In an interview the Monaghan man said: "As someone would say, that's how people in Ballymun walk anyway." hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 03/09/2015 14:33:02 1781327 Link 0 |

It was meant as a joke - I'm fairly sure Pat would have funny things to say about people from most towns/counties Cherno_Samba (Louth) - Posts: 632 - 03/09/2015 17:09:28 1781511 Link 0 |
Hear, hear Cherno... That politician is looking for a few votes, he's out canvassing already for a general election I believe. Just wants his name heard. Let him belt away. xxB3B0Stunnahxx (USA) - Posts: 94 - 03/09/2015 17:22:44 1781531 Link 0 |

....don't think Pat mind's the attention this has created...no apology will ever come....unless this would create another media furore and get him more publicity witnof (Dublin) - Posts: 1604 - 03/09/2015 17:52:06 1781561 Link 0 |
It's ironic that he should find himself in hot water for commenting on an incident that didn't actually happen. Not only did he get the allegation against Philly wrong he managed to insult the good people of Ballymun also. Pin this up in the dressing room Jim. If it wasn't bad enough that the ref's are against us, we now have ill informed and ill judged statements coming from the chairman of the referees committee. An apology costs nothing Pat.

I thought the Tyrone supporters were the only ones who did outrage and offence . Seems I was wrong . Greengrass (Louth) - Posts: 6031 - 03/09/2015 19:16:17 1781603 Link 0 |
Spare me! Seriously, some Dubs taking offence at a light hearted, good natured remark? I thought they were a lot tougher and thicker skinned than this. Also a bit of hypocrisy going on. So it's OK to say "Culchie this, Culchie that, Nordie so and so's etc" but can't take a bit of humour when it goes the other way? If you can't take it don't give it out.

He was wrong end of story. He should not have said it and should apologise! Molaise (Fermanagh) - Posts: 96 - 03/09/2015 19:57:06 1781623 Link 0 |
I thought is was a hilarious comment and shows that Pat has a great sense of humour. The problem is the dubs can dish it out but can't take it. bryanadams (Kildare) - Posts: 733 - 03/09/2015 20:01:29 1781628 Link 0 |

Wise up Hill. That is the point that people are making . He didn't mention any of those issues you refer to . Pat McEnaney made a light hearted, off the cuff remark . That remark was very similar in tone to the culchie remarks you and your fellow Dubliners make about country people . Catch yourself on and drop your faux outrage . It is ridiculous .
