Our Fans in a Nutshell:

**Lim till i die** · 30/04/2008, 12:35 PM

This will probably start a row I've no intention of continuing with but here goes anyway:

Last night there was two groups of Limerick fans at the game, one in the Derrynane and one in the St. Annes.

Mid way through the first half Ross Cosgrove made an absolutely ludicrous dive on the edge of the city area and was rightly booked for it.

The lads in the St. Annes told Rossi in no uncertain terms to cop himself on.

The lads in the Derrynane abused the ref.

Discuss....

Same lads abusing the ref the same as the ones who sing the Umpa Lumpa song at 6'4 Nazi poster boy refs?

I'd leave the young fellas away with it to be honest, we were all like that at some stage, the older section should have watched enough games by now to have more cop on though in fairness

The very same.

That along with the Birdie Song are both ruined classics

Our fans in a nutshell:

About 20 Limerick fans present, yet they still managed to divide into two groups.

So did you find out if you were gay or just obnoxious?

And to stoke the fires a little once more I don't see the point in watching the game with people who abuse the ref because Ross Cosgrove dives badly right in front of the man. What was he supposed to do. Give Ross a wink and ignore it?

Or who fail to understand that the Birdie Song was to be saved for the last few minutes of games when you're one goal up.

Or who sing 'get into them, they're easy' when we're being outclassed.

Or who persist what that 'you're sit aaaaaaaaaggggghhh' when the opposition goalkeeper kicks the ball out.

Or who had a love in with Paul McGee last year when every dog in the street knew that the man was simply waiting for the ship to start sinking before he did his rat routine.

Or who barracked Kevin Waters, a player who always gave 100% in a Limerick shirt, in the RSC.

I don't think I'm a better fan than those people, I don't think they're a better fan than me. We support the same club and I'm glad that they're there. But if there are two groups of support there that's because there are two distinct groups of people there. It's hardly the end of the world either way. Most clubs with any kind of support tend to experience a schism of sorts anyway, if anything this proves that we've moved to the next level.
