Was talking to a few lads who follow a few different clubs on Saturday night and we ended up discussing / arguing who is the most hated player in the EL.
Owen Heary was the one guy that everyonr agreed on.
Any thoughts out there?

stuart byrne
Must confess I thought George O'Callaghan would run away with this one.
George O Callaghan for me too.
Must be jealousy in Eoin Heary's case as he has won 4 out of the last 5 titles..!!:eek:
In no real order....
Roy O'Donovan, Shane Robinson, Dave Rogers, Jason Byrne, Colin Hawkins and David Crawley
just because he's succesful doesnt mean he's not a ********...Quote:

Des Byrne. Seems to just try and injure other players instead of playing football.
Alan Reynolds
In the 90`s our own Tom McNulty for some reason wasn`t very well liked, Cork fans 1991, Bohs fans 1993, any special memories ?
actually anyone else for that matter ?
I'm very disappointed that Rennie hasn't been mentioned yet and I'm sure he'd be disappointed too. Hated by his former clubs Cork, Rovers and Longford and hated by the likes of Bohs for having played with Rovers, etc. Also hated for his general 'tough-tackling' approach to the game and his tendency to deliberately wind-up the opposition. Probably even hated by many in Waterford.
What a legend :D
Good shout.Quote:

Eric Lavine,Derek Mcarthy,Ian Rossiter.-3 players hated by every Galway fan.
Exactly, the incident with Killian Brennan in the Brandywell a while back and his elbow on JP Kelly are a few things that come to mind. He's a proper a'hole.Quote:

Hating Alan Reynolds is so 2004. He can't get arrested these days.
Buzzer Rowe, Andy Myler, Georgie Boy (I once got him substituted! :D) and probably Molloy for me, although I admire the latter two's talent.
O callaghan and Rogers are the only two that irritate me
soundest men in football awards would have to go to Keego and Des Byrne - they could join any club and no one at Pats would have a bad word to say about them - genuinely decent - to call dessie a thug is just ludicrous
Trevor Molloy for me,
Past : Pat Scully
Present : Trevor Molloy
Des Byrne has put in some disgusting tackles over the past couple of seasons. I've no idea what he's like off the pitch and couldn't really give a ****.
NOT AT ALL he's wholehearted - fully committed in the tackle - unlike some 'hard men' who are more into elbows and niggly off the ball cowardice - stand up rogers
rogers as well
thats not trueQuote:

Dave Rogers, Alan Reynolds, Ollie Cahill and Greg O'Halloran in no particular order.
An (dis)honourable mention for Dan Connor also.
Why which one of them do you like?Quote:

Dan Connor:mad:
Owen Heary:mad:
Shane Robinson:mad:
I hate Trevor Molloy
Narky wee fecker!
Dave Rogers. If he wasn't a footballer he'd be stuck at home in a dodgy part of Liverpoool serving out an ASBO.
Stuart Byrne - for obvious reasons. Delusional, an ungracious winner, and laughably seems to buy all of the spin that Ollie Byrne comes out with to justify his pathetic club... :o
Hard to see past Alan Reynolds. Genuine bully.
Ian Rossiter and Gareth Gorman - Rossitter for being a pr!ck off the pitch and Gorman for being one on it.
I always hated Mark Hutchison too for some reason from when he played with Sligo. We then signed him and he was brock. Left half way through the season to join Shels and somehow won a league medal.
Tom McNulty may be hated by other clubs but he is still loved up in Ballybofey. Few fantastic seasons with us and well liked by Harps fans. Hardman on the pitch but gent off it.
Past: Tony O Dowd, Scully, Fenlon, Barry Ferguson (But he's alright now ;) )
Present: Fabio O Brien, Honkins, Reynolds, Stu Byrne, Jason Byrne.
Would Stuey Byrne have made this list last week?
One of the best players in the league adn I know someone that knows him well from his Longford days who reckons he is one of the soundest. Apart from making a balls of himself on Friday night you couldn't hate him for it!
Couldn't agree more. Gave him dogs abuse as a player - he loved it too. A fantastic player, always wondered why he would play for Harps though... I had a few jars with him under the stand in Dundalk a few years ago, when he told me Glen Little (now Reading), who he played against that night, was the worst player he had ever played against. Definitely a gent off the pitch.Quote:

all time most hated player ever ever ever.......and the award goes to (drumroll please) Tony O'Dowd
Just like supporting Dublin City, then.Quote:
