SammyG...Shmuel Goldstein??

Daily Express headline:

Graeme Storm Implicated In Murder of Princess Diana

nifan...I know a very good Belfast based accountant who will sort all of this out for you for a small consideration...he's a die hard GAA man, but I reckon all ofthat goes out the window when you're dealing with spondoolicks!!

.

to become a member of the GAA you have to sign-up to support a 32 county republic, fly the tricolour and play AnBf (even if we ignore all the clubs and trophy names

SammyG you forgot about swearing undying loyalty to the Pope and requirement (signed in blood) to take communion every day, vote Sinn Fein, spit at Protestants and call your children after Bobby Sands and own the entire back catalogue of the Artane Boys Band..

Are those in the new version of the Official Guide, I've only got the 2005 version. 

On the agenda for next Congress...proposed by Ballygobackwards Sean Kelly's GAC

You shouldn't be here, EG, you should know that by now.  You don't seem pure, you just don't belong.

Finally the penny has dropped!!

However, if you must know, my motivation is not one of "hatred", rather it is primarily curiousity - or a search for enlightenment, if you prefer.  As I replied earlier when POG asked why I am a regular on this Board, the following might explain:

EG,

What's your involvement with the above campaign, if it's okay to ask?

Evil Genius is Trevor Ringland??

...as far as I'm concerned, the GAA may name its pitches after whoever they like - it's no business of a non-member like me.

You seem to get fairly worked up about something that is, by your own admission, none of your business.

What?!?!? Surely he's been to Louis Leonard Memorial Park, Donagh, Co Fermanagh

Of course, they couldn't name anything in honour of Volunteer Leonard immediately following his demise in 1972, 

The late Mr Leonard's demise involved being shot several times in the head and chest and then dumped in a freezer.  No one was ever charged with his demise

when connolly asked the contributor from rathcoole to name a gaa pitch named after an ira volunteer he couldnt do it.

behind the wire, you have to allow for the fact that people who ring into Talkback (on any subject) are, for the most part, complete wingnuts

Why don't you apply for tickets for a game at Croker from Mc Culla Transport...

Are they free?

Fraid not EG, Prods must pay extra   Now if they stopped wimmin from going to the games there's be plenty of tickets for everyone of every creed...but maybe that's a whole other thread...

[aftermath]

Also the soccer stadium shares the same name as the head of state of a country currently engaged in an illegal war...   While we're at it can we get local councils to re-name all the King William Parks and Queen Elizabeth Roads and Schomberg Gardens and Prince Andrew Ways across the North??  O'Connell Street should be renamed The Middle Way

And this has precisely what to do with Darren Graham and the GAA?
 

Just widening the stadia naming point a little bit...also this thread is about the aftermath of the Darren Graham affair...you should know, you started it

No, you weren't widening the thread, you were hijacking it.

Windsor Park*, and its name, has absolutley sod all to do with the GAA.

* - Windsor Park was so-named in 1905, because of its association with the nearby Windsor Mills. Similarly, a number of other roads and streets in the area have "Windsor" in the name.
The British Royal Family changed its name from Battenburg to Windsor in 1917. I doubt very much that they named themselves after Linfield's football stadium...

I know Windsor Pk and street naming policies have sod all to do with the GAA...we're on the Non-GAA Discussion Board  I never said Windsor Park was named after the Queen, simply that they shared a name hence the   after the comment.  BTW the British Royal Family changed it name to Windsor from Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.  Twas the Mountbattens who were originally Battenberg...who are you?? Big Mervyn after a hard night in the Kneebreakers??

Got tickets for Harry Connick Jr. in the RDS in December.
Anyone ever seen this lad live ?

Is he a Protestant??...Ooops sorry wrong thread
