The last thing to die is hope - Надежда умирает последне

I don't often miss home matches, or away matches for that matter, but as it turned out it I found myself wishing that I had missed this one. It was 13th September 2013 and Shels were playing Dundalk in the last eight of the cup. Maybe this was a chance for Shels to make some kind of mark on a season that had gone from bad to worse to catastrophic? Not a chance. By half time we 0-5 down. By the end there was such a cloud of depression hanging over Tolka park I was really beginning to wonder if I would ever go to another football match there again. 

But of course, I will be back again next week. Following Shels you always have a choice: be optimistic in spite of it all or just give up hope altogether. 

The last thing to die is hope - Надежда умирает последне!
