2008 F.A.I. Cup final thread.

Yada yada yada. It was a great game played in a great atmosphere and both sets of fans were, for the most part, gracious in both defeat and victory. End of.

This is getting scarily like some sort of IrishLeagueForums thread.......

Lock it now.

As an aside re the crowds - one thing that surprised me.

At one point during the game I looked over to the Bohs section of the Grandstand, and every single fan in sight was sitting down. I then looked around the Derry side and every fan in sight was standing up. I looked over at the Anglesea, and the situation seemed to be the same over there.

At 3 other times during the game I made a point of doing this comparison again, and the situation was the same - every Bohs fan sitting, every City fan standing.

Says a lot.

If i pay 25 euro for a ticket and want to sit down and watch a match then thats what ill do, If you want to pay 25 euro and stand then so be it! Cup finals are won on the pitch, not by the amount of people who are standing at the game. The fact you actually made it your business 3 TIMES during the game to see how many where standing and how many weren't is pathetic! My seat was right beside the derry fans in the grandstand and they where great craic and a credit to there club, pity there's people like you to p**s and moan about something completely irrelevant to the outcome of the game!

........lo and behold the 100,000 Derry fans had all left. That's not to take away from the Derry fans though, the drum banging, GAA jerseys and Santa suits really showed you for the bell-ends you are.

Ha ha ha ha!

That is funny.
