My IPTV provider disappeared from Facebook & his group on Telegram gone also. Know he had issue previously with warning on Facebook so may have popped up elsewhere.

Based in 26 myself.

Edit: Was working fine yesterday and this morning.

He was in the FAI already but not at the head of it. Either way it has long appeared to me that those that run the FAI are either incompetent or corrupted. Its not a serious organization and Ireland isn't a serious footballing country despite the high levels of interest there is in the game as a form of entertainment and our national team will never amount to anything for the foreseeable future. Happy to be proven wrong of course but I doubt it.
Soccer has twice the playing numbers of Gaelic games. I'd hate to see playing numbers if they ever did get serious...
The  fraud speaketh, more nonsense. Only a fraud on the GAA discussion would come up with that bull. Those high soccer participation numbers come from a dubious sports whatever study, and  are inflated by people who play  7 a side, occasional once a week kickabouts in the park with jerseys for goalposts, lunchtime kickabouts.

When participation is defined by playing and being a  member of a club, the soccer figures dwindle and lag far behind the GAA. Baile your Hole, only a dimwit like yourself would think that selecting a gaelic name would fool people into thinking you're someone other than the worm you are.
Others might remember the fraud Myles na gCopaleen, at least he eventually gave up the pretense, well mostly stopped, but he could never shake off the lingering stain of being a duplicitous fraud.

Playing numbers are playing numbers. And I dont think you are right in your counter claim of shifting the goalposts. Its exceedingly foolish to claim Gaelic games has more participants than soccer. This came up in the context of an equally foolish claim that nobody takes soccer seriously in Ireland

The rest of your post is just a shyte attempt at bullying.
You call that bullying but are happy to call another poster special needs and Rainman. You are a sham of the highest order.

I'm being accused of all sorts by a small group of posters. Im not a GAA man, Rainmam seriously thinks I'm Paul Kimmage ffs. Calling out stupid posts is one thing. Deciding in a group you don't like a poster and dismissing everything they say as part of a plot is another.
Can you explain why you are referring to another poster as Rainman?
Because he is a bully, moron and all round bellend
You really are an insufferable bollocks to be using that as a form of abuse. I reported you earlier this week for this and the mods have decided to let it fly. I'm done here with you and your blind ignorance and that's even before talking of the scutter you post.

I'm sure Brigín/Kimmage will be along shortly to suggest that Duffy/Browne  were much worse.......
You do understand that claiming I'm Paul Kimmage makes you look special needs?


Is there any reason why you continually make reference to special needs?
Catch a grip of yourself ffs.

How else do you respond to a post with that level of stupidity? He shows all the hallmarks of being on the spectrum.

Or put another way, if Rainmam is happy to dish it out...
You regularly provide entertainment here claiming to be something you clearly are not and attempt to take a position of superiority but your calling other posters as "special needs" is just not on. The fact you persevere does not reflect well on you.

If Damien Duff thought the GAA were dinosaurs and archaic and awful, I wonder what he thinks about the overlords within Irish soccer.

The Irish soccer media will circle the wagons and defend Delaney, didn't Duff, Whelan, Dunphy etc brand the tennis ball protest as a disgrace or words to that effect only a few short weeks ago. All sucking from the same tit.
As opposed to the hyper critical GAA media? The soccer mefia at lesdt bothered finding Delaneys salary and expenses. Our mob have yet to bother rocking that boat

Somehow spinning this as a soccer strength, some neck on you.

"Our mob" a nice touch also.   ;D

MacGyver
The A-Team

Ah those were the days!

The Dukes of Hazard  :)

Used to watch it every week to see Daisy Duke  :) :)

Anyone remember the six million dollar man.  That was a lot of money back then but it wouldn't buy a division 3 goalkeeper now.

The Fall Guy
TJ Hooker
Buck Rogers....Beedly Beedly!


There was a sci-fi program from the late 70's early 80's and it freaked me out....it's bugging me as I can't remember it!!!

Give us a clue was it the "twilight zone"

Blake 7....that was it....Tales of the Unexpected was one that freaked me too!
Thunderbirds reruns freaked me out altogether as did the opening music of Tales of the Unexpected, still sends a chill down the spine.

Anyone advise where to buy u8 gum-shields other than the ridiculously over-priced O'Neill's?
This explains a lot of concern I had about you.

First of all, Rory's entitled to do what he wants. Given the attitude of some "patriots" on this forum and elsewhere, it's no wonder he finds it difficult wrapping himself in the tricolour. He's been no.1in the world in a major (individual) sport , and I'm very proud of the fact that he's from Ireland . I've never met him Personally but know people close to him and I'm aware of his personal attributes and charitable support. Though I don't share his national affinity, I come from a different background with different influences and these are the things that mould us. North Down is not South Armagh. It's an affluent area which was mainly untouched by the troubles, and most people during the troubles Catholic and Protestant enjoyed a great quality of life in that area. I imagine his parents , despite a GAA background and family sectarian loss, made a decision to embrace North Down/Northern ireland , Exemplified by going to Sullivan Upper as opposed to a catholic grammar . As a top sportsman , he was probably a popular student and he was afforded opportunities at school and in the golf club , and the influences of that upbringing moulded him throughout his childhood.
Despite this upbringing some expect him to be wrapping himself in a tricolour and being overtly politically Irish . Knowing many catholic's from that neck of the woods , most tend to keep their head down politically and accept the many positives That  part of NI has to offer. McIlroy likes NI soccer team, Ulster Rugby and Carl Frampton. That's his affinity and much as I would like him to be a James McClean, his influences are different. I respect that , and delight in his success. Anybody that feels any antagonism towards him should explore his charitable impact, his down to earth personality, and delight in the fact that we've a superstar in our midst. PS I presume the comparison with mcgregor is tongue in cheek?

Good post. He will always be a hero in my book.

So if Rory gets on with life and all the trappings of the environment he was raised fair play to him but if us southerners do it we're free staters etc??

Giving Rice the award shows just how out of touch the FAI are. PR disaster and shows just how low the organisation is right now.

Has Irish football been lower in recent memory? Have to call right now it's lowest ebb in my lifetime > 30 years (just about!)

We have established it has nothing to do with the FAI

Football writers voted for it, but it's an award of the association thus, what was the point of even humiliating themselves further, after the Birthday tweet fiasco.

How could the FAI have avoided it?

They could simply have said the football writers voted for Declan on the basis of his performances last year, however as an association we do not feel it is appropriate to give the award to someone who has declared for another country. As such the award will not have a recipient this year.

Exactly this.
Absolutely, covers all angles. Bit of cop on goes a long way.

Bordertown series 1 was decent and no issue with it being subtitled, series 2 is English dubbed and takes away from the enjoyment of it.

Change your settings in Netflix. Turn on original language and subtitles.
Much appreciated Geoff. Watchable again.  :)

Folks anyone on IPTV now will need to get a VPN set up - some recent court judgement now means they are blocking everything. with the vpn its impossible to be tracked and blocked.  Very important to get one - if you dont you wont have iptv
IPTV working fine for me with no VPN.
It's not an issue in 26 yet anyways.
