Jesus do you idiots really believe someone has blocked access to the forum because we got knocked out of the league cup?

Dont' be silly - it's because you got knocked out of the Setanta Cup, FAI Cup, Champions League, championship race and then the League Cup.

Nah, Gareth wouldn't do such a thing, it's not in his nature. As for certain other parties...hmmm.

Not even I could do that.

I have it on mp3 - along with a lot of other eL commentary (including footage of all 5 goals from the tie when we played Rosenborg in the CL - with Norwegian commentary)

Just a case of going back over it tbh.

(Now I CAN actually quote the original Bjorge Lillelein commentary from 1981 without need for reference)

Yeah we could no longer take the incredible, cutting verbal abuse and supreme wit from yourself Bohsfan(s) so the entire website got closed down. Nothing to do with the problems it's had from day one since it was moved and they tried to add some picture gallery thing, it was all you.

There's been problems with it over the last few days, randomly being down for a bit it seems. Read the news explanation, it explains all.

After all, you'll all still have a go when its back up anyways, perhaps more so, so taking it down on purpose would have been thick!

Don't forget the time a couple of weeks back when he conveniently "forgot" to put the result of the loss to Cork on the site.

Favouring instead, to crow about the Under-18's winning a game against shamrock Rovers

**Dodge** · 23/08/2005, 9:08 AM

Those who Fintan hasn't banned obviously...

Think its a bit amateurish of Shels official site to have a remotely hosted free MB tbh...

The news report went up a day late, the result was up instantly

Though that you pay such close attention to our website and when the reports go up says alot. No doubt a thread was opened on gypsieweb about the whole thing.

I wouldn't advise it, the poor bloke must be upset enough as it is.

**Sheridan** · 23/08/2005, 9:27 AM

Seriously though, I get the impression that some of Fenlon's remarkably sanguine (until a few weeks ago) recent public pronouncements have been for internal (i.e. Ollie's consumption.) It's not necessarily the prospect of a barren season, so much as the direct line of culpability which can be traced right back to Fenlon's tactics and selection policy, which might occasion him such anxiety.

I can see him walking the plank of his own volition before the year's out.

Yeah - we had 237 threads opened on the subject (which co-incidentally is the average number of fans you take "away" for Dublin Derby games)

But of course - you surely must know that - seeing as you visit the forum on a regular basis.

Lads - I've got 20 tins of white emulsion I don't need anymore - anyone looking to whitewash a fence, a wall, or a season at all?

Well there must have been some thread opened given you know about the controversial incident of the slightly late match report. Frankly I'd be suprised and mildly disappointed if there wasn't.

And I do visit the forum on a regular basis, easily the funniest website on the internet and with it around the downtime on the Shels forum is simply not noticeable at all. It is pure gold.

Chat Problems

Our chat server is down.

Recently I moved the Chatboard and Gallery to a new server. Since then I have experienced problem after problem with the hosting company. To this end I will be moving to a new company once Chat is back online.

For any techies out there, the problem this time is due to the main harddrive dying resulting in service outage. I hope that our new home for the Chat will be more reliable.

I'll keep you up to date with events as they happen.

translation:

We're out of EVERYTHING. Ollie's biscuit tin has a hole in it. Everyone hates us. Some people have to look at themselves in the mirror. Its all their fault. Eamon is Buster Bloodvessel. S.O.S. Save our Shelbourne!.....in other news we won some p�xy u21 game - FULL REPORT now online!

great days.

I hereby solemnly promise never ever ever EVER again to say "UCD contribute nothing to the League." Cutting the final brake-cable on this rapidly-accelerating trainwreck of a season for Shels is one hell of a contribution!

Just seen this advert in the newspaper:

FOR SALE

Not needed anymore - all in sealed bottles

Contact: Mr O. Byrne, Tolka Park, Dublin 3

I don't believe you though!

Would be better served if he sold them to you so that you can clean the muck off the Cup before you hand it back.

I will hold you to that after our next dull 0-0 draw in Belfield!
