Itchy, what do you call people who fire big rockets and bombs into multi story buildings occupied by hundreds of civilians - at least 70% of them women and children?
Do you consider them to be fair game ?
RTE news gave the bus attack with 20 wounded first mention and added as an afterthought that 11 ppeople were killed in Gaza.
So 20 wounded Israelis are more newsworthy than 11 dead Palestinians.
Same oul hierarchy of victims sh1te from the Western media.

Well Rossfan, I call people who fire missiles into buildings of civilians cowardly murderers. Just because I think Hamas joy at blowing up a bus is sick doesn't automatically mean I'm a supporter of Israel. Just means there are plenty of murdering cowards on both sides. It is however interesting to read the relatively lukewarm criticism of Hamas by seafood when he copies and pastes endless articles when Israel is the aggressor. For what its worth I do believe Israel is the biggest aggressor but its not the only one.

Seafood- I assume you've no problem calling the people who put a bomb on a public bus in tel Aviv murderers and cowards, targeting civilians in breech of the Geneva convention. Were probably women and children on that bus. Hamas then praised the attack, what do you think about that seafood.

[if the amalgamations go ahead.]

Cornafean did draw their great teams from neighbouring clubs as there was a rule at the time stipulating you had to play senior club championship to play for Cavan.

The Reds might have a few lads playing Senior Championship next year, if the amalgamations go ahead. Think it will be the only way they will ever win a Senior Championship in the future.

I honestly think that will ruin football in the county if that goes ahead

What is the story there, is it related to the restructuring of the leagues?
I was looking through the Cavan board and could see no discussion on it.

I think Tom Reilly the County Chairman has a vision of turning Cavan into Kerry in the Future by replacting their County Championship. It was mentioned back around March/April this year and is going ahead as far as I know.
It will lead to a congested fixture list. The League's started this year back in Feburay, the Division Final is only being played next Sunday.

Divison 1 Senior League will have 10 teams next year. 7 teams were relagated. Senior Championship  will cosist of those teams and a a few amalgamations. 20 teams will play in the intermediate. Some of those will be part of the senior under the amalgamations. Going to be a bit crazy...

Cavan club football has gone from bad to dire. Something has to be done to try and address this. I think Tom is trying to do something to raise the standards and while there will be problems I think it is worth a go.

Alan is probably more worried about how to defend his child killing friends in Israel than he is about such trivial items in Ireland

Kick the ball harder?

Cornafean back in the 30s and 40's supplied a list of great players and legends to All- Ireland winning Cavan teams while at the same time dominating club football. Cornafean lead the way with 20 Senior titles. The last one in 1956. Sadly the Reds have been stuck at Junior level for too long now.
Cavan Gaels since formation have been the most successful club team in Cavan, dominating over the past 14 years especially. They hold 12 Senior titles. They have supplied some outstanding footballers to Cavan teams down through the years also.
Cavan Slashers before the Gaels, were the dominant club team in Cavan in the early part of the century winning 10 Senior titles.
Mullahoran ,as is the character of the club, have nearly always been there or there abouts and have also supplied Cavan teams with legends on All-Ireland winning teams. 90% of successful Cavan teams down through the years would have had at least one Mullahoran man on them. They sit in joint second with Cavan Gaels with 12 Senior titles. 
Crosserlough produced arguably the greatest club team Cavan has ever seen with the famous Seven in-a Row team from 1966 to 1972. They hold 9 Senior ttiles.
Kingscourt, with 10 titles and Gowna with 7, during the 80's, 90's and 00's supplied some of the finest and toughest players Cavan has produced in a long time while also dominating club football for certain periods.

Cornafean did draw their great teams from neighbouring clubs as there was a rule at the time stipulating you had to play senior club championship to play for Cavan.

If you go to ulster colleges thread on the gaa discussion section there are some videos. Some great scores. Well done St Pats.

Feighan and a gang of clowns were going round Boyle today wearing the offending flowers in memory of the "Connaught Rangers" Regiment.
Could they not simply remember the facts without having to give money to the "Royal British Legion".
Anyway the official State remembrance for  ALL Irish people who died in foreign wars/armies is held in July so again why the need to propogate a British ceremony in the 26 Cos?.

Typical FG w**ker, country goin down the tube and he is going around looking for attention with his gang of inbreds in Boyle.

You have the option of a bigger poppie instead of multiples. Seen a few whoppers in Armagh today.

How about wearing 8 giant ones. Maybe a sombrero poppy hat too. Just to magnify the respect.

How many poppies could you wear before people would realize you were taking the piss. Maybe 8?

McClean refuses to wear poppy on eve of Remembrance Sunday as Sunderland suffer defeat

fair play to him for making a stand

+ 1.
Time for Irish people everywhere to follow his great example and stop toadying.

Read that article and you can see what Jon Snow calls poppy fascism.

Anyone take a stab at naming the clubs that the St pats lads play with?

Jesus christ its a simple yes. It gives kids the same rights as any other citizen. Its so straight forward that every party is in favour even the ones that normally go against everything. The only ones that can be dug up to argue against are right wing religious fruit cakes like Dana. Stop looking for a hidden agenda that's not there.

Doohamlet beat lacken by 4. Lacken had 3 players sent off, doohamlet had 1 off.

An out and out tr**p but its fair to say most teams would like a tr**p like him on their team
