They are football facilities, thats why the GAA want them altered.

Where do the Kerry GAA get the idea that public property is GAA property?

The pitch in this instance is held in trust by the GAA for the community and Croke Park have 'instructed' the local club to annexe it for GAA use only. Are you seriously going to try and claim that if the GAA have always owned the pitch that they just let a local football club use it for free for 20 years? Pull the other one.

Between trying to get their grubby hands on Lansdowne Road, Abbotstown, Tallaght, Lusk and now this, there is a clear policy of liebestraum from the Gah blazers. Attempt to grab any land they can at no cost to the association. Is it 1950 again?

Hopefully the courts and local politicians stand up to these bullies and sporting fascists like they did in Tallaght

You folk tried to steal Croke Park from the GAA.

Mind your manners. Who gave you the right to decide what the GAA should do about anything?

Once again the difference between football and GAA are highlioghted. An nasty incident occurs at a soccer game - the club is banned. A GAA Club destroys a 20 year old soccer pitch and they are congratulated.

What a shower of sh1te!!!!
Why are you so vulgar? If you do not like the GAA, stay away from it.

Any comment on the topic in hand?

Yes, they have - frequently. But it was better than murdering GAA officials. Have you ever condemned the murder of GAA officials by Prods?

Fermanagh is not in the Free State yet you, a Stater, interfered in the internal affairs of the GAA in Fermanagh. Consistency does not seem to be your strong point.

Find me one example of it happening.

Of course I condemn the murder of GAA officials by the Loyalists. The fact that you even equate criticism of GAA policy with support for the UDA sums up how deranged you are.

I'm not engaging you anymore unless its in relation to the GAA in Kerry
