Down Club Hurling & Football

I can see what the clanns lads are saying, I know what I would think if the same happened our club and I would imagine most clubs in the county would take exception to this!

i agree but nothing has been proven either way and its all pretty much speculation, and i dont think its for anyone on here to publically castigate players and try to smear someones character when really they arent in a position to comment.

unless you are from brick tamlins club who obviously wouldnt mind the name of their club being dragged through the mud in national press for no reason.

again as i said if you have facts either way about the incident or are in some way able to prove that the club name "was dragged through the mud in national press for no reason" then fair play to ye. Im not getting dragged into a debate on the rights and wrongs of off field incidents, im merely saying that i dont agree with people coming in here and making assumptions and character assassinations when really they know f**k all about what actually happened or didnt happen be it the case.

surely it should be the other way round, the allegations should have been proven before the club name WAS dragged through the mud?!

Superstar what happens off the field should stay off the field and you will do well to remember that and be mindful with your future comments or personal attacks on opposing players. Personally i think that if some of Clans players hadnt got so caught up in giving so much "attention" to one Point player then they might have had a better chance of winning. Also i dont think you would be man enough to go toe to toe with said player on the fiield of play either. Its so easy to hide behind an alias on a forum. Twit.

Interesting comments there Brick considering you called Ciaran McKeever a talentless thug not too long ago, some moral highground. i take it you would be man enough to go toe to toe with him?

D4S · August 21, 2008, 04:20:40 PM

Touché! Look any chance that subject could be dropped I'm from neither club but can't even be arsed making a comment on it, as we've since found out it had nothing to do with clann na banna club...so go start a thread in the non gaa related section about it if yous want to bicker!

someone please answer me one question...

As has been said, the accusations should have been proved before the said player and his family contacted the press, to go on to a radio station with such a wide audience and slate an entire club was the wrong thing to do, if the lad had been telling the truth, the police would have analysed the cctv from the nite club and subsequently made arrests, this did not happen, why??? because the accusations were false, for whatever reason the story was told, he should be man enough to admit what actualy happened.

Brick, giving too much attention to one player was not a factor in banns defeat last night, the players on the field were focused on progressing in the championship first and foremost, as I have said the difference was boyles scores
