The Ireland 2023 Rugby World Cup Bid

They’ll have to build a motorway between Cork and Limerick as well. And between Waterford and Limerick.

Given that it’s a rugby tournament, gay escorts will also be required. A few of the No camp here could make a lot of money offering their services.

I don’t think the public quite grasp how poor games in the “amazing facilities for an amateur organisation” Gaelic Sports grounds will be.

Dick Spring references Fitzgerald Stadium (naturally, one eye on his nephews seat down there) as a location. Killarney would of course be a great location for games but has Dick Spring ever been to a game there? The place is essentially lumps of concrete. The extra distance from the pitch means the elevation of the “stands” is extra important. Anyone who went to Croke Park to view the association football and rugby football will agree it was a load of shit apart from maybe three games- Ireland-England, Leinster-Munster and the Rep of Ireland - Italy, I.e. games where the occasion and implications of the game overrided all else. The pitch was a mile away. What ever about sitting in the Hogan Stand for a rugby game, no thanks standing or sitting in an uncovered temporary seat like you will in Fitzgerald.

Adding to my revulsion at handing over more money to the GAA, the fact we will have 8 years of fawning over them sickens me.

Letting gays marry is enough to inflict on any country -why would we inflict these on our children?

The Sodomy World Cup must not happen in this country.

The roasters in the GGA are mugging off the IRFU yet again.

Surely your focus should be on banning re-entering through the back door in GAA? Your beloved Tyrone, especially their left corner back, like the back door, though.

again, pre the nation maturing at croke park gga football was the 8th most popular sport in oireland and rugby the 9th. post croke park thathas been reversed

Is dancing the most popular still or has walking taken over?

It must sting having your heroes come cap in hand to the GAA you Orange cunt.

I’m all for this if it means we get upgraded facilities. It’s hardly actually worth the money needed to invest though?

Do they plan on playing any of these games in a rugby stadium?

Lansdowne Road will be one.

That’s a football stadium

In what sense, bud?

Association football, mate

I see.

Incorrect.

Exactly. This bid is thankfully doomed

I believe fixie-ing now holds the top spot
