just a question, who wrote the article?
And what did it say? Did it just list off a few of the chants or did it attempt some sort of story around them?
Has foot.ie ever been mentioned in any so called ''reputable'' newspaper..?Cos The Scum and The Shambled are the worst feckin rags we got this counrty. Simply cannot read em they make me ill.
We got featured in the Sunday tribune in their 'back of the net' column a while back

it was like they cherrypicked a thread from here.
Putting herald in same sentence as the hillsbrough liars - now that's a severe lack of class. Are you smart enough to read Irish papers, and forgetting that junior soccer wouldn't be the same without the coverage it's given over the years. get a grip...
The new “hip” football supplement is called Left Foot. Aingela Flannery writes at least one of the articles in it every week, she usually writes for womens magazines. Says it all really.
Think we got a mention in the Independent a few weeks back in the In Off The Post section on saturday

Fair point about the Junior Soccer and they're not in the same league as The Scum for sure but they are both badly written rags (sorry if ye work for em or something)Quote:

Yes but he said a reputable newspaper. The Irish Times has a deservedly sh1t reputation in EL fan circles cause they have bugger all coverage of the League in real terms.Quote:

Becuase of this one comment yer one wrote in giving out awful stick about what was cleary an innocent use of alliteration. It's people who react like this that make me hate this whole PC crap we have to put up with in societyQuote:

the thread about Paul McGrath on primetime is in today's sun
Here...This guy from the Sun is getting loads of press out of the combined knowledge from this thread...I reckon its one of their journalists James McNamara possibly. Why not show your face if your if your registered on here?
