A lot of teams try any means possible to cause hassle Pats knew well that that the kits clashed and by not having a second Galway were forced to change. I remember a game where we played Cork away and John Stacey forced us to wear Corks Away Strip.
Galway only took one strip to Cork for the live TV game and it was really hard to tell the teams apart on tv
Last season Cobh forgot their entire kit in Dundalk & had to wear our away strip against us. Was very funny.
Interesting to see Osam now say Pats or Drogs would win the league after he been saying for two years that Derry City would win...

So what did Keely really say?Keely was saying, how when he went up to manage you all the fans were on his back straight away. Also that you're a self praising bunch of Brits and should go back to the Irish League because you're play is on a par with Limavady and Ballymena.
He didn't. Ozo launched into that Steelers' Wheel song "Stuck In The Middle With You":
There's something going wrong around here
What it is ain't exactly clear
and Keely just chipped in with the high-pitched "ee-ee-ee-ee" chorusy bit. Then they both chanted "Dodgy keeper" over the replays.![]()
Revenge for 2002
Absolute ****e as per usual. Only showed the goals from Bohs Rovers. Quite an entertaining game imho, better than anything else that was on.
And on a personal note how come they showed Rovers every week last yr and not us this yr?
Do Shels video the game and provide the tape to TV3?

We do, as far as I know. There's certainly someone with a camera in the press box most of the time.
However, there have been a few break-ins in the ground lately, and one report said TV equipment was completely destroyed (don't know anything about the specifics, but I assume it's not the camera, but whatever's in the press box for the camera man to use on the day), which would explain it. Local scumbags did several grand's worth of damage, robbed out training gear and did other stuff, and when they were caught by security, they couldn't be convicted because they were underage and not caught on CCTV.
So you're suggesting that to reduce embarrassing incidents in the league, Galway should have refused to play a match because their opponents didn't bring an away kit?
So the league is less of an embarrassment when a team is forced to wear the opposition's kit?
What happened wasn't ideal, but it seems to have been the best course of action.
It's hardly "unfair" to have to wear your away kit.
