Well for starters there's the fact that you heap personal abuse onto somebody that you chastise for making personal abuse of others. Stones and greenhouses and all that.Quote:

Regarding your first point, I accept that it is a fair point. Although my original point was that in doing this to oppsing teams, in view and earshot of opposing fans (and home fans) may not portray the home crowd very favourably. But my follow up was unnecessary.
Regarding your second point, I think that you have twisted my point. I am not against banter at games, nor do I want a silent ground, as you have implied I am suggesting.
In my opinion the kind of stuff I have heard from him is not banter. My idea of banter is harmless fun, which that is not, I think.
I dont think he is the kind of fan that deserves to be "hailed" by other fans.
Perhaps you and I have different ideas on how we expect fans to behave, which is fair enough.
Anyway, I dont want this to degenerate into a slagging match, I do want Limerick to prosper, and by the opinions on this thread, there are very diferent opinions on how that is best achieved.

Clearly you and I have very different ideas of how things should be. I have no intention of getting into a slagging match either though.
I still can't personally think of any example of when anything has been said to opposition players and management that could be construed as over the top. Obviously this is my opinion and it would appear apparent that I have a higher tolerance for this kind of thing than you. Fair enough.
Ironically though a great many oppostion managers and players get on famously well with the person in question. By and large they don't read too much into any of what has been said and my advice to you would be to follow suit.
Again, you may not agree with me but I would prefer our home to be known for an intense, hostile vibe than a corinithian one.
Lads i appeal to all of you to show up for the game againts Finn Harps. Bring friends and family, its now more then ever that this/your club needs you. So come you blues.Quote:

Didnt know that, good to hear.
Just spoke to a friend on the phone and he told me the place has been cleaned up a lot recently. Cement around the ground, crush barriers, ticket booths, vendors selling food and drinks. He even said that the man in question has toned it down a bit.
So that negates much of what I was trying to say on this thread!!!
But good to hear that the place is starting to look better.
Also, how do I highlight ONLY PART of another post if I want to include it in my post??
What i do is click on quote at the end of the message and then delete the part of the quote that you don't want. :ball:Quote:

ok
You have to keep the square brackets and 'QUOTE=osarusan' and the square brackets and '/QUOTE' at the end. That shows where the quote starts and where the quote ends. You can delete anything within these. In fact you could even delete or insert stuff to make a quote selective or mean the exact opposite of what was intended. Though nobody on here really does that. :)Quote:
