NATIONAL LEAGUERS #1

A soap opera of little quality.

This week the fans argue over who will win the league.

PATS FAN - What do you think boys Pats for the league this year.
UCD FAN - Yes their footwork is excellent and the class and elegance Hawkins displays at the back is mesmorizing. The front two of Molloy and Gilzean are as beautiful to watch as two swans in a lake.
DROGHEDA FAN - Yeah, Molloy ya swan ya.
PATS FAN - Whatever, but Martin Russell, as I said in Glasgow he's class, pure class. What do you think Cork fan
CORK FAN - He's a Dub he's crap . Anyway Cork for the league, Sligo second, Harps third, Derry fourth, Dundalk fifth, Waterford sixth, Bray seventh, feck the rest a them homeless Dubs
ROVERS FAN - I'll kick yer head in you Connacht scum
UCD FAN - Technically speaking Cork is actually situated in Munster one of the four provinces of Ireland. Connacht is a province but not the one in which Cork is situated.
ROVERS FAN - I'll kick yer head in too UCD boy
Rovers fan thumps UCD fan
PREMIERSHIP FAN - Missed that, i'll wait for the replay.
UCD FAN - Oo my abdominen
ROVERS FAN - Come on Bohs fan where are ya, wait til we get ya to Tallaght with all those mangoes from New Zealand
UCD FAN - Actually the term for New Zealanders is Kiwis
DROGHEDA FAN - Tom McNulty is a mango, is a mango .
FINN HARPS FAN - Did you hear that Drogheda are gonna be sponsored by a trampoline company cos they keep going up and down
DROGHEDA FAN - Fss, mzz, cos they won't sponsor mangoes like you, ha you see that, i got ya there
LIMERICK FAN - God help us
DERRY FAN - Hey Finn Harps fan you took that joke from us
FINN HARPS FAN - Gavin Dykes is a good player
PATS FAN -Back to the league. Pats will do the full monty this year, league, cup, league cup the lot
UCD FAN - The Full Monty is one of my all time favourite films with fine acting by Robert Carlyle
DUNDALK FAN - Damn Carlyle
SHELS FAN - We're straying from the main question here, should Wimbledon move to Dublin
PATS FAN - That wasn't the question
GALWAY FAN - Chill my brothers, take it easy, I have a bottle of Lilt we can all enjoy it together
ATHLONE FAN - If Wimbledon moved to Ireland our top players such as Johnny Morris Burke would get to show their talents on a wider stage. Incidentally did I ever tell you about the time Athlone drew 0-0 with Milan.
DUNDALK FAN [ Shouting ] - Listen it's all Carlyle's fault, everything. Athlone would have beaten Milan if it wasn't for Carlyle, Bill Clinton would be a respected President of America if it wasn't for Carlyle, It's all Carlyle's Fault
CORK FAN - Cork will win the league this year but RTE won't show it they'll be showing Fair City with all those Dubs on it with their 3 bars for a pound. We don't care about RTE . We'll show them. Long live the Shed.
DROGHEDA FAN - heehee yeah Crawley ya shed ya
PATS FAN - I asked a simple question who'll win the league.
CORK FAN - Cork
GALWAY FAN - Tropican football man
DUNDALK FAN - Not us, not with bloody Carlyle
ROVERS FAN - I dunno but I'll bleedin kill 'em
UCD FAN - In a 33 game league, it is quite obvious the team who can mix solid away form with a will to win will triumph and they will truly be champions
BOHS FAN - Bohez
ATHLONE FAN - Milan
ST. FRANCIS FAN - Bray 3-0
DERRY FAN - Derry
HARPS FAN - not this year but Harps in 1999/00
DROGHEDA FAN - Jim McLaughlin is a harp, is a harp
PREMIERSHIP FAN - You'll all lose, part timers. Oh no the Last Word started an hour ago I gotta go
SHELS FAN - League ?????
LIMERICK FAN - The team who wins will come before him on the last day and the winners will be crowned Saints.

So the first edition of National Leaguers ends and not before time. Next Week - The gang discuss the Ireland squad
