@Tim_Riggins you’ve been a poster here as long as I can remember and I have never seen you being foul-mouthed vindictive or willfully disrespectful to anyone here. You are a rugby man with a first rate knowledge of the game which is to be highly respected by anyone. Don’t be rising or unsettling yourself for these clowns.

Very well said

Even syntax is breaking down now in the solvent of your stupidity and ego.

@Malarkey

The fact that RD is immensely successfully is neither here nor there

???

This is a spendid back and forth between @Malarkey and @Tim_Riggins.

@ChocolateMice’s failed efforts to become relevant on the thread are embarrassing.

Can’t argue with seeth increasing ones inability to type " real good ".

@Malarkey

To answer a direct question

Finally.

The above is not what he said in the linked article though. He said the GGA was basically a load of soccer supporters waiting for the new season to start and the GGA engaged in propoganda given all of the empty stadiums. He never drew a distinction between football and GGA fans, in fact he connected them.

You are simply making things up to fit into your Irish nationalism zealotry. Argue what he said and don’t just default to your defensive Irish nationalist reflex language.

Your shoehorning of revisionism in here is telling. It has nothing to do what he said but the use of the word is the norm for those who don’t want to debate. You’re the one who brought up “colonisation” and pointed out his association football fandom, you are raging. As I said, when accusing others of having a chip on their shoulder, have a look in the mirror.

I also see that you managed to quote me three times overnight in replies when I wasn’t on here. One letter to the editor should be enough.

[Tim_Riggins]

You must have missed the US politics thread then.

You’re lucky to be honest.

[grapes]

A pit of political theory Tim.

Ah, I was wondering when we would reach the Christian Brothers reference… You are to predictability what Jacob Rees-Mogg is to enunciation, a marked excess of tone over content.

Was not taught by Christian Brothers, sorry. Lay teachers, all the way. Unlike you, more to the point, I was taught by myself. You and received opinions are like Robert Kilroy-Silk and fake tan. Smeared all over, both cases.

Myself, I just happen to like hurling and the GAA in the same way I like drinking Chateau Musar with roast woodcock. Both activities are a highly enjoyable way of spending pockets of time.

I am not giving you advice, unless showing someone up for an idiot is giving them advice.

Which it might be, if you were not carrying the anvil of your own ego.

my god that’s an unreal post there

Am I getting deja vu all over again?

Whatever means necessary.
