    I said what could be proved. YOU can't prove that there was corruption. Heck its why the tribunals were such a complete waste.
    More to fact.
    Why were some of the individuals they were investigating such a waste?
    Its only a chat, we ain't the world council.
    In 2000 the Women's Institute in Britain gave Tony Blair the slow hand clap to demonstrate their contempt.
    [COLOR="Red"]It was dignified, restrained and effective.[/COLOR]Doesn't Bertie deserve the same scorn. No shouting, no abuse, no agression just a relentless slow clap whenever he speaks in public would be enough to end that man's presidential fantasy.

    Given that he shafted them when they tried to build their own stadium.
    The hubris that was his own vanity project the Berti bowl.
    Why are they still sucking up?

    Has to be something to do with the fact they cant sell the 10 year tickets to finance Lansdown road. I'd say ahern is able to do duck all for them, but he is pretending he can in order to get a few freebies.

    Joe and John Delaney?
    Bernard O Byrne,
    Fran ********************in Rooney!!!!

    As for the ban. is that the best you can do?
    Of the four main Irish sports remind me which one is the only that is organised on a 26 county basis?

    The GAA stayed strong in the face of outrageous odds up North.
    What level of support did the brave boys of the FAI offer when Derry and Belfast Celtic before them were bullied into oblivion?

    Bunch of Skobes fratrernising with the High King of Skobes, quelle surprise.


    Do you have a link about Joe Delaney, am aware of the other eejits but not this guy, how could he pass the job to his son.
