Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
Funny thing is, d f x , I dealt with Olly a couple of times in my football days and found him very helpful. I even sent him a letter from the shower I was involved with supporting some Shels project he was developing - I think he was looking for lottery money. He also asked for a list of Dublin schools so that Shels could work in that area to strengthen their links there - great idea.Originally Posted by d f x-
He was also helpful to the likes of Athlone and Beeslow getting English clubs over for pre-season friendlies so fair's fair.
I wish, though, he wouldn't lose the head and get himself in trouble with fans, clubs, ex-boxers etc. He doesn't need to.
But all that work is tarnished by both his actions and his subsequent reputation - you can't expect to be 'allowed' or condoned what he has done just because of the amount of help you offer someone else..![]()
But anyway, there's not much point in deliberating Olly's good and bad points again...

Yeah agreed d f x - maybe I'm just a big softy but while I cannot condone him acting the maggot , he has done a lot of good as well and, you're right, there's no point in going over it again - it'll only get the Corky Boys** started and they're a like a dog with a bone when they get going on Shels.Originally Posted by d f x-
I never meant to convey the impression that I was condoning his misbehaviour by praising his good deeds. I just wanted to let you know my personal experiences of him, that's all. Sorry about that.

I was hanging around drumcondra from just after 6 having a few cans of the good dutchy gold stuff and there wasn't a hint of trouble. Was talking to a few glentoran fans who were spot on. They were a totally different crowd to the linfield fans, though they were singing 'F**k the pope and the IRA', though no problems with that, you'd expect it.
According to the craptown mb their supports bus got attacked going through craptown
DAN CONNOR HATES CITY, HE HATES LANGERS
" I even sent him a letter from the shower"
ah thats just not right
The fans in the stadium were all well behaved. On the exit of the Gelntoran fans, the crowd appluaded them and they applauded back. I walked up Gracepark road with lots of Glens fans around and they were fine. As their buses past us, they honked the horn and waved and clapped us as we passed and we did likewise back.
We any number of people going to a game, someone will say something to the wrong person and a scuffle will start. Fvck the papers and radio if they think it worth highlighting when it could be as easy ignored?
Newstalk don't exactly check facts as they'd read any old text out on live radio.
What does that mean?Originally Posted by CollegeTillIDie
Trouble outside tolka? Well if there was anybody wearing any green and white hooped jersies then it has to be Rovers fans. But methinks oily the criminal has learnt his lesson from last time when there were no arrests at the setanta cup final despite his ongoing protestations.
KOH
I got there about 7 and there were plenty of Glentoran fans around singing (couldn't make much of it out though) but no trouble at all.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Yeah the windows got bricked.Originally Posted by Cosmo
