Huh?

Didn’t realise we had so many Nuala and Mary’s on the forum.

Gas cunts

I’ve just seen footage on RTE1 of at least two current posters here when they were contestants on the Calor Gas Housewife Of The Year competition.

Gas cunts indeed.

The young offenders stalk Kyler’s dreams

I don’t understand getting drunk for a hurling match. The sport is too fast, you’d miss the most of it and wouldn’t recall half of it after. A pint before to soak up the atmosphere maybe. Pints after to chat back through it are great.

I think I’d a big feed of pints watching the WC final between Brazil and Germany in 2002 in some pub in Cork before we lost the Munster Final to Waterford. I was on the terrace :grimacing:.

I’d say I’ve never had more than a few before a game of hurling since.

Waterford even, they were brilliant that day

Apologies I meant to say Waterford!!

Ah sure we are all old man shouting at clouds now.

When we were young we’d get busses to a match and it may as well have been a stag

I’ve seen up close and personal the ‘element’ of the Limerick terrace support and it’s an embarrassment. Drunk, legless townie gobshites who wouldn’t know whether a sliotar was stuffed or pumped. Soccer chanting, goading opposition parents/kids returning to cars after games, fighting among themselves, and the overriding feeling is that they’re an embarrassment. I’ve seen them in Ennis in particular, in Thurlas and in Croke Park. God knows where they get their tickets because they’re not hurling for clubs.

I’ve also noticed the recent surge in support for Cork has carried with it a completely different element, more boisterous, more aggressive, more confrontational. A friend who works in law enforcement, ahem, has seen cocaine use among this cohort in PUíC. Young lads be young lads the world over and I’ve no doubt it’s not just a Cork thing… It’s the same on the Hill, probably the same among the Limerick townies, but, for all the games I’ve attended, I have definitely noticed a marked increase such boorishness from our soft, southern West Brit friends from Cork.

As usual you’re spot on.

I’m not talking about the scoreboard boys at all. Shur we all did a bit of that… there’s a very aggressive and yobbish following following amongst the Corks currently. And it’s a large element.

There is only one man who can sort these young Munster ruffians out. Give him a call lads. This sort of hand wringing needs a national platform.

Will Cork show their hand this week, or is it still too soon?

Lehane and Cahalane to be named on the XV.

Game changer. Cork won’t win this All Ireland without Lehane
