Oddly enough, Dalymount is even worse now than it was then.

Wonder is that available on-line somewhere. Very well made drama.
I remember the scene in Dalymount alright

On the new episode of Moone Boy on Sky1 tonight, fairly sure I saw a clip of a few Shamrock Rovers lads doing the dieing fly in celebration at Italia '90.

Went to see "The Food Guide To Love" at JDIFF tonight, romcom filmed in Dublin. Includes a scene where Richard Coyle and his dad watch a Shams/Bray game on the telly.

So thats why 20,000 turned up to the RDS that season, just a confused bunch who saw some hooped jerseys walking to Donnybrook and recognised them from the TV and followed them to eh paradise...

You could well be right. I could have been wearing my LOI glasses. Bit like beer goggles except many times more depressing.

It only aired there about two weeks ago.

Thought it was against Harps, it will learn him to be in a sh*t soap

To bump an old thread..

During commentary of Chelsea v Schalke tonight, Finn Harps were mentioned apparently three times during the course of the game. Mentioned the 12-1 defeat to Derby County in Europe in the 70's, to which Niall Quinn mentioned something about 'my friends up in Donegal'.
