Internet fanzine of a couple of years back. Domain appears to have been reclaimed.

Was probably the best Eircom League website at the time.

Yeah, me too. And now the bould Dan is writing the Indo single-handed, and I'm still working in a crappy warehouse.

Jealous? Me?

It's a shame the genesis reporter at internationals only lasted a few issues, it did a similar job.

I've just read through some of the articles - a lot are very, very good - especially Peter Goulding's 'Travelling Without Moving' piece.

When was the last issue submitted?

**harpskid** · 09/11/2006, 7:41 PM

That was a quality piece of the internet in its day - great to see Dan McDonnell is still doing well for himself though: A top bloke!

Bumped into him in a nightclub in Tallinn after the second lot of Bohs - Levadia matches a few years back.

Had a great long chat about the good old days of Johnny Ward's Message Forum and Hospital Pass

Must be over 2 years ago now

It ended in early 2003 I'd say, just when we were starting to really get it working well. We had 2 or 3 great issues in a row, then work, college, technical problems etc got in the way, and it died a death.

Young McDonnell's done alright for himself since, and well deserved, he's earned it. Maybe some day he'll pen an article in the Indo detailing exactly what happened in that night club in Tallinn, from what i recall its a good story ;-)

Once he doesn't include the bit about myself and the patio chairs I'm sure it will be a fine piece of journalism.
