I'm sure there'll be plenty of crisp, attacking football.
'Fascists dress in black and go round telling people what to do, where as priests.....'
Good press release. Nice crisp delivery.

It's a terrible name but sure if it gives them a few quid extra sure why not. I'm sure there wasn't many companies banging down the door to sponsor it.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Drogs fans will be satisfied now that everything's going to be all right.
You can't spell failure without FAI
More prawn cocktail than prawn sandwiches in Drogheda then.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.

New blog if anyone's interested - http://loihistory.wordpress.com/
LOI section on balls.ie - http://balls.ie/league-of-ireland/
like someone on our site mentioned, they should have gone all out and called it the hunky dorys bowl!
we looked from Montrose to Swords, from swords to Montrose and from Montrose to Swords again but already it was impossible to spot UCDs right winger
its great news for Drogs that Hunky Dory's arent meanies when it comes to sponsorship.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Stadiums named after sponsors is already normality here in Germany. Remember the Signal-Iduna Park (Westfalenstadion Dortmund), HSH-Nordbank Arena (Volksparkstadion Hamburg), DKB Arena (Ostseestadion Rostock) etc... I hate it, actually. It kills tradition. There are already a lot of young football fans who have forgotten the traditional names of the stadiums. Best example: A HSV fan told recently a radio station that he thinks the original name of the Hamburg Stadium would be AOL Arena. You have to know that the Volksparkstadion called AOL Arena some years ago. Because of such things I don't like sponsor names for stadiums. But in fairness this is just my German point of view.
On the other side it's always good if there is anyone who bring money into the LOI and the clubs. Football is all about money. And if the League of Ireland want to improve it just needs money, money & money.
An excellent way of bringing home the (smokey) bacon.
