A quick scan through your posts SnapChat and you are quite the white knight.  Your doing a brilliant job son, a brilliant job.

Are you OK with people using online anonymity to personally abuse/bully named GAA people?

Not really but here we are I guess, nobody said this world was perfect mate.

Im a Mickey Harte fan for what its worth.

Nor did I say it was perfect. But sure wouldn't it be that bit better if we didnt have people hiding behind online anonymity to personally abuse named GAA people? And sure wouldn't it be a small bit better if those who speak out against that sort of behaviour weren't mocked as "white knights" for doing so?

It's not I and others who bring this forum down. It's you pal!  Accusing me of bullying Mickey Harte. Is Mickey on this thread on a regular basis? Are you Mickey Harte? What exactly have I said that is bullying? You just seem to come out with the same crap. The problem is you don't like what I have to say and if their is bullying or abusive behaviour on my part I would be put off this forum quicker than you can say "Sean Cavanagh s book will fly off the shelves!" Harte might be able to control the Irish News, RTE or any other media because that's what I would call BULLYING. He won't be controlling me.

You have repeatedly mocked him for his religious beliefs, for one thing. Since when does such abusive behaviour count as rational, valid criticism on a football thread?

And no, I am not Mickey Harte. Online abuse does't just have the potential to hurt the person you are bullying. That person's innocent family and friends have the potential to be hurt just as much, if not more, than the intended target by anonymous online abuse. And no, I'm not a relation or friend of Mickey Harte. I am just someone who knows the effect bullying can have and who knows a bully when I hear one.

Don't be such a p***k Redhand88.  Are you 12?  You and a few others on here have been an absolute embarrassment to real Tyrone people! Some the stuff you have come out with since the Donegal game has been pure horse shit.
Hopefully the mods do their job.

It seems this applies to Snapchap aswell. Sad act

A sad act? What have I done? I haven't revealed anyone's identity. Mind you it is tempting to do so. It's something I would never even be tempted to do for anyone on this site with the exception of thebigdog (aka southtyronegael). I cannot abide cowards using a fake name online to dish out personal abuse about named GAA people. Criticise Harte all you want about football, but this contributor has a long history of making some seriously uncalled for, personally abusive comments about Harte on issues not even remotely related to the GAA. A cowardly little sc**bag that lives for doing that sort of thing to a fellow GAA person deserves to be named and shamed.

I wont name the person here, but if anyone feels like it, go for it. Perhaps it might entice the lowlife to stop using online anonymity to essentially attempt to bully and belittle people out in the real world.

Funny that, your post seems to have changed from when I seen it last. The name seems to have disappeared? Firstly, the whole point of the forum is anonymity or did you miss that when you signed up? Secondly, you and the rest of the cronies drawing up conspiracy theory sh**e about people using two accounts, you go home and let it bother you that much that you  feel the need to act like a vigilante, to me, that makes you a sad act. Not everyone thinks the sun shines out of hartes arse. Get over it. And no I'm not his third account before you start rambling that nonsense too.

Nope. Only part of a name was posted. A first name. A very common name so not revealing anyone's identity.

And if you were familiar with my posts you would know I'm not a big fan of Harte let alone "thinking the sun shines out of his arse".

I am simply stating that I have no time for little cowards hiding behind anonymity to personally abuse named individuals, let alone GAA people. It's petty, vindictive, cowardly bullying and a form of bullying that has as much potential to cause serious upset to the family of the abused person as much as to the person himself and any little cowardly rat that takes pleasure in doing it deserves to be exposed.

Theres something perverse about asking mods to protect someone who uses this forum to regularly personally abuse a person on matters totally non related to football,but not askimg the mods to deal with the person for their behaviour.

Actually what I told you was to get over the fact that not everyone does. The fact you showed a fb post and used it to back up is sort of contradictory to your anonymity argument if he's posting the same stuff on a social media site with his name on it?

