The foot.ie community FAQ

**liam88** · 20/05/2005, 2:46 PM

As we know there's a pretty strong community on here with dicussions, meet-ups etc. so I was just wondering some things-feel free to add question; i'll start it off.....

>Has anybody ever met their girlfriend/boyfriend through foot.ie?

>What was the biggest ever meet up off foot.ie memebers?

>Has anyone ever spoken to someone on here they knew in real life but did not realise?

I believe there's been several, and several breakups too, although I'll leave it to themselves to names names...

>What was the biggest ever meet up off foot.ie memebers?

There was a fair few of us out one night after the "Foot.ie Challenge Cup", but I'm guessing the one in London had more.

>Has anyone ever spoken to someone on here they knew in real life but did not realise?

Happens to me all the time, but then there is that whole Cult of Personality thing. Perhaps I should start plastering my face all over the site? Big Brother Is Watching YOU.

ah yeah, remember that one well, me the captain picking up the winners trophy and celebrating with my team mates, before leaving the pub seconds later claiming i had tonsilitis and stealing the cup.

but i left everyone with memories of my silky skills which unlocked the Mod's defence and sweetly hit volleys from the left hand side off the pitch in off the cross bar....

Ok we're talking organised meet ups not "happened to be at the same game"

-we had 9 in Soho at Christmas if your only counting registered memebers who were physically there....had about the same number for Celtic vs Fulham

I've met people on away trips where they've said, "are you Peadar from foot.ie?" When I say, "yes", they say, I always read it but never registered or, I don't post very often.
Still a bit scary though when people "recognise" you.

ya id say that happens you a lot alright

has there honestly been people who have met eachother, i mean the dublin term met here. like gone out etc.??

people generally do view for months before they register or know people off the site but dont register for whatever reason.

i spose some people must go out to places where there are guranteed foot.ie persons and wonder, hmmm i wonder if thats so and so, and hten they hear the loud and obnoxious one and think oooh that must be peadar!

No, not recognise me from my photo.
When I say my name is Peadar they, don't know of many others so they take a chance that I'm the the guy from foot.ie
