I have been in Croker on a few occasions and it is wonderful but dont try to tell me that the GAA have built that on their own. As for their local stadia...yes they are great but what I mean about backward is that politically they were stuck in a timewarp for donkeys and other than a few pockets around the world it is very much a parocial sport. Thats what I mean by backward.

Gailege Uladh abu ! :D

The diference is that in the north we reduce the number of syllables used in words e.g. the name Ciaran would be pronounced 'Keern' (one syllable) in the north, and 'Kee-ar-on' or 'Keer-on' in the south.

But no-one in the north would pronounce 'hole' as 'heeel'.... :confused:

C�n saghas r�im�is � sin!?!??

Ciar�n = Keern?? only in the mind of retards *can i say that?;) *
Keern is said by those accustomed to the anglicised version of the name or those ignorant to the purpose of fada's...:(

the point is it's ciar- �-n... it's not a dialect that makes the name different, it's the brain speaking it:)
