Dogma is 25 years old today. An under appreciated gem
Jerry McCabe shot dead by the IRA on this day in 1996. One of the most shameful days in the history of the state.
Jerry was a good guy.
By pure chance I knew him well.

Things that make you feel old: it’s 30 years today since Jonah Lomu ran over Mike Catt like an Israeli tank runs over Palestinian children.

June 18th is peak World Cup and Euros traffic.
Ireland have played four times in major finals tournaments on this date.
There is only one other date on which Ireland have played a major finals tournament match more than once.
June 18th is my favourite major finals tournament date, featuring such key games as England v Paraguay 1986, Spain v Denmark 1986, Ireland v Holland 1988, Holland v Germany 1992, Ireland v Italy 1994, Romania v Colombia 1994, England v Holland 1996, South Korea v Italy 2002, Australia v Holland 2014, Spain v Chile 2014, Portugal v Austria 2016, England v Scotland 2021 and Turkey v Georgia 2024.

The forgotten World Cup goal also happened in that game. Banger of a cross right to the penalty spot from Trigger, Aldo buried it tbf.
Early in the move you can see an absolutely fucking knackered Roy Keane barely fit to move himself forward.
I’m sure the lads went on the absolute tear after the Italy match and them all dehydrated as fuck.
Oh you know they did. We didnt rate Mexico at all.
Fair day in Spancil Hill if yesterday was the day before……
Fair was yesterday, the song is wrong. It has always been the Jun 23rd.
