Go into a huddle before the start and then burst into a team bonding song to the tune of a Westlife song and make sure they can hear it; e.g. World Of Our Own.
I’ll start you:
We’ve got a little team of our own,
I’m at the back and XXX is in goals,
YYY takes the penos and I take the throws,
We’re gonna win and get through.
Will think of some sledging later but quite busy now.

Lyonsee’s just checked in with a celebrity spot from abroad. It was last night – in his own words ‘that shaven headed gimp from id2 in Rosie O’Grady’s in Puerta Banus, Malaga, posing like a dick’. Think he’s on about Aidan Power – the great Laura Wood’s co-host on The Café.

Thanks for that Bandage. Subsequent celebrity spots were David Jason in Malaga, who seemed really cool and approachable and Kevin Moran in Dublin Airport.

Attended the Miss Ireland pagent in City West on Friday night and saw the following: Andrea Roche, Glenda Gilsen, Killian O'Sullivan (Lorcan from Fair City), Paul Byron (Irish tenors), Gerry Flannery, Alan Hughes, Derek Mooney, Aoife Coogan (Miss Ireland 2005), Pamela Flood and of course Miss Ireland 2006 (can't remember her name).
Andrea Roche is without doubt one of the best looking women I've ever seen. Absolutely gorgeous.

Andrea Roche is without doubt one of the best looking women I've ever seen. Absolutely gorgeous. I once again wish to express my views of the celeb spotting thread. While all of the above are notewordy spots I wonder should we only be including spots that are random, i.e in a pub or in a shop etc, and not at an organised event where these so called celebs are likely to be spotted. If we were to go for the latter then we could all post seeing Damien Duff at and Ireland match or Robbie Williams at his concert etc. etc. Just my opinion of course. DT |

I agree. When you see a celebrity in their proper context then it's not a spot - it's attendance at a celebrity event. Maybe seeing Lorcan from Fair City is worth a mention but spotting socialites at a Miss Ireland contest is par for the course.

Guy Easterby in the 51 on Haddington Road all day Saturday on his English mate's stag weekend. Good value for money and seemed like a decent guy (pun very much intended).
Most of the Wexford football players in Copper's after the game last night. Do they count? Strolled home to Baggot Street with Rory Stafford (the Wexford midfielder with the mohawk hair cut) who was staying in his mate's house near where I live. Don't know him but he shouts 'hey Wexford lad hold on there' as I was strolling home - I was sporting my jersey. I was very upset, tired and emotional and went off on one of my rants as I tend to do. I pleaded with him to salvage our season, told him there's still people who'll be gagging to see us win in Clones next weekend and we can't just allow this one game to fook us up so much that our improvement of the last few years counts for nothing. He goes they thought they'd cut out all the silly, stupid things that perennial losers generally do but for some reason it all came back yesterday. He said he couldn't believe they had lost the game given we had about 70% possession from start to finish but poor decision making and misuse of the ball cost us. He said there's no fooking way they're going to go up there and roll over like last year and guaranteed me a Wexford win on Saturday. We shook hands and concluded what was quite a strange 4am conversation indeed.
Agree with the parameters set down by DT also.

Forgot to post this one the other day – Tuesday lunch time, the comedienne (is this a word?) Deirdre O’Kane strolling down Baggot Street Upper by Victor Chandler bookies wearing knee length leather boots and sporting a nice Jackie Chan. A definite milf I would have thought.

Celeb spot sent in from a pub in Coogee, Australia where 2 old Home and Away stalwarts, Blake and Stephen, are having a few beers. I wonder how Sophie and Selina are keeping?

A weekend of drunken debauchery was had at Oxegen '06 but I have to report a celeb sighting from Saturday in front of the main stage. I only remembered this sighting as I took a pic with my phone. Most of the weekend is a blur!  The celeb looks mad out of it! Yes it is Shaggy and Denis Hickie was there with him too although he was more discrete in shades and beanie hat. What followed this pic was probably the funniest thing of the weekend. To my amazement Shaggy was dragged up for some crowd surfing only for the crowd to part and him coming tumbling to the ground. Fooking brilliant. What do you expect you're a big rugger bugger mate! DT Ps. I didn't do any photoshop with the pic. I think the guy in front of shaggy's name was blurry or something like that! |

Saw Lord Henry MountCharles at Oxegen on Sunday night. Had a bird with him who was wearing some fancy dress, she looked terribly out of place considering we were covered in muck.

You're getting the hang of the celeb spots now tommy - you didn't have to go to an awards ceremony or something for that one. |

A quality celeb spot from today at lunch time. Standing in the queue in the Swedish Food Company on Baggot St with one of the lads from work and I turn around to look out into the sunshine and there right behind me is Joe Duffy chatting to a woman (dunno if she was from Clontarf). Anyway, I ordered my usual (see favourite sandwich thread) then Joe was called forward to order. Not knowing his ciabatas from his sliced pan Joe pointed at my panini and said he’d have one of them. Didn’t catch what he got as fillings as I proceeded to leave and pay. He was wearing black trousers and a grey shirt (not tucked in).

That links nicely to a conversation myself and sam had while out training last night (unbelievable story so far I know). We were mentioning how the weather has brought out some very nice ladies (as discussed previously on the forum).
I said 'Well you just have to stare at them, it's not like they know you so you can't get really get embarassed.'
Sam agreed, 'Yeah but the problem is when you make eye contact with them and you can see they're afraid. Also, some of them don't like being chased either. It was like being in a marathon the other day with me running after a bird in town. Racing down the street with a bottle of water and pouring it over my face. Then I had to stop to throw off my work shoes as they were slowing me down and I had to empty my pockets of loose change too as that was affecting my speed. I didn't catch her in the end.'

Killian O'Sullivan (Lorcan from Fair City), was in Flannerys last night. Who says that place doesn't attract the classy clientelle?!
