f**k me, cheer up pal
 
go off and get yourself a ride, ring baldrick!
 
 
we are there to cheer on the team and have a good time, were not all going to stand there and be like a bunch of spas just singing coybig etc.
 
there will be a party atmosphere in the ground and it is something we might not witness again for a while after the group we have got for the world cup!
 
 

Witness it at a good few qualifying games.... If you go...

For a lot of grown ups, doing the Poznan or a Mexican Wave when you're trying to watch a football game isn't having a good time. Celtic fans looked absolutely pathetic at their big derby the other day.

After reading all these posts I can see how "dedicated" you are guys are.. you are now all my hero's!!  Take a bow...

 
a 'lets do a Poznan thread'Shocked,genius ..... a full 4 months after Poznan was confirmed and its only suggested now how did we all miss it ? incredible forsight well playedClapClap
 
Dedicated ? - if by dedicated you mean travelling over europe supporting your country and singing your heart out then guilty.
 
If by dedicated you mean copying the latest flavour of the month just seen on SSN/EPL  (God help us there was no football before sky) then I think I will pass. If you want to do choreograpghed 'dance moves I suggest you go to a Glee concert. its probably your age range.

I am sure the Poznan fans/citizens are having sleepless nights wondering what gestures opposing fans will come up with................. 'if only they would do 'a Poznan' it would make our day'

I think we should do the Poznan, the Huddle, sing You'll Never Walk Alone, and maybe sort some sort of special Ireland shirt with green and white hoos in support of Neil Lennon? Johnny C might sort that for us?

Ah lads, surely this bloke has a valid point. Well, I think he does. I can't make it home for the Bosnia game but in sympathy, I'll be turning my back to the TV and jumping up and down for 90 minutes.
If somebody could send me text updates of the game, I'd be grateful.

Can I also add that anybody else who can't make it to the Bosnia game who does do the same as me is a snob and a dry sh*te .

Poznan folks won't really care. They won't be in the stadium, or at least not many of them. 

Also, singing another song in honour of Poznan isn't going to get any attention at all. The Poznan celebration at least stands a chance. The thing to be remembered is that the Poznan is actually a goal celebration, not like a facking mexican wave that gets pulled out when people are bored.

As it is, I would probably get involved if it started..... but only if it started after we scored and went up by three clear goals with less than ten minutes to play.

Have people never been to a live football match. Theres no need to manufacture an atmosphere - it happens itself. And even moreso at a major tournament.

I couldnt care less if people are doing handstands in the crowd, you dont need to decide whether you're going to join in 2 and a half months before the game Geek

Bet your bottom dollar if we go 1up v Croatia 80% of the well oiled Paddys will be doing this
It's spur of the moment sh*t
I'd probably do it for 10/20 seconds and that would be it
No big deal but some Superfans seem to have a problem with it

But I'm not good at doing handstands, what the hell am I supposed to do if people start doing this?

Can we decide on something else than handstands lads?

I have no problem if other lads at the match wanna do it couldnt care less

I certainly wont be turning my back on the game though

Why do we have to jump on another bandwagon getting involved in another generic footballing celebration when we have plenty of songs etc of our own

That just cant get enough is getting seriously old aswel
It took City 44 years to win the league and 10 months to lose it
