Yes. I misread the post a nearly tripped us up. Which they nearly did in 04
I do. I was talking about the 1980ās.
I was responding to foley
The adrenaline rush in Hampden Park two weeks ago when Tom Rogic scored the injury time winner for Irelandās XI was far greater than that experienced during the closing stages in Wexford Park last Saturday. As an aside, a world renowned football administrator did me a favour recently and didnāt say anything about it. In all seriousness, I was delighted for the students, teachers and student teachers getting their just rewards at the weekend for mastering their hobby since last winter.

Itās hard to blame a move to Dublin. Lots of people do it and still remain authentic to their roots.
When a lad is simply regurgitating whatever terminology āthe ladsā are bandying about, thatās a fairly good indicator as to what his character is like. Example: ālife partnerā, āstick hurlingā, etc. Youād suspect that if the lads did an about face and started following rugby, heād be all over that too.
Nicely called out on it too by @maroonandwhite.

Which one of them should I make an example of?
Some no mark Australian who most Aussies wouldnāt recognise is enough to set your pulse racing. Is it because he has a nice smile?
No, mate. Itās because he sealed the unbeaten treble and confirmed Celtic 2016/17 as inVIncible.
A Scottish PLC over a game that his people have played for over 2000 yearsā¦ The Irish were enjoying hurling before the fictional story of Jesus was even pennedā¦ But your man would turn his back on his whole identity for a corporate whoreā¦ A telling indication of his character.
Steady on, pal. Iām not turning my back on my Wexford comrades - sure I follow them home and away in both codes in league and championship.
Who was talking about you ?
The whole lot of them @Bandage,nip it in the bud now, their pack mentality is gathering momentum and god knows what theyāll do if left unchecked.

Thatās what makes it more unforgiveable. You could understand why a self loathing wanabee tan would prefer an association football team to win but ure a big hurling fan. Maybe if u were from Kilkenny and bored of winning. There arenāt many things better in life than seeing your club win a county final or your county win all ireland. Iāve been lucky enough to see my county win in both codes (small ball trumps the fuck out of football).

Iāve seen Faythe Harriers win the 2001 Wexford senior final and Iāve seen Wexford win the 1996 All Ireland senior final. But Iāve never seen Celtic win the European Cup. Iād also place my desire to see Ireland winning the Euros above the hurling.

If Celtic do win it you will not be as happy as u were in 96 or when u won the county title.
How dare you. Tommy Rogic is a national treasure and one of the most popular people in Australia.
But I take your point about @Bandage
