Any Newry supporters coming down to the Brandywell for Derry City v Newry on 4th August?Good luck for next season, and well done in the Inter-Toto. Niall - Derry

If Linfield and Glentoran and the others can drape union jacks around The Showgrounds, then newry fans should be free to bring their own flags including tricolors. K.O'R. - Warrenpoint

I were years looking for Alan Byrne he is fantastic.Could you givme some photos and videos of him,please? In my school he is the most know player of Great Britain,we made a bet for that reason to see who was better Byrne or Gianfranco Zola, I have to gather information and to be given it to my friends.For the time being Alan him this winning. Maty a really fan of Byrne M. M.- Bs As, Argentina

Congratulations on ruining another local footballer's potential Anderson, namely Chris Coffey. What about trying to get Gavin Trainor back to the Town and telling 'the Hawk' to give up the fags and Whiskey's the night before games and the pills before the matches! One of the supporters from the Town Vs Duisberg game commented that 'Gorman ran about for the first twenty minutes like a man possessed (with an E-tab) and when it wore off he had to be subbed'. If you had any sense sign Jab Feehan and pay him good money because you lost Gavin Treanor by paying him peanuts and giving fat Scottish hasbeens a living!!!!!!!!! bajaldo - Newry

God love you Hyle, you havent got a foggy due.
Just because Joe Rice has allowed a few nights in the social club for Sinn Fein doesnt mean he is a hypocrite because he has asked for the tri color not to be flown at the showgrounds. I myself have put up tri colors at the Showgrounds only to have them taken down, long before Joe came on the scene. Joe when he arrived at the showgrounds came with a business brain and a football brain, he got rid of the dead wood in the place and set about to get Newry to the top, he said three years to Europe, was he right ? did he deliver ? Hyle you know the answer. Why is it that every time that something or someone gets to the top or is successful as*h*les like Hyle are always there to critisise.... JEALOUS.. I THINK SO. Even if Joe leaves this year, the next contenders will ask like Joe did, only ask, for the tricolor not to be flown or waved, as not to offend fellow Newry supporters. As far as him being small ,your right, being bald, your right, being a greddy bas**rd, your right again and like everyone in the world we are all greedy bas**rds. thats why he is successful , thats why Newry are successful. I was in Zagreb on that wonderful day when Newry took to the field. To me it was better than Chelsea v Vfb Stuttgart last year in Stockholm when the blues won the European cup winners cup. To me Joe is the Ken Bates of Irish football, he is the Messiah!!! Newry DONT F..k up. Re elect JOE as chairman and back him to the hilts. By the way hyle i bet you paid another £45.00 to those greddy Man united bas**rds for another British shirt J.S. - Armagh

Die Croatia Die We are in the same league as Juventus.We will win the intertoto cup. HaHa all those who said newry wouldn't go any where any other fans who want to contact me bri@skybri.freeserve.co.uk We have shown all those who said Newry would not come of anything!!! We want Miler back!!! Come on the Town B.B. -Sheffield

Good luck tomorrow in the Intertoto. Wishing you all the best. N.H. - Dublin

I'd really like to know where I can get a ntfc shirt as I miss my old town of Newry. D.O'R - Northampton

HELLO,BOK, HRVATSKI IZ ZAGREB STE VERLO DOBRO ALI NEWRY SHOULD GIVE IT THEIR BEST SHOT AND I FEEL THEY CAN WIN THIS MATCH. PS WHAT TIME IS KICK OFF AS I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE GAME. STEPHEN DOBRO DOSLI HRVATSKI S.C. - Dublin

I recently saw a comment on this website from a certain hatchetman-loyalist belfast saying that our national flag is the northern ireland flag and remember 1690. I have 3 things to say to him- f**k him, f**k 1690, and he can shove his N.Ireland flag up his hole. B.F. - An t'Iuir.

Why is Newry Town FC so much against the flying our our national falg? Mr Joe Rice would be a hypocrite to condemn the Newry fans for singing "rebel" songs at the matches as the very same man held, not 1, but 2 Sinn Fein nights at his Town Bar over the Easter week-end. It goes to show that the baldy wee fart is a money grabbing, false, greedy little shite who should be declared a true Brit!. When the new season commences every Newry fan should bring their republican/nationalist regailia to the Showgrounds and protest the oppresion and unfairness that is being dictated by wee Joey Hyly - An tIuir

