Could just post the article instead of making us click things



My own version 10 season tickets @average €130 dont pay for kids , away games are more drinking sessions and so ticket price doesnt really count the game is just the excuse really. use Student or Social card in Tolka , when bohs get their money will do same there

Our cup runs are famously shortlives so about 2k for me

Irish TD (that's Member of Parliament to you) Barry Andrews has declared that profits are now clearly ahead of sport at Man Utd and it would be unacceptable if Irish parents are under pressure to pay for increased ticket prices and even more merchandising.
"I fear that if ticket prices were to increase, this form of entertainment will once more be denied," said the Fianna Fail politician from the city that's home to League of Ireland sides Shamrock Rovers, Shelbourne, St Patrick's Athletic, Dublin City, UCD and Bohemians.

Love it! What a tool!

Yes wouldnt it be crippling for irish sport if Bohs, shels, rovers and pats were like manchester united. Thank god St. Pats put "football ahead of profit" and I get to watch them play in a glorified cattle shed.

Sunderland are putting their beloved supporters from Oireland, with which the club has links going back, oh, at least eight years, ahead of everything else.

That sounds cheap
A West Ham fan who has written three 'Fever Pitch'-style books, reckons he spent £5k (including tickets, travel, beer, food, time off work) following football when he went to every first-team match, in a season where Hammers failed to reach the QF of either Cup and weren't in Europe either...
That means it'd be only twenty years to rack up £100k :eek:

And that's from doing it from within the same country! :eek: You must have t have REALLY liked someone's jersey as a kid to do something similar from over the water!!
