Why does Boards.ie soccer forum hate Foot.ie

**irishultra** · 06/04/2011, 6:00 PM

makes no sense. the loi heads hate it over there.

**Mr A** · 06/04/2011, 6:08 PM

Because they believed the Roddy to Bohs April fool thing and still resent it.

I dont know but I was banned by some barstooler moderator after about 3 posts... I didnt even say anythign bad. Just expressed my opinions in a level headed manner in discussions why Irish football is the way it is. They dont like actual football supporters it seems. Its a wonder he didnt ban the posters who were slagging off the fact I supported an Irish club... Never again, the idiots on there aren't worth it. There's no convincing 90% of them.

Buller, its hard to get banned from there and they are far more leniant than on here , so you must have acted the maggot or something.

Thats a fairly childish thread.
"They have a cool jersey so I'll support them"

The last time they did something like this a few people from here (me included) went over and asked why don't they just support an Irish team instead of picking a forgien team. It was a simple question with a few valid points as to why not pick up an Irish team to support. We didn't get banned but within a few hours all comments contrary to their thinking about supporting a team from Germany or somewhere where deleted without reason. Thinking back I should have put in a complaint to some moderator outside the football section. It's a discussion board but they made sure there was no discussion on the matter.

Why does one bunch of nerds hate another bunch of nerds? Presumably they found out someone on foot.ie got a ride somewhere, or figured out a way to bypass the censors or similar whatever flaots their boat

Otherwise its just your standard EPL lover frightened to have his TV worship questioned, or someone banned from here still bitter about it.

Its the internet lads, no one in the real world cares about message boards. Are they still pretending to follow some Dutch crowd?

**Mr A** · 07/04/2011, 10:21 AM

I think we've taken crap from them for far too long, it's starting to hurt our rep. The only way to settle it is clear.

This ends now bitches!

Where did mypost get that grenade by the way?

Seems about the only person posting about them now is a Dutch lad.

Can't be - I don't ever remember the Boards.ie forum going mysteriously "offline" whenever Celtic/Chelsea/Man Utd/Liverpool lose

That's the kinda thing that makes me not want to follow a LOI team.

The prospect that you might actually watch some football? The fact that LOI supporters would prefer other Irish people followed an Irish team instead of an American one?

It's not a grenade: it's a small pineapple. It makes mypost explosive....

Thats an embarrassment to Irish footy fans

**Charlie Darwin** · 07/04/2011, 5:44 PM

The Dutch one Pineapple Stu linked to is even better. Supporting a Dutch second division team.

And the Dutch guy just doesn't get it. He was all offended when people gave out to the boards.ie chaps about the Go Ahead Eagles thing, saying it was completely possible to follow a Dutch team as well as your local Irish team. He has no idea how deeply messed up Irish football culture is!

**The Lep** · 07/04/2011, 11:06 PM

Its a soccer forum so whats the big deal ? there are plenty of threads on there about LOI football. Maybe the posts on this thread is an answer to the thread title.
