    10mins to throw-in in Croke Park. I'm more nervous at the moment than I get before a race. Come on the DUBS.:D

    Just noticed Tingles name is no longer down as being a mod. Anyone know what the story is, I thought he was doing an excellent job. No doubts Rineanna will be a worthy replacement if thats the case. :confused:

    Fcuking culchies. :mad:

    Ah well, the homemade ice cream I was making during the first half will help soothe the pain.

    The comeback starts now


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭racheljev


    Oh my God, this match is killing me. OH and 2 kids gone to the match, no doubt there'll be tears on the way home:( And to top a perfect (yeah right) bank holiday, discovered mouse poo in the front room so spent the morning disinfecting the house. Btw, could Joe Brolly BE any smugger - the man is a pain in the a$$

    The Dubs are only playing with them. Any minute now. A few quick goals on the way.
    I think kerry must be ronaldo fans - the amount of diving going on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,612 ✭✭✭gerard65


    Sh1t sh1t sh1t. I'm going out for a long walk, I may not be back.
    Never let todays events be ever spoken about again.

    Oh, right :confused: I know he often considered himself somewhat restricted by his role as a mod. Hopefully he'll still be around to pitch in with his informed, intelligent and sometimes offbeat posts.

    Congrats on your promotion Rineanna!

    You then return to the news that we're selling Fabian Delph. :(

    Ye, its been on the cards. Can't get the exact fee but 7-8m has been mentioned, hopefully it'll be invested in some good players and not go into bates's back pocket.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,905 ✭✭✭misty floyd


    7m will go a long way if its invested in players.

    I'm still sick about yesterday. What a waste of time and money going to that. I wouldn't mind but I bought a package that includes tickets for the semi's. I had a feeling (like the rest of the country it seems) that Dublin might sneak it yesterday. How wrong. Looking forward to Cork V Tyrone though.

    Anyone else dying today?

    I'm dying of back to work syndrome. Unfortunately no hangover though, that would at least mean I had some scoopage over the weekend. I restricted myself to a few cans of Guinness Sunday evening.

    Dubs yesterday *snigger*

    Sorry lads... Couldn't resist!!

    Ah well there's always next year :rolleyes:

    I remember looking at stats a while back and aprt from the 70s and parts of the 80s Dublin have never won the All Ireland with any regularity. I think it was an average of one every 10 years or so. It's a bit longer now obviously.

    I was down in Kerry the weekend and the cute 'hoors were writing themselves off no end. I was having none of it and in hindsight I may have convinced the county they were unbeatable which based on yesterdays performance they are.

    By the way I'd love to hit that Joe Brolly prat a dig, did you see his hissy fit when Spillane cut across him yesterday.

    I wasn't watching. However, that bloke is a prat. He supports violence in sport.

    It's Ken Bates, it won't be invested in players. We owe Bradford 12% of the transfer fee. Best case scenario we buy back the training ground, but that won't happen either.

    You think you Leeds fans are after getting bad news:

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/mobile/bbc_sport/football/top_stories/818/81844/story8184444.shtml?

    It's a sad sad day, thanks xabi, can't blame you when rafa tried to offload you for journey man Barry, all hopes of a title next year leave with you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,082 ✭✭✭BeepBeep67


    Jayo heading to Birmingham hope we got a good price for him.

    Anyone freaked out by that body found in the park? I run in that location, regularly, on my own...with no phone or contact details etc on me. :eek:

    I'm about to go out there now, think I might bring my phone this time. :(

    Pretty horrible alright. On the news they said the body could have been there for 3 days. In fairness, its probably the safest place to train at the moment...lots of guards around I'd imagine. On the way there myself....I'll give ya a wave if we pass ;)

    Yep, fairly heavy stuff alright. I always have my phone with me - it has my music on it, but that's it. The nearest park to me is Fairview park and that's dodgy at the best of times - I won't run in it on my own cos I'm a wuss. It's concrete footpaths for me!

    The murdering counts ruined(and shortened) my route, had to cut through a car park and footy pitches to get home. :rolleyes:
