Hey thats not funny....for the sake of the League we need projects like Tallaght to go ahead to offer a better viewing facility for the supporters of eL.

Grab All Association, and they wonder how they got that nick name

Just more posturing and bluffing from the redneck bully boys.

Well if we're talking posturing and bluffing yourselves and the BSC would be grand champions...

Best of luck to the GAA

Shouldn't this be in the Shams forum or other sports(GAA) even?

Colm Keys in the Indo - is he paid by Danny Lynch or Tony O'Reilly? More lies and nonsense from a GAA media cheerleader. If it wasn't so pathetic it would be funny.
Is soother-throwing an Irish or foreign game?

From the Reds Independent forum

I think mark O'Neill Cummins summed it up perfectly:

"If South Dublin County Council were
building a house for a homeless family,
with public money, you wouldn't expect
the neighbours to take the council to
court for not letting them move in and
for not adding on a shed with room for
a pool table."

How can fans of an LoI team laugh at this. This issue should go beyond rivalries as it illustrates how the GAA and other oganisations think they can walk all over football clubs. Good luck Rovers!

I agree 100%. Sad, Sad people who would rather see the GAAAAA succeed ahead of Rovers.

Nice one - I was beginning to dispair about the mentality of fans of other EL clubs based on some of the other postings.

**pete** · 07/04/2006, 1:05 PM

I don't anyone delights in this as its just Pats fans trying to prevent themselves being moved to Tallaght.

Its in the interest of all eL clubs that Rovers get into Tallaght as it raises the standard of the league overall & might help other clubs get funding to their own stadiums.

The GAA are certainly unique in the world alright.

Anyone know of the legal details?

Certainly not excused, unless you are pleading insanity.
I don't see any basis for hilarity here. Some Pat's fans might have a rather short-sighted reason to celebrate, but the main thrust of this is a shameless attempt to keep football under the GAA boot. Not much to snort at there.

Edit: no doubt the cute hoors will find some way of making the taxpayer pay for their lawyers.

**WeAreRovers** · 07/04/2006, 1:33 PM

In fairness to Dodge he has his own agenda, as twisted as it is. If I was in Pats shoes I'd probably take the same ridiculous stance.

As for sligoman, it's folly of the highest order for any eL fan to assume that the GAA is only out to scupper Tallaght. They hate all of us equally.

My reason is very much a long term reason, and has been well documented here and elsewhere.

And on the broader topic, so what if a couple of people put club pettiness ahead of "Irish football as a whole"?

**Mr_T** · 07/04/2006, 2:09 PM

Sickening and cynical stuff from the South Dublin GAA.

Can't believe they won't let this go, seriously diminishing any shreds of respect I had for the organisation, and something I'llbe pointing out to any GAA mates who try to take high moral ground about Croke Park, or indeed anything.

Hope the courts back the minister and throw the b@stards out of court.

Tis a bigger issue than just a Rovers issue. The GAA are showing their true colours, they are anti-football (soccer!), pure and simple.

Of course if the GAA do bully their way into Tallaght, its only logical that all clubs will have the right to bully their way in wherever they like, so hows about this for a fixture list...

Cork City v Longford Town, Pairc Ui Chaoimh
Shelbourne v Bray Wanderers, Parnell Park
Limerick FC v Dundalk, Thomond Park
Linfield v Glentoran, Casement Park
Dublin City v UCD, Croke Park
