The 'dinosaurs' you were supporting no time ago? Have some respect for the auld smarts of the coins about here Brendan.

Not exactly Francie, you see, let’s say I for instance was say a Monaghan supporter and let’s say Ray McCarron and Nudie Hughes were sterling players throughout the years as they were but maybe were getting a step slower,would I stop supporting The Farnies?

Of course not.

Would I be pleased to see new blood coming in to replace the slowing Ray and Nudie, of course I would.

Would I have any less respect or support for Ray and Nudie of course not.

It’s about moving on and keeping things fresh, Francie.

You should try it sometime, get your head out of flags and emblems and the smell of the heather clad hills and the last century.


*Those lads named just used as example, no personal reference intended.

Just well known names.

Yeh but listen here Brendan...would I be calling Ray and Nudie the pejorative term 'dinosaurs'?

No I wouldn't, because I am not a coin who likes to run with the hare and hunt with the hound on dem heather clad hills, either this century or the last one, like some scones about here. Get the drift?

SF on the sidelines for 5 years, Middle Ireland has spoken loud and clear.

Time to move on into 2020.

Bren, they can't. I wish they would but it's all they have. I wouldn't mind if they simply brought them into the discussion but it's all nasty stuff often not related to the topic.

That doesn't make it right, but its a global issue.

It's the same/worse elsewhere isn't reason for doing nothing or making matters worse. Same goes for health.
If is was big companies or millionaires in distress they'd move mountains.

Can the thread title be renamed? Should read "SF to shout from the sidelines for the next 5 years"

That’s all you’ve got? Pathetic
SF are the party nominating a racist homophobe for a high level position - they are a lot more related to the National party than any other.

Your insinuations of gene pool, etc are just childish attempts to deflect attention from your lot.

Your support the party of anti vaxers, anti Semites, 5G conspiracy theorists and now racist honophobes.

As Francie would say- own it

Just jumped in for a bit of whataboutery?
Fine Gael Councilor O'Leary admired the Blueshirts in a tweet and likened their resolve to present day Fine Gael.
Holohan is an ejit but not an admirer of fascists and likely not a racist. Doesn't absolve him but keep context and cut the hypocrisy. Or will you be giving out about O'Leary too?
SF policy is on making things better for asylum seekers.
Varadkar courted former FG'er Verona Murphy who was looking to create re-education camps.
FG policies are more in line with the NP. NP policies go back to FG's roots.
Hypocrisy again, will you be listing the FG'er anti vaxxers, the fact FG have history with antisemitism even a TD on record spouting it in the Dail, (Oliver J. Flanagan)? Will you f*** :rolleyes:
Own it.

How about 'SF relishes going into opposition for 5 years unless they are presented an opportunity to share power by a pandemic'?

Starting would speed up the process.
Continuing with policies make it worse will drag it out.

Taxing site profits heavily would keep land prices down, tying house values and rental rates to energy rating could also be used to lower prices, rest of economy suffers if too much of income is being ate up by accommodation costs

Seriously are we trying to turn Irish politics into the same discourse that goes on in American?
Irish millennials are disgusted they don’t live in America so they could justify their phoney outrage.

Hold on horse cut the baloney. This is a response to FG'ers dodging criticism.
If people are going to try change the discussion to being hypocritical about any other party it should be pointed out.
I agree about the phoney outrage. It gets used a lot and plays into my point about hypocrisy.
"Irish millennials are disgusted they don't live in America"? People are complex and have complex issues to deal with. I think millennials have it very tough. Buying a house is a dream they may never fulfill. Rent is impossible for some. Global financial crisis and global pandemic. Not to mention ever decreasing benefits and having had to deal with zero hour contracts. Kids, am I right? :rolleyes:

The most privileged generation in history have it tough according to you? You are a caricature of yourself.

If you want to start digging up dirt and talking about the history of political parties then you have to face up to the history of SF. So in that context, anything you come up with about FF FG pales in comparison to the **** that SF are up to their neck in and still wading through.

If you are going to ignore most of my comment and take the remainder out of context why should I take your hypocritical diversion seriously?
O'Leary is a FG councilor now. Where's the outrage from FG?

It's obvious all FG have is attacking the electorate and SF.
FG should really examine that.

Is this the manufactured outrage over that tweet. Another example of a millennial trying to wrench something out of context to justify their phoney outrage. Anyone who is capable of tying their own shoes knows that he was referring to SF IRA but you and many other millennials chose to get outraged because the fashion is to call everyone a nazi these days.

Gardai burned the van in the Lunny case and not a murmur from Flanagan or Drew Harris, there's been numerous headline worthy incidents the last few months that should have been used to hold FG to account but were played down by a cuckolded media, country has changed for the worse in the last while,

As I expected.
Every other party on the ballot? You make it sound like there’s 40 of them!
You should probably harness all your anger into something more productive to be honest

If this government lasts, FG's consecutive time in government will pass out the Bertie governments soon and will be about two years off the FF monopoly from the 1930s by the end of it.
