From your own posts and those made by others, that is obvious to me now. I always took "Exiles" to mean City supporters living in Dublin, plus other Cork people who might be persuaded to attend. I would never insult the people you and others describe. Ye are the back bone of City support, as far as I am concerned.
The people I asked the question about are the hundreds of first-timers, or seldom supporters, who I hope will support City on Friday. If they travel a distance to watch the match, they will probably go even if there is a blizzard. But as for the potential first-time Cork supporters who live in Dublin, will they be any different to those in Cork who wouldn't stir themselves off a bar stool to go to a match at the Cross, if the game is on telly?
That was my point, but mea culpa for annoying the sh!t out of so many people. I promise to hold the TIFO flag in the sh!ttiest weather as penance, ok?

Apology accepted.

I guess not everyone is aware that we the term 'exiles' in a more 'official'

manner to describe a very definite few faces who live in Dublin and try to meet up for the games.

You might want to take back that TIFO offer though, I'm looking out the window here at work and the weather is very very sh1tty

Not likely. That might make ME look like the bar stooler.

Thats fair enough, I see what you were saying, you can rest assure the regular Exiles will be there Friday, we might even give you a pair of gloves to keep your hands warm waving that Tifo flag
