Big Tom wouldnt go to GAA matches

[Wildweasel74]

So Tom Elliot ain't impressed with Fermanagh overly defensive lay out to the point he not go to GAA matches. Tom i wouldn't what to watch Fermanagh either lol.

[armaghniac]

Tom is so bigoted that he wouldn't even go to watch an exciting positive team like Armagh.

Did Tom not go to Michaela Harte's funeral, and he definitely went to Ronan Kerr's where he shook hands with Mickey Harte.

Maybe his decision not to go to GAA games is simply because he's not interested.How many of you go to Irish league games?

[Wildweasel74]

Naa Tony he def seen some of Fermanagh defensive performances from the league. No in all honestly hes just playing to the Orange order element of his voters, class act all round , NOT!

Fermanagh GAA should invite the cnut to the Ulster championship game. It is important for the GAA to expect all public representatives to support all Fermanagh activities.

Will the Mainliners go to GAA matches? not the same without Big Tom.

One of the Monaghan players might be a mainliner, if the other thread is to be believed.

Absolutely. Make him squirm.

Peter Darragh Quinn won't go to GAA matches south of the border, yet it's poor Tom who gets singled out.

Did the previous m for fermanagh south Tyrone go to many games?

Not so long ago,I saw Tom Elliott in Portadown,waiting to cross the road with his blue and white scarf on,to go into Shamrock Pk to see his beloved Ballinamallard play.

Similarly Michelle is a big supporter of Tyrone,but I doubt if she ever turned up at a Ballinamallard game.

Mike Nesbitt was at last year's Down County Senior Final,and at the 2010 All Ireland Final.

I am surmising that the choices these three people make about attending sporting events is more to do with personal interests rather than prejudice and bigotry.

Big Toms a legend!!  He has a mural and the wall and his own bench named after him outside the Oram football club!!

And a big house overlooking Castleblaney that would put Slab Murphy to shame.

No doubt people attending multiple games is a reflection of their interests, but a representative should certainly support local sports of all sorts to some extent and not say "never". If Newry Olympic won something or had a big game I'd expect Micky Brady to perhaps attend even if that is not his usual sporting interest.

At the end of the day,whether he attends a GAA game or not is immaterial.His job is to represent the electorate impartially which I think he will do.

Peter Robinson's decision to attend the Mc Kenna Cup Final a few years ago,didn't really improve his standing among nationalists,and neither did Gregory Campbell's a few years before that.
