Harassing a Herald journo in the hotel bar in Rimini after the game (whilst drunk) to let me edit his article (that sounds wrongConfused)
It was the only computer in the foyer and I was trying to log on to foot.ie whilst he was typing his article. We saved it on the hotel computer, not sure if it ever made print although he emailed it back to the Herald that night. God knows what shiite I was writing.
Hare Krishna parade in Prague was class, also drinking shots of liquers in a souvenir shop in San Marino, owner kept filling the glass. The Calcutta Express from Bratislava to Prague running out of beer, train stewards stopped en route to stock up!
All the Ireland fans singing the Barbie song before they let us out of the Podgorica stadium, far too many guys know the words to that song Confused
Getting locked into the Porterhouse bar in Mainz on the Sunday night til maybe 3am(vague memory), the cops coming in and just told us to keep the singing down a bit.
The bus from Rimini to San Marino, great response and singing to Joe Dolan's songs LOL
Tony O'D getting mobbed in Mainz when the live telly link came on LOL
On train from Mainz to Dusseldorf hungover to hell, a Josef Fritzl racist communist lookalike starting chatting to us the whole way. He overheard us speaking and knew we were speaking english but that it sounded different with strange and unusual words and phasesLOL
And 1st class train from Dusseldorf to Mainz when we only bought 2nd class ticketsClap

I think that was by Botel (Hotel / Brothel). LOL

Same trip but different strip club... All the lads I was with let the girls know I was from "Hollywood".  All the girls were very impressed and to play along I let them know I was a casting director, got free dances and table shows the rest of the night. Clap

Is it like a cross between a Brothel and a Hotel.


itd a cross between a hotel and a boat.... botel Thumbs%20Up

in fairness it was the first time i heard of them aswell Jim
 
Ha.
We arrived in Bratislava on the Train from Prague,and I got into a wee bit of bother for havin a smoke on the platform.Two guards reprimanded me and were demanding a bribe,for about a fiver or thereabouts,but it was the principle of the matter and I refused to pay.So,things were lookin a bit ropey,until about 100 or more Irish fans came down the platform only to see a fellow comrade in a spot of bother.They all crowded around the guards,completely overwhelmed them and I was let go.
 
Then,we got a taxi to our hotel,only to discover that the whole place was double booked...some fooker done loadsa folks outta money and accomodation that night,fackin cants!Angry
So,anyway the porter was dead sound and went totally out of his way to arrange alternative accomodation.
Nice wan.
We jumped in a jo maxi and headed for our new residence.
As we pulled up beside the Danube sometime in the early hours,we saw this Botel on which we were meant to stay,and bloody hell did it look well dodgy.I dunno what went thru our minds at that point in time,but it was soon forgotten when we got settled in and it ended up being a rollickin good time,except that we missed a nights drinkin in Bratislava.
Good times indeed.

We were staying in a town outside Niigata(Ireland v Cameroon) when myself and one of the lads went for a dander at 630am in the town, anyhow ended up getting lostEmbarrassed and we asked a local for directions to the train station as our hotel was beside it, these Japs had not an ounce of english, so started saying to him "choo choo" with the arms going too to demonstrate a trainEmbarrassed gave me all these hand signal directions but we were none the wiser so dandered on for a while, came to another fellow, done the same motions with him, same, gave me a pile of hand signals, walked on for about 5 mins when heard car blowing the horn, that last fellow had gone back home, got the car, wife and 2 kids, started taking loads of photos of us(all had to have an invidual picture with them wearing the Ireland scarf too)  and gave us a lift. Worst thing was they left us right to the door of the station, got out of the car and walked in with us, started waving away and the usual bowing towards us, we had rail passes for the duration over there so we walked onto the platform, fook, they still stayed waving away and bowing, stil taking photos too(gave them the scarf to keep) and they stayed there til a train came, we got on it as we had not the heart in us to turn back and go across the road back to the hotelEmbarrassed We just got off at next stop and went back again.

Was Standing outside the airport in Skopje with a couple of mates having a couple of drinks, the day after we chucked atomatic first place away v Macadonia, when you know the type you often get at matches, dressed like their about to go onto a golf course, with his baige slacks, light blue polo shirt and jumper tied around his shoulders, really clipped accent and all that cojones, sounding like he should have been at a Leinster rugby game, sticks his head up into my mates face and commenting on the fact that my mate was wearing our nice bright Orange away jersey say's '' whyyyy daaa hellll are yoooo wearing daaat shirt, dat shirt is sooo disgusting, dats daaa worst jersey we have soooo had''.

 
 My mate turned away from  this rugger bugger and pointing back at him shouted '' does Barry Manilow know that this man has stolen clothes from his wardrobe''.
 
 The greatest put down I have heard delivered too a smart arse.

the boy z, gary breen,etc quality storiesClap lads..
I lived in South Korea during WC 2002 and when the lads came over from Japan and that i was asked about a particuluar song the South koreans sung which went like this : Tae Ha Ming guk Tae Hah ming guk, ehh oohh... well that's what it sounded like. It means Republic of South Korea basically..because they did so well everyone was singing it.. Next thing you have about 500 paddies in the middle of Seoul singing to the same tune as above but with different lyrics: " Tele Bingo Tele Bingo Tele Bingo thursday nites! ehh ohh!!!"

Singing "There's only one Johnny Logan"  and booing the cops everytime they took our ball in Prague, meeting the Serb hoolies in Monty, singing to "the Bride in White" in Bratislava, signing YBIG fanzines for all the hotel staff in the 5 star hotel in Budva as they all thought we were famous and minted when we really paid 15 quid for the room.....You just break your ballox laughing most of the time on these trips as you're constantly pisssed....apart from the match when you're usually shiiting it.
