Always play the double bluff! There are those that also fall for it that agree with it... And there's an opportunity there to annoy jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20600 - 17/08/2016 16:39:43 1902366 Link 0 |
I'm glad you guys are getting such a laugh out of Tom. Cavan's finest export, eh. . cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5016 - 17/08/2016 17:08:01 1902378 Link 0 |
im perplexed there are over 215 clubs in dublin and if you just put 800 people per club which is rediculously low for some clubs you get 172K people, its probably around 350K (but taking out young kids) . So to say there are a lot of people in croke park that are not real gaa fans is insane. The differenc ein dublin is most people follow a number of sports not just gaa. heresam (Dublin) - Posts: 156 - 17/08/2016 17:52:17 1902394 Link 0 |
helloTomsmith here live again I made several good points in my first post concerning my gut feeling on my visits to Dublins GAA fields, I take onboard what some of say about the friendly Dublin city, Sure it is all non National that are working where this survey was done in the Tourist section.what Dubs would work there. I still stand over my comments that Dublin is very in-hospital place (years ago standing under C-----Clock was traumatic) and that people should while not being frightened should be on ones guard. I feel that Dublin Gaa people can be robust in the support of the County team which has one contributor stated what he saw against Donegal Supporters. I applaud him for his views . I also say let others speak out and dont be intimidated tomsmith (Cavan) - Posts: 3861 - 17/08/2016 18:11:10 1902407 Link 2 |
They forgot to mention that the pollsters said at 4 o'clock in the morning!

So Tom, does Mrs Tom accompany you on your trips to the capital and have you taken out a Brown Thomas storecard for her to amuse herself while you're at the game? MedwayIrish (Wexford) - Posts: 2324 - 17/08/2016 20:12:29 1902453 Link 0 |
Oh you were playing the double bluff were you, answer for everything, lol. The Dublin clique out in force ridiculing every other county, the like hits aren't going so well for some of you, some of those culchies who are as bad as you here will soon pass you out. All counties have fans who behave like animals including Galway & it's wrong but the Dubs, what are they like, in 1974 I saw kids hurt in the Nally stand by Dub fans with the big timber poles that held up their flags they were allowed to bring in that time by driving them through the fence between Hill 16 & the Nally at the Galway kids. The same day the pulled two Galway lads off the flat concrete roof toilet that was on the hill then & beat them senseless, pure scum. In 1983 the ammount of Galway lads bet up outside the Hill alleyway was terrible & the ammount of buses that had windows smashed that evening on the old road at the hill in Lucan was a disgrace. Over 10 buses stoned that night, I was on one & kids sitting in seats where rocks shattered the glass. So yeah Tom was correct & the only man playing the double bluff was Tom, giving it to ye as he sees it but getting a rise out of ye as well.

In a former life, I used to work in a call centre taking calls from all corners of the country. I found Dubs to be the friendliest and most easy going. Even if there was a feck up on their account, they were philosophical about it and generally accepted it as one of those things. I found Cork people to be the most temperamental, they would fly off the handle about any little thing. It could have been the pitch of their accent though, it sometimes sounds argumentative when it might not necessarily mean to be. ballydalane (Kilkenny) - Posts: 1246 - 17/08/2016 23:41:23 1902544 Link 1 |

But shur ye already do that. Remember the U21 game earlier this year between Mayo and Dublin? A Dub gentleman had to be restrained after he went for the ref at the end of the game. MayoDan (Mayo) - Posts: 420 - 18/08/2016 03:56:09 1902562 Link 1 |
Lots of shite Tyrone fans obviously they just wont bother travelling (usually),You'll find more of them at a local game, it's just a fact north Dublin around croke park has many bandwagoners because of its location I'm not saying anything about the average decent Dub fan I'm just saying its very easy for these bag of cans lads to hijack a match because they live a stone throw away. It is the only reason the dub fans get a bad name.

Yeah Im not shocked .I have witnessed lots of this myself .This is the point im trying to make via Dub fans.It is not perosnal , the true fans are the best of banter and ive had many the pint and banter with them, just 5 percent of the north side of town will hijack a match and turn it rough if they get the chance.Im pretty sure there wouldnt be half as much of that stuff even if croke park was around blackrock,it is just a few fools,im not trying to get at dub fans on this because the ones I'm talking about will 100% not be on a forum chatting about GAA before a game

Im not getting personal about Dub fans here.Im just saying north side of Dublin has more scummy lad/girls than most of the country and if they are at or around games you can be sure there will be trouble.I'm not having a go at fans just the scummy element that far outnumbers other counties simply because of location and that is a sad fact.I've been spat at and jeered at almost to the point of assault on the way back from matches from croke park but once im in the city centre or the south side it disappears , no coincidence there .
