QuoteIn fairness we have several witch-doctors, several of whom are UEFA-qualified weather manipulators.
That's just typical of the excuses for a lack of ambition you hear in this league. When the new league comes in next year no team without it's own weather machiene should be allowed in the premier. Some type of witch-doctor should be the minimum first division requirement.Originally Posted by Galway Harps

I've no problems with witch doctors and weather manipulators as long as the fixture manipulators stay away and ensure that the game is not played only on the second Tuesday of Lent in a leap year and give a special vip box to try and fit in all those ever moaning and complaining Hooped egos that we all have...

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.
Your pitch is already the maximum width. I measured it the other night.
Finn Harps definitely have no weather machine. However, the other three were never a problem.

You can't spell failure without FAI
That was Kildare's fault. And he is crap, drove me mad the last time we played down there.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Cant say that I disagree with the comment on the PA. Nobody has a clue what is being said. I think he must have trained as a station announcer for Iarnroad Eireann or something. We have offered to do it for the club, but this didnt go down too well....
As for the weather manipulation shaaman, I think that our one has only ever attained Leinster League Witch Doctoring qualifications. I cant see us bothering with getting anybody else in untill its actually contained in the Uefa licensing regulations
Agreed. He's nearly as bad as Pats' one, and worse than Bohs'.

I will be doing the PA at the Shamrock Rovers game....hope that they dont complain bout me! *Gulps nervously*
Don't try to whip up the crowd, or act excited. I've never seen a PA attempt either and achieve anything but get sworn at.
Make sure you're not holding the mike too close to your mouth.
Beyond that, people don't expect much from a PA.

Oh, and also, don't ask the visiting fans to be quiet for a minute so you can read the teams out.
She might have a problem with that.
Seriously magicme, you'll be fine. Just concentrate on what you are doing and speak clearly. Just be glad you're not from Dundalk! Oh, and don't forget to invite the Rovers fans in out of the rain.
Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
Ha ha....I do hope to use the classic line from our friendly with UCD.....
"there have been a multiplicty of substitutions" Brill!
Learned last year not to say that a footballer "is coming on the field"
The UCD PA is superb. Is he a classically trained actor?
Can we hire him for the nite??? *gets more and more nervous as days go by*
Yeah? and what did he do to upset you?
You'll be judged as fairly as everyone else on the following:
Hear-ability,
Diction,
Clarity,
Accent,
Decibel level,
Handling of any half time frivolities (or lack thereof)
Avoiding mentioning "Could Rovers fans please stay back 2 hours after the match" - the downfall of many a PA
The delivery of the odd comment such as to the effect of "it's our policy not to mention accrediting og's"
All shall be marked out of 7.35 individually with 7.35 being Rovers' shining beacon PA and 0.0 being Kildare's with an overall mark and an (un)official general performance report submitted for future reference.
No need to be worried, we'll only be listening to anything you utter afterall
