    I get ads for those all the time for Dortmund, the German National Team and the Philadelphia Eagles. As far as I can tell those shirts are print on demand and the ads you get are based on your facebook likes.

    Fitting they'd be generic products right down to the way they're made.

    Bit time football - often like watching paint dry!
    The ball is round and has many surprises.

    A pub in Longford last night was fully decked out inside and out with Liverpool flags, banners, jerseys hanging from the roof, you name it. A big sign in the pub saying home of the Longford Liverpool kopites.

    No they'd rather use the tag line of no locals while they roar on their beloved pool in a Coutinho jersey.

    I think the power brokers within Irish soccer have really missed the boat in the last few years especially ! It now looks unlikely grounds will ever be even half full but the FaI should be targeting social media in all it's forms,as that's where kids interact with foreign teams as well as the tv.I have often wondered if all so called football fans bought a LoI club jersey,what a difference that would actually make to clubs. Also,clubs in conjunction with the FaI could run a weekly or monthly competition,with different prizes

    Totally agree with you, this attitude of wel throw a poster up and people will come is the worst attitude I've ever seen. Bar a very small handful of clubs no one makes an effort with social media

    Was down the pub last night watching the match. Two lads started talking about how ****e we were midway through the first half - which in fairness was the only sensible thing they said to each other.

    The solution was to do what the IRFU did. Four provinces, playing abroad. It's the only way. Leinster FC in the Premiership - sure they'd watch that. I mean, Bray Wanderers is all well and good, but there's only a few hundred people at the games, and what's the point of that? Anyway, once you get to that level, you won't be going any further. Leinster in the Premiership is the solution.


    Anyways, both had left by the time Shane Long (whose career stalled irreparably after playing for Cork) set up Stephen Ward (who never went anywhere after four whole years at Bohs) for the Ireland goal.

    Follow what the rugby guys done/did seems to be the solution. Anyone around Galway for the last few months will confirm this. "The European Bandwagon Capital"

    In fairness, I still think Limerick has that mantel. I think it's great that Connacht are doing what they are doing. Why begrudge?

    Watching Ireland games in pubs is a painful experience. I hate it.

    I can't watch football in busy pubs, at all. It's an incredibly mental experience.

    Considering Connacht were only getting 3000 at games at the start of the season and nearly 8000 by the end of it & could of easily got over 10k if they had the ground, that's a pretty big bandwagon.

    I agree though, what they've done is fantastic but when their star players leave and there back to being average the crowds will dwindle again and the Galway sporting public will all be GAA fans again if they can manage a SF/Final appearance.

    Why not a successful Galway Utd?

    Surely the underlining point here is that there is a large sports following in Galway who crave sporting success?

    If Galway United were to make the FAI cup final they'd get a big crowd going. But building a consistent crowd in the city is difficult, perhaps because there are so many from outside the city living here.
