Burns wants rid of Tricolour & Anthem to attract Protestants to GAA

[armaghniac]

Out of all the things a teenager would tweet about a politician would be pretty low on the list in my opinion.

Is your woman's face up on posters about the place?

[Nigel White]

No the first time Burns has made an ass of himself on twitter. His arrogance towards the people of Andytown was ridiculous!

[Syferus]

Such total nonsense.

[Tony Baloney]

I believe entirely that he tweeted it but I can see where he was going with it. I would say he was riffing on the fact her face was on the van without meaning it as a comment on her looks. If it was some good looking doll it would have been laughed off. I don't believe he meant it as a personal insult IMO.

Hardstation, "wider school community". Wiseabap.

Surely then he would have side that she had the back of van looking like her face?

I think that the where's and what fors of whether he posted it are pretty irrelevant. Whoever posted it has a cast iron defence...the truth is non libellous!

Jealousy of what exactly?

[Aaron Boone]

As an Ulsterman, I look fwd to when Jarlath takes the reins of the organisation.
Of that great Armagh team. himself & McGeeney are making major inroads nationally

I don't know. You tell me firstly what you have against him and we'll take it from there

Other than a fast track, one way ticket to Division Four, what major national inroad is McGeeney making?

Jarlath Burns to be fair to him, is making his voice heard at the top table of GAA administration. McGeeney has done what exactly?

[general_lee]

McGeeney has done what exactly?

Aye hasn't achieved anything. Don't even know why he's famous.

[ONeill]

He had a decent game in Omagh in 1997.

It's been concluded on other threads that McGeeney was a success at Kildare. The Armagh tole is a longer-term project, the pieces of the jigsaw are being put together on & off the field.

I think the reason many Northern Prods aren't interested in GAA is cos they don't really know who they are. A lot of settler colonial societies like the US and Israel for example have this problem. They tend to have very negative attitudes to anything the native population does in case it destroys their made up culture. Look at how the Feds treated Leonard Peltier or what lengths Israel goes to suppress Palestinian culture.
