good man joxer, a run in the league and the dubs are mouthing about other teams not having talent. But that image is down to the media, right?

mayo were in the league final last year- it means nothing unless ur a dub- for the last 12 years the league is meaningless to the dubs suddenly it has become important as they happen to be in the final- ya gotta love the dubs they are some laugh watch them run to the papers proclaiming stardom and then in july they will ridicule the same papers for building them up and the lauging circle that is dublin will start again next january 'there is a good feeling in the camp lads... it could be our year, we are traing at half 4 in the morning' its one big comedy show

Double standards lads, when Geraghty threw a few digs against the Dubs in 07 he was to be hung, drawn and quartered but of course when Cluxton does it he's a legend, come now lads, you's are better than that.

Just for the record though I was happy to see McAteer getting a slap.

Objective number 1 2011 = Reach League Final - Completed - Win lose or draw - We have achieved a significant goal in this teams development

On the way defeating Armagh/Monaghan away - Something almost unheard of from recent Dublin teams

On the Big pitch - Cork/Kerry/Mayo/Down - Enough said. Simple as that… you couldn't ask for anymore

With a load of young lads being played out of position.... a makeshift defence/ a makeshift midfield / playing a new system on the big pitch - while missing a dozen first team players

Yes we have nothing to be happy about…. Down with this sort of thing - Who do we think we are doing well for ourselves all of a sudden…!

Yes - Meaningless preparation for the championship

12 week suspicion for Cluxton and they should offer the other charity team a replay.

You shouldnt be throwing digs in a charity match... but hey it was FC Darndale! :)

I'd be interested to hear what was said...

Anyways hopefully it raises awarness for the Charity involved - I mean would you have even known about this match otherwise?

;)

What do you mean never seen that side to Cluxton before? You must have a very short memory.

Was he not red carded a few years ago for booting some one up the backside, effetively costing Dublin a place in the All Ireland final? I forget the game, was it Mayo or Armagh maybe?

You've slightly exagerated the incident against Armagh in 2003. A stupid trip on an Armagh player that resulted in a deserved red card.

In anyways fair play to Cluxton and McAteer. Not many people were aware of the charity match the weekend but now the entire country is talking about it.

Well done to the lads.

Obviously staged. If not - Cluxton comes out as a bit of a plonker to be honest.

maybe the charity could ask the 2 boys to take part in a proper charity boxing match to raise funds for autism? Could take place in the national stadium and have a few other cross code bouts as an undercard??

Mesamis - dont be dressing up "that" incident calling it a little trip. He drew a full force boot on the man and was rightly sent off. I wouldn't mind - all the opposing player did was tug at his jersey. I certainly am not exaggerating the instant, nor did the ref who sent him off. If you care to remember back, all the pundits on tv that day were singling him out too as having cost Dublin the game.

Anyhow talk I see that it was planned so all this talk might be immaterial.

Granted he rarely is in trouble - but my point is if it did happen, well then it's not the first time and that's a fact.

It may be a fact but it's still an incredibly weak comparison... Lads get sent off in GAA all the time.

If it was planned do you see anyone apologising for their comments?

He deserved to be sent off and he certainly was stupid. He defo cost Dublin in that game.

You have exaggerated the extent of his kick though.

To all you Dublin posters. Will you please go back and read the 1st post in this thread?

Dub1 says that he's never seen this side to Cluxton before. I have just reminded him that it has happened before. Thats my point. End of story. If you want to start a thread saying about how great Cluxton is well belt away. I'm sure you'll all have the page filled in no time.
