At least we're intorducing the young fans who started coming to the games at the start of the season what it means to support the biggest soap opera in Ireland

Exactly, you honestly think their gonna stay for the quality of the football in this league?:p

[Risteard]

What did he do?

[dutchie]

I think we have a few that are well over the top,its the first year of this new set up,some of the negetive people on here should have a look at the Limerick GAA set up where all the fans get behind the team through good times and bad.

Funny that, you'd be hard pushed to find these die hard GAA fans over the last 8/9 years, amazing though the amount of them that have popped up in the last two months.

Correct. GAA always like that.

[joeSoap]

Ther majority of massive crowds at matches, be it GAA, Rugby, Football, whatever are fair weather anyway. All sports are the same. When successful, they get heavily supported, when not successful, they don't.

As simple as it sounds its true, i'll only speak from rams point of view but that is defintily the way. Successs brings crowds.

I hear that Neil Warnock is available!!!!

Jebus H
I remember posting in another 'He must go' thread, asking what happened aswell before, only to be told 'He's a mercenary' etc etc.
What did he do?

[joeSoap]

From what I gather he was rather sarky with a group of fans during and after the Kilkenny game on Saturday night. They were questioning his ability and tactical nous, he got peeved....

Basically he should be above reproach when it comes to criticism. He should be able to take it accordingly when things aren't going well in the same way he laps up praise and exudes arrogance when things are going well.

Life as a football manager really......

I know it's the fans right to have a go at him if they want, but vocally questioning his management straight after a game is a bit much. The "fans" having a go at him are probably best described as "hurlers on the ditch".

but surely, teams in bottomm half of tables do it every week, when rams used never win it happened every ramblers game, part and parcel of the game lads, he should take it.

imagine he was in Alan Curbishley's position.:eek:

[joeSoap]

But in fairness to the "hurlers on the ditch" they are the die hard element of the clubs fan base that follows the side around the country every fortnight, spending good money doing so.

To see an ex Irish International and LOI Legend abuse you and generally act the knob week in week out must be a bit frustrating for them. :ball:

Point taken JS but his reaction was probably a build up of frustration due to the shambles taking place off the field. I've heard that cash is so tight that the U-21 side have been asked to drive their own cars to away matches because the club can't afford buses for them. What a joke!!

Calls for McGee out is well OTT as far as I'm concerned. Abusing the players and manager with vitriol and personal abuse is not on either. How did they expect McGee to react? I'm told the abuse was so bad that a few fans can count themselves lucky that McGee didn't knock their block off. The players were not one bit impressed with what went on. I spoke to one player in Dublin at the weekend and he was disgusted with the carry on of some fans in Kilkenny. That sort of s**t is not on. These guys are not highly paid professionals, they're just ordinary guys who do not deserve that sort of abuse and I include McGee in that. Die hards or not, it's not an excuse to be out of order

Jesus was it that bad.Would love to see the reaction on here then. Still, football is a harsh world you have to expect that, bet what they said is nothing that hasnt being said at other grounds before, and LTID is a big lad would fancy him to come out on top. :D

You were always pretty vitriolic and heavy handed with your own criticisms of O'Connor on this site. He too was one of those ordinary guys who do not deserve that sort of abuseas well, was he not? And I can never remember him reacting like that gowl did in Kilkenny on Friday nite. And before you get all high and mighty saying your criticisms of O'Connor were constructive, I suggest you read back over some of your earlier posts while he was in charge.

Ski deserves nothing but what he gets. He plays for it.

Your posts here are fairly ridiculous at best so I count myself quite lucky not to share the same twisted opinion as you. You'd do well to get your "facts" straight mate.

Why shouldn't they be able to do it. Criticism is part and parcel of the game and if a person becomes a manager they should be able to take it.

These "hurlers on the ditch" remember will be there when things go belly up and the sunshiners dissapear when there is nothing to play for.

In my opinion from what I saw of him during the recent match against us he is a fool who acts the hard guy and plays up to supporters to cover his other deficiancies

Some of the people defending him might want to look at this (http://www.shelbournefc.ie/images/livegame/image7.jpg)and see what happens if someone oversteps his mark and alienates the hardcore. Picture was taken at our recent away game against $hels.

Agree with everything you said, he also got sent off against us too. Muppet. You pay your money your entitled to a rant.

[sadloserkid]

Paul McGee would do well to cut out the preening and dramatics pitchside and aim to get through 90 minutes without some form of needless incident. If the man's well of tactical and management nous was even half the size of his ego he would be managing on a far grander scale than this one. If people are overly critical that doesn't mean that he has to lower himself to responding surely? Even Danny Drew managed to bahave himself on the sideline.

