Quote from: Truthsayer on February 08, 2026, 12:06:15 PMIt wasn't a big ask to hold the line and not promote Allianz advertising.
The Rebel County.. eh?

Rebel in they do what they want and not held to outside peer pressure
Rebel in that they promote a firm that is complicit in genocide 👏

Take a day off..
I absolutely won't stop from calling these lickspittles out.

Burns and his cohorts will get a warm reception at Croke Park at Congress.. no doubt.
We'll agree to disagree on Cork players. Very poor from them.

I'm not sure going full Poppy on this is fair on the players. Noble and all the protest may be, and as important and significant as it may seem to some, it is not going to be at the forefront of some other young lads' minds as they head into a big game, or ever.
Forcing people to protest is a bit false.

He's probably the least anonymous person on here. Certainly since Tony Fearon left.

At one level I admire your persistence. But you are an army of one following the company line

I don't think they could be accused of that. They could however, be accused of making a conscious decision not to stand side by side with those vocally opposing those complicit in a genocide.

Exactly. We are a long way off the Cork hurling team who went on strike over how their sandwiches were cut

No-one has been forced to protest but they are being called out for promoting Allianz by doing interviews with the logo as a backdrop.
Has been a pathetic response from the GPA... rather no response to a series of emails from Gaels Against Genocide. GPA should be providing leadership on this.

Croke Park have the GPA snookered. The organation funds the union. The union won't rock the boat on funding. And we round we go.

There needs to be a realisation that some people aren't as invested in Israel/Palestine as some others. These people are turning up, playing their match, giving a quick interview and heading home without Israel or Palestine entering their heads. Trying to drag them into protests and "calling them out" is unfair. It's getting like the poppy.

This is a bit of a cult. Comply or we will pull you on it.

Would it be acceptable if the gaa ended the Allianz sponsorship but still kept them as an insurance provider.
Id say its near impossible to get an insurance policy with any company thats not dodgy in some way. Or linked to similar activity.

Cult... "..a relatively small group of people having beliefs or practices, especially relating to religion, that are regarded by others as strange or sinister or as imposing excessive control over members."
Colm McAlarney, Pascal Canavan, Brendan Devenny, Colm O'Rourke... get some shock to know they're in a cult.
Is very simple, is nothing to comply with. Many/most don't protest or speak up... but using you're GAA membership to promote a company that is endorsing genocide.. of course they'll get called out.
