Angry Fans

Was it just the first flush of victory or was Richie Bennis a bit unsporting in his TV comments about Dan Shanahan? Either way, some fans are angry at Richie. Are big match days at Croker being spoiled by drunken Dubs ‘supporters’ , clumsy Garda law enforcement as well as by the after-match music and announcements? Fans are angry, too, at all the hoops they have to go through just to get a ticket to be there. Once again, there’s no shortage of ideas on how RTE could improve their TV coverage, with Messrs Spillane, Brolly and O’ Rourke all getting the fans’ backs up.

I HAVE TO say Richie Bennis’s comments about Dan Shanahan (that he didn’t score any goal today) were well below the belt and shows he is only the front man for this team. Let him do the PR stuff from a distance but no more. – La Salle
