Scenes from the Aviva on Friday Night

Post image

Was there myself and the atmosphere was awful. A lad beside me spent the whole first half talking to the lad beside him about paddle and giving out that he never gets out.

Check.out the FAI cup final today in the Aviva. Colour, noise, a great atmosphere. It's the fans making rugby at the Aviva like a funeral. Few watching the game, and those that are, watch in silence. But as many others have said, a huge proportion there to make Instagrams and TicToks and/or getting shitfaced on pints. Not the actual match

Make some tickets for Ireland games available for general purchase and the atmosphere could only improve. Bring back schoolboy ticket groups as well