No really, no. The content of the facebook post was not something I had as much of an issue with and I have withthe more personal, vindictive abuse being posted anonymously under his two accounts here.

[because his bestie didn't get a big job on the TV station.]

Why do you think their are problems in attack? Mickey s poor tactics. The RTE boycott has been going on now since 2011 for no apparent reason other than Mickey didn't like getting ridiculed because his bestie didn't get a big job on the TV station. Looks like Harte comes first in Tyrone and f**k the players and their moment in the sun.

Spreading the message across facebook too, are we?

yes that's me break open the champagne!!

Now we're getting places, B. Time to accept that 'southtyronegael' is you also? Or are you still going to deny that, even after that little mix up with the logins last week?

Sadly, rural Tyrone is saturated by this poison among our young people. I have zero sympathy for any little toerag that ever indulges in the stuff. Aside from the decision to let themselves down by taking it, they are also letting down their families and their communities down, because drugs destroy these things. Anyone in rural mid-Tyrone will know of the stories of devastation that cocaine has brought to a number of families in recent times. And aside form letting down themselves and their families, they are also lining the pockets of drug dealing vermin. While it's great to have a peace process, it has to be acknowledged that in rural Republican areas like mid Tyrone, there was a proudly zero tolerance attitude to drug users and dealers, and people here grew up through those times proud to live in areas free from the poison. To any young person using cocaine - take a good f***ing look at yourself.

Was that the same republicans dealing the stuff out to the young people while adopting a zero tolerance attitude to their competition?

Was going to say that, plenty 'Ra men' would be dabbling in coke, and blow..

plenty poison out there being sold to people thats legal! Drink and cigs cause as much death if not more that Coke! I suppose that's a different story

Maybe in Belfast (no doubt you are more qualified to talk about there than me) but in rural Tyrone villages during the years of the troubles, it was republicans who kept areas completely free from drugs.

In rural Tyrone, it was the republicans who kept the areas supplied. It was different types of drugs at that time but lets not kid ourselves, the local "RA" was up to their necks in it.

Ecstasy and Speed was rife in nearly every village and town throughout Tyrone the mid to late 90s. So they weren't doing a very good job 

Jesus wept, what sort of bullshiters are on this site

[It is done in an effort to politicise the GAA nothing more, nothing less.]

Anyone who honestly thinks this isn't mainly beng used as a proxy for wee six political buffoonery needs to reasses the situation.

If you want to support the Palestinian cause the thing not to do is make them a prop in a political disagreement half way around the world. Do something that actually helps.

Anyone who thinks that those bringing Palestinian flags to matches is doing so just to annoy "themuns" has their head firmly wedged up their own a55. If people wanted to fly Palestinian flags to annoy unionists, don't you think they could pick somewhere better than a GAA ground, where the number of unionists available to offend would be fairly negligible? Have you considered why the proliferation of the flags at matches tends to be larger in the wake of instances of increased Israeli brutality?

How do you know those bringing Palestine flags to matches aren't also "doing something that actually helps" (leaving aside the fact that merely flying the flag is helpful to raise awareness)? I have  had a Palestine flag to matches before and have made numerous donations to Medical Aid for Palestine and been involved in several Gaza aid programmes. Do you think I do that in order to stick two fingers up to my Protestant neighbours? John brings his flag to games too and he has personally delivered a lorry load of aid to Gaza. Was he just doing that to stick two fingers up at Protestant neighbours? Away and cop yourself on, you absolute halfwit.

I doubt whether "themmuns" are watching GAA matches that much so no it isn't the reason it is done. It is done in an effort to politicise the GAA nothing more, nothing less.
Anyone who wants to fly the Palestinian flag by all means fly it outside your house, wave it about when you go shopping or are taking the missus for a bite to eat.
Just leave it outside of Clones or any other GAA ground for that matter.

