Where are my posts?

[Son_Of_Erin32]

Both of them seem to have mysteriously disappeared.

Any particular reason why?

nothing mysterious about it. mods moved one of them to rubbish, and gave you a reason for it

[dahamsta]

Take a hint "son of erin".

There'll be horses heads in your bed next

Poor old Joyce'd turn in his grave at the comparison.

Keep the faith Son of Eirn-with you all the way
Welcome to the forum bud

[dahamsta]

That's precisely why I wouldn't have you as a mod on Foot.ie Liam. We don't like smartarses or troublemakers, especially when they're adolescent.

Apologies-I wasn't trying to be a smartarse or a trouble maker-just expressing my opinion and trying to give Son of Erin a good welcome to the forum; as for being an adolescant I can't really do anything about that

[liam88]

Wooooooohooooow.

Liam wants to be a mod.

The secret is out.

I thought seeing as Damhamsta was modding the Cobh forum he might want a hand from a Cobh fan that's all

[Schumi]

You'd need something to make sense of most of the drivel posted there!

[liam88]

seeing as we're in specifics-Cobh BOARD

[dahamsta]

Cobh forum? Dunno about a hand, but he definitely wouldn't need a dictionary anyway...

ROFL... Leave 'em alone Conor, they're very well behaved these days, which suits me just fine.

Liam, "Son of Erin" - the handle says it all - isn't welcome here by the majority of posters. Hence my comment "take a hint".

It should be noted that I don't particularly like singling out posters, I'm just sick of the Celtic thing coming up over and over again. The impression /I/ get, as an administrator, is that on the whole eL and Ireland fans aren't particularly interested in talking about Celtic, not least because on the whole the Celtic fans that come here are smartarses and troublemakers. And eL and Ireland fans get priority on this site. It's what Foot.ie is all about: Irish soccer. Real Irish soccer.

But hey, correct me if I'm wrong.

[liam88]

aye fair play-so if we keep our Celtic posts confined to General football 100% is that ok or would you rather we didn't make Celtic posts at all-that's a serious question, I'm not being sarcastic.

[liam88]

on the whole the Celtic fans that come here are smartarses

Also there aren't many exclusivly Celtic fans on here, if any. Most will also support Ireland and many also support an el team. I'm an Irish fan, a Cobh fan and a Celtic fan in that order as far a football is concerned

Fair enough if eL posters are not interested in talking about Celtic no one is forcing them to type on it. If a Celtic post is in any section outside General Football then I don’t believe that anyone would object to where you move it to.

I do object to the implication that to support Celtic means that you cannot support Ireland as I and most of my friends actively do both, very passionately. As I have pointed out before Celtic (and to some extent Hibs) represent something very Irish in the same way that an Irish social Centre, a Irish advice Centre, a GAA team and many other institutions in Britain do. That is the sad and long history of emigration and the fact Irish people have had to band together for financial and emotionally support each other in the face of well documented rascism from the host population. This has seen some of its worst practices in the West of Scotland, and as was discussed on here with Rangers fans throwing potatoes on the pitch at the last Old Firm game or a visit to followfollow.com shows these practices still exist. As anyone who watches any Celtic game will know the amount of tricolours that are on show at Celtic games shows that in the face of this rascism the descendents of the Irish into Scotland have remained very proud of their background.

I do whole-heartedly agree to the idea that Celtic fans living in Ireland should attend Irish League football (apart from the fact that a football club does represent where you are from, I also believe that if people go to domestic football it will pump more money into the game and facilitate the development of young players for Ireland.) However this argument should also apply to Barstool Man Utd., Liverpool Arsenal etc ‘fans’ as well as the those who turn up to Ireland internationals without darkening the door of any football ground (eL of not) from one season to the next

I have no doubt that Celtic fans on this board are equally fed up of the consent attacks on the club and its identity as it often seems like an attack on our identities

Finally when I joined up to this board it was not to spend my time arguing about Celtic, being a smartarse or a trouble maker and I don’t believe that I have been and certainly don’t intend to start now, however I will not except anyone having a go at my friends or myself.

If the Celtic "fans" are fed up then maybe they should just go to an actual Celtic website (of which I'm sure there are many) and stop annoying us with their constant drivel.
Why not use foot.ie to post about EL matters etc. and save your Scottish crap for a site where people actually give a sh!t.
I honestly think people only post about Celtic here to annoy the rest of us, they know the reaction they'll provoke yet they still constantly post thier crap. I can't understand it.

[dahamsta]

That's as far as I got "Pat O' Banton", my "Norf Landan" friend. I'll give you 24 hours to demonstrate the implication, and after that I'll dole out a ban like I do to all the rest of the accusatory muppets we get here that are unable to support their idiotic assertions with statements of fact.

Tick, tick, tick.

This is the implication that I mean. Why is there a seperation between Ireland fans and Celtic fans? What I am pointing out is that Celtic fans can be Ireland fans just as they can support any club of their choice.

So on the General football section you cannot post about Celtic? I thought it was for all non eL/ National team matters as I posted earlier if Celtic posts are on anything else apart from General football they should be moved.
