[quote=“tallback, post: 767187, member: 1158”]Yep. I’m a Leinster fan to be honest and I’ve had some tough times over the years with Munster lads getting stuck in about “Leinster Ladyboys” etc. It’s been a bit easier since we got our revenge in 2009 though.
I understand what you’re saying about the bandwagon nature of some of the support - but every successful team gets that - you’d get some contrast every year with lads looking for all-ireland tickets for their counties big day out v’s the no at a league game in Feb. Munster supporters got a bit too carried away with the “Passion” and “Honesty” craic but to be honest I’ve assumed that was just a Munster-culchie thing as you get similar guff out of Cork lads re being the Rebel county, “blood and bandage”, Kerry being the Kingdom and soul of football, Clare and the curse etc, etc.[/quote]
tough times? huh?
Aoibhinn Ni Shuileabhain ( who I think used to be Ryan Tubridy’s lack) has an hour long radio slot on RTE 1 on Sunday mornings.
This morning she gave the hour over to a little known rugby game from 1978. Apparently a team of doctors, accountants, bin men and itinerants from Limerick and Cork beat a travelling rugby team from New Zealand. I vaguely remember hearing about this years ago but some of the younger lads here may not be aware of it and might want to catch the show on the Player.
