Apparently the French were able to buy a few tickets in the French embassy. The caveat is that you canât have any Irish gear of any sort on. Basically like their version of buying GAA tickets in SuperValu.
I have always attempted to highlight hypocrisy and counter the egotistical indulgence of prominent posters and my reputation for speaking truth to power is one I cherish. However a family member once advised me ;âhey Funtime if your gonna take aim at a moderator youâd better not missâ so although I am committed to continuing the good fight , it is with a sense of trepidation I write these words.
Nobody has a monopoly on the analysis and critique of Michael Francis Johnston, also known as mikey Johnston. I and others have as much right to form opinions on his current contributions and future potential within the Ireland setup. We have been treated to a petulant and self indulgent display by moderator @Bandage who exudes an âIâm the only mickey Johnston authority in the villageâ vibe. Rather than simply say he was an exciting talent and played well against Latvia prominent poster and moderator @Bandage needs to ensure we all interpret his performance through the prism of bandages lived experiences of watching him. âHeâs erratic â / âthis one time away to Hamilton he was good one minute , bad The next â / âonly I know the truth about mieky Johnstons ankle injury historyâ.
One feels that said poster has had the mercurial ( some might say mcgeadyesque ) talent under his nose for multiple seasons to review at Celtic before his recent loan but had failed to mark our cards about him, and he is reluctant to credit the winger now on foot of his impressive debut lest the forum ask âwhy did our man in the SPL not sound the alarm sooner?â.
Said moderator is now hedging his bets by saying MJ is capable of doing well but the coneisseur will realise itâs unlikely to be consistent.
Hereâs hoping Mikey leaves our esteemed moderator with an omelette on his face after the French match