We're no different to anybody else, we have people who routinely slaughter players for no reason whatsoever. I personally think that one in particular is a complete embarrasment whose constant criticism of good players should they misplace one pass is only tolerated because of his 'enthusiasm'. But if Paul McGee can't bring himself to ignore that and focus on matters on the pitch he's really in the wrong business.

Tbh I can't see McGee sticking around in the long term anyway and regardless I wouldn't be losing much sleep over his latest histronics. He may be turning into a horrible ambassador for the club but I'd be more concerned at the failure of any of the players he's introduced to senior football in the city to make any kind of credible, lasting impression (Nigel Keady and Padraig Moran being the only exceptions that come to mind) and seeing if he can actually turn around the current slump in form.

Agreed!

[booster 03]

yer all mad!!!

it wasnt long ago ye were all hailing his heroics in assembling a squad in a matter of weeks before the start of the season, l37 are punchin above their weight since the season started, be realistic like ye all just wanted a senior team in the league at the start of the season and now half way through yer stil in with a realistic chance of makin 3rd place...

ye should bring back o connor and see how ye get on then!!

[4tothefloor]

Aside from making a joke about Noel being a butcher, which he is and was in every sense of the word, my criticism of O'Connor was always football related and with reference to his s**t tactics and complete lack of man management skills. I did not get involved in personal abuse of O'Connor. I also think you need to look up the meaning of the word vitriol in the dictionary. Like with everything else, you think you know the meaning of it, but you actually don't really know it at all ;) And never once at a game have I abused, either personally or football related, any manager or player from my own club, and that includes the likes of Jamie Nolan and Noel O'Connor.

Off with you now to search the archives of foot, you sad act :rolleyes:

You pay your money your entitled to a rant.
You pay your money to personally abuse someone, yea? You do in your fcuk. Constructive criticism yea, personal abuse, no.


If people are overly critical that doesn't mean that he has to lower himself to responding surely?
The fans shouldn't be lowering themselves to that level in the first place. And I think 'overly critical' is being a tad kind in this instance

Maybe Paul McGee should be man enough to take it, but does that justify OTT and out of order personal abuse? No it does not. One fan in particular was identified by the player I spoke with and he was livid over it. He told me his name and knew who he was. So I doubt the players will have much time for this particular fan from now on. There were also a few players he said that were genuinely upset both at half time and after the game with what went on. As a member of the SC committee, we now have a problem on our hands whereby the SC has a bad name with the players as they are aware that it was an official SC bus that travelled to the Kilkenny game. That's something that we are now going to have to put right. That s**t is not on. I don't care what anyone says about being entitled to a rant. Rant away but be constructive. Give personal abuse - expect to get it back, and I for one do not blame Paul McGee one bit. It's gas, fans think they can personally abuse a manager just cos they pay a tenner entrance fee. And on the occasion that a manager should respond, shock horror, the toys are thrown out of the pram and all of a sudden the abuser is the poor victim :rolleyes:

[Monkfish]

I wasent there! am i still in their good books? acually i dont care, still support them though, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah **** whinge moan blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah ski out! blah blah blah blah blah blah noel o conner blah blah blah ger finnin blah blah blah blah blah share packs blah blah blah blah blah markets field blah blah have these people no lives? blah blah blah that fellas such a muppet, watch me bully him on the internet blah blah blah blah feckin lightweights blah blah blah waddia mean E7 for a burger blah blah blah stop making noise with that drum blah blah blah blah blah blah pat grace blah blah blah blah blah blah wouldnt go up and watch that lot but il sit here and go blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

oops sorry, been on a night out with Irvine Welsh and fell into a bit of a 'state' there for a few minutes, sorry!

[bellavistaman]

You pay your money to personally abuse someone, yea? You do in your fcuk. Constructive criticism yea, personal abuse, no.

You know what i mean, its all part and parcel of the game, McGee asks for players to break opponents legs, in my opinion thats worse thatn fans shouting at the manager.

[joeSoap]

Thats where a manager should be able to show his professionalism and turn a blind eye to it all. Over the years I've seen NoelO'Connor, Tommy Lynch, Noel King and Dave Connell put up with some pretty savage personal abuse, but never ever re-act.

Roddy Collins, possibly the most despised man in EL history never re-acted to some of the most chronic abuse and always just smirked and walked away. Big Damo had a running battle with Dermot Keely for many years which wasn't the prettiest at times, yet Keely always just laughed it off afterwards.

McGee needs to cop on. Big time.

Agree totally, Pat Dolan used get very personal abuse too, by god he took it the right way. little snigger, take the **** out of himself too.

[Battery Rover]

Constructive criticism yea, personal abuse, no.

