    Hi,
    Towards the end of last we a few of us on here talked about meeting up for games in Wexford.

    http://www.irishkop.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14252

    The pool are on TV 4 times in November

    7 Nov 2010 Chelsea H 16:00 (Sky)

    13 Nov 2010 Stoke City A 17:30 (ESPN)

    20 Nov 2010 West Ham H 17:30 (ESPN)

    28 Nov 2010 Tottenham A 16:00 (Sky)

    The Bolton game this Sunday is probably too short notice for people to meet. But if anyone wants to try to arrange to meet up for one of the games in Nov it would be great. Maybe then we could pick a game each month to meet up. Be good to meet up with others on here and have a regular meeting place for games etc.
    Any suggestion of locations are welcome, this includes everyone from Enniscorthy, Gorey etc...
    Axel

    Rather than open a new thread, just use this one....

    Just wondering do any Wex reds on here know anything about a Wexford Liverpool FC Supporters Club????
    Someone in work mentioned to me that there is a meeting next week. I had a search on google and there is a Facebook page, but im blocked from FB in work...
    Anyone on here in it? Is it worth joining??

    Well I (A)remember as a (D)young boy

    The beginning of sep(G)tember

    We were standing at the (Em)station

    (G)Waiting for a (A)train.



    There was (A)priests and christian (D)brothers

    There was nuns and reverend (G)mothers

    There was guards and drunks and (Em)others

    But every(G)one was just the (A)same



    Well they (A)came from Ennis(D)corthy

    From New Ross and Ferns and (G)Gorey

    There was busses from Bun(Em)clody

    There was (G)horses, carts and (A)all



    And when they (A)steped out on the (D)platform

    They were shouting and (G)screaming

    And as they carried Larry (Em)Murphy

    He looked (G)twenty-five feet (A)tall



    So whats the (A)story Martin (D)Storey

    Now Wexford’s really bound for (G)glory

    And when at last the cup was (Em)lifted

    They said we (G)brought it home for (A)you



    Chorus

    We were (D)dancing at the crossroads,

    In the shadow of a (G)bomfire

    Underneath the silver (Em)moon light

    We were (A)singing until (D)dawn,

    We were (A)dancing at the (D)crossroads,

    With the poteen and the (G)porter,

    Dancing jigs and reels and(Em) polkas

    Un(A)til the early (D)morn – (A)



    In every (A)bar down on the (D)main street

    They were hanging from the (G)rafters

    And they sang the boys of (Em)Wexford

    Like it was (G)going out of (A)style



    All the (A)bingo halls were (D)empty

    And all the Masses finished (G)early

    Sure no one ever saw the (Em)likes of

    Since the (G)time of JF(A)K



    And when we (A)look at young O(D)gorman

    And through the mid field he was (G)stormin

    And then the Cusack Stand e(Em)rupted

    When he (G)scored from 60 (A)yards



    Chorus



    And I (A)think of George O’(D)Connor

    So many said he was a (G)goner



    But when he stood up in the (Em)Hogan

    I even (G)saw an old man (A)cry



    Chorus



    (D)Damian Fitzhenry, Ger Cush, Sean Flood,

    (G)Rod Guiney , Liam Dunn,

    Colm Kehoe, (A)Billy Byrne,

    (G)Martin Storey John OConner,

    Tom Dempsey, George O'Connor,

    Adrian Fenlon and

    (A)Larry O'Gorman,



    (D)Rory McCarthy, Larry Murphy, Garry Laffan,

    (G)Eamon Scallan ,Dave Guiney ,

    Declan Ruth, (A)Jim Byrne,

    (G)Shean Carley, Paul Finn,

    Tom Kehoe, are the team,

    and the man that dared to dream his

    (A)name was Liam Griffin



    (D)Seamus Kavanagh,Joe Kerns,MJ Reck

    (G)and all the rest the brave young men of 96

    will be remembered (A)with the best

    (G)Rackard, Quickley, Wheeler, Doran,

    Buggy, Murphy, Nolan, Flood

    And the names I can't recall

    (A)Wexforc heroes one and all

    :D

    Might tag along to see what it is all about.But basically im not been smart, but if you have a memebership, is there any really need to join a supporters club??

    One thing it would be handy for, is if they could get a decent pub in wexford that showed ALL of the liverpool games, Not just the ones which are on Sky or Setanta.Wexford is seriously lacking that, as i dont think there is any where on a saturday where you could go into town and watched a game which is not on the tele in a pub.
