Does football mean more to these fans than everyone else?
I was thinking back to the "Bray Wall" incident and when Bohs and Rovers have played in Terryland recently.
When they've scored some of their fans have run on to the pitch.
Is this because it means more to them than other fans?
Yes it is. I'm a useless puppet and ape what they do.
No, it means they have no self-control or they're too daft to realise you don't run onto the pitch everytime a goal is scored.Quote:

If you were in Limerick for the shels goal at the end you might think it means more to us than other clubs but it wouldnt neccessarily be true. Every set of supporters care about their team. They dont all express it in the same way.Quote:

Explains why there's so few LoI fans. Small pool to begin with, huge casualty figures.Quote:

nearly as enjoyable as the victory
Feel free buddy. When you're not unwittingly mocking yourself with your own answers, that is...... :)Quote:
