Who’d attack us? Everyone loves potatoes

We’ll see how brave the pretend IRA are then.
Those lads will still be on their bar stools… the real RA will mobilize.
Fighting with Her Majesty’s forces when they come to our aid.
Fighting with Who?
The Ra and Óghlaigh na hÉireann.
I got that part … I’m unfamiliar with who they would be fighting against -
So long as her majesty’s forces don’t arrive in D4 and threaten their bestest barkeep with a potato gun,
Who knows?
As a historian are you not aware enough that the world shifts and new issues emerge all the time?
The Irish State went off and negotiated secrets deals with the U.K. as we are too childish as a nation to have this debate.
If Russia gets knocked out of the world cup by a dodgy decision by some western European cunt ref, you better hoard some of those potatoes.
I have no issue with us having military agreements in place with our near neighbours. That makes complete sense.
Fuck up.
+1. Unfortunately we lost some of the genuinely funny posters from that era like @The_Runt, @The_Puke and @The_Dunph whose escapades were always engaging rather than Dermot & Dave style wacky, zany banter.
Other witty lads like @TreatyStones, @Big_Dan_Campbell and @Smark settled down and posted less, and this coincided with an influx of boring housewife types chirping away inanely across the forum.
Plus it was a disgrace what the admins did to @HBV.

The decline of the forum can be traced to the removal of the funny/well clamped ratings system. A funny rating was like a sideline cut sailing over the bar and lads flush with confidence would start cutting loose before falling on their faces. A well clamped rating would cause lads to seethe for days and lash out uncontrollably

How sad are you?
I hear Bono is wearing the green jersey this week. Victory is surely ours.
American soldiers wore uniforms in Shannon town without Irish government approval
They can bring whatever they want in and out of Shannon but we are drawing the line at a few of them walking around in their uniforms
Anyone can bring whatever they want into Shannon airport. I have landed there countless times and hardly ever seen a customs official. I’d say the chances of getting caught with a suitcase of blow is less than 1%.
