RIP Paidi O'Shea

A nice bit of nostalagia Dunph

yeah, very touching

spot on sandymount - Paidi didnt concede too many scores in the finals. He probaby scored more than he conceded. Tough as nails.

they will to the jingle jangle of celtic crosses.

:lol:

the shit our fellas coming on here with their " i met him when i was a young lad " shit and other type of fawning is disgusting.
Nothing worse than people trying to claim some assocaition with the deceased by coming up with some neither here nor there old crap.
The guy was a bollux, end of, it is generally accepted that he was , he was a thug on and off the pitch and all this " greatest sportsman of all time rubbish" is both insulting to him and many more who have gone before him.
Its terrible that a young man has passed away so soon to xmas but spare us the bullshit please and leave it at that

Edgy.

His ā€˜journalismā€™ was complete pish too

great gaa manā€¦ and with 8 all ireland medals there can be no doubt a great irish sportsmanā€¦a rogue in the nicest sense of the wordā€¦on the pitch a full blooded hardy bastardā€¦ i think paidi won 5 all irelands at wing back and in later years 3 at corner backā€¦

Its understandable that the high plains drifters like TASE and Mickee4by2 couldnĀ“t relate to a man like Paidi who proudly stayed true to Irish roots ā€¦

youā€™ve been listening to Pat Spillane

iĀ“d never listen himā€¦

the only interaction i ever had with him was when he told a companion to fuck off after he approached himself, tomas, marc and someone else eating a plate of spuds and pints of milk which was possibly after training during his managerial reign. saw him a few other times in the pub and he could be gruff enough.

id be neutral on him though and if anything id have a borderline fondness, never understood the dislike for the man and assume it was for his connection to FF but fuck that. his record in football speaks for itself and at that age it is always tough for the family, there will be some amount of horseshit filling the pages this comming week though and be braced for billy keane and other such characters to get ample airtime in the process

ā€¦and a winning punch

President Michael D. Higgins leading the tributes.

Would Michael D. honestly have known who he was?

It really doesnā€™t matter a fuck. Itā€™s the office of the President that is paying tribute, not the person.

Fucking hell. You have to laugh at that. :lol: :pint:

Brilliant. The ref slipping in the middle of it just adds to the comic value. :lol:

Didnā€™t even get sent off. :lol:

Oā€™Seā€™s reaction is comical. Like a little child that done something naughty :lol:

This is what i love about the internet :mad: ,head into any pub in Dingle tomorrow night and see how you get on talking this way about a man you dont even know,youā€™ll get yer teeth sent down yer neck for you,thats not going to happen though because pale faced nerds from the internet dont do things like that.

All evidence suggests that Paudi O Se was a brilliant Kerry man who did a huge amount for the promotion and betterment of his locality as a tourist destination and was involved in many aspects of Kerry life.I was in his pub in Ventry last Summer for lunch,he was there for the 2 Hours or so i was in the pub and didnt bother putting any talk on me,i didnt give a shite about that but enjoyed the food and the atmosphere in the place.Needy Spastics coming on here saying things like ā€œhe wasnt nice to me when i went in to the pubā€ :lol: :rolleyes:

Id have huge respect for the man as a GAA man and as a person,who gives a fuck if he was dirty on the field,i certainly dont,may the great man rest in peace.
