  • Ritual Performance of Identity by the Shamrock Rovers Football Club Ultras in Dublin
    i On the Terrace: Ritual Performance of Identity by the Shamrock Rovers Football Club Ultras in Dublin A thesis submitted by Max Jack In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music (Ethnomusicology) Tufts University 19 May 2012 Advisers: David Locke and Rich Jankowsky ii Abstract This thesis draws upon the author’s fieldwork conducted in Dublin, Ireland, focusing on a particular group of Shamrock Rovers Football Club supporters called ultras. The primary focus of the SRFC Ultras is to create an aural and visual spectacle through mass crowd participation in the hope that such modes of expression will have an advantageous effect on the outcome of the game and create an evocative response from individuals watching it. The Ultras’ desired aesthetic aims to transform spectators into participants who sing throughout the match, wave flags, light off marine flares, and present hand-made displays. Such performative activities actualize a distinct community that revolves around the Shamrock Rovers sporting narrative. Songs, chants, and all other elements of “atmosphere” are a communicative act between opposing teams based upon the unfolding match. Such experiences revolve around conflict, activating an array of emotions and experiences that would not occur in day-to-day life. iii Table of Contents Introduction…………………………………………………………………………….1 1 Narrativization and the Stadium Rules…………………………………………….21 2 Learning and Performing Identity………………………………………………..39 3 Creating Conflict: The SRFC Ultras, The League of Ireland, and England………64 4 Generating Emotion: Chants and Displays as a Collective Dialogue……………..90 Conclusion……………………………………………………………………………122 1 INTRODUCTION On May 16, 2012, I arrived in Dublin airport from Boston to see gray skies outside the airplane window.

When we sent the frst special editon online programme out through the WiFi dominated ether we were bowled over by the response not just from all involved with Bohemians but also from other clubs, of whom at Premier Division least a few were reported as utering ‘why didn’t we think of that?!’ 1923/24, 1927/28, 1929/30, So as the weeks passed and with the League of Ireland retaining it’s 1933/34, 1935/36, 1974/75, limbo status I raised the idea with the programme team of doing another 1977/78, 2000/01, 2002/03, one.

  • UCD – Football and Study: by Brian King Friday, 17 April 2015 23:12
    UCD – Football and Study: by Brian King Friday, 17 April 2015 23:12 UCD – Football and Study: by Brian King My connection with UCD goes back to 1997/1998. Among the team of Jason Sherlock, Tony Mc Donnell, Robbie Mc Auley and co I was thrown. That team, for ‘the college’ enthusiasts who remember, included Ken Kilmurray, Ciarán Kavanagh, Mick O’Byrne, Robbie Dunne, Mick O’Donnell, Eoin Bennis, John Martin, Séamus Kelly, Wayne Fitzgerald, Clive Delaney, Ciarán Martyn. As well as being with the players, I remember the presence ofDr.TonyO’Neill, Theo Dunne, Alan O’Neill and kit man Larry Quinn. I would have been 11 and 12 at this time and it was with huge excitement I would be brought by my father Noel to the training sessions and to almost all of the match days. I had special access as a 12 year old, eager to collect the footballs, get the water for the lads and just delighted to be around, practicing free kicks on the hallowed Belfield Park pitch before and after games. 1 / 5 UCD – Football and Study: by Brian King Friday, 17 April 2015 23:12 That period was special for me, the group treated me extremely well, I remember been given a pair of Dublin GAA shorts by Jason Sherlock on one occasion travelling on the team bus to an away game. I remember the long trip to Turner’s Cross which resulted in a 2-1 win. I also remember a miserable day losing 5-1 in Belfield. I remember the talent of the players, Ken Kilmurray’s strength, skill and ability, Ciáran Martyn’s midfield presence, runs and knack of scoring, Mick O’Byrne threat, formidable Séamus Kelly in goal and Clive Delaney in defence.
