I suspect its the American version which its become that upsets the silly old cunt more than anything.
You do know Halloween orginated in Ireland (or at least amongst the Celts)?
It’s not our fault the yanks ruin everything they get their hands on.
Lets hope they get their hands on Sean and Gail.
It’s supposed to have come from Samhain- I have good time for any of those festivals from ancient cultures that have a healthy respect for the dead, ie. Samhain in the Celtic world, Dia de las Muertes for the Hispanics and the Chinese- ( the older Chinese consult dead relatives for pretty much everything)

Yes runt, of course I do. It hardly currently bears any resemblance to what our ancient forefathers celebrated, though we probably have the church to blame for that as well.
One of your aliases must be due one soon Gman?
Anyone read that stuff about The Journal expanding? As part of the process, they’re upgrading the sport side of things. This involves thescore.ie being relaunched under a new name. Yes, wait for it…it’ll be known as The42. This signifies GAA’s Rule 42 which was set aside to allow association and rugby football to be played in Croke Park. The PR spiel goes on about that decision marking a sea change in Irish sport and how the discerning Irish sport fan has grown and evolved since that time. As a result, they think The42 perfectly captures the type of person who reads The Score at the moment. Fucking retards.

:mad: - the hipsters have jumped the shark baby
Our audience has a wide interest in sport. They’re on the Hill for the All-Ireland, in Cardiff for the Six Nations and on the couch for Sunday Night NFL. The watershed moment for this modern Irish sports fan was the relaxation of Rule 42 to welcome international soccer and rugby to Croke Park. We chose The42 as a hat-tip to this new generation of Irish sports fan, who are digitally-savvy, engaged, passionate and want to be at the heart of the social conversation.
I dont frequent the site anyway, but that for sure would make sure I wouldnt.
This place here is even more diversified with its sports, yet you dont see rocko coming up with stupid names or constantly tinkering with a website for the sake of it.
Anybody who uses the term “hat tip” is an unmitigated cunt. The wankstains on joe.ie are cunts for it.
Yes they are mate, yes they are.
In all fairness the 42 wouldn’t be that far removed from the 51.
We are still against garrison games being played at Croke Park and the singing of that stupid song.
Yes. Both for cunts.

Watch it.
There’s only one person on here qualified to talk about the Celts - or at least their mentality.
Would you ever fuck off
One of the reasons I have grown to hate air travel - the absolute failure of common sense/abdication of all personal autonomy so that once you cross airport door to when you leave an airport it seems it is a “computer says” mentality where people park their faculties for thinking. Guy makes a silly joke in provate and all of a sudden he is facing criminal charges.
This case regarding the “Ebola” scare is demonstrative

Judge Anthony Halpin said he could not think of a more serious offence given the present day fear of Ebola.
