, but this thread reminds me of being on a train from Aarhauus to Copenhagen with Aido, listening to Pipkin on Liveline

Joe,,,,, So Z..., your an accountant, How much do you reckon you have spent watching Ireland on away Trips

Z..., Well Joe, I might be an Accountant, but I am not that good of an Accountant

Classic

Haha was sitting across the carriage from ye with my young lad. Went over and listened to interview with ya, cracking line in fairness LOL

From my counting I'm on 27 (should be 28 only for late cancellation to Sweden in 2013). All really started at euro 2012, performances might of been poor at it but still got hooked and been going to games since.

Circumstances have changed over the years which allowed me to go from picking 1 or 2 games a campaign to going to all competitive games and the odd away friendly (even the 1s I've no memory of attending aka France 2018 LOL

) who knows what the future holds now though even if international football returns in the autumn im not sure when I will next be able to attend due to personal circumstances Cry

the closest i will ever come to playing for ireland https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0_7w4JyvI4

First away 1987 1-0 win in Hamden park missed a couple along the way, never bothered counting though

Just because it's tradition does not make it right

Not a bad one to start with daithi. Probably our best starting 11 ever

It was a super trip baldrick and a great team, I had the pleasure of staying with a family in east sterling at the time, the father was a top union man for the miners at that time who brought me around various places it was mad he was like royalty anywhere we went, I have great memories of that match and trip I suppose it’s what really got me hooked
