I wouldn't worry about it though, Star readers probably don't understand most of the words.

I for one, while wishing them no specific ill-will, won't be feeding into or from the chum-bucket of X-Factor type programmes or X-Factor type contestants like the Conways (were they not in that Eurovision thing too?).

Now for a critique ...clicked on the link to their site and they're vile. A quartet of faces that apparently caught fire and were extinguished with the back of a shovel -something that wouldn't bother me in the least (but will bother their target market plenty) if the songs were any good -but they're not.

In fact they sound like a toned down version of Emma Bunton (no ...I wouldn't have thought that possible either but they've managed it.) tacked onto a half @rsed Corrs tribute band.

[RETRACTED, SEE HERE.]

Dunno if I'm allowed nominate (particularly after telling sligoman I didn't think he should be), but if I am, I nominate the entire sirhamish thread. It's the funniest thing I've read in ages, and it just gets funnier as it goes.

I don't know or care what's going on, the man's a character and no mistake.

**strangeirish** · 27/10/2005, 3:06 PM

In light of dahamsta's retraction, I will nominate the sirhamish thread.

I vote for 4tothefloor's honest contribution of limerick fc's season to date. It wasn't designed to make us laugh but it sure as hell got the point across.

I agree with jebus. I think the carry on at the club has been a joke this season. There was a honeymoon period at the start where things were promised, the squad was big and competition for places was rife, people were willing to give NOC a second chance and nobody really knew much about our new owner Danny Drew. Less than half way through the season things went sour, and now almost at the end the whole impression of the club is a shambles.

In that time we have learned that NOC hasn't changed one bit, still has a problem regarding personality clashes with players (and always the good ones), and can't manage for sh!t. As I said before, he doesn't know the difference between a tic-tac and a tactic. His football is utter rubbish. Absolutely useless. He's a butcher alright, that's for fcukin sure!

.

We have also learned that our chairman is a bit of a maverick, has no people skills and wouldn't know manners if they slapped him across the face. He may have business acumen and a nose for making money, but he needs to learn the ropes of running a football club by taking a back seat because he is out of his depth in football matters. His treatment of LFC supporters and certain players, especially Tom McGauley will not be forgotton. Him coming on these boards giving verbals, and then seeking the identities of posters at matches is both sad and pathetic and proves my point above perfectly. He'd do well now to disappear into the background and hand the chairmanship over to a real football man who knows his stuff, because otherwise attendances aren't going to get any better.

The whole Jamie Nolan thing has capped things off really. Fans have a right to jeer a player if they feel he is not putting in the effort. The player does not have a right to stick his fingers up at the fans and spit in their collective faces. The fans pay to watch Nolan and indirectly pay his wages. That's how football works. Nolan is paid to play, not to disrespect, insult or bite the hand that feeds him.

On the plus side I think Kieran Judge is one of the few people to come out with praise this season. He has done a fine job, and also assembled a very talanted U21 panel. He has also conducted himself very well throughout the season. It's guys like him that the club need. Bernard O'Neill has also improved the PR of the club, although it could be a lot better. But other than that, the whole thing stinks. I haven't been at the last few home games either, partly because I was away in Cyprus following Ireland, because of work, but also because like jebus I'm just turned off the whole thing. There are many more like me, so keep it up lads.....