Don't agree with personal abuse at matches full stop but McGee apparently is well able to do that on occasions from what I hear.

Was there a recent match where he did this to his own players

From what I read on here they still respect him but the reason behind that might be that they are getting away with things in training that another manager might crack down on like when Mickey O'Connor was with Athlone (not having to train more than once a week etc)

[sadloserkid]

What was actually said on Saturday?

[gael353]

From what i can gather, from my many trips around buckley park on Friday night, the team were playing so bad that some supporters got very frustrated and voiced their anger. Most just chanted along with whoever started any chant and "ski out" seemed to be the most common. one player (a defender) was abused by a non limerick based supporter. another fan had it out with ski on the way off the pitch. Dispite chanting "ski out" for most of the second half, these other fans (who were now facing the team and ski) shut their mouths and stayed num! That fan who did open his mouth is now being Vilified and scapegoated by the quite ones who have now forgotten that they chanted through a bout of amnesia. Alcohol had a lot to play in what some persons shouted at ski, and i spoke to some of the grown up players tonight and they have no problem with any supporter.

[joeSoap]

I think what really p1ssed Ski off was:

"There's only one Tommy Gaynor,
One Tommy Gaynor,
There's only one Tommy Gaynor"

sung in great heart, not by the Kilkenny fans. :D

[4tothefloor]

the grown up players
Have we signed some children or something? :eek:

Why does it matter what you think?? You weren't even there


How did they expect McGee to react?

See above for a list of managers who have put up with far, far worse

The man is a clown


I'm told the abuse was so bad that a few fans can count themselves lucky that McGee didn't knock their block off.

WTF??

I said and I quote:

"Who the f*** do you think you are McGee telling us to f*** off and we travelling the length and breath of the country every week only to be served up that s***. You're a f***ing disgrace"

Nice thing to say?? No.

But if the chimp wants to make a vain attempt at knocking my block off because of it that's his problem as far as I'm concerned



The players were not one bit impressed with what went on. I spoke to one player in Dublin at the weekend and he was disgusted with the carry on of some fans in Kilkenny.


One fan in particular was identified by the player I spoke with and he was livid over it. He told me his name and knew who he was.

Maybe it's this type of cowardice that has them in the position they find themselves

Felt the need to cry to you in Dublin but hadn't the guts to confront the "mystery fan" at the time


So I doubt the players will have much time for this particular fan from now on.

Well boo hoo hoo


As a member of the SC committee, we now have a problem on our hands whereby the SC has a bad name with the players as they are aware that it was an official SC bus that travelled to the Kilkenny game. That's something that we are now going to have to put right.

Well that can be easily sorted

You're all more than welcome to your little cowards club


Give personal abuse - expect to get it back, and I for one do not blame Paul McGee one bit.

You consider:

"McGee Out"
"Athlone Reject"
"Mercenarie"

To be personal abuse warranting a fcuking out of it??


Agreed!

You NeedToKnow are a hypocrite


That fan who did open his mouth is now being Vilified and scapegoated by the quite ones who have now forgotten that they chanted through a bout of amnesia.

Supressing the feelings of members of the supporters club does not work and any person trying to do this through censorship should just give up supporting soccer. Being in a supporters club isn't about being friends with the players it is about supporting the team and voicing your opinions whatever they maybe.

If a player is sh*t he deserves to be told that as long as it isn't personal because he is getting paid to do a job . We had the same issue up here when we were asked to censor people travelling with us (We took a stance that we believed was right)and when you visit us again you will see what that has done to the level of support. There is more atmosphere on the moon.

I know I have spoke to some about this in person but no one up here knows if Skee applied for the Athlone job up but there was a strong rumour that it was the case. Can Limerick do us one favour and sign him up for life so we don't end up with him here next season as from as far as I can see and I have the full match from when we played you in Jackman he spends 70 mins talking to people behind him acting the big boy instead of doing what he should be doing and that is managing the team on the pitch.

Just look at a couple of things he has done this season. He gets €800 in fines for acting the big boy on the sideline while apparently players are being asked to drive themselves to matches. It is your money that is paying this for him when it should be going to develop the club.
Secondly can someone give me a reason as to why he kept on Anthony Hayes when he let 3 other players go other than his dad and Skee are allegedly golf buddies / friends.
It is things like this you should be looking at.

I am not questioning anyones loyalty here but if half the people involved and attending Limerick 37 had half the passion and love of the club as Lim Till I Die does then it would be a far better place.

Youve been missing for a while Lim it's been a quiet place without you.:D

[sadloserkid]

It takes somebody from Athlone to come on and talk some sense in this thread. Athlone! :eek:
