While we are restricted once more tonight with the Level 3 regulatons, the rest of the country is on Level 2 and one of the ‘allowances’ is the allocaton of a small number of fans to sportng events. It’s not much, but a start I guess and a welcome one as I’m of the stance Premier Division that sitng outside watching a sportng event, distanced form the next person, is far healthier than in the confned spaces of pubs or work places. 1923/24, 1927/28, 1929/30, Plus it also benefts mental health. I can only envy the joy felt of those 1933/34, 1935/36, 1974/75, when walking through the gates of the Showgrounds once again. 1977/78, 2000/01, 2002/03, What I, and thousands of other fellow Bohs, would give to be able to 2008, 2009 don the scarf and go through the turnstles at Dalymount. Yes of course, it will happen, but when we just can’t tell. This small act of normality would FAI Cup give so many people a huge boost and go a long way to eliminatng the 1927/28, 1934/35, 1969/70, perpetual cloud hovering over every one of us since March. It’s the not 1975/76, 1991/1992, knowing that afects us the most in general. 2000/01, 2008 It’s more than just atending a match; it’s a social event. Friends meetng every fortnight, enjoying a laugh, a pint and a rant at the game can only be League Cup understood by those who have been immersed in this way of life for years. 1974/75, 1978/79, 2009 Try explaining it to people, well, you will ofen be met with a vacant look. Setanta Cup While I doubt the lads in Dáil Eireann will be clicking through the pages of this editon, we can only hope common sense will prevail in the coming 2010 spring months and the lifeblood of the game, the fans, can begin to trickle Leinster Cup back to fll a huge hole in their lives. Keep the faith. We will be there again. 1895/95 - 2016: Finally, it was with great sadness we learnt of the sad passing of Christy Whelan, a well known and much loved supporter at Dalymount through the A record 32 ttles decades. We pay tribute to him a few pages up. May he rest in peace.
