As the father of a half-Polish boy, this is making me pretty emotional. Fucking wonderful stuff.
I couldnât go because of him, but everyone there, I think, have done something that will make his life and mine that little bit better.
You should see peopleâs faces when I tell them his mother is Polish. I donât give a shit, itâs their problem, but I hope Euro 2012 will start something that means when I tell people the same thing in a few years they think itâs a fucking great thing, rather than whatever prejudiced shit goes through their minds up to now.
Up Ireland. Up Poland.

Well said Thraw. Drove through your ancestral home Radom last night.
[font=âTimes New Romanâ][size=â3â][color="#000000"]That was good alright, other good[/size][/font] chants heard in Poland:
âWe all dream of a team without Paul Green, a team without Paul Green. No. 1 is not Paul Green etc etcâ
âThereâs only one Angela Markel, She gave us the cash to go on the lash, walking in a Markel wonderlandâ
To a stripper hanging out of a window overlooking Poznan square after shaking her head to a get your t!ts out chant: âYouâre only a Polish Vicky Pollardâ
Impromptu song from about 40-50 people in one of the bars to an Irish guy walking through Poznan square with a fairly fit looking Polish girl: âIs she really going out with himâ.
âLets all do the Poznanâ â quite common out there, but this was on the bus to the stadium, donât know how we didnât keel over.
In Sopot early Wednesday afternoon âWhatâs that coming out of the Woods?.. Itâs Larry Murphyâ followed by,⌠âDe de deh de de deh de de de, dig her up, Larry dig her upâ
To John Delaneyâs face in Sopot âOhh, John Delaney, He used to be a wanker, but heâs alright nowâ
Methinks the lady doth protest too much⌠Sounds like you miss home TASE. If you like I can arrange for an Irish lad I know in Brisbane to come and vomit on your door and then sleep in it?
A highlight for me was asking a lad (who seemed relatively sober) why he was walking around the square in his barefeet:
Him. Well you know the way they go shoes off for the boys in Green
Me. Ya
Him. Well I got a bit carried away in the stadium and fucked them down the stand
Someone robbed John Delaneys shoe in a shoes off for the boys in Green aswell.
The more I read about the antics over the more iâve had to take stock and reappraise this âgreatest fans on the earthâ sham. Shoes off ? Singing songs about a serial killer/rapist, fellas asleep in the street/train stations at 8am from the excesses of alcohol, Puke wearing a pair of OâNeils shorts for the 10days he was there and grown men racing in a shopping centre and breaking up glass doors. Did anyone eat shit ?
Haha brilliant. That guy must regret that day big time. Imagine waking ip the next day and remembering the brown tears streaming into your gob in front of the lads! Best moment of my life watching that happen
If I have one criticism of my best mate the dancing baby itâs that while he is adept at eating his own shit at club level, his failure to make the poland trip means he has never shown an ability to eat his own shit at international level.
I would really love him to show him produce and digest at this level.
Privately dancing baby has indicated to me his desire to make the breakthrough to the international setup at quatar 2022 but Iâm not sure how he would cope with the high fibre nut and fig based Arab diet. Could be very messy
