Attention-seeking?
Geysir and GR have an established relationship over hundreds of posts, and both are hearty contributors to the Eligibility Thread. If Geysir goes OTT on GR, then GR can handle himself and vice-versa.
The same can't be said of TOWK who is a relative newbie but who appeared to use the eligibility posts of GR as a stick to beat him, even though his familiarity with the thread is unclear and most likely questionable. That'd be my take on why people were keen to set him straight on GR.
Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?
His assumption is probably based on the fact that those on here he never meets at these kind of away games. There literally are only a couple of hundred at most at these types of games and you get to know them all. Now if he tried the same BotNet at say Scotland away i dont think he could identify them all.
You see the same faces and very qiuckly you learn if they are on foot.ie or ybig.ie. I've met a lot of the regular posters on here and most dont go to away games, 1 maybe or at most 2 a campaign. Id say its 9:1 those you would meet off ybig.ie(compared with foot.ie) for example.
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Yeah, I'm not sure about that. I mean, TOWK's comments prompted quite a few posters to point out GR's respectful posting, lack of sectarianism, lack of wumming, worthwhile contributions, all round top guy in fact. Then GR gets portrayed as the paranoid protector of OWC, but nobody seems bothered. I don't see how they fit.
Anyhow, I've said what I wanted to say. As you commented, GR can handle himself if he chooses to.
Back on topic: the group could have been worse, but it's hard to gauge Ireland in comparison to Scotland or Poland without seeing us play a few more times under O'Neill. We probably have a better idea of what Poland and Scotland are capable of than we do of our own team right now.
I'm glad you mentioned Paul here, because in all the hullabaloo about that rascal Gather Round (attention which he certainly doesn't deserve), it's too easy to hide the concerted campaign of bullying that Paul has had to endure here at the hands of certain cruel hearted posters. And now you Danny have the cheek to imply that Paul's 'deviant' behaviour is at fault here, that he deserves what he gets and that your part in this campaign is an act of generosity merely to rectify his behaviour.
