:mad: Corky check your facts before you speak!!!!! :mad:

The rule 42 thing was a board decision (or a Frank Murphy decision).Almost all the clubs in the county wanted to change the rule but the board decided not to take a vote which was a joke,prob because the the lads at the top knew it would be defeated.thats only a handfull of small minded people. :)

Ollie, point taken, it was the first example that came to mind and woe betide anyone on here without an example :o Suppose what i'm getting at is the whole Peoples Republic thing and that attitude which I agree is probably a minority, but a large enough one as far as I can gather. I find it strange that one place in the whole of Ireland pertains to be so unique and different (better??) than the rest of us that it should be a republic. But from what i'm reading here that attitude probably p155e5 of a lot of Cork people as well.

Easy... it was a dig at Bray, not you. Pretty much like a lot of the thread has been a dig at some area or other. I'll stick to slagging it for being South County Dublin instead to avoid offence... :cool:

The same thing is in Spain with cataluna and the basque region.they look at themselves as a different country.
the whole peoples republic of cork(proc) thing is just a bit of fun for most of us any way.(as the tayto ad says there is always one)
If you look at the proc website its just havin a laugh.

Jaysus KT - Letterkenny is not a big town !! Not even in Irish terms !

Sligo - now that's a big town. So too Athlone, Omagh, Enniskillen,Tralee etc. Letterkenny is just a main street, with a looping weird one-way by-pass type thing round the side of it and a load of naff housing on a hill to the other side ! :eek: :) It's barely the size of Strabane....!

I meant that there are big towns close to me so i would not go beyond them(to letterkenny) that often. I did not mean that it was a town on a scale of Omagh, Enniskillen, Monaghan, no way! :eek: :D

It does get very busy for a small place that is why it can be good. A lot of the Fermanagh gang invade also.
