How about " Tribal Tirades".
Anyway, best of luck next season.
Looks like the standard of the division might rise

. You's could well be the team to beat next season.

**sniffa** · 13/12/2005, 12:06 AM

And while we're at it...." Tribal Diatribes" or even " Diatribes Tribal".

Didnt we used to have one called "tribal bible"? Maybe the gang involved with that could give you anything they have left and it could once more rise from the ashes ??

Why did the "Tribal Bible" stop?

and the adventures of "Conan Roleman"

After 4 issues we decided to take a break,it was pretty time consuming & we just didnt get around to startin again! But dont worry galwaygirl im sure with the return of murphy "The Extremely Hot Spicy Cocktails" could be convinced to do an exclusive interview for the new fanzine!

tell me what you think... dont mind the pics

If you're interested, this months When Saturday Comes, the definite English football fans journal has some great pieces about the heyday of football fanzines. There are a number of very useful articles that may be of interest. Well worth purchasing from O'Briens.

I remember those glory days of the fanzine and as a GUFC fanatic at the time used to collect them all. O'Briens was great for that kind of stuff. Still have a full set of Standing Room Only (SRO) as well as various Rovers, Bohs, Cork City and others. I guess the arrival of the internet killed them off. SRO wasn't far off the best in terms of content either...

Portadown's Better Red the Dead is the only one on this island that has kept going since the glory days of fanzines as far as I know.

Check out their site http://www.brtd.co.uk/
