Read back on the thread instead of quoting out of context. On this Board and OWC you have been quite clear on your views of the GAA.

Each one of the quotations was taken from this thread... ::)

"If you come in here again, you'd better bring guns"
"We don't need guns"
"Yes you fuckin' do"

Well then you must have missed the bit where Sammy and I were discussing anti-GAA comments in general not anti-GAA comments in relation to the stadium.

I'm not Sammy. You specifically accused me of being anti-GAA. But if you read my posts, whilst there are many aspects of the GAA of which I am highly critical, there are many other where I am very complimentary - especially on this thread.

However, because I dare to express the former, you disregard entirely the latter and resort instead to "playing the man, not the ball".

Pathetic.

Then if you are not prepared to read through and take the time to understand what we are discussing before interrupting, stay the fcuk out of other peoples discussions and spare us more of your half-wit ramblings.

Earlier today you posted the following:
"Ah come on, one glance at OWC or Egs comments here, that other clown or the soccer people that phone into Radio Ulster, tell the grassroots GAA man all then need to know about their attitude to our Association"

Does this mean that not only do you reserve to yourself the right to "play the man", but also deny him the right to defend himself?

Anyhow, since when was this Board a private message service for you and other selected posters? That arrogance is similar to that which you displayed on another thread, when you objected to the right of people like me even to post on this section of the Board... :o

Who's the MOPE now?

You slagged me off in a post. When I defended myself, you denied you had. When I quoted your own words back to you, you accuse me of being a MOPE.

Mopery is playing the victim or taking offence where none exists.

The whole project's dying a slow and increasingly farcical death now, so this argument is becoming academic.

As for the retained buildings, there's word now that some of them could find a new home in the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, with the Maze land free to be developed for other purposes.

Joy.

Just when you thought it had gone away ye know:


Plans are being drawn up for a rail link to Belfast International Airport.

An English company, the Kilbride Group, is behind the scheme to reinstate the Knockmore railway line.

Running between Lisburn and Antrim it was closed in 2003. Now there are plans to reinstate the line, and to extend it to Aldergrove.

The airport is about to experience a major surge in passenger numbers with the arrival of Aer Lingus.

Kilbride has been involved in the reinstatement of disused rail lines in England and Scotland, and its directors have carried out an in-depth investigation of the potential for developing the Knockmore line.

They have already held preliminary discussions with an all-party group of assembly members and MPs, and are due to present a more detailed plan at Stormont next month.

It is understood that the project could also provide a train service to the proposed Maze stadium.

Yes, they're sensitive to questions!"

Looks like it is definitely going to happen.  Seen on BBC yesterday that the following crowds per annum are being promised by the 3 main sports organisations

GAA - 150,000
Soccer - 80,000
Rugby - 40,000

What's that? The BBC confirming that GAA attracts twice as many as soccer and four times as many as Rugby.  Surely not ;)

Main Street

Isn“t that 150,000 from 4 games only?

Soccer - 80,000 over 13 games.
6 games not that it matters as the figures are just plucked out of the air.

Do you think it will be possible to buy a season ticket that will allow access to all games in all three sports?  

I would like one of them.  (tickets that is, not sports)
the breathing of the vanished lies in acres round my feet

I'd imagine they'll do some sort of 'guaranteed seat' ticket, which will cover all events including concerts etc. As long as you don't mind travelling to Belfast ;)
