Replying To Spoddgy: "He dropped a clanger but they didn't score a goal on him" Who then did the score the goal on?, or who minds the goals browncows (Meath) - Posts: 2342 - 20/11/2016 13:57:27 1935560 Link
Replying To Llaw_Gyffes: "Yeah the six or seven points your lad got from play was instrumental in your narrow win. I hope you had a good chuckle. How come so many of the supposedly funny moments involve our Lee who is obviously having the last laugh. Time to let go lads." Lee is having the last laugh? No Connaught or All Ireland medal? Right you are... GaaGaa78 (UK) - Posts: 285 - 20/11/2016 15:27:35 1935569 Link
Replying To browncows: "Who then did the score the goal on?, or who minds the goals" David Clarke was in goals for the penalty - Hennelly had just received a black card for taking the man down. Gaillimh_Abu (Galway) - Posts: 996 - 20/11/2016 18:25:09 1935602 Link

people's overreaction to Bubbles O'Dwyer CURSING!! on RTE seconds after winning an All Ireland. Ron Burgundy put up with less in Anchorman. SaffronDon (Antrim) - Posts: 2386 - 20/11/2016 18:47:33 1935608 Link
Replying To GaaGaa78: "Lee is having the last laugh? No Connaught or All Ireland medal? Right you are..." Did you not hear that he was voted player of the year by his peers. Would seem to suggest that whatever he was doing all year it wasn't that funny. Now it would be nice if he had an All Ireland as well but there is still time. As for Connacht medals, he can't keep track of them at this stage. Llaw_Gyffes (Mayo) - Posts: 1113 - 20/11/2016 19:43:20 1935619 Link

Still find it hard to believe he's having the last laugh! Maybe if he had a celtic cross in his back pocket he would be. I think Kilkenny and Fenton are the ones having the last laugh.

Replying To GaaGaa78: "Yeah I did hear. Thanks. Still find it hard to believe he's having the last laugh! Maybe if he had a celtic cross in his back pocket he would be. I think Kilkenny and Fenton are the ones having the last laugh." Yes I know Dublin won the All Ireland and that Fenton and Kilkenny have all kinds of medals in their back pockets. I don't think I have disputed that, and my sincere apologies if I have as it would have been quite remiss of me. I also agree that both Fenton and Kilkenny are well entitled to permit themselves at least a smile or two in their spare time. The point I was trying to make, badly obviously, was that it was somewhat pointless criticising Lees performances during the year as he was ultimately voted the best player by the very people who should know. As you are I am sure aware, being eligible for the award of player of the year is not dependent on winning that years All Ireland, as Bernard and Peter already proved. So all things being equal I would have thought that, even though he would willingly swap the award for an All Ireland medal, he still is entitled to a short laugh, or if not maybe a rueful smile, in the general direction of his detractors.

The thread on here where there was complaints about Mayo people getting tickets for Hill 16 for the All Ireland final. The reasons were hilarious: 1. Theyre not on the Hill for all the other game whereas the Dubs are (well obviously!) 2. There are a lot more Dubs people wanting tickets and thats it because Dublin has a bigger population so they should have what they want. 3. The Castlebar stadium is all seater so its obvious then that Mayo people dont have any interest in standing!!!! The funniest thing about the thread was that these were actually serious points! tearintom (Wexford) - Posts: 1349 - 21/11/2016 07:39:00 1935664 Link
Crikey. Not much "fun" in this "funniest moments of the year" thread. I'd say my funniest moments were down in Nowlan Park where the stadium announcer got every single Dublin substitution wrong in his announcements (and I daresay a few Laois ones too). Either Dublin have two Con O'Callaghans or he came on, was taken off and was brought back on again. Kurt_Angle (Dublin) - Posts: 567 - 21/11/2016 11:24:02 1935714 Link

I had to really think about it but 2 things struck me as funny this year: Gary "Psycho" Walsh from Laois going to twitter after being taken off versus Dublin and giving out about management because he wasn't being picked because he "let a couple of fcuks out of him". About a week later he had to publicly apologise to management for using abusive and threatening language towards them. Also during Mccarron's time training with Athy he stated in his book that they needed a harder edge to their game. Anyone familar with Athy's players know that the last thing they need is to show even more aggression. realman2 (Kildare) - Posts: 464 - 07/12/2016 12:54:37 1938853 Link

Replying To tiobraid: "Keegan at full back trying to mark Mikey Quinlivan" Did he not keep him scoreless from play?? Quinlivan got a sympathy all star. Didn't do it on Munster final day and just took free's v Mayo thehoops (Kildare) - Posts: 69 - 07/12/2016 16:07:20 1938893 Link
