Ahh sure I thought why not, we have another thread with the oppisite.
What county do you like the most and leave a few reasons. Let the battle of the countys begin......:rolleyes:

*Edit* Forgot the poll:mad:
Stupid keyboard.

Plug · 13-01-2007 1:52pm

Tipperary for me anyway because most of my relations are from there.

rediguana · 13-01-2007 1:56pm

Cork has the best accent.

And the worst - you're up, Donegal!

rugbug86 · 13-01-2007 1:56pm

galway for me - it has the living room, CP's, supermacs and NUIG

JaysusMacfeck · 13-01-2007 2:16pm

Any of the counties on the western seaboard because they actually have Irish culture. The rest is no different to British culture,. Dublin being the worst dick sucker.

That'd be pretty much the same reason as me. Same place and all. BUT, seeing it from a person who's location is Kilkenny...well, thats just weird.

Another favoured county would be Carlow, just for that classic Gaelic jersey.

Kerry is also another lovely place.

But my main vote goes to Tipp.

I like Dublin and Cork. Both are a welcome break from the other.

Plug · 13-01-2007 2:34pm

Ever notice the Cork accent is the same as the Jamacin one?

Like if they say beer can it sounds like a Jamaican saying bacon.

Galweh or Cork as a break from Dublin.

Funkstard · 13-01-2007 3:33pm

County Dingle

marissa · 13-01-2007 4:04pm

Mayo has to be the best, with fantastic scenery, people and football what more can u ask 4!!

worst unfortunately has to be Louth..im from there..just nothing really to the county! or Dublin too!

qwertplaywert · 13-01-2007 4:13pm

Most liked is Louth of course!up the wee county!

worst: where else but meath ?

InFront · 13-01-2007 4:17pm

Has to be Tipperary: for its mountains and for Lough Derg
And Dublin for being where my house is:)

LivingDeadGirl · 13-01-2007 4:20pm

Cork, for the 'rebel' spirit!

netwhizkid · 13-01-2007 4:21pm

God created the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of Kerry, Excellent scenery plus the greatest footballers this decade. Kerry FTW

In fairness, theres no 'rebel' spirit there that isn't present in any other county in Ireland.

Unless you mean theres a greater fanbase of the IRA present in Cork...in which case...not something to be proud of...

Up The Dubs!

Oriel · 13-01-2007 4:36pm

Cork or Clare

5starpool · 13-01-2007 4:56pm

ABC - Anywhere but Cork.

Sligo ftw.............

the Shades · 13-01-2007 5:03pm

Mayo great people some really nice towns great pubs and food and not totally over built or pretentious like many other Irish counties.

Fast_Mover · 13-01-2007 5:06pm

Galway

Tipperary

Bateman · 13-01-2007 5:39pm

Dublin obviously. What an utterly pointless thread.

Car Mad · 13-01-2007 6:07pm

anywhere but cork also.
Waterford are the best besides hurling and football

Not even for the rebel spirit, ye'll probably give Dublin a run for their money on the most hated thread!!!:D

We love a good fight here in the wesht!

Nightwish · 13-01-2007 6:56pm

Wexford, because it has Hook Head - my most favourite place in the country.

Presumably he/she is from Tipperary but living in Kilkenny?

Where were you last September? :eek:

Rb · 13-01-2007 7:08pm

It really depends on what you're looking for from the county though, doesn't it? I mean, the west coast counties are certainly my favourite for a quite week or so, beautiful scenery, quiet pubs etc. whereas Cork or Galway are my favourites to go for a more active time, given that they have busy pubs/clubs, loads of students floating about. Cork has some beautiful scenery too, but the west coast is far more superior in that aspect.

Oh and I'm aware Galway is on the west coast btw

Scraggs · 13-01-2007 7:16pm

Carlow ftw.

Carlow appreciates your vote

I have to say I really like Cork, always liked what I seen there and great history!

Oh dear. That isn't an accent you have in Cork, it's an affliction.

Donegal has everything.

End of debate. Lock this thread now.

Even the highest poverty rate in Ireland! Well done Donegal

Just kidding (though its actually true, can't think of the source at the moment though), Donegals a lovely county.

No need to mention the corrupt Gardaí either

smashey · 13-01-2007 7:34pm

Ah yes, that old chestnut. Fancy a 4 bed semi for less than 200k?

Zonko · 13-01-2007 8:12pm

Ah come off it. You all know it's got to be Derry.

lodgepole · 13-01-2007 8:22pm

Kerry, Clare and Wicklow if I didn't need to work. But since I do, Dublin. I've never enjoyed Cork as a city, but West Cork is great country. Galway is nice but too small. I would live in Belfast too, if a city outside of the Republic counts in a poll on the most liked county.

exiot · 13-01-2007 8:34pm

I love Cork, havent explored much of the county as Im situated in the city for college, but its a great place.

I love Mayo as well.

event · 13-01-2007 8:43pm

obviously the wee county

I dont like Cork

I second Wexford don't forget Curracloe beach! I often stayed at Hook Lighthouse my uncle was keeper there. I also like Cork for the craic, people who say they don't like Cork are jealous (I'm not from Cork btw).

Port na Blagh used to be lovely but I haven't been there since the 1970's. Probably all built up now?

Sadly, yes. Its ridiculous the amount of holidays home that have sprung up there.
