    it's the closet city to Dublin,

    Yes, there is a lot Liverpool won't admit to :p.

    To be honest I'm glad the entire thing is over for a few months at least. To everthing a season but soccer has become nauseating in it's ubiquity.

    "Soccer" is the football equivalent of "rugger"

    and we all know how annoying the people who repeatedly call it "rugger" are!

    Don't get me started on that stupid game. To anyone out there who thinks 'rugger' is a superior game all I'm gonna say is you can use your hands you bunch of queers!
    Is it a coincedence that rugger rhymes with bugger?

    I've been looking at some uk soccer forums...and there are discussions about irish soccer fans supporting english teams...the english soccer fans think its HILARIOUS, they sneer the fact that an irish league exists, here's one savoury quote...

    "It does when there is no Premiership on renners. For 98% of Irish soccer fans football is Man U and liverpool. Last night was CL final. the barstools of Dublin were full of red shirted Irish supporting a club founded by an Orangeman and who never played irish catholics until the '70s against a club from catholic Italy. try to work it out yourself renners but I think its called glory hunting. I've lived in Ireland for the past 18 months and I'd say Man u alone have 20 times as many supporters as the Irish clubs put together"

    Heres another...

    "Gaelic Football is massively popular in Ireland. Thats how its managed to build the only modern stadium in Ireland.

    But who gives a toss about Gaelic football outside Ireland? Who had actually heard of Croake park before the disastrous Irish involvement in the attempted Euro 2004 bid?

    When France or Germany play in Ireland do you think their media will say 'well this stadiums a dump, but at least Gaelic footballs done OK for itself'.
    Im just having a laugh at their expense."

    Go have a look at some english soccer forums...you'll find plenty of bigoted , prejudice comments toward irish soccer fans, gaelic football, the irish league etc etc... at the end of the day to be a PROPER supporter you should support the team that is closest to your home...it's all about grassroots! Sorry couldnt let it rest. Wind it up, stir the pot, Im just waiting for it... LOL. :rolleyes:

    Where do I start?
    You support the team thats closet to your heart fionna, it has nothing to do with locality. I live round the corner from Richmond Pk. but I ain't wasting my time going to see them.
    Did you see Shelbourne vs Cork the other night? It was quite possibly the worst match i've ever seen, and those two are top of the league? They cant even play football, not even string a decent move together so what does that say about The eircom league?
    Maybe if the government actually pumped some money into the FAI instead of GAA we could advance as a domestic league. Football is the most popular sport in Ireland but Gaelic should be given precedence as its part of our beautiful culture and history.
    Who cares what they say about us as Irish fans, the only thing that matters is that the republic would beat their international team in a match and they know this.
    People want quality Fionna, quality football to watch and imitate.
    Your right that it is a sorry state of affairs that noone supports league of Ireland but you cant blame them. 3rd division football in the english league is superior to irish 'premier' league.
    Let the English fans say what they want. at the end of the they(cliche) we kicked them out of our country and they've been pissed every since!!!!!

    I know this argument has no coherence whatsoever but its cause ive been studying all day and im tired so my apologises for the proletarian respone. I'm beginning to sound like I support Rovers.....
