You’d forget how fucking STEEPED we were in that game. Dunne was a bombscare with the ball at his feet, Kelly’s stupid pass for Kluiverts chance, then his stupid sending off, the Staunton backheader. The Dutch were completely mugged off. You’d also forget how well Roy did for the McAteer goal.

A great day all the same, pissed a fart in Slane shouting at Nelly Furtado to get off the fucking stage so we could watch the second half.

  • Ash flying into their set with Burn Baby Burn and the place rocking like fuck
  • Moby congratulating the Irish team on winning the European championships
  • Half the squad joining U2 on stage (I may have imagined this)

What. A. Day.

Went to see Ash in Oxegen in 2010 and there was fuck all there. Great band.

I remember well my grandmother - God rest her - as she passed through the parlour with a freshly baked tray of currant scones saying: “well that was the flukiest goal I’ve ever seen”

On the 2nd Sept 2009 Frank Murphy announced that he wouldn’t stay on in the Cork county board beyond 2011. Today the 2nd Sept 2016 is the 7th anniversary of that announcement.
Happy Anniversary Mr Murphy.

Did she have her tea in a mug?

Frank was looking very trim today. His new lease of life has done him wonders.

Any fucker with a modicum of athleticism could do that but it takes a fucking eejit and publicity hungry cunt to try it in a match, it wasn’t even a fucking shot anyway.

Jesus you’re a joyless cunt sometimes.

Coming from you that is genuinely laugh out loud funny, I’m sure you’re different in the real world but you are in the top three miserable cunts on a website that prides itself on the calibre of such.
Cop onto yourself and if you’re insistent on having a go at me make it fucking relevant anyway you fool. :sweat_smile:

I was trying to sugar coat it for him a bit, he gets enough of a kicking around here, didn’t want to push him over the edge for fear he’d be found hanging by the shoelaces from one of his tackies. I’m a people person me.

Not sure you deserved that volley of abuse from him though, it was out of line to address a senior forum member like that.

He is irrelevant so it doesn’t matter. Thanks for your concern though.

Irrelevant, you’re such a meanie :smile:
