    And the GAA.

    There are few things as smug as the belief some of the LoI supporters have about themselves and the true football 'integrity' they show by supporting their local club.

    It's like they've created a romantic vision of themselves standing on the terrace, keeping it real from the forces of Sky Sports and the GAA. All pie, pint and lambswool coat. Like a one dimensional working class character from a 1970's Ken Loach movie.

    Bit of a throwback to when people could drive home after a feed of pints to a meal slathered in gravy and a timid, terrified wife. I reckon such creatures will be extinct in about 20 years.

    Not saying I agree with Walrus exactly, but yours is the worst type of "discussion" on boards.

    The smiles on their faces. How many of them will be in a galvanised hut next Friday night cheering on their local LoI team? None, becuase they're not real fans of football.

    That was taken at the Andorra match, not exactly a bandwagoner's away trip. To answer your question, at least 3.

    His silly post doesn't deserve me going into great detail on why it's a silly post plus it's after hours.

    I think the best costumes for a match I was at was Bohs v Waterford in Waterford for the EA Sports Cup in 2009. Loads of the Bohs fans dressed up, there was a ridiculous amount of costumes. Including one brave man who wore a mankini.
