Reporting every training ground injury as a freak one (http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2009/1007/brushr.html). Why are there never any routine training ground injuries?
A man can have no greater love than give 90 minutes for his friends.
Use of the word 'Deffo'/'Defo'.

kevin kilbane trying to impersonate a full back.
Here on a technicality.
Parents smoking in a car in which their kids are also sitting.
Giving up a 2-1 lead with 2 mins to go.
That makes my blood boil. How dare they! My ex smokes with my sons in the car and when they come home from being with their dad they smell of smoke. Its so disgusting and shows a total lack of regard for the kids. Really really hate it.
Also hate how some parents let kids travel in car without a seat belt. Feck sake, do you not love your child?? Total insanity. When my kids were small and would try to take off their belts in the car or would refuse to put their belt on, I used to tell them the car wouldnt work and would slow down and pull in to side of the road momentarily to make them think the car was breaking down. The belts went on fast and now neither could think of even just sitting in the car without their belts on.
People who wear Celtic jerseys to Ireland matches
Here on a technicality.
Driving well below the speed limit on a good road and yet won't pull in when a car is behind them.
People who don't use the slow lane on a road and people who drive in the right hand lane of motorway/dual carriageway even when not over-taking.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
"Olé olé olé" crap...It's Spanish ffs
Cumann Peile Dún Dealgan - Champions 2015 (too many accolades to be typing)
Termonbarry Athletic TID!
But it has a fada!
Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
- Statements that start with the phrase, "I don't mean to be rude but..."
- People who don't 'get' Bob Dylan.
- Poor service in shops/bars etc. I walked into the pub recently and the barman left me standing at the bar for a minute or so as he leaned on the bar and fiddled with his phone, so I left. A month or two ago, I got served in a trendy city centre bar (The Church, at the end of Henry St.) by a waiter who brought us coffee while talking on his phone. I won't be going back.
- Sporting failure. My first Derry City game was the Cup Final in 1997, I had been a Leeds United fanatic since around 1995 but gradually one began to assume more importance than the other. Anyway, I've seen Derry in a fair few cups but I have yet to see my team win a title.
- Chat shows where the host only asks tame, easy questions. If I was having a chat with Tom Cruise, my first question would be along the lines of, "Tom, what the f***, you moron?" rather than the fawning tripe Jonathan Ross serves up on a weekly basis.
- Anyone Irish wearing an EPL jersey. Yes, it may come across as bitter, and yes, everyone has a right to wear whatever jersey they want, but if I meet someone for the first time and they're wearing a Liverpool shirt, I look down on them from the start.
- Adverts with stupid, childish men, and clever women. Not that I have anything against clever women, it's the male stereotype I have an issue with. If it was the other way around it would definitely be deemed sexist.
- The Afternoon Show
- The phrase "going forward..." When did this suddenly spring up? We have perfectly adequate, and (in the case of 'henceforth') even elegantly beautiful ways of saying 'From now on...' and yet people still use this inane phrase. It used to be used just on policy documents I read in work, now it seems to have wormed it's way into everyday usage. Please, please stop.
- People who start looking for their bus money only when getting on the bus.
- Busaras
- Pier Morgan. Last week I was watching X Factor and he was being quite nice to one of the contestants and I actually found myself thinking that he couldn't be that bad. So I re-watched his appearance on HIGNFY (available here, here, and here) to remind myself what a vicious, arrogant, self-promoting, vindictive, bullying little odious weasel he actually is.
- Ticketmaster
- Temple Bar (except Porterhouse and, until recently, Eamonn Doran's)
- Jonathan Rees Myers

Jesus Charming man i think i agree with all your points!!!!
One that gets my goat is people who have showers at 12/1/2/3 at night waking me up and knowing that we all have to work in the morning
Expecting that anyone who works in IT will spend hours fixing your screwed up PC and then not even showing any gratitude.
It's amazing how much it happens!

When i'm using our internal work IM system and people put lots of dots at the end of the sentence , I just think it looks bad
ME - ok I've done that now
THEM - Ok Thanks.....
You can't spell failure without FAI
There are lots of annoying typing tics out there. I've seen one person sign all her(?) forum posts with _***_ for no reason at all.
Of course, the humble ellipsis has its place too...
