I dont know but I was banned by some barstooler moderator after about 3 posts... I didnt even say anythign bad. Just expressed my opinions in a level headed manner in discussions why Irish football is the way it is. They dont like actual football supporters it seems. Its a wonder he didnt ban the posters who were slagging off the fact I supported an Irish club... Never again, the idiots on there aren't worth it. There's no convincing 90% of them.

The last time they did something like this a few people from here (me included) went over and asked why don't they just support an Irish team instead of picking a forgien team. It was a simple question with a few valid points as to why not pick up an Irish team to support. We didn't get banned but within a few hours all comments contrary to their thinking about supporting a team from Germany or somewhere where deleted without reason. Thinking back I should have put in a complaint to some moderator outside the football section. It's a discussion board but they made sure there was no discussion on the matter.

Why does one bunch of nerds hate another bunch of nerds? Presumably they found out someone on foot.ie got a ride somewhere, or figured out a way to bypass the censors or similar whatever flaots their boat
Otherwise its just your standard EPL lover frightened to have his TV worship questioned, or someone banned from here still bitter about it.
Its the internet lads, no one in the real world cares about message boards. Are they still pretending to follow some Dutch crowd?
I think we've taken crap from them for far too long, it's starting to hurt our rep. The only way to settle it is clear.

Here's a crazy thought to all those that don't follow a LOI team go and adopt one of them, instead of following a MLS team, you might actually see a football match every now and again.
That's the kinda thing that makes me not want to follow a LOI team.
The prospect that you might actually watch some football? The fact that LOI supporters would prefer other Irish people followed an Irish team instead of an American one?

And the Dutch guy just doesn't get it. He was all offended when people gave out to the boards.ie chaps about the Go Ahead Eagles thing, saying it was completely possible to follow a Dutch team as well as your local Irish team. He has no idea how deeply messed up Irish football culture is!

Its a soccer forum so whats the big deal ? there are plenty of threads on there about LOI football. Maybe the posts on this thread is an answer to the thread title.

Boards is actualy a fine site.The Football section is a toss-hole though.
After hours is class and the "you laugh you lose" picture sub-forum is as funny as it gets.
Something for everybody on it although i would say that some of the mods on it are on a power crazy trip.
The "Go ahead Eagles" thread in the football sub-forum is a hoot.The only contributors to it are the Eagles fan and the forum mod:D
Have a look but dont post because your post will be removed.(as a few of us here already know)
Sad. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=1138

Anyway if its Foot.ie v Boards.ie ... then the winner plays YBIG.ie.
(YBIG were granted a bye into the final cos they know people.)
makes no sense. the loi heads hate it over there.
They hate irish people who follow irish clubs. A bit like the "Ireland" forum here...

the soccer forum on boards was basically a mess for ages. At various times to get posting privileges on the forum, you needed a minimum post count on boards as a whole, two different sponsors, each with their own minimum post count - eirebhoy was one of my sponsors when I was approved for posting - and it would still descend into childish insults and pointless infighting.
Threads would start on any subject and invariably descend into flame wars, Celtic and Rangers discussions were banned outright on at least one occasion, and with the sheer number of members on boards.ie, it was almost impossible to follow any discussion.
As for why they hate foot.ie, I honestly don't know. IMO the soccer forum on boards is far more moderated than here (and ybig is far less than either) but I've never really posted there for any more than a few days at a time, and not again for weeks and weeks.

Some people really do hate being reminded there's a domestic league in Ireland. Including, it appears, several of the moderators on boards.ie.

Didn't boards get hacked not that long ago and details were stolen?

Jaysus. Good to see it got laughed away for the most part.
My favourite post was the guy who suggested a "What League of Ireland team is the most English" thread. Perhaps we can have one?
