, no better example than Queen tunes being played by our rather eccentric PA announcer 2013 for which we could do nothing but laugh ourselves. Its all a bit of fun on a football forum and anyone who gets a nose out of joint by anything said here well think of Waterford, Harps, Bray, Shels, Athlone, Sligo...it could be a whole lot worse :p
Should have Should have not should of - mistaken phonetically for should've, short for should have....I need a snickers pity we're not playing Longford and I'd have access to a sweet shop. Maybe thats why Shamrock Rovers fans are so troublesome in Dundalk, they are just hungry for crisps and coke after their day out in Bridge Streets' finest places of libation?!
Fecking hell nesta chill out sir!
I didn't realise I was in English class. I should have known Nesta would slap me on the wrists for my bad grammar. Their...no that's not write or right? ...They're was a.....there was a time when lads could get away with the odd slip up on here! I have a habit of typing the way I speak. Sher is sher really a word? And what about ye and yer? Nesta, help me out here, I'm cracking up!
From the outside looking in, does this video reflect longfords fans not having access to crisps?

Some dundalk fans definitely are. Good example of that a few days ago when ElPietro pointed out to another poster that their assertion about Dundalk's home performances was incorrect. Cue a handful of posters in 'defence mods' about the pitch when it was completely unwarranted.
