Scousers and "You can't buy History" crap

[T Fearon]

Someone should enlighten them that with a history that includes Heysel 1985 and Hillsborough 1989, there are not too many prospective buyers about.

Meanwhile it looks like we will have to suffer the Mancs giving the Scousers an additional beating this year (on top of the customary annual league double and the occasional FA Cup and League Cup as well) in the Champions League Final, though I am still praying that the trophy ends up in the home of the best team left in the competition - Milan

Now in fairness we never won the Peace Cup so fair play to Spurs on that one

[tayto]

So you picked a very successful team off the telly. Well done. 99% of Irish premiership fans support the 3 or 4 most successful sides and then gloat about their trophy haul. 

[An Fear Rua]

you cant pull spurs for the Peace Cup and then list Screen Sport Super Cup as an "honour", a few years back you couldnt put your tea down for a few mins or Houllier would have the lads round playing you for it..

[Uladh]

or the premiership....

I hate f**kers like you who begrudge someone supporting another sport outside Gaa,So what if someone supports Liverpool or Man U etc what harm if they boast about their trophy haul i wish people like you would cop and and get rid of the chip on your shoulders,Its a short life we lead and if this supporting something other than GAA brings joy to it then what f**king odds does it make

Rant over

totally agree.

Feck off, if it hadn't have been for Geds crap buys we would have won the thing more than once. The Screen Sport Super Cup was part of his Five year plan and when he didn't win it, he paid fir it with his job.

[his holiness nb]

I dont recall tayto saying you shouldnt support anything outside of the GAA  

His point was nothing to do with the GAA

[WeAreBlueWeAreWhite]

I was reading between the lines.I believe his comment "so you picked a successfull team off the telly,Well done" is a dig at people who follow a team from another country unlike supporting your home town GAA club or your county.Im sure he'll deny this but that's what i took from his post

[his holiness nb]

But you can support your local soccer club too ! ? 

Why you felt the need to mention the GAA there confuses me. Paranoia perhaps

Its not for me to say what Tayto was implying by his post but i do agree with one thing Weareblue says and thats about certain people having a chip on their shoulders about someone following a team that they have no connection too other than following them for a number of years or as Tayto says picking them off the telly
I think it's wrong that these people feel this way,so what if they follow a team from Liverpool or London or anywhere else?
Im a massive Gaa fan and it will always come first to me and nothing compares to winning an All Ireland and i know more about my county winning All Irelands than most  posters here,But im also a lifelong Liverpool fan and the joy i felt last night was almost as good as seeing Cork win yet another All Ireland,So am i meant to feel gulity or did i somehow betray my country because i support Liverpool FC like f**k i did, move on lads it's only sport at the end of the day


And thats my rant over

So WeAre...do you follow a team or support ?

It's an interesting thing following. The traditional way to follow is to buying a jersey and watching generally with their back to the tv the game in a pub. If the game isnt on TV you get the score of the news and look slightly disappointed if they lose

Where  as i support Dublin and Leinster and go to 95% of home games 95% of dublin away games and as many leinster away as i can afford .To support a team you need to be able to go their games
