I don't think the reason that SOME of the City fans wanted Shels to get hammered tonight was because we want to beat them on Saturday because what you say about there being things to our advantage if they lose but also if they win is true...However, I think the real reason SOME of the City fans
(aswell as fans from other EL clubs) wanted to see shels lose was because of the money they will get for progressing...They would surely dominate the league for years if thats the case and it would be unfair on the other teams!!!
how is it unfair to do well and be rewarded for it. they all more or less started on the same level. shels took a few chances and moved forward. cork aren't that far behind. I don't think you're just picking on shels I just reckon any team that made the step up first would get abuse for it.I don't think the reason that SOME of the City fans wanted Shels to get hammered tonight was because we want to beat them on Saturday because what you say about there being things to our advantage if they lose but also if they win is true...However, I think the real reason SOME of the City fans

shels arent going to dominate anything without 10,000 odd people in the stands ever week. if they do get into the group stages they will have to be ultra careful with their cash because there will be times they either don't win the league or get beat in qualifiers.
as a result they can't go and buy **** loads of players on expensive contacts as they have no guarantee of income.
all I see are a lot of jealous fans who wish it was their club getting close to the group stages.
i remember someone on this sit posting a few weeks back that it would be 20 years before an irish team made the group stages - it might be a few more but it wont be 20.
begrudery of the highest, nastiest order.
Great to be right,eh corner.
Did ya enjoy the smilies.
fair play shells. was thinking how bad a draw it was for shells when it seemed delighted drawing a big name.when you look at the other teams in 3rd round there are plenty they could have beat. although i wouldnt be shocked if they still go through. by frustrating them in front of home crowd - i can see it now going to penalties
Eskimos pussys are very cold.......
Penalties would be the job but Depor would win them easily,Ireland verus Spain at World Cup 2002 brings back pain full memories.
Shels should frustrate the sh!te out of the balloxs and then grab the vital away goal with 10 minutes to go.
Ah.... if Carslberg only did CL Qualifiers.
Have to admit, last nights match made great TV. Perhaps it was just me
because there was an eL team was involved, but I haven't seem such
nailbiting stuff on TV since City played Waterford last season.
I think that I've come to realise that it's like watching England, you want to
see them lose so that there's an end to the smugness, but not just yet
much better if they get much further and then lose. Although with Shels
you can't win with that argument. England expect to win, Shels shouldn't
(if you go by the script) still be in it.
At least if they get through to the next round I'll get another few exciting nights of not wanting them to win (or, for that matter, lose).
At least they'll make a few bob and improve the flood defences at Tolka!
I must admit id hat if it went to penos i sat thru the ireland spanish game in korea and it was too nerve wrecking
I'd take penalties now if ya offered em to me.50-50 chance of winning,pure luck(or lack of practice for the english national team
Once they don't get hammered 4 or 5 nil so the begrudgers and EL haters can say ''they were jammy to get that far''.
Would you support Spain against Ireland if there was a manager or a captain or a few players that ou disliked? It's the same story, you're basically supporting Spain against Ireland, your country, your people, your team. You're a small-minded, parochial idiot. I'll support Cork or Bohs or even Rovers to the World Club Cup final, and then still scream my head off for them to lose against Shels the next Friday. It's not about petty jealousies or made-up **** that you hate about rivals, this is supporting your countrymen, supporting Ireland on the World Stage. Putting local fueds ahead of it is sad and is what has Ireland and the EL in the state it is, though thankfully we're pulling ourselves out, no thanks to people like you.
sums it all up really...
Plastic Paddy, Davros, A Face,
excuse my first 25 posts, thats not what I'm really
like.
its only half timeGreat to be right,eh corner.
Did ya enjoy the smilies.
who do u support
Dolanswaistecoat supports city but as city are not in european football he supports shels
so he supports city and shels
nice combination
That's what i was thinking too. Its good for the league and i love that they did well against a massive European team(i even enjoyed the match) but there is still that little cringe when they score. I think the only way to know for certain if i want them to win or not is to have a good few pints before watching the game(im always honest when im drink
At least if they get through to the next round I'll get another few exciting nights of not wanting them to win (or, for that matter, lose)
Har de har har.so he supports city and shels
nice combination
I support ANY EL team when it comes to playing against other european opposition.You should try it,nice feeling when your fellow loi teams do well in europe IMO.Most other EL fans got behind city during our european run as well,in case ya didn't know.
0-0 at half time for shels,so far so good.I reckon WE can do it.
good post D Wnice feeling when your fellow loi teams do well in europe IMO.Most other EL fans got behind city during our european run as well,in case ya didn't know.
do you know i did'nt hear a single person that did'nt want city to go through against nantes.
people were very supportive alright
for city when we were in europe but besides the odd one or two people i reckon most people in cork were shouting for shels
you must know more than me then!
