Jaysus,you're annoying me and I can't even hear you

[horney]

were you guys down the front with Mr. Arnold? Think I saw you telling that muppet to shut up

yeah me and galway brian

[Cowboy]

Yeah t'was u alright, you were dead right to tell that muppet to shut the fcuk up

[horney]

I take it that was you beside me then?

If it's the same incident as above, that was me giving out sh!te. He was lucky he didn't get slapped about...I think I should thank those who restrained me...!

To fill others in - about 20 of us were trying to get a bit of singing going when some ar$ehole in the next block (not as if we were blocking his view or anything) turns around and says "Will you shut the **** up", to a murmured consensus from a couple of others. I lost the rag a bit - obviously we didn't shut up, even started singing "Sh!t team Sh!t fans", and not at the opposition . At half-time, I had words again, but his sole response was "Shut up you *****", while some other gombeen started asking if my daddy paid for the trip (because I had the UCD scarf on) and started going through the usual UCD-taxpaying stuff (I'm a qualified accountant...). Got restrained again here as well.

The Ireland fans, by and large, were a disgrace. There were pockets of people willing to make an effort - and fair dues - but the ground was hopping before the match, yet when the teams come out, everyone sits down! There are far too many people who are happy to sit down and enjoy a leisurely game of football at these games. They don't mind the build-up, but once the game starts, they get on their moral high horses and give out to anyone and everyone. There were 11,000 Irish in the ground and hardly a tap. Utter disgrace.

i agree fair play

[horney]

just some clown that says all we can do is sing the originals with no slagging its obviously his first away game

[ccfcgirl]

I went to both games over in Cyprus and even though both games werent the best to look at .We made our own singing and banter.Met up with lads from the North and sang till our hearts were content .(I even thought them Kevin Doyle songs for when he dose play for Ireland )we even got on the star paper with a quote "fans remain optimisti despite one of Irelands worst team performances ever"......I got home on Thursday great trip .Very disappointing though when the pilot said it was a draw at Landsdown
