Give him a break...seems a reasonable, honest request.

Bad news though...they're like the proverbial hens teeth. Good luck.

I don't think slagging off Munster rugby does us any favours.

There is a strong rugby tradition in Limerick and they are incredibly successful. However they have always been more than helpful to senior football in the city. Thomond Park has always been available for big cup matches, european games and friendlies. I've no doubt it will be in the future too.

Furthermore when we are successful again we'll have a lot of bandwaggon jumpers too.

I used to think so as well, until they all sold the AIL down the river so they could pretend they've all supported a team that wasn't there all their lives.

Irish people, we deserve the looks we got off our British neighbours when it comes to supporting teams

[QUOTE=harpin;1061520]AIL Clubs were bigger than Munster

what's the difference between boh's,shannon.y.munster et al producing players,those players being signed to academy contracts etc. with munster.
and limerick taking players up to play "A" football,under 20 league etc. from junior clubs.
what ever about AIL clubs being bigger that munster.
listen 20 odd years ago you couldn't swing a cat in thomond park at a munster senior cup match....along came the AIL and blew that comp. out of the water...it's called progression kid...get used to it!!!!!

Yes but you still had a big following of the likes of Shannon, Munsters etc., now it's completely on its a*se. I was at Charity Cup Finals between Thomond and Marys that attracted more crowds than the interpros

Progression pah..no nowts in Jester hats from Kilkenny and the likes

Don't call me kid..thanks chief

How many professional sports are there in this country then? Rugby and half the top tier of our football league basically. At that stage the figures involved are too small to be of any relevance.

Also at that stage how many 'successful' professional sports teams are there in Belgium (to choose one country with a far broader population base than ours)? Nothing with any recent international success comes to mind to me.

And given that rugby is played professionally in what, nine countries maybe, (and even then Ireland, Wales and Scotland couldn't muster a dozen proessional teams between them) how telling is that in terms of overall excellence and end product?

Bohemians could certainly claim to be a 'successful' sports club after a double also? And are Munster a 'club' or a heavily subsidised franchise?
