    Surprisingly short odds there though it's probably just scabby bookmakers I suppose.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    3/1 on Paddypowers Celtic to overcome Barca.

    Close though.
    On the way into the stadium, an elderly San Marino Steward waved us in and said "Tonight, may the best team win"

    And they nearly did.

    25/1 Shamrock Rovers to play a competitive game in Tallaght Stadium in 2008
    f that wording is directly from Ladbrokes, ancd the word "competitive" hasn't been specified, Rovers (and every other team) should bet 100,000 grand on it and then set up the inaugural "Tallaght Cup", featuring Rovers and one other team, which play 1 game.

    It's competitive.


    16/1 A date to be announced for the amalgamation of the Irish League and the League of Ireland
    IFA and FAI bet 100,000 each on it, then announce a date for the amalgamation of the leagues.

    Collect the money, then announce a few months later that the plans have been canceled.

    Thought that too. 25/1 for an Irish club to reach the group stages of the CL. Ridiculous.
    I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.

    In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.
