He was using Wicklow teams for examples.
What is this whole Shamrock Rovers/Wicklow thing about? I've heard it a couple of times now.
"The Fields" being sang last night at the end. Is that allowed if Ireland are winning or are we still sick to be associated with it?
to answer the OP question...no.
Any result the national team gets is hollow, meaningless.

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.
I support the national team, but my enthusiasm has dimmed somewhat, after being fairly fanatical for forty years or so. I'm just become moe and more aware that so many of the supporters are event junkies and barstoolers with no real interest in Irish football. Also, Trappatoni has really put me off...
It probably is just an easy way to vent the frustration I have when I go to an LOI game, and as you pass In the gate, someone goes by to the pub in a Utd jersey for the game? When they could be watching live football less than 100 yards from the pub. but that arguments a long debated one not worth getting into.
All I was saying above Is, we sounded like we were happy to be hammered. No matter who you're playing, wether it be Spain or Salthill, you want to win. Quite obviously, I don't want people ripping up seats. That's a ridiculous statement.
Yup, I support the national team, and probably care more about their results in general than about Unknowns (which is to say, quite a lot!).
Unfortunately, I've never had the money to see many international games live, going straight from being a poor student to being an emigrant, but I think the last competitive game of ours I didn't watch was probably at least five years ago.
