Com'on now Dodge you know well what I mean. The Dublin Bias is the bias shown towards the "big 4".
What I see is a Dublin man who has been on the inside of one of the four Dublin clubs and knows exactly what the scéal is.

Go back to what you said - that a decision between two Dublin clubs showed Dublin bias, or are you really that thick?Quote:

He must be a thick fooker eh Macy?
btw No allegation of bias in anything Mahon said (just a lack of knowledge - Pats aren't full time!)
Mahon pi$$ed off aboutNow Macy a rose by any other name.Quote:
preferential treatment
Pats aren't fulltime pro but they've got a decent system where their players can train as full time pro's by taking mornings off work.
If you read the piece you'll see that he doesn't mention Dublin once. The phrase used is influiential teams. The three games we had to play in 6 days earlier in the season was especially stupid as the Pats game was moved for no good reason.Quote:

So its not a dublin bias but a bias towards big clubs? Are Cork not a big club? Make up your mind SÓCcfc

That u should even have to ask.
This has all the symptoms of a big dublin club bias, slightly different i would think to the bias that exists whenever we play but a bias none the less.
How many times Dodgey boy? :rolleyes:Quote:

When we say Dublin bias we're not talking about how Merrion Square puts UCD, Dublin City or even Bray before non Dublin teams.
The 4 Dub clubs get things their way, the rest of the league fits in around them.
:rolleyes: The decision that started off this thread was a decision between 2 of the big 4, so how was that an example?Quote:

How did an arguement between Bohs and Shels show that the 4 big Dub teams get their way?Quote:

And how many favours have Pats or Rovers got in the last few years? Serious question...
Jeez Macy as a Pats fan yourself I though you'd know they are from Dublin too.Quote:

Whats that you say, oh they agreed with Longford to put it back if there was a reply. Not that simple the league, can and should have compelled Longford, Pats, Bohs and Shels to play that game but in the end gave in to the Dubs wishes. If it was City in a similar position it would not have happened so easily.
But they never went against our wishes - we actually backed Pats appeal.... The whole thing came down to Shels wanting to play, and Bohs not wanting to. Us and Pats just got caught in the crossfire... So whatever spin you want to try and put on it, it was a decision between Shels stance and Bohs stance!?!?!?!
This discussion is pointless.
The FAI recieved an appeal from both Pats and Bohs. Now why would Pats appeal if they have arranged to play their game some other time?
:sighs:
We we're brought in against our wishes, so that Bohs couldn't say "well you let Pats cancel their game" no more, no less. They appealed because that was the ONLY reason they game was being forced through.
I agree with macy, thick fooker
Now there's a shock:rolleyes:Quote:
