My argument is that supporters should be allowed to bring flags to Croke Park and your argument is that Dublin fans should not be allowed flags and that the rest of the country fans don't care about flags in Croke Park.

Not sure which argument is the weak one to be honest bud."
Again you are trying to put words in my mouth. I didn't say nobody should be allowed to bring flags, my point is it doesn't have to be the huge flag that has now been banned. Plenty of counties go Croke Park, as do plenty of Dubs fans, and don't feel the need to get out a 40 ft flag to make their presence felt. So Dublin fans on Hill 16 aren't being treated any differently."
The point being out isn't about the Dubs it's about all fans being banned from bringing in large flags.

Do you really expect us to believe that Dublin fans are the only ones to ever bring large flags to a GAA match?

This ban isn't about Dublin. It's just that the first set of fans to complain about it happen to be Dubs that has you all hot and bothered and ready to start your flag bonfires on Clonliffe Rd lest any get in."]Dublin's fans aren't just the first ones to complain about the ban, they are the ONLY ones to complain about the flag ban. And since you guys are the ones throwing your toys out of the pram about it, it's hilarious that you tell me I'm the one getting "hot and bothered" about it all. But we'll done for getting through a post without telling me I said something I never said. Anyway I'm off to pack my 39.9ft flag for tomorrow evening;)"]Ah yes the old "throwing your toys out of the pram" line wheeled out when someone dares question anything in this life. Tell me....did Kildare "throw their toys out of the pram" when looking to get Feelys black overturned?"]Actually no, we kept our counsel, went through the processes quietly and one of the cards was overturned. Down did the same. No multiple threads giving out yards about it, no claiming victimisation. Just submit the appeal and let nature take its course. Alien concept I know but there you go!!"]See so one CAN question the GAA without being accused of throwing the toys out of the pram. Luckily there is an appeals process for teams to go about their business quietly as you put it. As supporters we have no such luxury. A county like Kildare are an up and coming team but not quite dibing ar the top table yet and therefore not subject to the online abuse that a team like Dublin or Kerry or Mayo would have hence the thread after thread of posters having their say....biased or unbiased. I've seen your many posts over the past few months and it's quite obvious to me what kind of poster you are when it pertains to Dublin. Ewan would be so proud!"]kildare an up and coming team ? not on todays performance anyway.
