    Dunphy is an idiot and his opinions shoul be taken with a grain of salt. He is entertaining though and is still a far better pundit than the patronising morons who I'm forced to listen to on the English channels now I'm no longer living in the Emerald Isle.

The only person I've ever seen Humpty win an argument with is Bill O'Herlihy,and that's only because he shouts him down.

    P.S - you were spot on about the Panto though
    Two words!

    The impression I had at the time was that Giles had the intelligent analysis about Charlton and Dunphy did the tabloid version.

    Tell us how he was spot on about Charlton ? Only in Ireland would someone, after 50 years of failure by the national team, be vilified on TV by Messrs Dunphy, Giles and Drunkphy, despite getting the national team to 2 World Cups and an European Championship and for the two World Cups get through to the next round (something Scotland with all their talented players have never done) and be within a few minutes of a Euro Semi-Final only to be robbed by an offside goal.

    Dunphy - a snake in the grass, hopeless pundit, vindicate and tabloidian (if there is such a word and yet condemns the English tabloid press), a hypocrite, self-contradictory and supported the sale of Milltown, one of Ireland's premier soccer grounds because he was a friend of the Kilcoynes but loved by many of the Irish people as "a great laugh". Only in this country would such a wretch be tolerated.

    Don't get me started.....
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    Spot on and am worried and shocked that it has taken 2 pages before someone pointed this out. The vermin said Lucifer was a hero to Irish soccer.

    The only medal he won in football was with Rovers in 1978 and he is ashamed of it. What a complete muppet.

    The way he reverentially looks at Brady and Giles on tv is sad and pathetic.

    Completely wrong about traitor, the "establishment", writing for the common man when he's a millionaire etc etc etc.

    A parody of himself at this stage. Wants Stan sacked after 3 ****ing friendlies? Oh dear.

    The day this fool and Lucifer kicks the bucket will be an unending celebration for anyone who does actually care for Irish football. And that does not include clowns who wear premier**** tops.

    dunphy is a muppet , he had a huge role in preventing roy keane retruning to the irish team after saipan and again before kerrs first game , while everyone might laugh and enjoy his controversial views the fact is that i have lost respect for niall quinn for not taking dunphy up on what he said about him on live TV , if it was said about me i would have decked him and i think most posters here would have too.

    i have no respect for dunphy
    Was he crazy!! Yeah , in a very special way , an Irishman.
    I slept, and dreamed that life was Beauty;
    I woke, and found that life was Duty.

    Two lovely words to be sure, but you'll have to clarify for me. Whatever exchange I presume this to be a reference to between Dunphy and Brady I seem to have missed it. (And I still think both Brady and Giles are streets ahead of Dunphy in alalysis. All he does is take Giles points and repeat them, with added hysteria.)

    When you're stuck in the UK for 10 years with Townsend and McCoist or Alan Shearer, Mark Lawrenson & Lee Dixon (I'll exempt Hansen because I like him) you would be gratefull for every minute of Dunphy, Giles and Brady

    Dunphy is a WUM. (In fact he must be the supreme WUM given how he makes a substantial living out of it).
    Together with all our hearts.
