Syferus women have sex men have sex! There was no victims here! All went in with eyes wide open move on!

More than the eyes were wide open

I'm not talking about cases that make the media. I'm talking about low level claims for a few grand. My wife was involved in an accident a few years and and she got rang by a company in Lurg a  about making a claim which she said she had no interest in as she wasn't injured. He rang every day for the next 3 days trying to change her mind, until eventually I went on the phone and told him to sling his hook. You can't tell me these low level, relatively low value personal injury claims aren't endemic.

Me back is hurted boss. I'll never work again

If you play soccer under the IFA and don't like their decisions or attitudes then you either leave like Derry City or you accept the situation or you work from within to change things. It is much easier to stand outside and play the victim or shout and wave flags to no effect.

GAA plays the Irish national anthem on virtually every occasion for county games and at all finals and flies the tricolour at all grounds, does this also make it guilty of creating a cold house for non-nationalists?

Nobody wins a cultural war, it is a never ending conflict that passes down the generations and all it creates is victimhood on all sides.

Boo hoo hoo but someone willbe offended

[The most interesting name that I can see is Jurgen Klopp, very highly rated in Germany and have worked in Germany will have no problems fitting into a cost-effective management process that UEFA's new rules will require.]

The ownership problems at Liverpool are obviously the root cause of their current travails but I still can't help but think that the sale of Alonso in 2009 was the one transfer that should never have happened and Benetiz's biggest mistake. Never got the Mascherano hype yet always thought Alonso was under-valued at Liverpool.

Anyway Liverpool are 2nd only to Man United when it come's to prestige in England and would be a marquee name throughout the world very few managers would not consider the role. However anyone calling for Martin O'Neill, are you mad, have you not seen the legacies at Villa and Celtic that he left behind, he has a complete lack of understanding of squad rotation and management, there is no British manager bar maybe David Moyes would be capable of taking Liverpool forward. Liverpool do not need a short term fix but a manager with a vision and a minimum 5 year strategy.

However I think Liverpool supporters need to sit back and realise that they will need to be patient and that a new manager will not suddenly wave a magic wand, handle expectation and set small targets because at it stands both Manchester clubs and the top 3 London clubs have better squads.

Football like all things in life is cyclical so Liverpool will be back just no one can guarantee when....

As a child of the 80s, I enjoy Liverpool's lack of success however as a club I can but only admire, even in Corporate football they still retain that emotional connection that makes them more than a football club. If they the UCL fair play I certainly wouldn't begrudge them.

Moyes. Jesus Christ

Yea wtf was I thinking!!!

Never mind what you were thinking!  W.T.F.  was Fergie thinking?

I think I agree with that. I don't think it should be changed simply because Cliftonville are involved. As I say though it's not an anthem for them though. It's the anthem of the association whose competition they have entered. I see little difference between this and the playing of the National Anthem at GAA games. Should it not be played if one team requests it not played?

I agree with you David. However I think what Cliftonville should do is to respect the anthem for its entirety. Then when its finished, belt out Amhran na bhFiann or The Celtic Symphony. The IFA have just made a serious misjudgement but they'd nothing else to do, either offend the catholic minority in attendance or offend the larger minority of Prods in attendance? It was a no-brainer for them

Oh God forbid that anyone would-be offended!
Fûcking welcome to each other

You're busting your hole to be offended on this very topic, to be honest.

Not at all. We just laugh at your kindergarten antics

So on one hand we are incapable of showing each other respect like some of your previous posts? Then when we try, it's not worthwhile?

I'll stand here on this tile and say what I am Avondhu, I'm a proud Tyrone Republican who can't understand why Catholics play or go to Windsor Park in the first place (personal opinion). I vote SF, because they were inextricably linked to a group that gained the Catholic population in the north a significant increase in equality, and I continue voting SF because they represent what I believe is our best chance of a United Ireland......now Avondhu let me read some of what you stand for? Instead of constant barbs, anti-North hysteria and general gombeeness that you spout.

Have you some sliced pans you could be putting onyour head?

Certainly Tory cuts are hitting hard but increased demand caused by immigration is a contributory factor

EU immigrants provide more than enough taxes to provide these facilities, the Tories chose not to while blaming the immigrants.

Some of the biggest pro Brexit votes came in staunch Labour constituencies so not only the Tories are to blame

[ignorance]

In other election news, across the water Labour fails to make significant gains in the English Council elections as the Tory vote holds up.

Despite some wishful thinking the Brexit support is holding and no rush into Corbyns arms by the British public

Despite some wishful extrapolation regarding Brexit, the British public and Jeremy Corbyn following the recent round of council elections in England, its a simple fact that Jeremy Corbyn was on a sum total of 0 ballot papers during the same council elections... and that the elections had nothing to do with Brexit...

Absolute rubbish. Immigration was a big factor in Brexit. It is the pressure on local services such as schools and hospitals caused by massive immigration that led the British working class to vote for Brexit. Schools and hospital services are controlled by local authorities so local elections have a big connection to the Brexit issue.

The Shinners wishful thinking want to break the May Foster agreement and bring their pal Corbyn in to No. 10

Immigration and ignorance were indeed big factors in Brexit, but the biggest issue with local services such as hospitals and schools is not immigrants who actually work in these places but the austerity policies of the last few Tory Governments.

Certainly Tory cuts are hitting hard but increased demand caused by immigration is a contributory factor

One side gets offended because once in the year a Loyalist band wants to march up "their" road which takes five minutes. The other side object to G.S.T.Q. being played at a sports final.
No compromise, no willingness to compromise.

Stupid fcukin statement, Ahh I can't be bothered...

The truth hurts

And so the IFA spurn yet another chance of football for all by insisting on GSTQ before Cliftonville vs Coleraine. To add insult to injury Radio Bladh roll out Wee Seamy to underline the Britishness of the occasion. How can we take them seriously? The IFA that is?

Strange decision, given that the anthem was not played before the 2013 and 2009 finals both of which featured Cliftonville.

Illustrates that the majority within the IFA are n to serious about football for all, except on their terms.

I note that the IFA statement says that they are following "current board policy agreed in August 2013" (i.e. after Cliftonville's last appearance in the Cup Final).  It would be interesting to read what that policy actually is.

That would be an ecumenical matter

I suspect the 12 weeks legislation will indeed be enacted if the Referendum passes.
Most of SF plus lefties of all sorts = 35 votes at least plus the Cabinet and Junior members another 30.
So they only need 15 of the other 93 to back it then.

Wait till the TDs analyse the no votes in their constituency?

When the results were read out the laughter from SF at McCrossan's total was a bit cringe. Respect agenda anyone?

Respect for opponents! You realise this is Tyrone you are on about
