3 bogeys in a row for Rory, +3 through 7. Maybe next year.
Went with Schauffle, Reed and Kuchar at 22/1, 33/1 and 100/1. Hopefully get some sort of sweat come Sunday.
All I have done is show that Sid is hollow and insincere with his rhetoric.
It's not my fault he lacks emotional maturity and while he should certainly be banned, I should not.
Oh believe me, I'm sincere and I have oceans more emotional maturity than you, I have the ability to change my views for one when I feel I'm being lied to
And you are certainly sincere when you spew out continuous hate speech against gay people that SF bots here stand idly by and tut tut at
SF bots have never had a problem with hate speech, as this thread shows
News flash, SF have been in bed with unionist/policing board since the gfa
I'm talking about the SDLP's role in the past week. If you want to discuss specific incidents.
The Bobby Storey funeral happened 9 months ago. We've had 9 months of coverage on it. It was investigated and no charges were brought forward.
The SDLP engaged in chance opportunism last week on a funeral that happened 9 months. They knew it would stoke up tensions and they jumped on the bandwagon to do so. The end results are what we have had the past week or so. They should be called out on it.
9 months ago, the report only happened last week. Of course you’re going to say what they did was wrong and you’d expect to get off with a charge of breaking Covid rules and use the Storey funeral as an example.
There should be no outside gatherings for any reason, no clear rules on this, but we’d neighbours two doors up were fined £500 for having 3 friends in their garden recently. Seems unfair don’t you think?
Sure when Warrington and 100 other massacres happened SF's response was to have a cry about the Brits

A friend phoned me to say he was working beside Lanark Way (on the Shankill Side) when 2 carloads of adult heavies appeared to tell the business to close immediately, vacate the area. About 1.30pm today. Looks like there is a clear plan to escalate rioting and unrest in a big way tonight and over the next few days.
Dozens of businesses were being "advised" to close by these bullies.
Surely the police know about this now, well in advance of what will unfold tonight. Nothing "sporadic" about what's going on...this is an unadulterated properly orchestrated show of menace from loyalist paramilitaries that is being allowed to unfold in daylight without any resistance from the so called authorities.
Time for nationalist community leaders to demonstrate a dignified response by showing it can actually control their areas. Maintain the moral upper hand and do not fall for the trap of contributing to the mayhem, because that is exactly what their plan is.
Embarrassing stuff from Mallon in Stormont today. Not a hint of awareness of their own little contribution to the events that are happening now.

Calling the Assembly together over the refusal to accept the Bobby Storey verdict. They jumped into the bed with the DUP and unionists to ratchet up tensions because they could score some political points over a funeral that happened 9 months ago.
Hold on, the events at Storeys funeral should have and where looked at, they were wrong on so many levels. The results came back from that report and the DUP were outraged, which is fair enough considering the rule breaking that went on. Storey having that send off while we had limited numbers at my dads sticks in my throat.
The issues of the protocol and sea border are just other issues that have been stoked up to send these halions out onto the streets.
If the SDLP stepped out of line regarding a funeral, SF would have reacted with same comments.
You’re no different to sticking the boot into political parties than Sid.
My take is straight down the lineShinners have engaged in whataboutery for their entire existenceThought Shinners would have welcomed the violence last night
Shure didn't they do that for 30 years!
Lots of Twitter talk of retaliations tonight
Seems like there could be a serious escalation
Hopefully not
Is there a whatabouttery award thread? I nominate this post.
Arlene Foster's tactic last night was straight out of the Sinn Fein playbook
You'd think NI Irish nationalists would applaud NI British Unionist adoption of SF tactics, it's a compliment if anything - Unionists see how SF tactics have dragged public debate down into the gutter, and they want some of that
NI Irish nationalists certainly can't complain about that
The two sides are well matched
I just feel for the very large section of the NI community who don't want to be part of either "side"
The solution is to get rid of both the DUP and SF through the ballot box and elect reasonable people rather than two parties who groom vulnerable working class youth into criminality, who act like vultures on their communities
That's a certainly skewed outlook on what has happened in the past up here but not surprising. I really don't know where to start.
That must have been some bang on the head you received back in the day.
Northerners insulting people from the Republic has become a common sight on this forum of late, so thanks again for the latest installment of that
For a long time I've warned that rabble rousing for a border poll will cause nothing but trouble in NI
This is continuously disputed by most NI Irish nationalists on this forum, who have consistently underestimated the potential for violence and seem to exist in a fantasy world where NI British Loyalists and Unionists will simply suck it up and take it
And obviously DUP and Loyalist rabble rousing will cause nothing but trouble, like, duh
The thing that annoys a lot of NI Irish nationalists is that reasonable people from the Republic with an interest in the situation in NI can generally read it a lot better than most NI Irish nationalists - because we can sit back and observe with a degree of dispassion and actually see what's going on, whereas a lot of youse can't see the wood for the trees - too much emotional investment, siloed lives, existing in echo chambers, it tends to cloud judgement
A doozy.
Is this the same guy? Where did this post come from? Reminds me of a broken marriage, he was in love at the start but when it broke up he became very very bitter indeed and even though he cant have her he gets very angry if anyone else loves her instead

Interesting story for those who don't want to get the vaccine. While it doesn't apply to covid it shows there is a precedent there if some countries want to make covid vaccinations mandatory. Personally I don't think pubs/restaurants etc should require covid passports, but if' you're travelling abroad it should be mandatory due to the different mutations.Yeah there’s probably an argument for vaccine passports to go on holidays, but domestically it is a ridiculous idea.

Vaccine passport for travel will happen, there's no argument for it not to. Pubs, restaurants etc will follow guidelines. Can't see a pub vaccine coming in. That's the rhetoric of the deranged, and very vocal minority ring wing, anti-vaxx etc. Yet they'll shout down the vast majority of folk who trust in the science and just want to do their bit to get things back to normal, calling them zealots, fascists etc. A more transparent playbook you'll not see.
Science they told us repeatedly has failed us. Science then plays a blinder and they're scrapping around the Internet for anything to support their warped logic. 2 of the GP Anne McCloskeys supporters, I seen them queued for their vaccines ffs!
Hard to admit you've been wrong when you've talking out your hole for 13 months.
There is lots of debate about domestic vaccine passports & the rights and wrongs of it.
I can see how some people say it will infringe on their rights and being able to live a normalish life and thats a fair point which will be heavily scrutinised.
Nah, they can fuk off with their rights.
The sensible have a right not to be in danger of infection from mutated variants that developed in unvaccinated idiots.
So people should not have the right to choose whether or not to take something that has been shown to cause blood clotting?
This is why zealots are dangerous.
People can choose to do what they like but to say that everyone else has to be OK with it is wrong!
Don't get vaccinated fair enough but don't expect to be getting on a plane/eating in a restaurant/drinking in a bar if you're likely to infect and kill people!
NI based posters here continually exhibit a superiority complex
Like bald men boasting they've found a comb
"Youse in the Free State have no right to an opinion but you've also no right to not have an opinion which doesn't tally exactly with mine"
