The kiddy fiddling perverts that you admire so much have been rumbled. Suck it up.

And they were the only ones ever to do the like eh?
You come across as  one narrow minded bitter little maneen

I'm always amazed in RTÉ  interviews at the deference shown by interviewers towards C of I clerics compared to the at best off hand but usually hostile tone towards Catholic clerics.
As for those clerics speaking at the hate filled bigotfests tomorrow .... I suggest they read their Bibles and see where Christ said the most important Commandment was to love your neighbour.

They are all upset because the nasty Parades Commission didn't give the poor spoiled children what they wanted.
They'll now scweam and scweam till they make themselves sick(er).
Meanwhile of course if the Orange Order's sc**bag followers cause trouble it's all the Parades Commission's fault.
Ya couldn't make it up.

Do any of you fancy a pint before the game on sat? Tony F is buying the first round

You'll be waiting some time then!!!!

Hopefully he'll cross the bridge and I can accept his offer in Glancy's 

All Ros posters and syferus?

Rossfan and Syferus.

Not any more - he's on my ignore list now 
But just in case I've got Mike Sheehy in my corner 

In your biased opinion.

Can you imagine how many votes a candidate/party would get if they said they'd increase all taxes by 5% and reduce all Social Welfare/Health/Education and other public spending by 10% and spelled out what exactly that would mean in practical terms?

*Does the God Squad not feel a bit embarrassed by the fact that they're openly referred to as "sheep" in need of a "shepherd"?

No - because we are humble enough to accept that we're not perfect - unlike the secularists who think they know everything.

Okay, I'll bite.
Scientist: "I don't know the answer to this question, so I'll do some research and use use empirical evidence to draw conclusions, then subject it to peer review and see how well it stands up to scrutiny."

Theist: "The answer to this question is simple: God did it. That's the answer to everything that man cannot answer. You name it, I can explain it using this old text that was written by middle-eastern goat herders who thought the earth was flat. And you'd better effing believe me, coz if you don't you'll be tortured for all eternity after your death like all the other people who don't believe me."

Can you please tell me the names of the 2 individuals who said/wrote that? any links etc
Or is it you just putting your own views ( prejudiced and blinkered etc - like all of us)  and dressing them up as the thoughts of two other people?

[it's time we took control back]

It's time for something different. Take back our oil and start again. Never, ever vote for FF, FG or Labour - they have all repeatedly failed the people. The people have suffered enough - it's time we took control back.

Damn right. It's high time we tried something else. Take a brave step and walk away from the civil war parties, just this once and see what happens. Start thinking nationally and forget the parish pump for once.

Well lads what practical realistic steps have ye in mind?
Remember in a democracy you can only vote for the candidates that stand for election in YOUR constituency.
Or are ye advocating another Egypt/Libya/Syria or what.
Or are ye just letting off frustrated steam ?

[what he thinks happened]

Judging by the hand signals Duffy was making my guess is he thought that Gooch had punched the ball out of Loughery's hand??

He thought !!!!
That's some way to Ref a game.

He acts based on what he thinks happened, how else would you propose he refs the game??

Ref it as he SEES it perhaps ?? If he didn't SEE Cooper use an illegal method of dispossessing the Cork lad how can he give a free??
The "what he thinks happens" is straight from the Sludden school of reffing.

The first thing you need to do is keep idiots like Syferus away from these young lads.

I'm keeping him away from me anyway.
I blocked him so I don't have to read his nonsense any more

[Time may be running out for some of 2006 minors to kick on at senior level however in Cathal Shine,Niall Daly,Neill Collins,Paddy Brogan,Enda Smith,Donie Smith,Conor Daly,Colm Compton,Scott Oates,Donal Keane,Ciaran Cafferkey we have plenty of underage talent only finding their feet at senior level & with many more waiting for their chance we should have competitive senior panel in the years ahead.]

Donie Shine has been unlucky with injuries if he gets a full NFL/FBD under his belt he'll be in better shape for next years championship. As for Senan well after long club year he wanted a break away and probably should have taken it.

The first thing you need to do is keep idiots like Syferus away from these young lads. The worst thing for a young player is to be told how great he is when he has some success at underage and then have fellas constantly making excuses for them when they dont do the business at Senior. Syferus does this all the time. I hope its not indicative of the type of people these players have around them. If so, they will never kick on.

+1.
I read in some paper a few years ago an explanation why Laois didn't win more from all those good underage teams they had back whenever.
When 19 year olds walk into a pub and see a portrait of themselves with a Minor Cup at the end of the bar and everyone starts buying them drinks......

Our 2006 minors will be aged 25 and 26 next year. One minor team will never give you more than 4 or 5 at best good Seniors.
Many have played on the Senior team and by now Carty, Keenan, O'Gara, Higgins, Devaney and Donie Shine were on the Championship squad Saturday. Domican may be back next year.
Carty's not a full back, Keenan is one of the best run around everywhere players around, the others are very inconsistent and will be overtaken by the younger lads if they don't perform more regularly.

Since 06 we've been ALL Irl minor Qtr Finalists 6 times incl this year but we've only won once ( extra time at that !!).
We've won 2 Connacht U21s and have lost to the eventual AI Champions each of the last 4 years.
There's a lot of potential there but  it will take hard work, bruising of some egos, ruthless culling of lads not shaping up and large doses of reality medicine to bring it to fruition as good  Seniors.
We Ros supporters need to become like "those roughest kind of fcukin animals" and become hard to please with anything less than scoreboard victories not moral ones like last Saturday.

The Kerry attitude was summed up for me back in 2000 when we bet them in a Junior AI Final.
A mate met this Kerryman he works with in Sligo the week after and said to him how great a day last Saturday was.
The Kerryman said it "was for ye but a bad day for us". My mate said sure ye're hardly bothered about an oul Junior Final with all ye've won and will win.
The reply was " Any day Kerry lose an All Ireland Final is a bad day"

The time for excuses and Syferianism is over .
WIN OR BUST FROM HERE ON

We really have to make getting to D2 of the League a priority for 2014 as we'll never develop long term being stuck at the present level.
At least Evans knows his players now and  unlike last year ( appointed in November) has time to put some kind of an off season schedule together.
I just wonder will our poor finances restrict our development as I hear some scary tales from time to time of how strapped the Co Board is.
It will be very hard to raise money from Ros town businesses now that the Hyde won't get any major games for some time.
