cork fan in estonia,nice one

[superscott]

just heard a guy from cork by the name of conor cunningham interviewed on the radio,on how he blagged his way into the estonia bench for the first leg in tallin.got funny looks from their manager,the who the fuck are you type looks,swiped an estonia tracksuit before the refs assistant told him he would have to move,which he did.To a seat behind the irish subs,then blagged his way back on to the field after the game to clap the irish fans with the team.

take a bow young man,surely this beats the dublin fan who was on the field with the dubs after the all-ireland.but will he get the same coverage?

He seemed like a fierce likable young fella.

Pure chancer, but still

Heard the interview as well, Said he had to bite his nails and sit still when Ireland scored. Musta been difficult! Abiy da lad, all the same

If you put coachcunningham into youtube you'll be able to get a bunch of vids up of his exploits, including breaking into St James Park in the early morning to get some pics.

And this link was a great moment when he gave a ball to an Estonian player during the game and then turns and gives a quick look straight into the camera.

The lad came across very well

 

[a honest mistake]

does RTE get to anything first???

he was on Today FM yesterday telling his story. Wonder if it was him who gave the lads the balls at the end to hoof into the crowd.
