not to mention the pilgrimages made by those poor working class fans to places like cardiff and paris

It was a long 10 years from the inception of the competition to them finally realizing their life long dream.

Oisin falling off the horse should be the horsey sport nomination.

Or that time Kieran Fallon and Aidan O Brien snorted all those rails off the hookers in France.

Beating England in the Cricket in 2011 ?

Would you fuck off

Ineligible.

Houghten x2 or David O’Leary.

Be a Soccer man or not, they were easily the most unifying moments.

Personally i felt

  1. Goal v. Romania
  2. Goal v. Italy
  3. Goal v. England

This is about moments.

I believe the goal v. England will get the Rastoolers up and at them. However i don’t believe the whole country had fully bought in by that Euros. They were onboard for 90 and it was full bandwagon for 94

Ireland v England in the Euro 92 Qualifiers in Wembley is often overlooked, but we fucking bossed them that night and should in truth have came away with a famous win. McGrath was outstanding, yet again. It was one of my more enjoyable times watching our national team. To concede an own goal after only 9 minutes, and come back the way we did, as a teenager after 88 and 90, you felt this could go on forever.

Quinns finish was sublime. Houghtons finish still haunts. We had the cunts, and they knew it.

A bad night to start this show as it will clash in part with Ireland’s play off.

The horse won, Cian was merely the superfluous bollocks on the back of it.
