This new footage of Italia '90 celebrations in Arklow town is absolute gold

REPUB-A-LICK OF IRELAND!

THE HEADY DAYS of Italia ’90 is usually best celebrated through the medium of Reeling in the Years on YouTube.

But this week some class footage has made its way online showing the scenes in Arklow town after one of Ireland’s matches in the World Cup – and it’s a wonderfully nostalgic sight:

Uploaded by Paud O’Keefe - from the original footage by Peter Dempsey – there’s nearly 10 minutes worth of mad celebrations about the town.

Including customary set of bananas and tricolours.

When these lads spotted the camera, they gave it the big one too
