Munster Rugby - We DID start the fire (Part 2)

Didn’t seem to get a lookin since the legal issues. Got about 10 seconds against Crusaders when around 20 players were unavailable.

The latter

He’d be lucky to be on 25k id say

It’s a miserable existence for most at that level, just hanging on in the hope one of the bigger sides spot you.

Better than working i suppose but fellas clinging onto an unrealistic dream alright

Good man. I’m surprised Munster fans even bother with the later stages of the competition, it’s not like you feature and are just making up the numbers.

Out of interest, what do you do when Ireland play? Hope they lose because 12 or 13 of the team are from Leinster?

Why does it bother Leinster fans so much everybody wants them to lose?

It doesn’t bother me exactly, I’m more wondering why. And not everyone wants us to lose. There are plenty of Munster fans and fans from other provinces who aren’t bitter and jealous of our success while they have to look on.

Yup i wonder how many if the same iphone he can sell in the Midlands

Well not only low pay but if the next cheque actually comes in the door

No I’d cheer wholeheartedly for the same players. Same as I do with the cork hurlers whose clubs I wouldn’t be overly fond of

You’d see a lot of rangers fans cheering on Celtic or man united fans cheering on Man City in games.

It’s most unusual this gripe Leinster have over not getting nationwide support.

They are so easy to dislike.

There wasn’t many Leinster fans cheering for Munster when we were at the top either ffs :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Oil jellyfish wouldn’t remember that tho

Cullen referenced it too in the build up to the La Rochelle quarter final.

I found it very strange.

I used to cheer on Munster in the 2000s when they were doing well and was actually at the 2006 final and wore red for the day.

Things seem to gotten a bit out of hand in recent years.

You were a rare exception so because I lived in Dublin for over a decade and there was massive seethe from any Leinster fans I knew

I was at the 2000, 2002 and 2006 finals supporting Munster. I found it got out of hand about 2005/2006 when Munster fans were sowing it into Leinster with the ladyboys stuff, 2006 semi etc. Worm turned in 2009 and fairly tetchy for a couple of years. Fell off then when there wasn’t much contest in it but back a bit again now.

I don’t have an issue with Munster fans not supporting Leinster - do what you want. It gets a bit weird when it’s looking to actively provoke a reaction though.

That’s an interesting point you make there. I was at the 2006 final with a mate of mine and we actually got a fair bit of grief, lads coming over asking us where we were from, apparently we were keeping tickets from real fans etc. Can’t say we were too impressed.

Everyone wants Munster to lose as well. And Ulster.