Its good to see the site has really developed. I would like to think that the club itself has given some support to this young lad for his efforts to promote Newry Town F.C... probably not. Well anyway whos all going to Croatia ? Are you rooster cocannon, because I heard you paid £300.00 pound for a ticket to sing along with all those pommie toffs. Well to all those so called soccer supporters who went to Barce, how about supporting your own home town in Europe. Well one things for certain I will be there and i will have the biggest tricolor Newry or Croatia will ever see. Whats the bets no photos will be taken of it . Well I am going on my jack todd but when i get there i hope to meet up with some of my old inter village firm mates who are travelling from England and one even from Australia and by the way Newry committee dont get embarrassed if the 4 of us (hey not a bad name for a group) decide to go lulally.forza newry J.S. Armagh

A chairde,
Ní ceart leis an tIúir bheith cumann dubh ,nuair a bíonn an cathair Êireannach go leor. Ach is fearr liom gan bheith bhaistaird agus tá súil agam go bhfuil an slúa go h-an sasta nuair atá sí sa Phairc an Iúir.Is féidir linn club cairdiúil a taispéanach don chruinne agus bá mhaith liomgo bhfuilimid duine bródúil ach nílimid cuntaí. therefore,we should not be a sectarian club and no emblems(yes Joe Rice and his hangers-on,you have to ban Union Jacks etc..)should be allowed,as they only polarise a team.....especiallysince half our players come from Linfield anyway...

Excellent site big man! Keep up the good work, Mal Mal - Belfast

Cracking wee site. My late Grandfather was a great Newry fan and although we were ethnicly cleansed from S.Armagh before I was born I still have a soft spot for the Town. Marty - Scotland / Newcastle

HELLO FELLOW FOOTY SUPPORTERS!!!! just a few lines to say how much i'm looking forward to visiting your quaint little country, drinking your fine ale, and watching my superior football team stuff your team 4-1UP THE MARINERS!!!!!!!

As a GLENTORAN FAN was disgusted to see the letters that have been published on this site, Football is football...if fans riot it is because of football. It has come to my conclusion that Newry fc are similar to that of linfield they care more about poliitics and making a point than there football team. THE MAIN REASON YE CAN'T BRING TRICOLOURS TO THE OVAL IS BECAUSE IT IS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD. EVERY GFC V'S N.F.C HAVE BENN GOOD MATCHES WITH BOTH SETS OF FANS BEHAVING ADMIRABLEY. BUT YOU CANT BRING TRICOLOURS TO EAST BELFAST ITS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD. T.S. - Belfast

Paul H is wrong, the tricolour is NOT your national flag, the northern ireland national flag is the red cross, red hand and crown REMEMBER 1690 Hatchetman-Loyalist Belfast

I once sent a message and it was answered by J. McC.Could this same kind gentleman tell me when the mighty Town will be in action in the Intertoto Cup(f**k Crusaders for winning on the final day..wa**ers) I'm stuck in Sasana(England)and probably won't see it,but as an old fan(at home games only, I don't like people throwing stones at me)I would like to spread the word around the ignorant(Man. Utd supporting)English.Newry Abu!
Does the fact that Cliftonville were thrown out of the Cup mean that Newry should get their UEFA Cup spot?I'm not one to support the sectarian viewpoint of the IFA(eg,would Linfield have got thrown out in similar circumstances?hmmm..)but I would love to see the Town inthe UEFA Cup as a sickener for all the begrudgers. Anybody got any views on this,especially Cliftonville supporters? PS.Say hello to Pat McGrath for me please...Ballyholland Harps for the Championship! J. McA., Newry/Oxford

It would be better to see some more home grown talent instaed of flying them duffs in from across the water. D.A. Belfast

Just a short comment about the new "stand". Where is it??? Great season, great matches, great results. We can do it next season if the fans get behind the team from the first game. Paul Straney will be sorely missed. P.C. Newry

Some great comments. J from South armagh is on the money. He knows the score. You need more supporters like him. Newry seem like a small time club to me with few supporters so anybody who's prepared to stand up for their club, their Town and their flag will do for me. You can count The unknown soldier as a Newry Town supporter now but forgive me for supporting my other team Chelsea as well. I would like to have been there when you ran Portadown out of town or the riot against Linfield. Somebody who was there tell me about it. Who are the Inter Village Firm and where are they now. Yes, find the IVF and give them all season tickets. Oh, by the way. Real hooligans don't stone buses. Go toe to toe, with your foe and if you don't know, ask the IVF. The unknown soldier

Come on let Robbie Quinn have a kick about he is amazing! I am his big cousin!! C.C. -Dartford, Kent

Congrats on making Europe boys! The site is great, it keeps me intouch with all the results and all the fun I miss at the Town games. Keep up the good work, Good Luck in Europe, and always remember we're Irish, keep your tri-colours flying, if they can...so can we! TAL..PFeeko-Sydney/Newry/everywhere!
