    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Wonder what Kerr's Tribe, Eiro06, Babysis, etc. make of that - or did they just not get a mention?

    And what did it say? Did it just list off a few of the chants or did it attempt some sort of story around them?

    no effort at a story at all,it just listed about 6 or seven chants that you would hear.........like "never walk in alone in athlone" type stuff.

    it was like they cherrypicked a thread from here.

    Putting herald in same sentence as the hillsbrough liars - now that's a severe lack of class. Are you smart enough to read Irish papers, and forgetting that junior soccer wouldn't be the same without the coverage it's given over the years. get a grip...

    The new “hip” football supplement is called Left Foot. Aingela Flannery writes at least one of the articles in it every week, she usually writes for womens magazines. Says it all really.

    Fair point about the Junior Soccer and they're not in the same league as The Scum for sure but they are both badly written rags (sorry if ye work for em or something)

    P.S. Come on...Do you really think you have to smart 'smart enough' to read any of Ireland's press?
