Kerry has one of the biggest soccer leagues in the country, outside Dublin. The Kerry and Mayo leagues are 2 major forces in the FAI and have been for years. Perhaps this is the reason the Gah types have assaulted them in such a manner?

Those who like playing or watching soccer have a right do so - but not on our property.

REally, so you're saying that televisions in GAA clubs are all switched off when soccer matches are on?

Childish and idiotic.

Instead of promoting both sports, they end up destroying each other.

Clearly the should realise Rugby is far better!

the owners are the clubs members, but you stated that soccer could not be watched in a GAA club. So you are the one denying GAA members the right to watch what they wish. Also by referring to us in the lower 26 as staters you are accepting partition and in turn referring to yourself as a happy subject of her Majesty.

"So you are the one denying GAA members the right to watch what they wish. "

When? Where? Please stick to facts.

"Also by referring to us in the lower 26 as staters you are accepting partition"

I more than accept it. I entirely approve of it - and want it extended.

"and in turn referring to yourself as a happy subject of her Majesty."

Not happy. I have not received compensation for the atrocities committed against me by the Prods. The Prods who committed atrocities against me have not been brought to trial and hanged.


P.S. The GAA has a right decide what takes place on GAA property.
