Louis van Gaal has nailed his colours firmly to the mast here.
The Manchester United manager is fully behind Portlaoise’s Leinster club football championship campaign.
Van Gaal was approached by Portlaoise fan Catherine Doyle after Saturday’s victory over West Brom and asked to send a message of support to the Laois champions ahead of their match against Sarsfields yesterday.
The Dutch man is always up for a laugh it seems, so he delivered the slogan ‘C’mon the Town’ in his best Irish accent, and the video has now been viewed more than 70,000 times.
Van Gaal obviously knows a winner when he sees one too, as Portlaoise reached the Leinster semi-finals with a 2-5 to 0-10 victory over their Kildare rivals.
Manchester United Manager Louis Van Gaal is even supporting “The Town”
