There are mods here? The only one I've seen is the guy who posts exclusively complaining about Delaney.Originally Posted by tetsujin1979

Perhaps you shoudl see a psychiatrist ?
Sounds like obsessive compulsive disorder to me.
The form has always been like that, people are just getting upset because Ireland lost.
If you removed all the pointless threads and posts you would be pretty much down to the ads.
The forum like our playing style is too inflexible we need to be able to adapt to different styles
with a more flexible approach.
The old style of rigidly enforced roles and discipline does not work in the modern game
the Spanish team are always changing shape and style.

Tricky, you could just gracefully accept that the constant thread hopping is annoying a lot of people and say fair enough. We'll all move on and everything will be grand.
"but was told in no uncertain terms to show up as instructed." that pretty much indicates he missed the wedding unless it stated otherwise.
I don't post often here, generally just read along, and I have to agree and say - as a complete neutral - that new threads for topics that already have established threads are really annoying and that t_c should take a back seat for a few days. If things continue as they are, foot.ie will descend to the lowest common denominator that seems to be the level of a lot of internet forums. We don't need a new thread for every bit of wild speculation.
And, folks, at least try to check your spelling and grammar and facts (last 8 in 2002 would have been nice, but it didn't happen) before you post, read your post once over before hitting "send" - after all, if your post shows that you put a bit of care into it, it's more likely other readers will take it seriously.
Yes but them we will have to stick with the same players and manager for the next 2,000,000 years!!!
First off there are no topics, topics have effectively been banned and threads have to be on players names or a few other
things which in themselves are not a topic rather a group of topics.
Fact is there are very few people who support you idea unless we are to believe the forum consists of a handful of people
(a damming incitement in itself).
The forum no longer has a "number of people viewing" a thread anymore, maybe because it is embarrassingly low number.
Unsurprisingly when the forum is totally unnavigable.
And as you hardly ever post here that does not give much validity to your view, which is not based on any valid argument
rather than on a number of logical fallacies.
Just because you are also wrong does not make an invalid view right.

And you have not even established most people agree with you, those who disagree are likely to have left the forum.Appeal to Belief is a fallacy that has this general pattern:
Most people believe that a claim, X, is true.
Therefore X is true.
I can't be expected t read ever post in every thread to see if a point has been made before.
That's just insane.
But clearly as you base your arguments on false logic there is little point discussing it with you or those of similar minds
You can't have a logical discussion with some who does not use logic.
Welcome to the madhouse p2011!
Post more often - you make sense to me.
A part of the madness is that members keep posting in the off the cuff threads and yet bemoan the thread overgrowth.
It sure is!!!!Though maybe T_C is being unbelievably clever here by stating that the people trying to block (dam) him from making new threads are leading him to make these angry replies (incitement). BOOM BOOM!!!!
Anyway, Im like the other poster, I dont post very much, but I agree with everything they outlined about the new thread creation craic. I guess that means the above quoted sh1te applies to me as well. See, there are quite a few people reading these forums regularly without posting regularly
Havin a weekend away is quite frankly,lettin ur team mates down!
My 2 cents: One of the reasons I use this forum is because it's relatively better organised than others and there aren't dozens of threads on the same thing or threads with quasi cryptic titles from attention seeking posters. If we're talking about Damien Duff then it makes sense to use the "Damien Duff" thread probably...
In my opinion, the forum has gone to pot over the last 7 days. That's my opinion. Seems simple enough and logic (or logical fallacy etc. etc.) sounds like way too big a word for it. Others seem to agree. And don't tell me or anyone else they don't have "validity" because they don't post that often, that's just plain unacceptable.
PS: I'm out of this discussion now. It's only wasting others' time and I think we're into the area of trolling at this stage.
Back on topic:
There should be a statue erected to the Duffer in Dublin if he does hang up the Ireland boots at the 100 mark. His attitude in Poland was A1 from start to finish. Pity he has had a relatively unfulfilled career. Would like to see more the team spread around the continent winning trophies rather than sitting out time at Newcastle and the like in England.
2 Premier League Titles, 2 League Cups, 1 Charity Shield, Europa Cup runner up with nearly 70 European performances would argue different.
Yes, all true and he has of course had a very fine career with hopefully more to come. However just as an example, he and Arjen Robben are of similar age and in their Chelsea days were evenly matched for much of it in terms of contribution. Since then Robben has won titles and cups in both Spain and Germany. Duff has not, I think he has never let us down in an Ireland shirt, but it would have been brilliant to see him have that type of club career also. He was good enough.
Twice World Cup player of the tournament, in his position.
No reason why he can't continue, Giggs has played 200 games since he was 33 and won 10 trophies. No signs of letting up either.
Mladen Petric has signed for Fulham, in theory he can play in Duffs position, but more likely (and his more orthodox position) the Croatian will be a striker, as they missed out on getting Pogrebnyak permanently.
Robben is 28; Duffer 33.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