Again, you confuse humatarianism with politicism. As I've said before, some of the most effective protests against South African apartheid were done through the medium of sport. Was that wrong too? Or does the fact that it contributed to raising awareness and contributed to the ending of apartheid mean it was a worthwhile thing to have done? Expressing humanitarian concern is not political and it should be a welcome gesture in any forum, be it a sporting one or otherwise.

[impossible]

The Palestinian people have more than enough to put up with without being pulled into the small petty world that is Northern Irelan politics.

Fellas can witter on here about justice but this is nothing more than an extension of the republican/loyalist feud which sees one side waving Palestinian flags while the other waves flags from the State of Israel. The irony of slagging loyalists about "flegs" while getting all het up about this is priceless.

Lads ye're fooling no one with this nonsense & outside committed republicans you have no support for this crap inside GAA grounds,

If you are so naive as to believe that the motivation for this is anything remotely to do with six county politics, then you need to go away and have a good lie down to yourself. Your implication appears to be that we in the six counties are a bunch of sectarians and everything we do is framed by sectarianism. I could quite as easily throw an insult back at you and suggest that the folk of the 26 counties a are utterly spineless, have no principles beyond wealth accumulation, and find the very notion of people having publically expressing genuine empathy and solidarity for the plight of others as just incomprehensible. Do you think it is a mere coincidence that Palestinian flags at matches (particularly in Ulster) become more prevalent in the aftermath of an escalation of Israeli violence?

P.s. There was a petition handed in to Ulster GAA last week with the signatures of over 1,200 GAA members in support of the right to fly the Palestinian flag. Are you suggesting that they are all "committed republicans" and that that's the only reason they signed the petition? Away and cop yourself on.

Stand for nothing, and you'll fall for anything.

You obviously know nothing about history and especially the history of Irish Republicanism as anti Semite & indeed pro Nazi during WW2. I'm not going to bother rhyming it out for you here as I have better things to be doing but here's a link.

Face facts, you are being used here by people who couldn't care less about the Palestinians & whose only aim is to politicise the GAA. Where are the flags for the Rohyinga Muslims, where are the flags for all the oppressed peoples in Africa & Central America?

This has nothing to do with compassion for Palestinians & everything to do with hatred of Israel & the Jewish people in general & the vast majority of Irish people are not so stupid as to be taken in by it.

So it's impossible to oppose the inhumane treatment of the Palestinian people for reasons other than sectarian hatred of Jews? Again away and cop yourself on you absolute f***ing tube.

Good man Snapchap, when you run out of arguments the old fallback position of abuse is always handy. Away you go now & ask Gerry/Slab/Michelle/Mary-Lou what the official position is & come back to me, there's a good lad.

When you genuinely believe that it is impossible for anyone to have genuine sympathy for Palestinians and when you believe that everyone who claims to be sympathetic to them is only motivated by a sectarian hatred of jews, then you deserve all the personal abuse you get and more.

If you can show me where I said that it is impossible for anyone to have genuine sympathy for Palestinians or that anyone who claims to be sympathetic to them is only motivated by sectarian hatred then I will eat my own fee. These are your words not mine.
If you look carefully at my first post I said that the people of Palestine have enough to put up with without being used by people with other agendas.

You stated that those flying the flags were motivated by "the small petty world that is Northern Irelan politics" and that those flying the flag "have no support for this crap inside GAA grounds" except for from "committed republicans". When you say "no support" that sound fairly emphatic to me. It appears to be your view that it is impossible for any of these people to have genuine empathy for the Palestinian plight. You then stated fairly emphatically that someone flying the Palestinian flag "has nothing to do with compassion for Palestinians & everything to do with hatred of Israel & the Jewish people". If that's not you claiming it is impossible for anyone to have genuine sympathy for Palestinians without being motivated by anti-antisemitism, then I don't know what is. 

And as long as anyone who dares publicly show support for Palestinians is labelled by you as just being anti-semetic, then your petty, token reference to the "terrible time" Palestinians are having sounds exceptionally hollow.
