Quote from: From the Bunker on February 09, 2026, 11:31:56 AMIf that cup game was against Rangers on the weekend - You can't sure bet that Boycott would have been a failure.

They would hardly choose a Rangers game for a boycott.

If you're gonna make a statement - make it a proper statement!

Quote from: Captain Scarlet on February 09, 2026, 11:05:32 AMJust like the Dems in the USA you wonder how bad they can be. I mean they don't seem to stand for anything and leave themselves open to ridicule ALL the time.
It doens't help that the middle class media love the Tories and now Reform, but Christ they are so so wwatery in everything they do.


Both have sold themselves to be for the common man and minorities. But like their opponents they are the other cheek of the same asshole.

Quote from: Milltown Row2 on February 08, 2026, 06:38:04 PMCourse it is, call the first and that's that.. he must have known he was going for early shower! Misses three games for that so very silly

Ah, he'll get a rest in between all the Cup games Liverpool are involved in.....

Handy one then, I suppose the goal being disallowed helps with the goal difference, which could be crucial

Every cloud has a silver lining,,,,,

I chose not to look at my phone. I much rather believe what RTE, The BBC, The Irish Independant/Times, The Guardian/Times/Independent and what our Politicians are telling us. These hold the high moral ground and we should not divert away from these reliable entities.

Looking at your phone is for people who are easily led down a garden path.

Outdoor Christmas lights still up in the summer.

Always scabbing lifts for your kids to matches.

Boot or back seat is your wardrobe.

Never lift the seat to Pee.

Quote from: Brendan on January 31, 2026, 08:22:51 AMThe not so good players can also be more dedicated GAA men and go on to perform vital off pitch roles for the club

I've found from experience that the 'Not so good players' who become dedicated GAA men is because their kids are involved. And they are hoping for a better outcome for their kids (than they had).

Quote from: Fogarty on January 30, 2026, 10:50:16 PMA mixed bag so far.
The Brogans have aged badly.

Alan brogan is 44. They are all embracing going grey which usually begins happening in your 30's. They are all slim.
And all were togged out well.

If I was to give out about anything it was having the Brogan clan on again. It's a worn out story at this stage.

Quote from: blanketattack on January 30, 2026, 03:17:41 PMVery sad to see some teams especially B teams playing star players from younger age groups up just to increase the chances of winning the B Championship. Just sad to see the egos of men putting winning a crappy trophy ahead of the wellbeing of their players, players who've trained all year and then see a younger player take their spot, and they only get 5 minutes at the end.

The team I coach, the players that play up in age, are only called up in emergencies and even then it's always as sub. Players on age get played first even when the younger players are 10 times better than them.

I get ya! But there is always a string of things to be taken into consideration.

* The Coaches ego.
* The good players of age ego who want to play with good players.
* The good players parents ego who want their kids to play with good players.
* The Clubs ego who want to look good on FB with a winning team.

At the end of the day, Clubs are interested in developing good to great players. Anything outside of this is an annoyance. I have seen this first hand and it can be hurtful. But it is a lesson in life. Sometimes, lads just are not good at sport or a specific sport does not suit them.
