As dead as his mate Bob McCartney's political career

[Packie's save]

Folks I am looking for some pics in a hurry of Tyrone in 2008. I have (ahem) borrowed the ones from the Tyrone v Kerry thread, but was looking a few more. Anyone got any wee clips, a pic of Packie's save, or Joe McMahon's celebration v The Dubs?

Cheers

class!

Wish I was computer literate enough to post pictures ... there'd be one of three clothes lines in as row

S'pose it's no surprise that it's jackeens arguing the point on here ... they'll be saying soon it's time for a new royal visit to what was the second city of the empire the last time some parasite from buckingham palace was paraded thru the streets there to accept the thanks of loyal dubliners for her hugely generous contribution to the famine fund 35 years earlier ... time to get them wee red, white abd blue flags outta the bottom drawers boys

Redhander, please for the love of god, dont be fooled into thinking Tankie and Gnevins views are that of the average Dubliner. Theres a very noisy minority in the Myers mould alright, but despite their kicking and screaming, they are the minority.

No probs ... i know and appreciate the contribution many brave dubs played in the fight for Irish freedom ... a point a very good friend of mine from Ballymun never tires of reminding me of!

The revisionism happened in the years after the war when these men where brush under the carpet and the nation attempted to forget them

In what way were they brushed under the carpet? In many ways they and their families were better looked after than those who stayed behind, so why should the Irish state remember those who chose to fight in foreign armies?

I have no problems with Irishmen fighting in foreign armies - the names of three Irish generals who fought for Napoleon against the English are inscibed on the Arc De Triomphe - what I do have a problem with is Irishmen fighting in the army of the country that enslaved their people ...

sure u boys in Britain would know more about Royal Visits than us 

But on a serious note this has nothing to do with British rule, these men fought for Ireland as proud Irish men and that should not be forgotten.

Us abandoned Irish in the occupied six wouldn't have a problem remembering them if all the associated baggage wasn't shovelled down our throats by bigots up here.

BTW tankie, any of your famous predictions about what the Dubs are going to do to us at Croker at the end of January?

I'd love to meet the london boys in an ulster final ... there'd be no bother getting tickets considering their support

Always thought Behr was a bit over rated

Looks like a post op transexual

Yeah, there's some real sub-Z-listers headed for the jungle ... some the snakes they'll be eating are more famous

Nine out of 10 German soldiers killed during WWII died on the Eastern front ... Winston Churchill no more won the war than that dog who does the insurance ads ... in fact, if Hitler had not stopped the panzers for two days on the outskirts of Dunkirk what was already a humiliation for the british (which their typical revisionism turned into a glorious episode) would have ended in complete and utter defeat in 1940 ... the Soviet Union killed the most enemy troops and the Soviet Union suffered the highest number of casualties

I hear the mayor of Muff is already penning a letter to Playboy publications

I'd happily agree to a donation being debited from my salary on this Friday every year for the rest of my working life if the BBC happily agreed to stop foisting such excerable crap on TV

why dont you worry about keeping Mulligan away from the pies and we'll worry about D'O'Se

The greatest goal ever seen at Croker was fuelled by Dennys!

How well does it absorb salted tears?

Why anyone would want to watch that game is beyond me... what Tyrone did that day was a blight on the GAA and was the beginning of 'puke football' imo. An absolute joke. One lad came to play football and the rest to fcuk about. Thank God they were denied the most undeserved All Ireland of all time and I wasn't too unhappy to see Meath teach them a lesson the year after!

brilliant... jaysus them acorns must taste bitter  ... s'pose you were one of the inbreds rubbing it in at halftime thinking the game was already won 

I have no time for the orange order but there's absolutely no excuse for attacking their halls, it's pathetic

Coming in the wake of two orange halls being attacked last weekend, it's probably a revenge attack - bigotry is still alive and well in irish society.

Unfortunately, you're probably right orangeman
