We vote for a new president next year. Perhaps jerry has his eye on the role?

They haven’t a hope of the presidency. They polled 13% last time and they pick up no transfers. Let’s keep it real, chaps.

PUT THAT IN THE R C THREAD

[Nembo_Kid]

Yeah.

No senior clubs in Derry from the City. The nationalist population in the city would make up probably over 50% of the nationalist population in the county so they do pretty well all things considered.

Tebbit is a Sir Jimmy Savile apologist. He’s a repugnant individual.

Tebbit sounds like a very unhinged individual

You’re a snake, you little prick.

[Fagan_ODowd]

Great stuff here on the News

I PICKED THAT UP WRONG SORRY @ChocolateMice

Of course I’m playing the man. Tebbit is well able to “look at both sides of the ledger” for a monstrous sexual predator of children.

He’s a hypocrite and a cunt. Fuck him.

[anon61956325]

Don’t let it happen again bud.

The nation is in mourning, pal. We have lost a brave brother.

Prime Time special. David McCulloch in Derry and Miriam (but Dana didn’t join the IRA) O’Callaghan in studio.

In fairness though, people are perfectly entitled to remain bitter and not to forgive, if that’s how they feel. I wouldn’t fault Norman Tebbit for taking the approach he took today.

Of course they are. Who said otherwise?

So was Gerry in fairness and I don’t remember Martin calling him out on it

[Nembo_Kid]

Very nice words from Denis Bradley.

@Tim_Riggins

Mhmm. Not sure the same forgive and forget, great to see reconciliation is what is needed now attitude, is afforded to the British Army on Bloody Sunday.

The British Army continues to occupy foreign soil and continues to whitewash murder by its members.

These are magnificent comments.

[myboyblue]

Very emotional.

I think the difference between English commentators and Unionist commentators is very noticeable today. England can’t shake their colonial superiority complex and their disgust at the idea they would be challenged by an upstart from Ireland. Those who endured the conflict in the six counties, on either side, are generally far more appreciative of his legacy.

Is his brother Big Tom McGuinness still the last man from Derry City to play county football?

Niall Holly is from Derry City as far as I know, but plays with Coleraine.
