**James** · 09/09/2001, 9:09 PM

bout 30 of us I'd say, ablely assisted by 3 Longford town fans we borrowed for the night

overall crowd maybe 2,000 ish

Eventhough it didn't seem like it on the night 2000 wasn't a bad crowd at all considering the "other match" on across the city.

Saying that was feck all atmosphere at the game.

Rebel - you really should've known better than bringing your bike - it was probably gone before you even got into the ground. How funny those little junkie scumbags are - esp. when they can't even stand up cos of cheap cider.

One of the Longford Three.

Macy,
Was "taken" during my post-match pint. The local guards have ensured me they know the suspects & will "follow up" on the theft. I think i'll pay a visit to Kevin St garda station in a couple of weeks & spot my bike or one that looks like mine

BTW did you sign the petition that guy who claimed "me da is John Gilligan....." was carrying around.
