Come Here To Me!

Irish Ultras Movement have just posted a great interview with the Shed End Invincibles over here. It’s worth a read, and is hopefully just the first in a series of interviews with various groups. The IUM site was excellent last season, with frequent updates from all over the island.

Last week the lads were based in the mainstand and managed to generate a wonderful atmosphere, with flags waving for 90 minutes as you frequently see abroad but sadly is quite unusual at home.

I remember the SEI of old when I was younger as being one of the main reasons I’d demand to be taken down to Richer every Friday my dad was off work. Now, more and more youngsters will be drawn into the game by “the flags and the flares…”

Returning to the shed is something that we have looked into but at the moment it’s not possible. We all grew up during the days of the shed and know how special it used to be. Currently clubs with larger away support are put in there. It’s also important to remember that the SEI have been located in every part of Richmond Park since 2001 and not just the Shed End. We’ve also brought up the possibility of getting a roof on the West Stand but it’s just not possible at this time. Perhaps in the not too distant future we can get back into the shed but it does need improvement and is not likely to happen anytime soon.
