AFR - Disgraceful Scenes

:clap:

Oh mate, how can you, of all people, give credence to a ruggerhoof persons opinion.
You changed man, you changed.

Taking his ball and going home. For good.

Mad stuff. €15K a year in hard costs for a site like that :strokechin:

The point about running the risks with libel is probably fair but not sure how that risk has increased…

In other news, TFK is now an “anachronism” :guns: :guns: :guns:

What will dubliner2 do now?

Seems to be a shakedown. But a registration fee would get rid of the multiple aliases I suppose.

I don’t know, but I imagine, whatever it is, it’ll be very very boring.

Was reading it today for the first time in weeks and had a good laugh, some lad asked on the Electric Picnic thread, “Where’s shannonsider?”, batter burger replied with “About three feet up his own arse”.

It’s a shame Liam was so unsuited to moderation of it, he was hostile, self-pitying and incredibly childish. He just loved talking down to people. No one was ever entitled to an explanation or even notice why they were banned or a thread pulled. He was much too involved in posting on it and then couldn’t take any of the stick that entails. He was brilliant at taking the high moral ground on things like funerals and deaths and stuff like that. If a fella merely asked when had a match been rescheduled for after a fella had died or something he was met with a “How dare you, have you no respect etc etc” The closure notice is typical of his style, woe is me, ye’ve no idea how hard everything is, respect my authority etc etc.

Look at me, look at me, look at me.

Christ he’s such an oul woman Liam. I note his dramatic notice does not include a date on which this apocalypse will happen.

Up your bollox one and all.

Any chance we could get this batter burger lad posting over here - he seems to know the score

Well there is a fella blatantly harping for sponsorship if I ever saw it.

For fuck sake.

The Link maybe needed around here if the rats come crawling.

Well there hasn’t been a post on there since the notice went up so I’m assuming it’s closed already?

How the hell does it cost €15k a year to run a site like that?

Perhaps Rocko could offer advice on a range of merchandising etc

No way does it cost 15k to run, what is the most basic of sites out there. He’s crying out for someone to sponsor the site and “keep it running”.
Haven’t been on there in years but know a few lads that are on there every single day posting away.

I remember Mairegangaire giving me the lowdown a few years ago on how AFR came about after. I also remember her telling me that Cahill had spunked a load of money in trying to get it off the ground just before the dotcom bubble burst. Sure didn’t he used to take out full page ads in the programs at Croke Park on A/I final day and what not in the early days

i assume we wont be taking any new members in the short term in case any of the mongs come here

this place is a lot worse since the last waves of tards arrived from over there

haha, fucking brilliant! chief arselickers SLR and D2 must be absolutely devastated! The slurrypit is now closed!

Get the rifle yeah? we are about to get fucked!
