Replying To BarneyGrant: "Nationality is not complicated or "fluid." A piece of paper does not make you Irish or Japanese or Swiss." Well said Barney, anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded.

Replying To Viking66: "Ok Barney what does make you Irish in your book? Or any other nationality?" Being born here at a minimum! Unless of Irish descent obviously.

Anti GAA Agenda - 2 Like(s)
Replying To BarneyGrant: "Not talking about fans so much - we all have our clowns - but there is huge and long standing hatred between Dublin FAI and ourselves. No idea if that is case elsewhere.
They deliberately refused to use Hill 16 on tickets when we foolishly let them in. "Northern Terrace"!!
Some may mock me, but you don't sneer at our history and expect us to be overjoyed with your occasional success!" There are about 10% of idiots on either side that feel a massive antipathy from the soccer side to the GAA and vice versa in Dublin.
There are clearly in the minority on either side though.
In fact there is a huge crossover in support for the 4 Dublin LoI sides and the Dubs. The vast majority of attendees at Dalymount, Richmond, Tolka Pk and Tallaght Stadium are regular attendees to support the Dubs in Croker from my experience.
A lot of GAA clubs work well enough with their soccer counterparts locally. There are some cases where they don't of course, but seeing as soccer and GAA are so linked in Dublin both need to work with one another, particularly in more disadvantaged areas.

David Healy said last night he'd love if the Wee Province gets Ukraine away in Semi Final and then a home Final at Windsor Park.....sounds good, but if Austria and Denmark lose tonight then Austria,Denmark, Italy and Turkey into Pot 1 and Ukraine drop to Pot 2.
It's highly unlikely Austria and Denmark will lose so Pot 1 will consist of Italy, Turkey, Poland and Ukraine.
Ukraine away would be the cushy draw!

I even see it here in Donegal were I'd say a lot of soccer fans are very anti GAA, it's a weird state of mind wherever it originates.

Replying To BarneyGrant: "Being born here at a minimum! Unless of Irish descent obviously." So a lad who has an Irish grandmother and never set foot in the country, never contributed to Irish society here or elsewhere, or paid taxes here, and maybe even plays soccer for England is more Irish than a fella spent most of his life here since he was in his teens or early 20s? Plays for Ireland, pays his taxes here, and is rearing his family here?

Replying To TheFlaker: "I don't like the project player situations in rugby but also not shocked to see Barney weighing in. The Irish Patriot himself." Ah yes, the Grants rowed here in a corach 2500 years ago ;-)

Replying To ConyersHill04: "Mulligan from Latton is the only keeper I'd have ahead of Forde in the county." I disagree with you here I feel forde is Definatky up there with Beggan if not better, is impact to the game outfield aswel as leadership shouting on from the goal I think is hard beat.

We'll have the same amount of trophies as yee at the end of 2026 no matter what divisions we are in. Just to explain in case you don't understand...that is zero trophies. Super.

What do the olaoi oconghaile at spideal play? or ocurrain at breathachs. Rory Cunningham
What you've always said is nonsense" Agree, if they are good enough they have been looked at
Thats one thing PJ and co cant be faulted for. There might be an outlier but everyone is given a chance, even Varley from Clonbur was looked at, and most of the county would never have heard of him.
